Let's daydream for a moment. The year is 2005. You're at the mall with your best friends, perusing shops filled with clothing and accessories that far exceed your teen budget. But what's that scent in the air? Victoria's Secret Love Spell—now that you can afford. Flashback to 2024, and we have news for you: Body mists are back, baby!
For those who aren't super attuned to the wonders of body mists, allow us to fill you in. Mists, unlike eau de perfumes or eau de toilettes, are shorter-lived. While a fleeting fragrance may seem pointless, we're here to assure you otherwise. Generally, they're much lighter in scent than traditional perfumes, hence why it's not overwhelming to continually re-spritz them throughout the day. Plus, the packaging tends to be colorful and fun, making mists even more delightful to use.
We rounded up 19 of the most delectable body mists of the modern day. Check them out below.

Ellis Brooklyn Peaches Fragrance Body Mist
Ellis Brooklyn's Peaches Fragrance Body Mist has a light but lush fruity floral profile, with notes of sweet peach, orange flower, and sugared musk. And we dig the inspiration: "the '90s—the malls, grunge, anthems, and daydreams." The best part? Ellis Brooklyn realized what a hit their body mists are and debuted them in a new travel-friendly 50ml size sold exclusively on the Ellis Brooklyn site and at Ulta.

Victoria's Secret Tease Fine Body Mist
When Victoria's Secret launched Tease as part of its Sexy Little Things Noir collection in 2010, it was one of the most scandalous scent debuts of the time, simply due to the name. Now, the fan-favorite fragrance is available in body mist form, featuring the same familiar notes of white gardenia, anjou pear, and black vanilla. (If you prefer richer, sweeter scents, the brand also sells Tease Candy Noir, showcasing notes of raspberry, iris, and tonka.)
