SUN Hair & Body Fragrance Mist

I recently was gifted by Ellis Brooklyn , their Sun fragrance body mist, and it truly encapsulates the essence of a carefree beach party. The scent is a delightful blend of Italian Mandarin, Sweet Clementine, and Lemon Sfuma, creating a joyful and playful experience reminiscent of a sun-drenched afternoon. I love that Ellis Brooklyn is committed to ethical practices—it's cruelty-free, solar-powered, and vegan. The notes profile, featuring Orange Flower Water, Williams Pear Blossom, and Vanilla in the middle, transitions to a base of Cedarwood, Upcycled Musk, and Ambrox Super, adding depth to the overall fragrance. I appreciate the brand's dedication to sustainability, with 30.4% upcycled and 37% renewable ingredients. The EcoScent Compass AAA rating reinforces its eco-friendly approach. The glass bottle with a fine mist sprayer not only delivers the fragrance effectively but is also 100% recyclable, aligning with the product's environmentally conscious ethos. The inspiration behind the scent, as quoted from Jenny Han's "The Summer I Turned Pretty," adds a poetic touch, making it feel like you're carrying a piece of magical summer with you. The 100ml size is perfect for on-the-go application, and the recommended usage on wrists, neck, and pulse points ensures a lasting, subtle fragrance throughout the day. Ellis Brooklyn Sun fragrance body mist offers a sensorial journey with a commitment to cruelty-free and sustainable practices, making it a delightful addition to any fragrance collection.

While I like the brand's focus on sustainability and low toxicity, this is a lot to pay for a body mist. I've tried another of this brand's scents and that one was far too strong - whereas this one is very very weak. It disappears quite quickly. I wasn't too upset about that though as there is something in here - maybe the pear note? - that gives it a cheap smell. I wanted to like this a lot and felt pretty disappointed.
