Glossier's ‘refreshing' hair perfume that ‘lasts so long' pulls in rave reviews
The two scents share woody notes that has one shopper insisting makes them 'identical'
Glossier's hair and body spritz is pulling in rave reviews on Sephora, where the £35 spritz is being described as 'identical' to a much more expensive product. The spritz comes in two scents: Sandstone and Orange Blossom Neroli, but the former seems to be the most popular.
Sandstone is a blend of sandalwood, clary sage and fresh fig leaf which gives a fairly woody end result. One shopper said that the mist is 'identical' to Jo Malone London's Wood, Sage and Sea Salt which is more more expensive at £82 for a 50ml bottle.
Hair and body sprays typically lean a lot sweeter than the Glossier option, with Sol de Janeiro being one of the most popular options known for their fruity summer scents. So far the Glossier hair perfume has pulled in an average rating of 4.2 out of 5 on Sephora.

One shopper praised the longevity, writing: "This lasts SO LONG. Lots of compliments. Unlike anything else I own! And I love the body spritz format rather than the perfume, I feel like I can spray this all over my body and it won't be too overpowering."
While another said: "Love love love the scent. It's the perfect all over spray that just clings to your hair and clothes and is so refreshing. I thought I'd be a fan of the other scent more, but this one is perfect for everyday use."
One shopper found the longevity lacking, saying: "I ordered this in Sandstone. It's not a strong fragrance and the lasting power isn't great. The packaging even says to spritz liberally as the first step in your scent routine. It's herbaceous and woody, so if you like fruity florals then this one won't be for you. I do like the scent. I just wish there was more to it."
It is always worth remembering that perfume mists are never intended to have the same lasting power as eau de parfums. Glossier does have Sandstone available in both a Daily Oil Wash cleanser for £28 as well as an £18 deodorant and a £28 lotion. When using the same scent in multiple products it can have a stronger impact.
Another shopper was impressed by the longevity and even compared it to a much more expensive option on the high street. "Smells great and lasts a long time on clothes, but I will say if you have wood sage and sea salt from Jo Malone, you don't need this. They smell identical to me. I would buy again though when I run out."
