I love the beach and want to smell like it!

I love everything Beach from the actual Beach to perfumes, body butters etc.  I do have some I enjoy but I'm always willing to try something new but with so many out there, I would like to know what everyone's favorite Beach scents is before I spend my money just hoping. Thank you!

Re: I love the beach and want to smell like it!

@klmitchell I’m in agreement with Replica Beach Walk and Sol de Janeiro Bum Bum Cream for sure. But I also want to give another vote to the one @bakeamuffin mentioned because it’s completely lovely, too: TOM FORD - Soleil Blanc. I got a sample and really want to buy a mini now 😊

For me it's  !Sol de Janeiro Brazilian Crush Cheirosa ’62 Bum Bum Hair & Body Fragrance Mist 8.1 oz/ 240 mL

 

I am originally from Rio de Janeiro and that fragrance instantly transports me to the days I used to surf and then lay on the sand. Salty skin, sunscreen, hot sand and sandalwood. 

 

Some people make a living by walking up and down the sand selling things, one man sold sandalwood in little bags and the scent would be carried by the wind, so I always knew he was coming.

 

Re: I love the beach and want to smell like it!

+500. I love smelling like a tropical paradise, but only Sol de Janeiro Brazilian Bum Bum Visibly Firming Refillable Body Cream 8.1 oz/ 240 mL and Sol de Janeiro Brazilian Crush Cheirosa ’62 Bum Bum Hair & Body Fragrance Mist 8.1 oz/ 240 mL really do it for me. They just smell like warm, sun-kissed skin.

 

I know that Maison Margiela 'REPLICA' Beach Walk 3.4 oz/ 100 mL eau de toilette spray and Bobbi Brown Beach Fragrance 1.7 oz/ 50 mL both have a lot of fans but, for some reason, my nose just isn't capable of smelling it?? They dry down to such a powdery scent, and I desperately wish I could smell what other people do, but I just don't!

 

I shared this with a Sephora fragrances rep, and she suggested PINROSE - Sun Saint, which definitely came a lot closer to the smell I wanted. Still not quite right, though. Urban Decay's limited-edition goNaked oil came closer still, but it's maybe too floral, even.

 

So I guess I'm satisfied with Sol de Janeiro's delicious-tasting products. I just wish I could find the right combination of layering fragrances that would prolong that coconut-and-sea-salt scent even longer.

that sounds like a great memory! I think I've looked at that before and read it and was curious. so now it sounds like something I might try. Thank you very much!

No problem -  I hope you like it ❤️

Re: I love the beach and want to smell like it!

Replica beach walk, hands down! 😄 TF Soleil Blanc is a close second, but it doesn’t smell as natural as beach walk does to me @klmitchell

 

I’ve been to the Florida coast once a child, and Beach Walk perfume pulled back all thoes memories, it’s so on point. 🏖 

Re: I love the beach and want to smell like it!

@bakeamuffin I too love Replica Beach Walk - the only downside for me is that the scent doesn't last long.  I wish it was a perfume vs. eau de toilette

I haven't heard it beachwalk before so I'll have to check that out. thank you very much for letting me know!

Re: I love the beach and want to smell like it!

@klmitchell Have you smelled "Beach" from Bobbi Brown or "Beach Walk" from Replica?

the person above you actually said the exact to you said so that tells me a lot! Thank you very much!

Re: I love the beach and want to smell like it!

I second beach from Bobbi Brown!

Re: I love the beach and want to smell like it!

You have to try Bath and Body Works At the Beach and In the Sun.  It smells so amazing.  I have the fragrance and the body cream.  Also try the Sol De Janeiro Brazillian Bum Bum Cream.

I haven't been a bath and body work in a long time and yo...

I haven't been a bath and body work in a long time and you see you something that I don't remember the name of so this must be something new since I've been there. do you know I actually have the bum bum cream as a sample to my order. so I guess that tells me I'm really going to like it. Thank you!

Re: I love the beach and want to smell like it!

Bum bum cream!! 🙌🏻 Great suggestion @SportyGirly125! That pistachio and Carmel scent is literally to die for! I have the body wash and have gone through a few of the tubs of the cream this summer ☺️

I have the bum bum cream as a sample on my order so you're not the first one to mention that one. I'm happy I put it on there. I remember reading something about pistachio and caramel so it must have been what you're talking about but I wasn't sure what pistachio would smell like. thank you for the information!

Re: I love the beach and want to smell like it!

Brazilian Bum Bum....  amazing smell.  I stopped wearing perfume and now only use the body wash, the lotion and the body spray.  Cheaper and everyone always comments on how great I smell.  

Re: I love the beach and want to smell like it!

@flyingchange @veronika23 @klmitchellI totally agree - Sol de Janeiro has a  Brazilian Crush Fragrance Spray that is absolutely amazing!  It smells like a tropical beach in a bottle! ❤️

 

I also love Estee Lauder's Bronze Goddess fragrance - It smells super beachy and delish! ❤️

I keep hearing bum bum and got a sample of it with my order so I'm glad I did. I'll check the other one out. Thank you!

Re: I love the beach and want to smell like it!

Oh yes I have to agree with @flyingchange this is another beach scent. Smells great but pretty strong scent.

that's one I haven't heard of so I'll check that one out....

that's one I haven't heard of so I'll check that one out. Thank you!
