Summer in a Bottle: Vacation’s New Body Mists Are Too Good

Three scents. Endless compliments. You’ve just met your new olfactory obsession.
Words by HOMMEHEART Editors
If Glossier’s body mists are for the downtown girlies, Vacation’s new trio is for the SPF-slicked sun angels who know that smelling good is the new dressing up.
This summer, Vacation—the cult brand known for making sunscreen feel sexy again—released three new body mists: Grand Cuvee, After Sun, and “Vacation” by vacation. Each one is a vibe, a lifestyle, and a moment in a bottle.
Let’s break it down:
Grand Cuvee: A rich, velvety scent that smells like ambition with a hint of after-dark. One spritz and you're wearing vintage Mugler, sipping cold brew in a leather booth. It’s confident, caffeinated, and undeniably hot.
“Vacation” by Vacation: Cool, calm, collected. The scent equivalent of clean sheets and a double cleanse. This is the mist you wear when your hair’s still wet from the pool and your phone is on “Do Not Disturb.”
After Sun: Nostalgia in a bottle. Think warm skin, terrycloth towels, and the softest golden hour imaginable. It’s light, intimate, and oddly addictive.
We passed the scents around the HOMMEHEART office (yes, Intern #7 sprayed herself three times before anyone else could grab them), and the reviews were glowing. Here’s what the editors had to say:
Perrin, Editor-in-Chief:
“Grand Curvee smells like you’re getting flirted with by someone who owns an art gallery. Chic, bold, mysterious—I’m obsessed. I can’t wait to see how this performs in the colder weather.”
William, Assistant to the Editor-in-Chief:
“vacation” is my summer armor. It smells like chilled confidence, and it’s already in my gym bag, beach tote, and bathroom. Buy two.”
Sherrica, Beauty Editor:
“After Sun is the one. Clean, nostalgic, skin-hugging. It’s like warm sunscreen leftovers in the best way possible. I layered this over my Vacation sunscreen… let’s just hope I don’t walk out of this office with SPF 1000 and a tan line shaped like a martini glass.”
We suggest you try them all. These aren’t body sprays from the drugstore days—these are grown, sexy, and totally worthy of your summer scent wardrobe.
