I’m curious about sunscreen as a note or accord in perfumery.

I don’t mean beachy marine scents, sea salt, ocean breeze or aquatic summer fragrances. I mean the specific smell of freshly applied sunscreen: creamy, soft, slightly sweet, warm, clean, maybe a bit powdery or floral.

I’ve noticed that Escentric 02 by Escentric Molecules gives me a summery feeling that points a little in that direction, even though it doesn’t smell exactly like sunscreen to me.

What notes or materials usually create that sunscreen / sun lotion impression? Are there any fragrances where you think this accord is done especially well?

Hey everyone,

I’m looking for a fragrance that gets as close as possible to that typical creamy sunscreen smell.

I don’t mean the usual beachy scents with sea salt, ocean breeze, aquatic notes or that salty marine vibe. I’m looking more for the smell of freshly applied sunscreen: creamy, soft, slightly sweet, warm, clean, maybe a little powdery or floral. Basically sunscreen or sun lotion.

A summery feeling is totally fine, but I don’t want the focus to be on the ocean or salty beach air.

I’ve personally found one fragrance that kind of goes in that direction for me. It’s not exactly sunscreen, but it really reminds me of summer: Escentric 02 by Escentric Molecules.

Do you have any recommendations that fit this vibe?

Thanks!
