Missy

Very pretty, Fruity, tropical, sweet, bright, beachy, summer-y, nostalgic, transportative, happy, playful, fresh, juicy, citrusy, floral, creamy, warm This is such a pretty tropical, fruity, beachy scent! It reminds me a lot of B&BW At the Beach (which I love!), but it’s got more fruity and tropical notes than At the Beach does. On me, it’s like a mixture of At the Beach and a sweet and creamy pina colada. Kind of what I would consider to be a beachy gourmand. The opening is more tropical fruity and beachy, but as it dries down the tropical fruits become more subtle. At this point it starts smelling less pina colada like, and has much more of a resemblance to At the Beach. The sweet and creamy coconut takes center stage supported by frangipani and the golden warmth of amber. It even has a subtle Sun tan lotion like scent. For me, this is a fragrance I prefer for late spring and summer. It feels very feminine to me, and could easily be worn at any age. I do love the scent, but I doubt that I’ll buy a bottle of it. It’s just too similar to B&BW At the Beach, and I actually prefer At the Beach since it doesn’t have the tropical fruits (it’s also a lot more affordable). As far as some of the fragrances in the “Reminds Me” section goes, here’s my thoughts: 🌴B&BW At the Beach - Almost identical once this has dried down. It just has a slight tropical fruit scent to it that At the Beach doesn’t have, especially in the opening. 🥥🍍Ellis Brooklyn Miami Nectar - They do share similar notes like the coconut, pineapple, and white flowers. However, Miami Nectar has more pineapple throughout, and a much more earthy and masculine leaning dry down. 🐚Replica Beach Walk - They’re both beachy with a coconut note, but Beach Walk has more of a Sun tan lotion like scent as well as a more realistic beachy/ocean scent. It also doesn’t have the tropical fruits, and it’s not as warm or creamy. ☀️Tom Ford Soleil Blanc - They’re both beachy, warm, creamy, and have coconut notes, but that’s about it. Again, Missy has tropical fruits where as Soleil Blanc does not. Soleil Blanc also has a more luxurious and sensual feel to it. I get pretty good performance with Missy. The longevity is decent, it lasts 6-7 hours on me before becoming just a skin scent. The projection is nice, it radiates out about an arm’s length from me. For reference, I’m a huge fan of beachy/coconut fragrances, and some of my favorites include Tom Ford Soleil Blanc, Nest Sunkissed Hibiscus, Kilian Sunkissed Goddess, Replica Beach Walk, Estée Lauder Bronze Goddess, JHAG Lust For Sun, JHAG Vanilla Vibes, Bobbi Brown Beach, SDJ Coco Cabana 39, VS Coconut Passion, B&BW Coco Paradise, B&BW Oahu Coconut Sunset, B&BW At the Beach

Laying by the pool in a greasy puddle of Panama Jack Spf 4 with a boom box and my best friend doing a Cosmo quiz. It is the pre-Summer buzz I need right now in a world where everyone is wearing Sol De Janerio. I might play around layering this with Vacation by Vacation before I start complaining about how I hate sweating and wish it was October Note: Rollerball version, it is giving me more wear time than I typically get from other "clean" fragrances, which I generally avoid when possible, so that is a plus in my book. Edit: And it lasts longer than the Fruit Stripe gum @vibrant.girl mentions -which I want now, but was discontinued January 2024 and it does have that fruity sweetness

Missy smells like a pina colada made with sweet coconut cream on a hot, balmy day, with the green mandarin adding a crisp and fresh edge to a more lactonic and tuberose scent, which can feel a little cloudy for a summertime scent. However it does becomes quite white flower heavy/sunscreeny after a while, I think it could be best layered with an orange/pineapple/passionfruit perfume oil to retain a more refreshing balance.

