Body sprays are often our first entrance into the world of fragrance, as they are what we gravitate towards in the drugstore as teenagers. However, body sprays aren't just for teens. According to FVITH, body sprays have more water in their formula than parfums. The Perfume Shop recommends body sprays for both men and women who are searching for a light and airy scent that can be sprayed on easily. And while a body spray will not last nearly as long as a parfum, it is often much, much more affordable, making it easier to spritz throughout the day without worrying about wasting the product. If you want your scent to carry you through morning and night, consider spraying it directly on your clothing rather than on your skin.
Women's Wear Daily recommends a few different body sprays for different needs. If you are on a budget, consider trying the Pacifica Moon Hair and Body Mist. With notes of vanilla and almond, it's the perfect spray for that cozy winter feeling under $15. If you want something fruity, they suggest the Sol De Janeiro Brazilian Crush Cheirosa '68 Beija Flor™ Hair & Body Fragrance Mist, or the Tom Ford Private Blend Neroli Portofino All Over Body Spray if you prefer a citrus scent.
Finding the right scent for you can be challenging, but learning what you are looking for can really help you choose. And if all else fails, take a look at the perfumes that people loved this past year for some inspiration.
