"Personally, I would consider floral scents to remind them of the day and your flowers chosen for your special day. June is the ideal time as so many flowers are in bloom, filling the air with beautiful floral scents.
"Bridal outfit choices tend to be super-feminine and romantic, so I would be looking at scents with mixed floral bouquet perhaps with rose at the heart. Facets of violet have seen a big revival and lend of beautiful powdery soft and sweet element to fragrance compositions. Also, a mix of white florals, not only brings to mind the bridal dress but their radiant, solar like scents have a real burst of summer to them, so a fragrance with white flowers like jasmine, tuberose, orange blossom, etc, at its heart would also be a good choice.
A great way to wear these scents without being overpowering (especially if you are thinking they might be used on your big day), is body mists. These are also budget friendly fragrances and many come in fun and pretty packaging. The Scentology range of body mists has a few good choices for bridesmaids’ gifts: Lychee & Floral Bouquet is a perfect feminine floral bouquet; Tuberose & Spiced Pear has the radiant white florals; and Pomelo & Neroli or Orchard Fruits & Freesia have a summery combination of warming white florals and juicy fruits.
You could also consider the Bespoke Woman range (Superdrug) has Bergamot & Rose Musk or the new Rose & White Peach centred around a rose as good romantic choices. The new Sugar Violet & Sparkling Apple is another pretty soft floral option, and Mandarin Praline & White Flowers turns up the intensity with sunshiny white florals at its heart.
Other great mist options are the Miss So…? range. Miss So…? Secret Crush is a cute option with the musky soft fruit and delicate florals, and the more sweetly fruity floral Starlet in bridal white bottle as suitable options.
