I’ve been using the usual body mists from my collection every morning, but desperately wanted a change. I needed a different kind of fragrance hit. I totally forgot I bought Superdrug’s Layering Labs Sweetie Body Mist last year when it was on a special price promotion. So of course it needed to come out, especially since I’ve never used Layering Lab body mists before. What is it like?
Packaging
Layering Lab Sweetie Body Mist comes in a plastic, clear, spray bottle. I like the fact it’s not totally rectangular in shape as the edges are curved, making it a little different in look. Simple label but reasonably appealing so would suit various age groups.
Fragrance
This is a great mix of creamy and comforting vanilla, floral but not old fashioned rose with juicy, fruity notes thrown in too (scent description says pear). I love how this smells because it’s gorgeous and doesn’t seem to be aimed at a particular group or age of people who would use this because of how it smells. I’m not a massive rose fan but this gives it extra depth and a perfume quality of fragrance rather than body mist.
Strength & Longevity
When I first apply this, the scent is very obvious and quite punchy. It’s very uplifting and strength wise I would say is a medium. Personally, I would like the strength to be maintained a little longer because it is such a beautiful fragrance, along with it’s longevity as well. To be fair, I still can smell this a few hours after the first application but it’s much fainter. Since it’s has the rose base (I find rose being one of the most strongest and lingering floral fragrances), I would’ve liked this to perform a touch better. But it still did a decent job.
Recommended?
Despite wishing more from this on the performance front, this is still a great fragrance. The smell is stunning for a body mist and I enjoy wearing this which is the most important thing. I can see why this would appeal to a younger market but equally to an older one too. So I would still recommend this. At the end of the day it’s a body mist and expectations can’t be the same compared to a fine fragrance. And for the price, and the fact this is regularly on a price promotion, definitely one to buy!
Superdrug’s Layering Lab Sweetie Body Mist normally costs £3.99 for 100ml. At the time of writing this post this is on a buy one get one half price promotion.
