Electric Agent Provocateur for women

Fresh squeezed lemon and lemon drop candies! I love this fresh lemony fragrance in summer. Hint of bergamot and fig tree green freshness deliver that green crispness and balances this fragrance from becoming too sweet. Perfect hot day summer fragrance. The dry down to a softer sandalwood balances the sharpness of citrus. Price point is great. Longevity is decent for a citrus scent. I would wear this on those very hot days when citrus freshness or aquatic clean are the top choices for a summer fragrance.

Very disappointing . . . fleeting furniture polish without the oomph that I love in the others like the original and Petale Noir.

Limoncello minus the alcohol. A creamier DG Light Blue. I like it. The figs reminds me the woody/fruity scent in Mugler Womanity (the old version). For the price it's very well-done and does not smell as aggressive and synthetic as other citrus/lemon fragrance on the market these days. Longevity is not great on me but most fruity scent don't last on my skin. Great scent for super hot Summer days. For 20$ grad a bottle.

I once parted ways with this fragrance but decided to retrieve it and am glad I did.

This is not only a wonderfully refreshing citrus and fig concoction but has a super nice, almost incense-y sandalwood undertone with the smallest hint of musky amber.

Not designed to be a loud scent, it sits close to the skin and smells most appealing on clothing.

For a 25 dollar perfume I say 2 thumbs up.

The first couple of minutes it's bergamot with sandalwood base - woody, bitter and tart. In just 15 minutes, the bergamot turns into a candied lemon, it gets much more sweeter and sugary. Compared to cosmic that is more like a sweet mojito, this one is iced green tea with bergamot, which you drink somewhere in the middle of a fig plantation on a hot summer day.

This is a perfume is great for those who love tart citrus without too much sweetness. I like this one a little less than cosmic, but I still think it's a good perfume for hot weather.

This is such a strange perfume, very unique! I can't say that I love it on its own because the lime is SUPER LOUD and its a bit too much for me. HOWEVER, I found an amazing layering combo that tones it down. If you have Reble'fleur by Rihanna, TRY IT!!! It is sooo nice. I smell like sweet fruits, citrus, coconut and fig. Absolutely delicious and unique, I highly recommend.

If you want a refreshing citrus fragrance that has great staying power, check out Electric. Typically citrus scents tend to fade very quickly, but not this one. There aren't any florals in Electric and the fig notes come through all the way to the end. The lime is definitely the strongest of the three citrus notes and pairs extremely well with the creamy fig. It's absolutely divine. It can get a bit too sharp at times which is why I avoid spraying it on my chest and neck. Instead I focus on my wrist and the back of my clothing.

It smells like green grass plus lemon. Fresh but more like an air freshener.

i smell yummy vanilla citrus, Very long lasting.

Two Words – Lemon Pledge.

Nearly a dead ringer for O de Lancome 1969 version with its fresh citrus scent. Refreshing summer fragrance, not cloying or sweet and well balanced with the fig and amber. If only the hint of lily of the valley and the green freshness of rosemary and moss were there to enhance the citrus as in O de Lancome, it would be carbon copy, but close enough and at a really great price. A great summer fragrance find that can be lavishly applied. I will add this one to my permanent collection. Love it!

It's a weird beast definitely. It's refreshing but
not sweet, it's clean and dirty at the same time. I understand this frag is borderline Lemon wood polish for a number of people so blind buying it is a big no-no. Moderate projection and longevity. For those who love citrus but are tired smelling like lemonade.

The heavy blast of citrus smells like cleaning products, Lemon Pledge or Lemon PineSol, it's not juicy or fresh citrus, it's chemical, dry, astringent citrus. Very disappointing. The dry down is better as I love the fig making an appearance but it's not worth the opening. Perfectly unisex. Ugh, another blind-buy fail!

I LOVE this. I love citrus scents in general, but this one especially. What's best is there's no rose.

Very unique! Lemony lemony lemony goodness! I can’t wait to mix it with other scents. I mostly got it for the promise of a prominent citrus note and it did not disappoint me.

I am afraid I’ll be getting more agent provocateur frags. I shall do my best to practice self-restraint though. The perfume addict in me is hooked!

