Summer isn\u2019t over yet! If you\u2019re in the mood to expand your knowledge of summer fragrances, look no further than the two scents we\u2019re highlighting today. Drift\u2019s new Vanilla Shores<\/a><\/strong> takes a beach-adjacent approach to vanilla, airy and sun-warmed, while the bombshell Scentbird x Love Island Eau de Parfum<\/a><\/strong> goes the other direction entirely; it is a skin musk that is both fruity and woody.

As these two have completely different personalities, you\u2019ll have to ask yourself which version of summer you’re actually in the mood for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Drift Vanilla Shores<\/a>: vanilla, reimagined for summer<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Vanilla Shores is proof that vanilla can also be worn by the sea. Airy notes of sea salt crystals and vanilla orchid create a luminous, promising atmosphere, balanced out with vanilla cr\u00e8me, amber, and blonde woods for a warmth that feels like it\u2019s kissed by the sun. It’s one of the more interesting summer fragrances of the season precisely because it doesn’t play it safe with a straightforward citrus or aquatic formula. Instead, it takes a familiar, comforting note and gives it an edge that\u2019s meant to be worn by the beach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Notes: Sea Salt Crystals, Vanilla Orchid, Vanilla Cr\u00e8me, Sheer Amber, Blonde Woods<\/p>\n\n\n\n
