Who doesn’t like a body mist? Men, women, girls and boys, body mists are the affordable way to a get a fragrance hit. That’s why I love using them because it gives me a wide choice of fragrances to wear everyday but doesn’t cost me too much money. I’m always on the look out for new body mists or sprays, and I found last year Escentuals White Musk Body Mist in Boots for £2.50.
Why did I buy this?
I was looking for small gift ideas for friends for Christmas and body mists are always a great product to buy for them. I stumbled on this range because it was on a special offer (£2.50 instead of £4.00), the scents were appealing and I’ve never used them before so I wanted to see what they were like.
Packaging
Escentuals White Musk Body Mist comes in a blue tinted, clear, plastic spray bottle. This is very plain in look so would appeal to most people of most ages.
Fragrance
This has a white floral scent to it. Its fresh, it’s quite sweet in smell and very youthful. I really like the fragrance because it’s quite feminine and not old fashioned.
Strength & Longevity
Despite being very generous with the application of Escentuals Body Mist on my clothes, I thought the initial scent was there but should have been much stronger. The amount I applied should have knocked me out but it barely made a dent to my nose, so I would say strength wise this was low. I use this just before I leave in the morning for work and I barely notice it during the day, so longevity for me isn’t great.
Something else to add?
After using this I found it leaked. I don’t know whether it’s just this one spray bottle this is happening to or all, but after spraying this it’s on my hands and even on the floor.
Recommended?
Although I like the fragrance of this body mist and the packaging, the strength and longevity is a little disappointing to me. I never expect body mists to be everlasting and massively punchy in how they smell, but I’ve had stronger with better longevity. Is it possibly because of the actual fragrance this is weak? Would a different version be better? No idea. I have the vanilla version so will test this out at some point. But I won’t be buying this again. Strong fragrances aren’t for everyone but I still think, even for those people who want softness, they could get a better body mist from a different brand.