She starts off with an in your face tropical to the max, almost little girl like scent. Give her 2 minutes because she grows into a gorgeous woody tropical scent.

smells exactly like at the beach by b&bw. i absolutely love that scent & this lasts muchhh longer. officially a fav of mine of summer

Missy is a Business person on vacation and to the point kind of fragrance. Missy is not fruity, juicy, or "fun". Its a clean sunny and non-sweet coconut sun lotion fragrance. One can wear it alone to an office as its non-offensive. Missy is the OO of a Vacation Resort. Missy walks the resort in a crisp white suit and ensures proper protocol is being enforced and doesn't eat Carbs, "literary". I think this is good for layering to add just a flavor of coconut/sun lotion and nothing else. If you like creamer, flavors, sugar or syrup in your beachy fragrances (Alien Goddess), this isn't it. Missy is Plain Ol' coconut/sun lotion. But that's not a bad thing. Its just a preference. In fact, i like how crispy clean and neat Missy is and appreciate this so much more than weird powdery after taste per say that Ouai St. Barts, Arquiste Vacation, Akro Rise, Snif Coco Shimmy, Ellis Brooklyn's Miami, and even Killian's Sun Goddess all share. I have them all as I love beach, sea, marine, aquatic, salty, sand fragrances and those abovementioned ones all share that scratchy dry powdery coconut and/or some sticky oily sun lotion :cough:cough: Hope this helps ツ

I feel as if (almost) everyone who talked about this in videos lied or maybe only gave their initial 5 second impression. The opening as promised is a beautiful coconut/pineapple. Within two minutes on my skin it turned into aquatic/ozonic white floral (no more sweet fruitiness at all just warm watery tropical flower). A cloudy day at the pool. Very clean sunscreen vibes. For that reason I like it. I keep my collection small and do not have a similar scent so I am hanging onto it. However. If you are actually looking for a coconut pineapple perfume perhaps consider Miami Nectar by Ellis Brooklyn. The fruity sweetness on that one (for me) lasts a couple hours and dries down into a more sensual, salty, slighty sweet woody scent. Edit: The opening lasts a bit longer on clothes. At the end of the day. It reminds me of a random niche perfume you might find while on vacation at an upscale beach boutique. I like it more each time I wear it. The outfit I picture this with is big sunglasses, long statement artisinal necklace, comfy shapeless maxi dress.

Pleasantly surprised by this one. Opening is a very basic but pleasant fruity floral--but artfully, it is not cloying as many fruity florals tend to be for me. I don't get much pineapple in the opening--I get something more like apple, but the pineapple does come through subtly after 15 or so minutes. "Subtly" is critical because it doesn't settle into a cliché piña colada scent; instead, it develops into a creamy coconut that isn't nauseating, nor does it smell like baby powder as coconut is wont to do. Someone mentioned that it's a clean sunscreen-like scent, and I agree. It's actually sort of hard to find summer scents that aren't nauseating, so this gets a 3.75/5: I would not be opposed to wearing this.

Bright and youthful coconut-pineapple. Evokes imagery of plumeria flowers, Alba Rosa, store-bought fruit platters while shittalking with friends, going to the beach to look cute and get pictures as opposed to spending all day swimming—definitely delivers on the vibes the brand says it’s meant to give. Without a doubt it’s a fragrance geared towards the younger audience. Very manba gyaru to me, which though that’s not quite my substyle of choice, makes me want to pick up a travel size for any gal coords I’ll do come summertime... ^_^ I don’t think there’s anything I can get from this that I wouldn’t get from a body mist, but I still quite like it.

This is an unexpected like. I don't love this scent profile and I thought this was so beachy and summery. I hate coconut everything (food, scents, drinks, etc) but found myself wishing there was a little more of that in this perfume. It's not sophisticated, it's not a head-turner but it's cute and fun and flirty. I like it. Wouldn't buy it personally since it's not my favorite scent profile but if you like beachy/summery/tropical scents go for it. I feel like there are better price points for this type of scent though (Bath and Body Works, Body Shop, Sol de Janeiro etc).

