Whether we’re psyched to roast some marshmallows around the fire pit with our BFFs or hit the countryside for pumpkin picking and cider sipping fun, fall body mists are the perfect way to capture the season’s vibe.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
The 13 scents of fall<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n![\"Two](\"https:\/\/www.thebudgetfashionista.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/woman-enjoying-perfume-2022-12-01-22-31-09-utc-1000_x_1500.jpg\" "\\"\\"")
<\/figure>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\nThe best fall scents invoke feelings of warmth, comfort, and coziness. The best of those scents remind us of sitting on the coach, wrapped in a sweater, and sipping warm and spicy beverage in good company. An unexpected nose full of pumpkin, clove, or chai in the midst of a hectic day can be transformative. I’m convinced this is why people go batty every year over pumpkin lattes — because the warm pumpkin flavor is comforting.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
To get that experience bottled into a body mist, check labels for these notes:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
\r\n- Cinnamon<\/strong>: A staple in many autumn-themed fragrances, cinnamon is prevalent in fall baking and the star of most pumpkin spice products.<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
- Pumpkin spice<\/strong>: To make pumpkin spice, you combine cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, cloves, and sometimes allspice. This mixture gives a pumpkin latte its distinct flavor.<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
- Apple<\/strong>: The smell of freshly picked apples or warm apple pie is quintessentially fall. Apple cider, both hot and cold, also has a strong fall association.<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
- Caramel<\/strong>: Ask your kids what reminds them of fall and they’re likely to say, caramel apples.<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
- Clove<\/strong>: Clove is warm, sweet, and slightly bitter. It’s what (my opinion) gives pumpkin spice its edginess.<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
- Burning wood<\/strong>: The smell of a wood-burning fire is reminiscent of fall bonfires and cozy nights indoors.<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
- Pine or cedar<\/strong>: As evergreen trees, pine and cedar are associated with the approach of winter.<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
- Maple<\/strong>: Maple syrup. Enough said.<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
- Nutmeg<\/strong>: Another component of pumpkin spice, nutmeg has a warm, nutty aroma.<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
- Vanilla<\/strong>: Often used with other fall scents like apple and pumpkin spice, vanilla adds a touch of warmth and sweetness.<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
- Cranberry<\/strong>: This tart, fruity scent is often associated with the fall and winter holiday season.<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
- Chai<\/strong>: Chai spice, a mix of spices including cardamom, ginger, cinnamon, and cloves, is often associated with warmth and comfort of the fall season.<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
- Marshmallow: <\/strong>Marshmallow is a mainstay addition on mashed sweet potatoes. It’s like a creamy, fluffy version of vanilla.<\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
The best fall body mists<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Here are some autumn scents I love. From pumpkin and cinnamon fragrances to marshmallow ones, I can’t get enough. Fortunately, most of these are reasonably affordable. If you need to go super budget, walk into your local TJ Maxx<\/a>. You might find some delightful, but off-brand sprays at bargain prices.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\nNo products found.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n

Is it the same as a body spray?<\/h3>\n\n\nBody mists and body sprays are the same thing. They’re also sometimes called fragrance mists. All these terms refer to a lightly scented product you can spray all over your body (vs. perfume, which is more concentrated and best used in small doses). <\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\nHow long does the scent of a body mist last?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\nThe scent of a body mist usually lasts two or three hours. You can extend this by layering it with a lotion of a similar scent. Or, keep a small container of your fav fragrance in your bag and reapply.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\nHow do I apply a body mist?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\nYou can spray a body mist all over your body before you dress. Paying extra attention to wrists, neck, and behind the ears can help the fragrance last longer. Don’t spray a body mist on your clothes, since some products can stain. <\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\nCan I spray body mist in my hair?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\nYes, you can spray a body mist into your hair, but check the label first. Alcohol-based mists can be drying. Some companies make hair-specific fragrances that are less harsh.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\nAre body mists suitable for sensitive skin?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\nSome mists are suitable for sensitive skin. As I’m sure if your habit already, read the label before you invest in a mist. Look for products that have soothing ingredients or are specifically marked as hypoallergenic or suitable for sensitive skin. <\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\nWhat are some popular body mist brands?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\nBath & Body Works, The Body Shop, and Victoria’s Secret have large collections of body mists in various scents. <\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