Oh my gosh this is easily one of my best blind buys ever!!!! I get citric creamy green figgy happytime. Lasts for hours. Ridiculously good value. Super cute bottle too. Looks like an alien egg. 😍

Sharp lime and fig at first, niche-like/unisex. After an hour or so the initial sharpness smooths out nicely, and it's a fairly pleasant scent. The notes aren't as articulated as some might like, but it's simple so you get that you're smelling a bit of fig, sandalwood, etc. I'm just not much of a citrus or fig fan, though, and the sandalwood is more of a supporting note, though it's quite obvious (most likely all aroma chemicals, of course). Excellent at current prices, but due to the simplicity and my preferences, I doubt I would wear it often.

I bought a tester bottle out of curiosity. It reminds me too much of Pledge furniture cleaner. I’m still waiting to see if it changes, but I’ve been wearing it on skin and clothes for almost a hour. This is how I felt about D&G Light Blue. I may just have a personal struggle with citrus fragrances. I can use it as a room spray when cleaning. Fresh lime pick-me-up.

I agree with the reviewer saying this smelled niche, if by niche we refer to more unique scents that are not intended to be mass crowd pleases. I blind bought this becasue I love citrus in perfumes and was curious about the combination with fig. My first impression was that it's too bitter and green in the opening with hints of citrus - in guessing it's the fig tree. But the super bitter note is only for a few minutes, and then a sweet creaminess appears and I love it! It's so addictive! Such good value, too. I also own lace noir and it's also amazing (if you love patchouli). I have previously overlooked agent provocateur but am now looking to get more, the bottles are gorgeous too!

Edit: can't say how this will smell in summer, but my favorite way to wear this is when there is a nice breeze outside, the scent trail is amazing!!

This is a under the radar gem that cost's $20 US. This is a Maison Lancome Figues & Agrumes dupe. Probably a Dyptique Philosykos dupe as they have similar note break down. When I saw I could get this same fresh scent at a fraction of the price I had to try it and it is really good. It's so close to F&A the only difference is this has way more lime citrus in the opening so it's extremely refreshing even way more than my Dolce & Gabbana Italian Zest that has a bunch of lemon in it..this packs a punch! And the green woody grassy fig notes are not as in the forefront as F&G. But I will say that I love that about F&G because I love green scents and F&G is denser and stays consistent all the way through. These fragrances both last and are so enjoyable but I think most would lean more to Agent Provocateur's Electric because it's not as punch you in the face green as that can be a note not everyone loves. As electric dries down you smell more of the green fig leaves and woodiness. The creaminess of the fig is there but not as much as in Figues & Agrumes where it feels slightly like it has coconuts in it. So there are little different nuances in this but they are almost like 95% dupes for sure. Do not miss out on this. I love this and its worth a buy and perfect for this time of the year in spring! I may have to get back up's it's that refreshing and such a good citrus scent.

I picked this up for $20 CAD from Rexall as a blind buy. The only experience I have with AP scents is Fatale Intense which is an amazing fragrance that I adore. This scent however falls very flat and I do not like it. It's a little too zesty and masculine for my taste. It smells sort of like a floor cleaner similar to Pine-Sol. I refused to spritz this on my skin and instead sprayed it on a tissue so I cannot attest to how long it may last and what the sillage would be. The citrus is extremely sharp and sour. Would work well as a room refresher but as a perfume? No thanks.

Crisp, bright and fresh with lasting power for at least six hours. I get sage underneath the lime and lemon, then the amber and sandalwood dry down at the end. This scent is cheerful, effervescent and relaxing at the same time. Like a sparkling cocktail. I couldn't detect the fig. All the same, this was a lovely blind buy that I can't wait to wear this summer. Reminds me of Gypsy Water. I love AP’s bottle and its clear resemblance to a grenade, complete with a “pin” you pull instead of a cap.

This was a blind buy. Reminds me of grapefruit zest?? Is smells veryy familiar. However it was too powdery for me which didn't compliment the citrus note too well. The dry down is less powdery and more enjoyable. It's not sweet AT ALL if you're used to other AP scents. A decent summer smell but I had to pass on this one.

Ooooh this is very different....like Mugler Alien vibe different....will definitely have the passerby confused but it's an intoxicating scent , memorizing , like the cheshire cat from Alice in Wonderland big smile and big green eyes kinda deal. Mix it with 7 virtues vanilla woods and BAM JUST WOWZA

It's very fresh, and I feel like it's a unique citrus, and not just a sweet zingy blast...

