7 summer scents that will make you feel like you're on an expensive beach holiday

Daily Mail journalists select and curate the products that feature on our site. If you make a purchase via links on this page we will earn commission - learn more A beach holiday has a distinctive smell: rich coconut, warm sand and sea breeze. But while it's a scent most of us love (and, let's be honest, feels pretty sexy), it's one most of us only experience once or twice a year when we can afford to jet off. Our answer? An amazing perfume with a summery smell to transport you to a beachside. One spritz of the right fragrance and you'll get all those indulgent holiday smells without the price tag (or annoying sandy feet). Below are seven sunshine-soaked scents guaranteed to give you that holiday feeling. Because if we're laying in our local park in the clammy British heat, you best believe we're closing our eyes and pretending we're in the Maldives. Bobbi Brown Beach Eau de Parfum £61.50 Shop With a subtle blend of sand jasmine, sea spray and mandarin, this summer scent from Bobbi Brown nails that nostalgic feel of a beach day (think: sticky sunscreen and a salty breeze) without being too overpowering. Diptyque Ilio Eau de Toilette (100ml) £135 Shop Juliette has a gun Lust For Sun Eau de Parfum (50ml) £100 Shop With indulgent notes of ylang-ylang, monoi and coconut, a couple of spritzes of this solar scent from Juliette has a gun will make you feel like you're on a Maldives holiday – even in the dreary British weather. Tom Ford Soleil Blanc Eau de Parfum (50ml) £222 Shop A heady mix of creamy coconut, spicy cardamom and lush ylang-ylang, Soleil Blanc is Tom Ford's ode to sun-drenched decadence. It's warm, sexy, and radiates 'permanent out of office' energy. Phlur Golden Rule Eau de Parfum (50ml) £99 Shop Kilian Sunkissed Goddess Eau de Parfum (100ml) £225 Shop Love an indulgent fragrance? This Tahitian-inspired spritz is opulent and luxurious, with rich coconut, ylang-ylang and tiare flower. It's so velvety and rich that one spray is enough for a beachside feeling all day. Aerin Hibiscus Palm Eau de Parfum (100ml) £125 Shop A more unusual take on a summery spritz, Hibiscus palm is balanced with Ylang, exotic ginger, coconut milk and musk for a touch of warmth and spice. If you're worried about a fragrance being too sweet, this is the one you should be shopping for as there are plenty of fresh, zesty notes to balance.

French beauty industry paves the way for re-using perfume bottles

The French beauty industry is rethinking its models, faced with the deadline imposed by the French anti-waste law for a circular economy (AGEC), which sets the share of reused packaging at 7% by the end of 2025 and 10% by 2027. Against this regulatory backdrop, six industry players have launched an experiment called "La Boucle Beauté Parfums", deployed from June 30 to October 31 in 192 outlets across France. The initiative was initiated by Circul'R with the support of We Don't Need Roads and the eco-organisation Citeo. It brings together four major brands: Parfums Christian Dior (LVMH), Diptyque, Kenzo Parfums (L'Oréal), and Rochas (Interparfums), as well as two distributors, Nocibé and Beauty Success. The aim is to test a system for reusing perfume bottles on a large scale, by enabling customers to bring in their empty bottles (from J'adore, Flower by Kenzo, Eau de Rochas, and Diptyque ranges) in return for a reward, chosen by each brand. The collected bottles are then sorted and washed in a specialised centre, using shared logistics, before being reconditioned for re-circulation. The cleaning process, crucial to guaranteeing the quality of reuse, is based on CO₂ washing. This is an innovative process that uses no water, detergents, or solvents. "It's on the strength of the lessons learned from our first experiment with skincare products that we're now launching this new pilot dedicated to perfume," said Circul'R's director of coalitions Sixtine Jourde-Roussel. "This progressive approach, by product typology, enables us to build a solid and realistic foundation for reuse in cosmetics." While promising a low environmental footprint, this bottle experiment has yet to prove its technical worth. Feedback from the experiment will feed into a series of environmental and economic analyses, including water and energy consumption. Economic modelling will also be carried out to identify the conditions for the viability of such a system on a large scale. At the same time, a consumer study will analyse customer appetite for this new model. "We need volume for reuse to create momentum and economies of scale," said Jourde-Roussel. "This means reconsidering the value of a perfume bottle, not just as packaging, but as a durable object, potentially usable in less premium lines or second-hand [markets]." Glass manufacturing remains one of the most energy-intensive processes in the beauty and perfume industry. This initiative could well become the first step towards standardising reuse in the world of premium perfumery, a sector long dominated by single use packaging.

