Remember when you used to wear light and airy body mists instead of perfume? What ever happened to that? Sure, we grew up and had bigger budgets to spend on “adult” fragrances and all that, but sometimes it’s nice to be a bit nostalgic about our beauty–especially when it comes to a scent that is so closely linked to memory. Hey, we’re not dissing perfume (this writer is a bona fide fragrance addict with a 26-scent rotation in the works) but what about for those post-gym pick-me-ups or on-the-go need-some-scent moments? For that, we have five relive-the-good-old-days body sprays that will match your teenage budget, too.
Calgon Tahitian Orchid Fragrance Body Mist, $9
Orchids are such a delicate and feminine scent and this particular body mist harnesses the brand’s “take me away” M.O. and then some. Taking us back to getting ready for school dances and putting on some shimmery lip gloss (just me?), this soft yet seductive spray of white orchids from the South Pacific is the perfect post-work pre-date spritz.
