Remember my fellow 90s baby, Barbie, the scented cari girl? I have vivid memories of huffing her beachy coconut scent while playing in the pool as a child. Loveshackfancy, a curator of the coastal princess atmosphere, has released a new fragrance at the start of summer.
Loveshackfancy Love Eau de Parfum ($125) at Beach has definitely been the summer scent so far. The solar scent with notes of flangipani, coconut and salt water is fully encapsulated this season. I live by the sea and enjoy my engagement. Even if it’s not where you are in life, this scent will carry you into the summer of your own love. Put this on the beach bar and see what happens. I predict there will be plenty of flirty tributes. I imagine this essentially smelled sex and at the Hamptons beach party in the city.
Buy at Sephora – $125
Salt water and skin musk are intended to amplify your natural scent, giving it an undeniably sexy scent that evokes the sensation of the skin of the salty skin. Also, although tropical, it’s not a cheap method. Sandalwood, Ambrox, Ylang-Illang, and Gardenia help balance the creamy, woody warmth with a cool beach atmosphere.
Not to mention a gorgeous bottle. The oversized bows of the sculpture, the colours of the sun set in the ombré, elegant antique-inspired shapes, and the iconic Love Shack Fancy Ikat Rose Print make it all into a work of art of its own. Pro Tip: Once the perfume is finished, you can pop the top and upcycle the bottle into a bud vase.
