Ariana Grande God Is A Woman Eau de Parfum

Most Helpful Positive Review

Not the strongest but very pleasant

I bought this because I was looking for an everyday perfume that wouldn't break the bank, could be applied liberally throughout the day if needed, and had more responsibly sourced ingredients than most perfumes. This fragrance is indeed light, it's no Chanel, and needs a few more sprays than just pu...lse points. However, it's a very clean and refreshing scent. It's not overbearing at all. I'm not concerned with someone being able to smell me from 50 ft away when I'm out running errands or sitting at a computer all day. Pear-heavy with a hint of a more masculine musk smell while being a tiny bit sweet. The initial application is very pear-y but it dries down to a delicate, almost spiced fruit, clean, barely sweet scent. Makes me smell like a woman with her life together, but is still grounded. Being in my 30s I was apprehensive of buying an Ariana Grande perfume, since she's really into those sickeningly sweet scents, but I really enjoy this one. I tried Ellis Brooklyn Sweet before this (similar scent profile but way different smells) and it definitely lives up to its name, got returned almost immediately. I didn't keep the chunky plastic holder this one came in. I like the sleek simplicity of the bottle as it is. The holder would have just taken up space and has been recycled. My signature for a while has been Burberry Her. I use YSL Black Opium on date night. I wear Burberry Her London Dream occasionally layered with Her. I won't be purchasing these anymore though unless they start being more conscious about their ingredients. Let's change the supply by demanding better production. If you have any of these already you'll probably like GIAW. I'm definitely more of a gourmand than a floral woman, but this really hit the mark for me. I applaud Ariana for wanting to build better perfumes, trying to raise the bar and bring fragrance production into the 21st century. Y'all should look up how fragrance ingredients, such as musk, are traditionally acquired and how many perfumes aren't vegan and cruelty free. =)
