2500 People Waited for These '80s-Inspired Body Mists to Hit Shelves—They're Finally Here (for Now)
Vacation, the brand known for A) sunscreens that are as fun to use as they are effective and B) an unapologetically kitschy, '80s-inspired aesthetic, recently announced a limited-edition run of body mists. Based on the brand's existing internet-famous fragrances, these three new body mists garnered a lot of attention. In fact, they had a waiting list of more than 2500 people before launch.
Well, they've officially hit store shelves (both IRL and online). While all three are still available to shop at this time, we don't expect them to stay that way for long. Not with the 2.5K-person waiting list, and not with all the internet hype surrounding these scents. Keep scrolling to snag all three before they're gone.
This body mist smells exactly the same as Vacation's wildly popular Vacation Eau de Toilette ($60), which is the brand's signature scent. Coconut water, coconut milk, solar musk, banana, and pineapple are standard summery fragrance notes that remind me of nostalgic sunscreens of yesteryear. Pool water and swimsuit lycra are anything but standard, but they give the scent a special, and surprisingly chic, kick. It's basically summer, bottled.
Vacation's After Sun Body Mist does, in fact, smell like classic after-sun lotions. The aloe note is instantly recognizable and reminds me of the green, goopy gel I'd slather over my skin after a day spent at the beach. (I can almost feel the cold, sticky texture meeting my hot, sun-soaked skin.) However, there's a luxurious side to it, too, thanks to the green tea, tonic water, gin, and "resort towel" notes. It's giving expensive, members-only yacht club.
Last but not least, Grand Cuvée is the scent of a summertime celebration. It evokes the moment you pop the champagne and the foamy spray falls on the flagstones at your feet. (How could it not with a fragrance note like sabered champagne cork?) It's sweet but not cloying and warm in a sun-kissed, summer way (not in a sweater-by-the-fire-in-winter way). It's definitely the most luxurious and decadent scent.
