As a lover of a good body mist, I’m not mad there’s loads of them available on the high street. But more Sol de Janerio body mist dupes? Hmmm. I’m not bothered if they’re dupes or not at this stage. As long as they smell nice, that’s my main concern. My second is being affordable, which Primark’s current selection of body mists are. So what do they have available to buy?
Fragrances
The fragrances that I found in my local store were:
Rio Romance – Pear & Amber
Capri Coast – Jasmine & Brown Sugar
Fiji Fiesta – Apple & Coconut
Bali Blush – Pineapple & Sandalwood
All of these fragrances seem perfect for summer wearing. Fruity, tropical and sweet scents is what many people like to use during warmer weather. And these fragrance types tick that box.
Packaging
Each fragrance comes in a plastic, spray topped bottle that is clear but coloured: red, purple, green and pink. I’m not sure if it’s the bottle that’s coloured or the fragrance itself, but the products stand out and are eye catching. I can see why they’re popular. Very simple in look but overall decent packaging as they will appeal to different age ranges but definitely the younger ones.
How do they smell?
I managed to have a cheeky sniff of one, although can’t remember which! The one I smelt was fruity, sweet and tropical. Very pleasant, nothing incredible but did the job of a nice smelling body mist.
Price
Each hair and body mist is 100ml and costs £3.50. This is reasonably priced. But if you’re looking for more fragrance and/or fragrance that costs less, there are plenty which offer slightly better value e.g Aldi, Home Bargains and Lidl. But the size and shape of this fragrance makes it a good size to carry and use on the go. I find some on the market are too big and bulky to slip into a pocket, so this is a happy medium.
Will I buy these?
I’m not sure. All of the fragrances appeal to me, and the mists aren’t expensive. I would be curious to see if they bring out scents geared towards autumn and winter in the next few months. Possibly then I would try them out!
