A Floral Tag/SOTD(Scent of The Day)🍂🍁✨🤎
A Floral Tag/SOTD(Scent of The Day):
• @soldejaneiro Sol de Janeiro’s Cheirosa 76 perfume mist - does not last very long but smells really nice, 6/10 for me🫣🙃
• @lushcosmetics Lush’s Tank Battle Eau de Parfum - smells incredible! Lasts a long time
(8+ hours😳🤩) and has a hint of bubblegum 🍬 in it! 20/10 for me!
I wanted to put together an end of summer, beginning of autumn seasonal scent of the day for myself and for you to enjoy (or at least try! I’m sure both are always available to sample at your local retailers)
Anyway, Happy Friday🍂✨🤎
Hey perfume lovers! Building on my SOTD picks, I wanted to dive deeper into finding that perfect scent, especially if you're a tween, a young girl, or just someone looking for a fun, high-quality fragrance. It’s not always easy to choose with so many options out there, but I've got some tips and thoughts that might help! First up, 'tween perfumes' and 'pink perfumes for girls' often go hand-in-hand. What exactly defines them? Usually, these are lighter, more playful scents. Think fruity notes like berries, apple, or peach, combined with sweet touches of vanilla, marshmallow, or cotton candy. Light florals like peony or jasmine can also make an appearance. Brands like Ariana Grande, Sol de Janeiro (which I mentioned!), and even some Bath & Body Works mists are super popular in this category. They’re designed to be fun and approachable, rather than super complex or heavy. When choosing, look for 'Eau de Toilette' (EDT) or 'body mist' options, as they tend to be lighter and less intense than 'Eau de Parfum' (EDP), which is perfect for a younger crowd or for daily wear. And yes, a lot of these come in adorable pink bottles! It’s all about a vibrant, youthful vibe. Now, let's talk about 'perfume quality' and how to make your scent last. My experience with Sol de Janeiro's mist was that it smelled amazing but faded quickly. That's common with mists! For better longevity, an EDP (Eau de Parfum) is usually your best bet. These have a higher concentration of fragrance oils, meaning they stick around longer. Lush's Tank Battle, for example, is an EDP and really impressed me with its 8+ hour wear! To boost any perfume's staying power, try applying it to hydrated skin – a quick layer of unscented lotion before spraying can work wonders. Also, target pulse points like your wrists, neck, and behind your ears, as the warmth helps diffuse the scent throughout the day. Don't rub your wrists together after spraying; it can break down the fragrance molecules! What about 'mcbling perfumes'? This trend is so much fun and brings back major Y2K vibes! Think early 2000s glam, bold, and a bit over-the-top. The perfumes associated with this aesthetic are often sweet, juicy, and unapologetically loud. Imagine scents that smell like bubblegum, sugary fruits, or even a hint of something metallic or plasticky in a cool way. Juicy Couture's Viva La Juicy is a classic example that totally fits the mcbling vibe – it's sweet, floral, and comes in a bottle with a big bow. Britney Spears' Fantasy line also comes to mind with its sweet, cupcake-like notes and dazzling bottles. It's about making a statement and embracing that playful, maximalist energy. Finally, for those looking for 'top perfumes for women' in a broader sense, it really depends on your personal preference, but there are some universally loved categories. Do you like fresh and clean scents, warm and spicy, classic florals, or gourmand (foodie) fragrances? For a classic floral, think roses or jasmine. For something warm, vanilla and amber are popular. If you're into fresh scents, citrus or aquatic notes are key. My best advice is to sample! Go to your local Sephora, Ulta, or department store and try a few on your skin. What smells great on a blotter might smell different on you due to your unique body chemistry. Don't rush the decision; wear it for a few hours to see how it develops. And remember, the 'best' perfume is always the one that makes you feel amazing!