This is what bright smells like.

And it sort of reminds me of the smell of a nice sushi bar- NOT fishy, whatsoever- I don't think that good sushi smells like fish. I think it's ginger?

Ginger is not listed as a note, but maybe that's the fig that's crossing my wires?

I smell a similarity to Mugler's Womanity, so it might be the fig, but it's less shrieky.

Womanity is a masterpiece if I wear it behind my knees and ankles ( even if sprayed heavily,) and a nightmare if it's sprayed any higher.

Electric is much more subtle, and not nearly powerful enough to require any such specific guidelines, but it bears a good enough resemblance to Womanity that I'm willing to love it. I sprayed it all over my sweater this morning and I'm really happy about it.

I kept picking up a coconut note at first- there's no coconut mentioned...but I think fig just comes across oddly to me?

I think it's the most unique scent from Agent Provocateur I've smelled so far.

I'm happy with this blind buy! The more I smell it the more I like it! This is another one that would smell fantastic on a man or a woman, of any age.

Great cheapie for lovers of fig and citrus. It reminds me a little of a lime soft drink like Sprite or Sierra Mist, or perhaps a lime margarita with sugar around the rim. This is more of a green fig/fig leaf rather than a milky coconut-like fig. Fizzy, sweet, but refreshing on a hot day. It doesn’t project too much and lasting power is about 3-4 hours on skin. All in all, I’m happy!

lime citrus with some fig scent. Not groundbreaking but safe and fresh for hot days. Longevity is less than moderate. It's a decent deal as the price is affordable. Perfect for the gym or for a walk in a hot day.

FIG AND LIME! Zero projection which is such a shame. Nevertheless, this is a refreshing summertime tonic. Longevity is on par with Philosykos, so not great. If you love figs then you should definitely get this.

June 2020

This is such a bargain right now, a safe blind buy, and perfect for summer.

I dont like the packaging but I have to admit that it's so very apropo. The yellow-green represents the Lime in it, the purple font reps the Fig, which are pretty much the only two notes I can smell. It's also in the shape of a BOMB and yes, it IS a Lime-Fig Bomb!

You have to really like Lime to love this. I prefer Lemon Verbena so it's not perfect to me but it's still in heavy rotation. As a EDP, it last a hella lot longer than all the citrus colognes that I have: more than 6 hours if I spray 3 times on same spot.

I wanted to love this one. I've found it almost impossible to find a citrus scent that has any longevity so maybe my hopes were riding too high. Unfortunately after the first moments of bliss, there's a cloying creamy yuck note that becomes all pervasive and I cannot get beyond it. It might be the "figs" (fruit and wood) . . . maybe, probably? I'm not a fan of gooey food smelling perfumes, and the notion if wearing something 'milky" is too maternal for me.
YMMV

This is hands down the most beautiful citrus fragrance I've ever smelled (yes, it beats light blue by miles - and I love light blue).

It's an unbelievable bargain and you sure do get your moneys worth! I'm pretty sure it's discontinued but is still to be found on ebay etc. for a ridiculous low price for a 100ml bottle. Go grab one!

Its lack of popularity is a true mystery to me, but looking at its sisters (the sultry, sexy, smoky perfumes from the same brand) I can understand why this one is a bit of an outsider. But like all outsiders, it has its very own shine - and does this shine!

It's so niche that it doesn't get any more niche than this for a citrus scent. It's sparkly citrus, bitter and sweet at the very same time. It's simply amazing. Expensive lemonade and even better!

Picture this:

You are on a long get-away at the mediterranean sea in a small, cozy town with the person you love. It's hard to tell what time of the day it is, cause the sun is high all day and the warm breeze is lightly moving your hair as you stand in a beautiful light outfit on the balcony with a sea view. You are surrounded by purple and fuchsia coloured flowers. It's the most beautiful scenerie and like in a movie. The days are lazy, you are carefree and all you want is for this moment to last forever.


That's where this perfume takes me.

I've stocked up with 4 bottles. I LOVE this!

Such a happy scent, everytime I smell my arm i imagine someone smiling at me! Initial spray is like a bright summer morning with lemonade at a garden, and then the drydown is calm so it brings me images of flowing white/yellow curtains in a cool shady room during a warm afternoon. The first few minutes it reminds me of Something Blue by Oscar De La Renta, must be the citrus and bergamot, but with intense lime and some bitterness, not as dry or floral as Something Blue. To me, a lover of white florals and musk but also woody scents, this is the woody version of Something Blue(which has musk). It stays sour but the sandalwood, the amber and the fig change it to a green, bitter-sweet, woody scent, very calming. Now I gotta own more of this brand.