I'm a huge fan of b/RJ. I appreciate how Rosie approaches the creation of fragrance, how she describes them and captures a vibe, and how they smell. I snatched a sample of this; even though I knew it wasn't going to be my jive (I'm a Lake girl). I simply wanted to experience the newness. And Missy is lovely for what it is; a toasty coconut, fruity pineapple and subtly sweet mandarin embrace with soft florals. Juicy, bright, happy, carefree, refreshing. If that's your thing, you will enjoy this.

It’s fine for what it is, but it’s a skin scent. I was hoping for something more juicy, sweeter, and with stronger pina colada vibes. This does have a strong pineapple note on the top, but i find it disappears in about 3 minutes and transforms into a toasty skin scent. Not as sunscreen scent as say TF Soleil Blanc, but def not a creamy/sweet/juicy scent either. Overall, glad I opted for the travel spray instead of blind buying the whole bottle.

This smells like early mornings in Hawaii, sitting outside among the native flora still heavy with dew, with a bowl of tropical fruit for my breakfast. It’s a lovely and nostalgic vacation fragrance, but I probably wouldn’t wear it every day. The scent was gone and needed reapplication within 3-4 hours. Added Note: when I tried spraying more heavily in hopes of improving longevity and sillage, the scent became much more synthetic smelling.

I had a sample of this from their discovery set. It's very yum, like sipping a virgin Pinacolada and white florals float on the breeze. It's very summery. Sadly it only lasts an hour or two. Sprayed on about 8am and totally gone by midday. I do think it lasted longer on clothes though, so maybe that's the trick? I don't think I'd be buying a full bottle just based on performance. Scent is lovely though 😍

It smells exactly like st barts from Ouai, though I think st barts is slightly cleaner! Very heavy on the pineapple and coconut. I did notice it gets more sunscreeny on the dry down though. It’s a beautiful creamy summer scent! If you love it, I have an amazing combo: layer this with st barts body spray, and use the Trader Joe’s island oasis oil in your hair (supposed to be a st Barts dupe!) 8.5/10

Perfection! Missy is sweet but not too much. The pineapple note really shines with its perfect amount juiciness, touch of tartness and the perfect pinch of sweetness...the coconut is great as well w/o being overly smothering. What really makes this great for me is the fact it doesn’t smell like sunscreen. Buy it, it’s perfect for a beach day and a summer date night.

I loved layering this perfume with Miami Nectar and St. Barts body spray. This perfume is too clean girl for me to want to wear on its own and I love a tropical fruity summer perfume so I never wore it by itself. I finished the travel size of this perfume and will not be upgrading to a full bottle but I do think it’s nice having it in travel size for layering.

This smells almost identical to OUAI st barts. It definitely lasts longer though. I get around 5-7 hours of wear. Its also reminiscent of VS bombshell st tropez. I have all 3 but you definitely don't need all 3. It's a perfect summer scent but also wearable in cold weather too. The coconut and pineapple notes are the most dominant.

The first few times I wore this as a sample there was a warm relaxing enveloping coconut note. With the full bottle this has been primarily pineapple forward and haven't had that same experience again. Enjoy this on the summer sleep fragrance rotation. It is still perceptible in the morning on clothing.

I like this one way more than I thought I would! I ordered a 10ml pack from them and thought this would be the one I liked the least, but it was actually my favorite of the bunch! It's definitely not a scent profile I usually gravitate towards, but I am excited to try layering this in the summer!

i was sent the free sample forever ago and forgot about it! it reminds me of a very ripe pineapple. summer sweetness without tartness. not totally for me and i don't think i'll buy it but i'd definitely recommend if you're in need of a summer fragrance that's subtle but not too subtle

Smells extremely similar to Coco shimmy by Snif but with more sunscreen and little less fruity. I really like the smell but its a scent for you and you only, it has very little projection on me. And although it’s not extremely expensive I feel like there’s better options for cheaper.

Definitely one of those "Beach scents". I have the roll-on and actually like it... For me, the scent stays a while. I find it VERY similar ( if not identical) to Bath and Body Works "At the Beach" scent. Not a mature, seductive, sophisticated scent but fun, fresh beachy and pleasant!

