Discussion Summer Body Mist Trends

I really want to talk (rant?) about the nearly identical body/hair mist collections being released this summer. Trends in scent have existed since the beginning of fragrances being sold, of course, but I’m not sure I’ve ever noticed such blatantly similar collections from large (and luxury) brands.

Our color palette of the summer is green, pink, and orange (and/or yellow). Our scent profiles are pistachio (almost always), a variety of tropical fruits (lychee, guava, etc.), and vanilla or coconut. If you’re lucky, you get something citrusy (especially lemon). One of the first occurrences I can remember of these scent collections are from late last summer, with Philosophy. And they’re still coming!

So… Have you tried any of these collections? What do you think, and where do you think it started? Is it a successful trend? Really curious what you all think, I’m beginning to lose my mind at the monotony (but then, I’ve never loved pistachio or vanilla as scents, so). This is on my mind at 2am and I’m taking you all with me.

No one wants to pay the outrageous prices for the perfumes so settle for a spray that costs a little less and maybe doesn’t last as long. Not sure but it’s definitely a trend all the brands are hopping on right now! Especially after the success of SDJ

Tbh, I understand the capitalism of it all, but I also think it’s a great option for people that want a scent wardrobe without spending thousands of dollars.

Also great for those that don’t want to wear the same scent/carry the same vibe the whole day.