Love at the first sight!
Beautiful, fresh, crispy and cheerful juice — despite the fact that I am not a citrus fan. I’m getting 50 % of Eau De Cologne—ish but naturalistic lemon peel and 50 % of muted but recognizable fig and fig tree. Linear development, moderate longevity and soft silage. Tom Ford —esque (turquoise bottles) and Atelier Cologne — ish vibes, without the undertones. Pleasantly surprised by the unusual for AP line and mass market scent.
Great unisex and summer acquisition.

Electric is a long lasting, milky fig emboldened by a bright infusion of fresh lime and I love it! After about 30 minutes on my skin, the initial zesty acidity of lime fades just a bit while the fig note becomes less milky and more "figgy". I think lime clarifies and amplifies fig in Electric in much the same way squeezing a wedge of lime over certain foods enhances those dishes, sometimes lifting them from good to great. Such is the case here.

I don't own many linear fragrances so the first couple of times I wore Electric I was prepared for the blend I loved at first sniff to fade and morph into something else, leaving me with a disappointing dry down. Like when you meet a delightful person at the start of a party but watch them drink so much they turn into someone you hope never again to encounter. I'm pleased to report that didn't happen with Electric: Miss Fig leaves the party hours later as sober, fresh and delightful as when she first arrived.

Discontinued already, no doubt because it's so very different from most AP fragrances, excepting Cosmic (which is also discontinued), 100ml bottles of Electric are currently available for less than $22.00 USD on-line. For lovers of fig, IMO, it's a "must have". Electric is THE BEST and least expensive blind buy I made in 2019. And yes, I bought a back-up!

The citrus fades away very quick and the fig woody notes stays on my skin more than 8 hours with decent projection. It reminds me of the zara teawood and zare ceder wood.

Finally it arrived! Got it pretty cheap from USA and can say Bravo AP! Seems it something very different for AP, as gtabasso mentioned below - no rose. If they named it AP Cologne, it would not be mistaken. It definitely has this cologne idea.

I agree it is lime and bergamot central with some sweetness, but not a girlish sweetness, more like fig leave sweetness, completely unisex.

I am going to use it this summer! I also want to know the nose behind it, it would be great to know as it is a really good one

PS: after wearing it for couple of days I did it’s not really something WOW. But wearable and summery. Probably for this price you can find something a bit of better quality, though bottle is amazing as usual

PPS: now I realized what it smells, it is lemon ice-creme with figs. 3 notes: lemon, milk and fig. So its eaudecolonial first impression is misguiding. The bottle has very accurate color message of the fragrance. Acid yellow, milky white with icy sparks and fig purple.

PPPS: tired of it because of too much ambroxan. Not as much as in Cosmic, but still a bit too heavy. Now I perceive it as a synthetic lemony detergent

PPPPS: It got almost impossible to wear for me due to the ambroxan. Also it leaves slightly oily layer after spraying. However: it is so different from all other existing perfumes, that I would really recommend everyone to test. Its a new experience in perfumery. Not sure that even any niche went that far with the bravery of this fragrance. Same relates to AP Cosmic.

God, this is good. This is really, really good. Basically, Electric smells like lime lemonade with a little bit of brown cane sugar. Then, after this lovely lemonane beginning, you can definitely smell some creamy, smooth sandalwood and milky, green figs. It's definitely not a cologne perfume. Really wonderful summer scent. I would say, that Electric smells pretty niche. Love it.

So glad that I waited for this to be available in the States. This is lime central. But not a bitter zesty citrus, more of a lime PEZ. This has mainly lime with some lemon, lots of sugared sweetness, some bergamot. No fruity fig, sandalwood or amber that I detect in the top but then as it dries down, sandalwood is present. In the top, there was a burst that reminded me of vetiver or petitgrain but that quickly faded. Probably the bergamot. Very pretty for summer and different than all the other citrus frags out there. I wish there was some fig present with the citrus. There might be a hint of it in the base if I stretch my imagination. It was pretty shocking to find an AP fragrance with no rose in it.
