Don’t ask me why, because I have no idea, but I randomly remembered that Funshine Bear perfume existed at one point and I had it and it was my favorite. I did a quick search to see if it still exsisted anywhere. Alas, it’s not even on ebay.
All these years later, my favorite perfumes still smell sunny, usually with a mix of citrus and vanilla. I still want to smell like Funshine Bear. The only major deviation I’ve had from that, as far as favorites go, was Lipstick On from REPLICA by Maison Margiela. Another great one discontinued. But I digress… let’s talk sunshine scents.
And please do not come for me for my choice of pop-star endorsed fragrances. I know what I’m about. I’ve been wearing Miami Glow every summer since it was launched in 2005 and have no plans of stopping. Pink Sugar was my signature scent in high school, and their new Creamy Sunshine scent is not quite as sweet, with a hint of floral.

What does Demeter’s Sunshine smell like? Think of your favorite, most comfortable cotton T-Shirt left outside and warmed by the sun.
