Body Mist

A scented spray marketed for the body. Formulas, fragrance concentration and intended uses vary, so the product’s ingredients and directions are more useful than assuming a fixed percentage.

A body mist is a spray used to add fragrance to the body. Brands may also call it a perfume mist or body spray. Some products are labelled for hair as well; use the directions for the particular product you have.

Mist describes a format and product category, rather than a single recipe. Sol de Janeiro’s Cheirosa 62 Perfume Mist, for example, lists Alcohol Denat. first in its ingredients. Check the actual formula if you are looking for an alcohol-free product.

You can find sweet compositions as well as fresh ones. Cheirosa 62 has maker-listed pistachio, almond, floral, vanilla, salted caramel and sandalwood notes. One wearer particularly enjoyed its warm caramel impression and salty finish. If that combination appeals, it offers a specific direction to try.

Compare the mist itself with any matching cream, balm or perfume you are considering. Keep track of the format when reading reviews, and try a normal application during your day to decide whether you enjoy it enough to reapply or buy a larger bottle.
