If you were like me, growing up in the Victoria’s Secret Body Spray era, you’ll know immediately why I’m excited about their comeback in the past few years. I admit that during my tenure as beauty editor, I mostly liked Eau de Parfums because they tend to have longer lifespans and projections, but now many body sprays can compete with my more expensive perfumes. Who would think!
My latest obsession belongs to my favorite clean and sustainable beauty brand recently released body mist Josie Maran. I’ve been a devotee of Maran’s for years, but the main reason is that the smell is beautiful and natural. I don’t know how she made it, but every product is so fragrant that I can hardly believe there is no added synthetic fragrance. Maran brings this clean spirit into her latest work, a set of four fogs that covers the brand’s signature scent. Each body fog also contains the brand’s star ingredient: 100% pure argan oil. If you are looking for a juicy summer smell or love Maran’s products and want a way to smell the product during the day and about, then look for nothing. Everything you need to know about Josie Maran’s latest summer launch.
Vanilla vibezzz
Josie Maran
Perfume mist in vanilla vibezzz
Key Notes: Vanilla beans, juniper berries, Cedarwood
The smell is obviously heavy, but I love it. When I got the brand’s body butter sample in this scent, I smelled it first and immediately knew I needed full size. While vanilla beans are star-studded, the addition of juniper berries and cedar wood takes it root and gives it a sweet, earthy aroma that can sustainably use the skin.
Thanks to argan oil, the body fog is really moisturizing – it just melts into the skin. A perfume expert once told me Oil can help your fragrance last longerso reward points were obtained for this. This smell is super light and ventilated and I like to atomize with other bodies. That’s their greatness. You can layer two or three of them, which is by no means too much.

Everyone washes now! Moisturizing Mousse in Citrus Herbs Complete Cleanser
While this body smells slightly different from the vanilla vibezzz, it still has the same key notes. This is my favorite weight ever. It provides perfect hydration, aroma and foam, which are three things I always look for in the embodiment.

Josie Maran
The scent of naked oranges
Key Notes: Pixie Tangerine, pink grapefruit, brown sugar
Among all the iconic aromas of Maran, this is my favorite. It’s hard to choose because they’re all good, but it just strikes the perfect balance between fruity and sweetness, with the tones of orange, grapefruit and brown sugar. It’s a real summer smell, and it’s such a treat. I like to combine it with Golden Hour or vanilla vibezzz to add some uniqueness to the fragrance.

Grinded Argan Oil Body Butter, Nude Photo Orange
What I love about Maran’s products is that you can buy huge supplemental gold so you don’t have to keep buying a new bathtub. It allowed me to stock up so easily and after I ran out I bought a lot of intrabody butter in this aroma.
Golden Time
Josie Maran
Golden Hour perfume
Key Notes: Amber, white musk, Santal
Golden Hour is Maran’s latest signature aroma, which is tied with nude oranges and ranks number one on my favorite list. It smells like a luxury perfume with amber, white musk and Santal scents on it, but still has the signature sweetness of Maran. It was inspired by the California coast and it captures the atmosphere perfectly. Combining it with nude orange mist is my most worn combination lately.
Josie Maran
Golden Hour Whipped Argan Oil Body Butter
I quickly experienced this body butter because the smell was so magical. I also have to spend a minute talking about this decadence and luxury of the body on the skin. It contains argan oil, avocado oil, shea butter and scaly oil that wraps the body in a hydrated cocoon all day and night.
Bohemian
Josie Maran
Bohemian fig perfume
Key Notes: Vetiver, Vanilla orchid, Bergamo
Bohemian figs are earthy and fresh, reminding me of one of my favorite scents –Philosopher of Diptyque. Both smells very figs, but still smells fresh and is perfect for seasonality. I usually just wear this alone because it doesn’t match much with other people, but don’t worry – it works the same as the smell alone.
Josie Maran
Sugar and Moroccan Oil Body Scrub
I also have body scrubs in this summer scent and I love using it at home spas. It’s a physical scrub, but so moisturized, I often don’t have to use a moisturizer afterwards.
