Natural perfumes (formulated with at least 98%+ natural ingredients) are having their moment in the sun. Offering a return to the artful simplicity of traditional fragrance-making, natural perfumes celebrate pure botanical oils that have been researched to have powerful effects on mood and spirit. 

Unlike synthetic fragrances, which often conceal harmful chemicals behind the ingredient term, ‘Fragrance’, natural scents are cleaner, safer, and kinder to your body and the planet.

Scent is such a big part of the BONDI WASH experience so we we love trying new natural fragrances to add to our collection. Here we share the latest natural perfumes we are loving for this season - with a fragrance to evoke each of our favourite summer moments.
