About Athena
Athena by Maison Alhambra is a floral fragrance for women. This creation, launched in 2025, unfolds an olfactory pyramid where the top notes combine the freshness of tangerine, the spice of pink pepper, and the elegance of bergamot. The heart of the composition reveals the sensuality of sambac jasmine, the exotic aroma of ylang-ylang, and the delicacy of the lily of the valley. Finally, the base notes land with the warmth of vanilla, the soft wood of sandalwood, and the depth of patchouli.

Athena is an absolute beast, what a wonder! Beautiful vanilla with a fresh twist, incredible longevity and huge projection. And the price? Another absolute bargain. 😉 Perfect for autumn and winter, a total must-have. 👌

I love it, it smells almost identical to Burberry Goddess and I’m delighted. I was worried about the longevity, but I’ve worn it for over eight hours and it’s brand new. What a surprise!

I’m head over heels! If it lasted longer it would be a global hit, but for the price it’s a ten out of ten. I’ve already bought a refill because you need to apply plenty, but it’s delicious.

It smells like Burberry Goddess but with a citrus and fruity opening. It smells lovely but doesn’t last at all, not even five minutes on skin or clothes, and I’m generous. I’ll use it as a body spray.

Very pretty, starting with vanilla and patchouli with an intense but lovely jasmine. It’s strong and sweet for an hour, then fades and becomes more citrusy and vanilla-like. The sandalwood and pepper aren’t noticeable. It’s delicious while it lasts, so for the ridiculous price you just reapply. I’m letting it settle to see if it improves. If you like sweet scents, buy blind.

It resembles Burberry Goddess but with a more citrusy twist at the beginning. The first hours highlight the orange, fresh and juicy, mixed with the warm sweetness of vanilla. It doesn’t last as long as the original, so I recommend applying generously and especially on clothes to make it more noticeable. It’s a pleasant and gourmand perfume, where sweet orange and creamy vanilla create a feminine, enveloping and easy-to-enjoy fragrance.

It resembles Burberry Goddess but with a citrus twist at the start. For the first few hours you notice the orange, fresh and juicy, mixed with the warm sweetness of vanilla. It doesn’t last as long as the original, so apply well and on clothes to make it last longer. It’s a pleasant gourmand scent, sweet orange with creamy vanilla, feminine, enveloping and easy to wear.

Maison Alhambra’s Athena wraps you in citrus, flowers and sweetness. It opens with spicy pink pepper and the freshness of orange and bergamot. The heart is floral with jasmine and ylang-ylang, very feminine and elegant. The base is warm with vanilla, sandalwood and patchouli, super comfortable. Ideal for everyday wear, spring and summer. It’s versatile; although sweet, the pepper and citrus make it perfect for the office or casual plans. For a confident woman with classic and elegant style.

Soft, vanilla and floral, but I find it a bit simple. It’s light and ethereal, good value for the price, but sometimes it smells like yellow or childish cologne. It’s classic and feminine, but not elegant or exclusive. I’ll try the original; perhaps the DNA is more enchanting or simply this one is uninteresting. Nevertheless, top quality, ten out of ten longevity and an incredible price.

Good value for money, buy blind. Simple and pretty bottle, good atomiser. I like it because I don’t like the typical excessive gold found on Arabic perfumes. Longevity is four hours on skin, low sillage, lasts a bit longer on clothes. It starts herbal, then the vanilla takes over. It’s a sophisticated and elegant vanilla, sweet but not cloying. Smells good on anyone, classy and elegant style, perfect for the day or formal occasions.

Soft, vanilla and floral, but I find it a bit simple. It’s light and ethereal, very long-lasting for the price, but for my DNA profile it sometimes smells like a childish cologne (those typical yellow bottles). It’s classic and feminine, but not elegant or exclusive. I thought the hype around the original would make this DNA more charming; perhaps it falls short or simply doesn’t work for me. Still, the quality is top-notch, longevity is 10/10, and the price is incredible.

Good value for money. I bought it blind and have no regrets: simple yet pretty bottle, decent atomiser. It suits me because I detest the typical gaudy gold packaging of Arab perfumes; this strikes a perfect balance. Lasts about four hours on skin, with a low sillage, though it lingers slightly more on clothes. Opens herbal but dries down to a sophisticated, elegant vanilla: sweet without being cloying. Smells like something anyone would like; classy and elegant, perfect for everyday wear, work, or formal events.