To me, this is a typical tropical summer scent and there's nothing particularly special about it. It's nice, but if you have Hibiscus Palm, BoraBora, Terracotta, Dolce Garden, or any other tropical floral and coconut fragrance, you don't need this one.

Very pretty tropical scent with good longevity. No off-putting synthetics here and it layers well with other fragrances. I'm making my way through the By Rosie Jane discovery set and this is probably my favorite so far.

Sweet fruitsy floral. Nice enough. Casual use. I prefer it outside rather than an intimate setting. If you will be out more than a couple hours bring a travel spray to freshen it up. I do get “pool party” vibes

Delicious pineapple that turns into a tanning lotion. This would be perfect for a pool party, but not to wear around all day. I might try the perfume oil since people say it is much fruitier.

Tried this from the discovery set and when I asked my husband his opinion he said he loved it, said it smelled like all the good things you smell at the pool. I agree.

This 100% smells exactly like bath and body works at the beach. So if you like that, you’ll love this. It reminds me of when I was in high school lol I love it though.

Smells like an average beachy perfume...which I normally like...but with like a nail polish note that makes me not like it.

Identical to sunbum, but I like it 🤪

Boring. Yawning. Sloppy. Lazy. Jk lol Okay, this perfume is nothing new. This is not our first merry go round in terms of a summer fragrance. Missy is boring! I will admit. Something about it is very ozonic.... Smells kind of like Lysol Cleaning Spray. For real. It gives a similar air to Beach by Bobbi Brown. There’s not much to say. I usually enjoy Rosie fragrances, but this fragrance was such a miss. It’s not very feminine. It smells like a chemical sunscreen and a whisper of a watered down piña colada. Ozonic, Lysol spray, sand, bug spray, piña colada that’s been left in the sun for an hour and the ice has melted away. I do not enjoy this. Please get the St Barts by Oui body spray instead. At least that scent delivers “SUN. BEACH. HEAT. FRESH. COCONUT. TROPICAL FLORALS.”

Let me start by saying I generally loveeeee soleil, sunscreen, coconut, and/or fruity scents. Although Missy hits all of those notes, it is too youthful and synthetic to my nose. Upon first whiff I liked Missy OK. Upon dry down it was a hard no. I would not buy. Missy is for young girls. The coconut and pineapple notes are the strongest to my nose, with vanilla sunscreen and faint orange citrus in the background. She isn't sickly sweet for my taste, but a youthful synthetic sweet and slightly head-ache inducing. Reminds me of something a 12 year old would wear. Vaguely reminding me of Harajuku Lovers G Harajuku Lovers. Not a gourmand for anyone over the age of 18. I would only wear this to the beach, but would probably get a headache.

This was my go-to work perfume (serving) this summer. I love a good tropical, summer, coconut scent and I wanted to love this but the pineapple in it became a bit sickening to me. I went through an entire travel spray and enjoyed wearing it but would not repurchase Did get told I smelled good many many times and someone told me I smelled good and that they got hit by a wall of my scent when I walked by 🫣😅 and this was like 4 hours into my shift on a HOT day

Very pretty summer scent. Balmy tropical florals, coconut and pineapple. Something I smelled before, not uniqe. Happy scent, summer, beach and smile on my face. Well done, composition is quality in a sense that it smells good even after a hot day outside, which is what is meant for, summer season. 2-3hours, comfortable, for price it is worth it, if you're looking for pretty tropical beachy fragrance.

Missy came in a 3-piece Rosie Jane travel set I purchased at TJ Maxx for $25 today. It's very summery and sunscreen-like and reminds me A LOT of Riddle's Nude Beach but fruitier, sweeter and more youthful. Overall, it's not my vibe, but I'll probably wear it occasionally next summer when I'm at the pool with my kids.

