Hair fragrance mists are having a moment – these are our favourites for summer holiday hair

Scent your hair (and skin) with these summer holiday inspired hair fragrances…


Hair fragrance mists have been around for a while but they’ve recently seen a huge surge in popularity, with brands from Diptyque to Sol de Janeiro jumping onboard the hair fragrance hype. In fact, John Lewis recently reported sales of hair fragrance mists have increased by 76%, solidifying the perfume alternative as a must-have in our fragrance wardrobe.

But why are hair fragrance mists so popular? Traditional perfumes can be eye-wateringly expensive, meaning that many luxury scents just aren’t that accessible. This is where hair fragrance mists come in. They offer a refreshing and often more affordable alternative to traditional perfumes, allowing you to experiment with new scents without breaking the bank. Typically more budget-friendly than their eau de parfum counterparts, hair mists are a savvy way to enjoy your favourite expensive fragrances or try out something entirely new.

Hair fragrances are also specifically formulated to be kinder to your tresses – as traditional fragrance formulas can be drying to your hair due to the high alcohol content. Enriched with hydrating oils and ingredients, these mists not only provide a spritz of fragrance but also nourish and protect your hair.
