Sea Salt Mimosa

I'm always on the lookout for a summertime beach fragrance, and lo and behold it was right in my linen closet. I had bought a selection of handwash and shower gel at a reduced price from BABW, and among my choices was C.O.Bigelow Sea Salt and Mimosa handwash. Gorgeous bottle for my guest room bath, and Wow, what a beautiful fragrance! Searched online and found there was an eau de toilette available. so I'm now wearing my Summer 2018 fragrance!! Its projection is around 12 feet, and longevity on me is 12 hours and counting. Fun to find something this delightful at an awesomely affordable price! btw, I love all the notes and find this quite feminine...

Wonderful scent. You can almost close your eyes and feel as if you're at the beach on a breezy afternoon. I simply adore this fragrance. Many many many compliments when wearing it. But what surprised me the most is the longevity coupled with the projection! I get complimented all day. I would safely say you get around 6-8 hours of positive projection and subtle after. A must buy for any beach goer!

I bought a bottle of this from Bath & Bodyworks a few years ago. I wish I had bought a backup but I didn't know it would be discontinued so quickly. It's a lovely, refreshing scent with a little depth from the musk and amber. I still take a peek inside a B&BW every once in a while just to see if I can find one.

Do yourself and your wallet a favor. If you do decide to buy this do not, I repeat do not pay the retail price of $45. I bought this,Mandarin Oak and Citrus Vetiver for less than that from eBay. I will say that this is long lasting. Easily over 6 hours with great sillage. Not 12 foot sillage but better than expected LOL! It is on the playful side as it is salty and sweet. Borderline feminine but acceptable for the right guy to wear. I don't detect any of the spicy notes as this scent is all about mimosa,salt and coconut. It smells very realistic and of high quality. This can easily be someone's Summer scent or even signature for someone who lives in a tropical climate.

I picked this up on a whim at B&BW on sale for $4...YES! $4!!!! So, anyway, it's a nice, non-offensive office friendly female-leaning scent, with surprisingly decent longevity and projection, but the scent itself is where I feel this may have been a poor investment. No kidding, it smells exactly like my mother's hairspray. It's not that it's an awful scent or reminds me of a traumatic experience, but I have absolutely no desire to walk around (for the time it lasts) smelling like a bottle of Tresemme. Period.
