Lovely Lights Body Mist 236ml
Two hundred and thirty six millilitres is an odd number for a bottle, and it is the clue to what Sarah Jessica Parker Lovely Lights Body Mist 236ml is for: a quantity meant to be used up rather than saved.
What is in it is a white floral pitched light. Neroli leads, clean and faintly bitter, the orange flower note that smells laundered rather than sweet, with honeysuckle thickening it and mandarin orange adding a quick burst of peel. Gardenia and jasmine follow, the first creamy and a touch rubbery, the second warmer and sweeter, and cashmeran runs underneath holding them in a smooth musky haze. The last of it is musk, sandalwood and amber, soft and close, more a warmth on the skin than a smell anywhere in the room.
A mist carries far less oil than an eau de parfum, so expect an hour or two of real presence and a trace after that. Used properly it is a layering product: on damp skin before dressing, over a towel dried neck, or across a cotton shirt on a hot day. It will not survive a long evening and is not trying to. Two or three pumps across the collarbone is the right dose, and a fourth will do no harm.
It reads as feminine, suits warm weather, and works for anyone who wants to smell of flowers without filling a room. The collection itself is a licensing deal rather than a perfume house. Coty Prestige develops the scents, makes them and sells them, while Sarah Jessica Parker contributes her name and her opinion of how they smell. The partnership dates from 2005 and ranks among the longest running arrangements in celebrity fragrance, which is why the line now reaches well beyond the original bottle.
