Living in the UAE means that you get to experience beach weather all year round. Yet, there are times in which a drizzle of rain might disrupt your beach plans, and there are seasons in which the sun is a little too aggressive for you to be able to enjoy a day on the gorgeous coast of the Arabian Gulf.
When you do get a chance to enjoy a day on the shore, choosing a beautiful beachy scent would keep you in tune with your surroundings and would help you enjoy your day at the beach that much more, for it would make you feel as though you were one with the sea. But if you weren’t able to physically be on the beach, scents have a special way of taking you there without you having to leave the doorstep of your house.
The various notes associated with the beach and summer differ from one person to the next. You might directly link the smell of sea salt to the beach, while someone else might breathe in the scent of tropical fruit and be taken back to their best memories of summer. When it’s hot, you may worry about your perfume fading. Check out these steps to make the perfume last longer.
Whether you’re looking for a scent to accompany you on your beach day or just looking to carry around summer memories in a bottle, here are 8 perfumes from our collection that would accomplish either of these goals.