This is a fruity sunscreen smell, not as floral as TF Soleil Blanc or as literal as Vacation by Arquiste... reminds me of Zebra Stripe fruit gum honestly. It's nice but I think for the price there are a lot of better options out there; both fruitier and beachier, depending on which way you want to go.

A solar, white floral focused scent with a fun hit of pineapple. Smell like the chalkiness of coconut and sunblock with the juiciness of fresh pineapple juice. This is a more refined beach scent than most of your vacation esque fragrances, but it still screams BEACH to me. Not full size worthy.

Immediately teleports me into a hair salon. I’m in the stylist’s chair for a bit, then drydown brings a stylist assistant wearing a tropical print tignon & offering a straw basket of exotic fruits & flowers. Except they’re plastic. No, thank you.

pure pineapple juice with a hint of coconut water for the entire duration. sweet but super linear and sadly i don't like that combo as much as i was expecting to :( still perfectly nice though and with great longevity. overall rating: 🩷🩷🩷🖤🖤 3/5

Every Rosie scent I've smelled has the same ingredient in it, just different levels. What is tolerable in Rosie, is overwhelming, almost choking, in Missy. I can't like this overpowering, plastic smell in this.

This is a sweet pineapple forward fragrance, with a green coconut at its base. It's a nice scent but I'm not crazy for it, and it's something we've all smelled a million times from different fragrance houses.

Reminded me VERY much of Vacation, right down to the hint of vinyl. Artificial in a playful, sunscreen way. From the marketing I was expecting it to lean fruitier. This DNA is getting repetitive.

i’m really confused about the notes. i really don’t get anything here besides a smell of clorox window cleaner?? slightly citrusy, & very, very fresh. i don’t think it smells disgusting, but i don’t like to smell freshly sanitized. i applied this at 1pm (5 sprays; two on each inner elbow, 1 on neck, 2 in hair), & it was mostly gone by 2:30. not particularly surprised with the longevity or sillage bc this is by/rosie jane we’re talking about, but, man. what a shame. this is the smell i was the most excited for in the discovery set, & it’s definitely a letdown.

Honestly...this is TERRIBLE. I've liked By / Rosie Jane perfumes in the past, I don't know what has happened here. Missy is a synthetic mess. It's an absolutely sickeningly sweet melange of tropical fruit monstrosities and the thinnest, sharpest coconut I have ever smelled. It makes me feel a little sick. There are much better tropical coconut fragrances out there. Please, don't wear this.

Missy is sickly sweet to the point of it being a tad nauseating. The coconut note completely takes over and kicks any other note in the shin like the little bully it is. I do see what people mean when they say it's synthetic and reminiscent of sunscreen. If you're a fan of sweet scents this one is for you.

I was influenced. It smells like the inside of a plastic Barbie box combined with a Cabbage Patch kid from the 80s. I don’t get pineapple, coconut or anything tropical. I’m glad I just have a travel spray.

perfume linear de coco + abacaxi (bem piña colada) sintéticos. parece um body mist barato. enjoativo e 0 minha vibe

This smells like warm sunscreen

This smells amazing to me. I didn’t even know this was popular, I bought a discovery set of different perfumes in the same family from Sephora and this was one of them. I fell in love as soon as I sprayed it for the first time and had to go grab a full size. The mix of coconut and pineapple is delicious to me. I don’t even know how to describe what it smells like as a whole. The best I can say is you just smell like a bright summer day on a California rooftop at a cute restaurant where everybody is ordering pina coladas. Like if I was to get dressed and put on a cute sundress and some heels, this is what I would want to smell like when I walked past people. My mom smelled this on me and asked me to order it for her that same day. I don’t smell any floral whatsoever and this is coming from somebody who can’t stand floral scents. I didn’t even know this had a floral note until I came to fragrantica to look up the notes. I’ll also add that it doesn’t smell immature even though it’s fruity. This isn’t something people would smell and think why does this lady have on that cheap teenager perfume? On me, the coconut scent is most prominent and then the pineapples comes in after it.
