The Body Shop Summer Fragrances

Fans of The Body Shop’s classic perfumes will be excited to check out the brand’s limited edition summer fragrances. These three, new perfumes have been out for a few months, yet not much fuss has been made over them… which is incomprehensible, as they’re absolutely lovely!

The three newcomers are upgraded, summer-inspired versions of three Body Shop oldies, but goodies (White Musk, Love Etc…, and Dreams Unlimited) and give their older counterparts, a fresh, girly new spin. Like all Body Shop perfumes, they have a lotion counterpart, though I can’t say that the smell transfers well into the new medium.

The only negative aspect of these perfumes is that like all Body Shop fragrances, they contain no alcohol… a plus for your skin, a minus if you want the scent to last from day to night. Vegans and vegetarians will be happy to know that any musk used is synthetic and cruelty-free.

My thoughts on the individual fragrances:

Dreams Unlimited- Sun Fresh: My favorite of the three! This perfume is rich with fruity-floral notes and a lingering hint of ocean spray. The fruity portion has zesty lemon, but most prominently juicy, clear watermelon, while the florals give us iris and neroli. It is a fresh, clean smell that would be perfect for a fun picnic and summer games day at the park or the beach!

Love Etc…- Sun Kiss: Those who love the classic Love Etc… will be pleased to know that this version shares the same citrus-powdery loveliness, but with a sexy new overlay. While we have the same neroli, bergamot, and jasmine that made the first one so wonderful, this one has a sensual touch of nectarine and amber that’s perfect for a romantic patio dinner while the sun is setting. 

White Musk- Sun Glow: Unlike the woodsy musk of the original White Musk, Sun Glow has a powerful zing of lemon, followed by a warmer and sweeter aftertaste of peony and amber. This fragrance would be a hit at moonlight barbeques and other nighttime excursions.

Hurry to your nearest Body Shop and pick them up before they’re gone!
(PS- They are no longer available on the website, but should still be available in-store.)

Final Verdict: LOVE IT!
