Cult favorite vanilla perfume by Kayali!
KAYALI VANILLA 1.7 oz / 50 ml EDP Spray
Get the full set of this oil and perfume combo to intensify the scent and you have yourself an affordable (and better) version of the santal 33 by le labo. It’s vanilla and sandalwood but it’s not too sweet nor is the sandalwood overbearing. It’s the...
Perfume Oil No.04 Bois de Balincourt - Maison Louis Marie
I love this for a vacation scent because it’s floral, sweet, and has bergamont and amber notes. This is like summer time in a bottle. It’s sunsets at the beach, tans, and hot weather.
Flowerbomb Tiger Lily Eau de Parfum
If you like the vanilla/sandalwood scent but want something with a bit of oud, this is great! I love this for a date night scent because it’s a perfect spin on my classic sandalwood vanilla and santal scent mixed with sultry.
SALTED MUSE PARFUM
This is equivalent of waking up in crisp white sheets after the best dream. Creamy sandalwood, sheer jasmine, and a whisper of musk melt into your skin so seamlessly, it smells like you, only softer, warmer, and impossibly intimate.
Missing Person Fragrance
Shower
In the shower I love using naturism products because they’re gentle, foaming, and fragrance free which is perfect for sensitive and acne prone skin. My favorites are:
- Glow Getter for a smooth finish post shave and exfoliating
- Glycolic Acid Body...
Body Wash - Advanced Body Cleansers
If you’re looking for something that smells amazing, Dove is always a classic.
Body Wash for All Skin Types
If you want to romanticize your shower routine a bit, Cyklar by Claudia Sulewski, is the perfect way to get those mature fragrant scents that are still safe for the skin. My ultimate favorite scent is vanilla verve and bergamont.
Think hotel luxury...
Sensorial Oil-Infused Body Wash
HOLY GRAIL! I use this to help break up the deodorant under my arms, to shave, and after the Naturium Glow Getter body wash to leave the skin shiny, soft, supple, AND smelling like vanilla and almond. It’s the perfect layer for your body care routine...
Almond Shower Oil For Dry Skin
I have used this exfoliator since I was 16 and it has never failed me. It gets rid of dead skin, evens out texture, and smells amazing with a scent that lasts all day.
I would avoid this around your privates since it’s scented but everywhere else -...
Body Scrubs – Tree Hut Shea®
If you want the ultimate hotel luxury experience, get necessaire! It’s aesthetic, clean, and super fragrant. Oftentimes, I find myself not needing to wear perfumes after because the body wash and body lotion combo (in santal) acts as if i’m wearing e...
Necessaire
Bodycare
A super light and airy body lotion that is perfect for the summer heat but is still moisturizing, healing dry skin. It leaves the skin smooth and shiny without feeling greasy.
The Glow Getter Multi-Oil Body Butter
A simple, easy, accessible, and affordable option that truly leaves my skin soft for 24 hours and smelling good for the entire day. I love this as my go-to lotion and my favorite scents: cocoa butter and cherry blossom are perfect for layering scents...
Body Care Products
Layer this on top of your lotion OR switch out your lotion for an oil if you want your skin to shine and smell good. Oil is a perfect base for perfume so this is great for layering scents. I love the vanilla verve.
Vitamin C Body Oil - Skincare-Infused Body Oil For Glowing Skin
I love using this in the winter because this is more of a gel than an oil. I will say it is a slightly greasy so you’ll need to let it sit and dry for a bit before going about your day. If you love a classic cocoa scent - go for this. And it’s afford...
Vaseline® Intensive Care™ Cocoa Radiant Gel Oil
I personally use this mainly for scent as because I don’t think it’s as moisturizing as the other oils i’ve tried. The scent I love is santal bloom to match perfect with my sandalwood scents.
Santal Body Oil For Glowing Skin
Hair
I love using this for my hair because our hair needs to smell good too! Especially on. days I need to wash my hair, I spray this on before styling and it helps retain a beautiful scent.