We Found the 8 Best Deals From the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale

is the commerce writer at Eater, and an award-winning writer with bylines in GQ, VICE, The Daily Beast, and other publications. A curious home cook with a deep love of Polish cabbage rolls, her devotion to food service journalism knows no bounds. I will always have a soft spot for the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. I know, I know — it's just a department store. But during the peak mall-culture years, exploring Nordstrom's carpeted halls was one of my first initiations into tastemaking; when I made an annual jeans pilgrimage there with my mom in the 2000s, we exalted every cloched candle and linen throw blanket; we pillaged Brass Plum and the M.A.C. makeup counter, pausing only for communion: the storied grilled cheese and tomato soup combo at the Nordstrom cafe. If I close my eyes, I can still hear the live piano playing a jazz rendition of 'When Doves Cry.' This year's Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is live from now until August 3, so let's waste no time in finding you the perfect charcuterie board. This set of Viking knives is $100 off German-made stainless steel is renowned for its high carbon content and durability, and this set by Viking includes all the essentials: a chef's knife, bread knife, carving knife, utility knife, paring knife, kitchen shears, a sharpening rod, and a set of six steak knives. If you're looking to upgrade from the Dull Knife Drawer life, this set's a steal. Get $46 off this trio of Diptyque candles As a proud devotee of the cult of fancy candles, Diptyque's bougies remain some of my all-time favorites for their chic graphic design and romantic, truly room-filling scents. This trio of its popular Baies (a blackcurrant scent), Figuier (a not-to-sweet fig scent), and Tubéreuse (a heady green floral scent) candles sure would make for a great host gift — but I'm tempted to keep them for myself. This just-down-to-earth-enough serving board is 45% off Leave your heavy-duty garlic mincing to a John Boos cutting board and dedicate this decorative-leaning acacia wood board to serving cheese, prosciutto, and snack foods; it's for those moments when you need to chop something small and don't feel like lugging out a giant cutting board. This expensive-looking set of hammered glasses This set of hand-blown glasses feels like a stateside alternative to the vintage-style glasses from the Paris-based glassblowers at La Soufflerie (no need to pay for exorbitant shipping from Europe), which always make me feel like I'm sipping my beverage of choice on a Mediterranean terrace. This charming Le Creuset kettle and mug set bundle Where was this deal during Mother's Day? No matter. It's always a good time to bring some of Le Creuset's heritage French swag into the kitchen. Save $40 on this set of 9 Viking mixing bowls This set of nine stainless steel bowls includes 1.5-quart, 3-quart, 5-quart, and 8-quart bowls, as well as four lids and strainer. But the winning design feature for me is the non-slip silicone bases, because I always end up sliding steel bowls around the counter during a feverish baking session. Get 29% off this Staub bakeware bundle The French cookware brand's most iconic, deep blue colorway is on sale for Nordstrom's Anniversary Sale in the form of a robust bakeware bundle that includes an oven-safe rectangular baking dish, oval baking dish, and a square baking dish with a lid. The double-duty drink dispenser is a perennial must-have You could fill one vessel with iced tea and another with water; one vessel with Four Loko, and another with Celsius. The possibilities are endless. Shop on, my fellow Nordstrom hunter-gatherer — and remember, the sale only lasts for about two more weeks.
