Looking for a affordable summer fragrance.

I am looking for a summer fragrance that won’t break the bank maybe something from bath and body works. I want something that smells like fresh summer beach vibes. Right now I am using Versace Dylan purple but I want something that screams summer.

Re: Looking for a affordable summer fragrance.

@ThatGirlMadi I love a good beachy scent.  Sol de Janeiro makes some great ones, I also love Bobbi Brown Beach Fragrance 1.7 oz/ 50 mL  ,  Maison Margiela 'REPLICA' Beach Walk Eau de Toilette with Coconut Milk & Musk  for a coconutty beach scent.  The NEST New York Sunkissed Hibiscus Eau de Parfum 1.7 oz/ 50 mL  is lovely for a beachy with a touch of floral.  And Maison Margiela REPLICA’ Sailing Day Eau de Toilette with Aquatic Accord & Iris  or SKYLAR Salt Air Eau De Parfum 1.7 oz/ 50 mL  (a less spendy brand that still offers some great scents) are great for an aquatic, fresh sea air feeling.

If you're looking for some less expensive options to getting the travel size items available at Sephora, I also really like Op Summer Breeze Eau de Parfum, and at Bath and Body Works, I just picked up two sizes of the Waikiki Beach Coconut scent that gives me the same coconutty beach feels as the more expensive SDJ and MM fragrances. 

Good luck on your hunt for the best fragrance for you!

SOL DE JANEIRO 😉

Re: Looking for a affordable summer fragrance.

I love sol de Janeiro I see my friends have it but I'm to poor to buy it sadly 

Re: Looking for a affordable summer fragrance.

Sol de Janeiro's Carioca Crush and Clean Reserve Skin are both amazing for summer, they do fade a little quicker than most, but they layer well together and with so many other fragrances. 

Re: Looking for a affordable summer fragrance.

Have you ever tried the Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue?? This was the first designer perfume I bought 2years ago and I'm still in love with it now. It has a very light citrus smell. Whenever i wear it, I feel like its peak summer with slushies, carnivals, and late night car rides with the window down. It's tangy and the ages into a a sweeter smell as the day goes on.

Re: Looking for a affordable summer fragrance.

@ThatGirlMadiBath and Body Works At the Beach is a great scent.

@SportyGirly125 I like At the beach bbw, but how is the lasting power?

Re: Looking for a affordable summer fragrance.

@ThatGirlMadi I layer it with the body cream so the scent last longer.
