In recent years, a lot has changed for us millennial and Gen Z fragrance zealots, who were once used to fragrance mists that faded an hour after a nice shower.
Back then, fragrance mists were collectibles, and it wasn’t uncommon to stash a mini version of your favorite scent in your gym bag, car, or locker. (Don’t even get me started about everyone’s obsession with buying them in bulk during annual sales at our favorite stores.)
Now, we’ve entered a new wave of long-lasting, robust spritzes and mists, and Australian fragrance brand Smooch Body has changed the game with its adorable handheld fragrance mists that feature sweet and unique scents.
Below, learn what sets Smooch Body apart, get to know the fragrances, and see what the BrownStyle team thought after putting them to the test.
What Makes Smooch Body Unique
Inspired by the women in founder Luisa Giansiracusa’s life, Smooch Body stands out because its formula is an eau de toilette—meaning it has a higher concentration of fragrance. (Most mists have a much lower concentration, which is why they usually disappear quickly after being sprayed.)
The brand’s mission is to create versatile, on-the-go perfume mists that spark memories of tropical getaways, everyday adventures, and unforgettable moments.
Meet The Fragrances
Pip: This scent is for the laidback folks who love earthy, natural accords. Pip has notes of cedarwood, patchouli, and bergamot. A scent for the confident and self-assured.
Ellie: For those who love a light, delicate scent, Ellie is for you. This everyday fragrance has notes of sweet pea, water lily, and raspberry.
Janey: This is for the gourmand lovers! If you love the smell of fresh confections, this scent is for you. Janey has accords of roasted almond, toffee, and coconut.
Nikki: You can never go wrong with a woodsy floral. For those who love a simple fragrance with coziness, Nikki is for you. This mist has accords of sandalwood, musk, and jasmine— perfect for winding down as part of your bedtime routine.
Ria: If you love tropical stone fruits, you will love Ria. This fragrance has a combination of grapefruit, mango, and white flowers.
Our Honest Thoughts On Smooch Body’s Collection
A quick note: While we enjoyed testing these scents, those with sensitive skin may want to patch-test first. One reviewer on our team experienced a mild reaction, so it’s worth checking how your skin responds before spraying generously.

“If you’re looking for light, airy fragrances, try out Smooch Body’s new on-the-go perfume mists. My favorite was Ria, a mango vanilla eau de toilette that brings a sweet and sexy scent perfect for a day out on the town! These vegan, cruelty-free mists are also the perfect size for travel, so I will be carrying them on my next weekend getaway!”
Emerald Elitou, Creative Director
“Sandalwood and heavier florals aren’t usually my go-to, but Nikki completely won me over. It instantly took me back to Saturday mornings with my aunt—a warm, comforting scent memory I didn’t know I missed.”
Tweety Elitou, Editor-in-Chief
“I can never get enough of floral scents! I loved the Ellie scent because it is bright, playful, and has just enough sweetness to be the ideal everyday scent. I suggest layering it with other fragrances that boast warm vanilla scents for the Fall.”
Smooch Body is definitely on track to have some of the best fragrance mists of the year. We truly cannot wait to see what’s next for the brand!
