As anyone who has seen an episode of Love Island knows, one of the best parts is watching how each cast member gets ready.
Whether it’s for a date, a recoupling or a potentially fiery chat, we’re all too familiar with avidly watching their beauty routine to see which skincare product, eyeshadow palette or hair styling tool they use to help get their glam, villa-ready looks.
One thing we can’t pick up from watching them though? Which perfume they go for. And let’s face it; nothing completes an outfit quite like a great scent, which is why we were determined to find out exactly which fragrances the Love Island All Stars cast have been wearing amidst the drama and romance of the series.
Thankfully, Boots is one hand to give us the low down – they keep the villa stocked with beauty must-haves, after all – and they’ve let us in on which perfumes several cast members consider their must-haves
For Georgia Harrison, her go-to scent is Marc Jacobs Perfect, £96.90 here, which has top notes of rhubarb and daffodil, heart notes of almond milk and base notes of cashmeran, making it an unexpected clash of fresh florals and calming smooth notes, that’s said to be a comforting floral scent that celebrates optimism, self-acceptance and originality – perfect for taking on the drama of the villa.
It’s also currently reduced from its usual price of £114 over on the Boots website, not to mention you get a free gift when you shop selected Marc Jacobs products, making now a great time to snap it up.
For bombshell Sophie Piper, her perfume of choice is Gucci’s Flora Gorgeous Jasmine, £110.50 here (was £130), which is a light, cheerful fragrance with zesty top notes of mandarine essence, heart notes of grandiflorum jasmine and magnolia accord, and base notes of sandalwood.
It’s not just the girls who’ve been sharing their go-to fragrances, as Toby Aromolaran has also given a sneak peek into what he smells like in the villa revealing that his favourite fragrance is the Burberry Hero, £92.65 here (was £109), although you can also currently snap it up with an even bigger saving at Sephora, where it’s currently reduced to £87.14 here.
If you’re looking for some inspiration for a Valentine’s gift for your partner, Casey O’Gorman’s favourite fragrance is a guaranteed winner after he shared how much he loves wearing YSL’s Y, £80.75 here (was £95), which has top notes of apple accord, bergamot essence, ginger essence, elemi essence and aldehydes, heart notes of geranium absolute, juniper essence, sage essence, lavender essence and base notes of vetiver essence, frankincense essence and operamide.
Now you never need to wonder again exactly what it smells like in the Love Island villa!
