Body mists are my go to forms of fragrance, mainly because they can be so affordable. Affordability means I don’t have to be precious with how much or how often I use body mists, which makes these perfect products to use daily. One of my latest purchases is Sarah Jessica Parker’s Lovely Sheer Body Mist. Not a brand I’ve used before but I’m aware of the celebrity behind it. So why did I buy it and how did it perform?
Why did I buy this?
I bought this body mist online from Superdrug. I regularly scroll through their website because they have some good offers on, especially for fragrances. I found this body mist was on promotion and down from £10.00 to £5.00 plus a buy one get one half price. Perfect opportunity to buy and try one for myself and give this as birthday gift for a friend.
Packaging
250ml of body mist comes in a typical looking spray dispenser bottle. It’s clear, but the label covers the majority of the bottle which is silver and white. It’s very clean in look, eye catching despite it’s simplicity and quite appealing to look at.
Fragrance
White florals. This smells of light, feminine, clean, almost powdery white florals. It’s pleasant enough, but slightly old fashioned in scent. I’m not in love with how this smells to be honest. I can’t see this being loved by all ages. This seems more for people who like a more traditional scent, so possibly an older wearer.
Strength & Longevity
Sarah Jessica Parker’s Lovely Sheer Body Mist is quite light in strength. I find I have to be quite heavy handed when applying this to get the initial kick of fragrance. It also doesn’t have the best longevity. Applied on clothes in the morning, by mid day I can barely smell anything.
Recommended?
This fragrance wasn’t for me. The actual scent is too floral heavy and one dimensional so automatically I give it a thumbs down. But that’s my personal taste. I also want something heavier, which this isn’t. So if you want a floral scent that is basic, traditional, light in strength and longevity, then you might like this. If you want something with more punch, a mix of different florals or scents that make this more fully bodied, and more modern, then this isn’t for you.
Sarah Jessica Parker’s Lovely Sheer Body Mist doesn’t seem to be available anymore from Superdrug, but it is on Amazon for less than £10.00.
