The Wash
Start the Fresh and Cozy routine here. Soft musks, shea butter, and cocoa butter in a creamy lather that actually moisturizes while you shower. Layer the lotion and mist over it and the scent builds into something that lasts all day.
eos Shea Better Body Wash – Fresh & Cozy
The Lotion
Creamy banana, vanilla gelato, and spun sugar in a lotion that actually absorbs without feeling sticky. This is the base layer I reach for when I want the Ellis Brooklyn Banana Milkshake mist to really land. Together they turn into something that sme...

Coconut, hibiscus, and warm solar musk. Lightweight, absorbs fast, and actually keeps skin hydrated for 24 hours without the greasy residue. This is the lotion I reach for when I want to feel like I just stepped off a beach. Layer it with the matchin...

The lotion I reach for when I want to smell like clean sheets and a good book. Morning light, dewy cassis, and sheer musk that somehow manages to feel like summer and cozy at the same time. This is the nighttime wind-down scent when the day is done a...
eos Shea Better Body Lotion – Fresh & Cozy
The Mist
If a banana split could be a fragrance, it would be this. Creamy, fruity, and just warm enough to feel like a treat without being overwhelming. I layer this over the Hempz Sugared Banana and Vanilla Blossom lotion when I want to commit to the bit. Th...
Ellis Brooklyn BANANA MILKSHAKE Hair and Body Fragrance Mist
The spray version of that beach you keep daydreaming about. Coconut, pineapple, hibiscus, and something warm and driftwood-y that just lingers. Layer it over the matching eos Coconut Waters lotion and the scent actually sticks around all day.
eos Coconut Waters Body Mist
The final step in the Fresh and Cozy routine. Morning light, clean linen, dewy cassis, and lily of the valley that settle into a sheer musk finish. Spritz it over the lotion and the whole scent just clicks into place.
eos Fresh & Cozy Body Mist

The Ellis Brooklyn Guava Granita collab you didn't know you needed. Same cult dry shampoo formula that actually removes oil without a white cast, now in a guava, banana, and vanilla scent that makes a between-wash day smell like a whole tropical mome...
Amika x Ellis Brooklyn Guava Granita Perk Up Dry Shampoo
The Perfume
The perfume for people who think it's too hot to wear perfume. Beach Walk smells exactly like what it sounds like. Bergamot, coconut milk, and something that just smells like sun and salt air. I spray it on and hours later catch a whiff every time my...
Maison Margiela Replica Beach Walk — The Perfume for People Who Think It's Too Hot to Wear Perfume
Pink pineapple and coconut water hit first and it genuinely smells like you are sitting under a palm tree with a fruity drink in your hand. Then plumeria and vanilla pull it into something warmer and a little more sultry as it dries down. The most tr...
Ellis Brooklyn Miami Nectar — The Most Tropical Perfume I've Ever Smelled
Found this one recently and have not put it down. Fig leaf, jasmine, and blonde woods that smell like a Mediterranean garden in the early morning before it gets hot. Not a heavy floral, not a sweet floral. Just clean and warm and a little earthy in t...
Moroccanoil Lumière du Jour — The Fragrance I Can't Stop Reaching For
Green apple, tangerine, and soft florals that smell like getting ready to go out in 2007 and somehow it still hits. This is the nostalgia scent I keep coming back to because it genuinely holds up. Light, fresh, and just the right amount of fruity wit...
Ralph by Ralph Lauren Eau de Parfum
Guava, banana, mango blossom, and melon with a vanilla and almond milk base that keeps it from going full candy. This is the fun one. The one you spritz on before a pool day or a summer brunch when you want to smell like a fruity drink someone paid t...
Ellis Brooklyn Guava Granita Eau de Parfum
Citrus, red fruits, rose, and a woody musky base that just smells like an Italian summer somehow. This is the one I reach for when I want something fresh and clean but not basic. Not a typical summer scent but absolutely a summer scent. It just hits ...

Sweet banana and coconut cream that actually smells like Maui and not a candy store. Gardenia and jasmine keep it from going too gourmand, then rum and vanilla bourbon pull it into something warm and a little intoxicating at the dry down. This is the...
Kayali Maui in a Bottle Sweet Banana 37 Eau de Parfum
Picture yourself on the open ocean, nothing around you but deep blue water and salt air. That is exactly what this smells like. Aquatic, sharp, and just salty enough to feel like actual ocean spray on your face. Fresh and clean but with an edge that ...
