Is Aromara Salt Skin a dupe of Phlur Beach Skin?
ScentArt
Which Should You Buy?
This is a divisive 'beach in a bottle' scent. Some find it a beautifully complex, salty coconut with a hint of white florals, others a screechy, syrupy sunscreen nightmare. If you don't mind a bit of a sun lotion vibe, this could be your new summer go-to, but expect a wide range of opinions on its execution.
Salt Skin is Aromara's take on Phlur Beach Skin, the viral salty-coconut skin scent - tiare, sea salt and bergamot opening into coconut milk and lily of the valley, over vanilla, musk and sandalwood. Built at 35% Extrait so it actually lasts.

Seasons
A summer scent - airy and clear, designed for hot weather.
Occasions
While marketed as an EDT, reviews suggest performance akin to a longer-lasting body mist, with moderate projection. Its casual, beachy scent profile and sweet, creamy accords make it ideal for informal settings and dates, but less suitable for formal events or a professional office environment due to its relaxed nature.
