Beach Notes In A Fragrance
To a lot of us, the beach is an escape from reality. It is the place we go when we need a break from the world. But how do you define the smell of the beach in a fragrance? It comes down to the vibe that you feel… when you think of the beach that will help determine what kind of fragrances notes to look for.
If you like a nautical, sailor vibe that’s fresh and aquatic. Look for marine notes like seawater, and seaweed.
For a sunny day, spent a tanning vibe that smells sweet even like a luxurious suntan lotion. Look for floral notes like ylang-ylang, and jasmine.
And for more of a tropical island vibe, that is a fruity and exotic scent. Look for fruity notes like bergamot, coconut, and pistachio.
Now that you have defined what kind of scent you are looking for, here is the list with the top, middle and base notes listed!
