The Chic Summer Scent You’ll Reach For All Season
There are summer fragrances… and then there are summer identities.
Ellis Brooklyn Isla Sirena Eau de Parfum falls into the second category.
Gifted by the brand, I’ve been testing this one consistently, and it has quickly become my go-to warm weather scent.
Isla Sirena is your ticket to the luxury island life.
The Notes:
Top: Blue Java Banana, creamy papaya, sea salt, lime
Mid: Coconut water, vanilla orchid, ginger flower
Dry: Vetiver, brown sugar, teak wood
The opening is what makes this fragrance special. That Blue Java banana note? Creamy, slightly tropical, and surprisingly elegant. It doesn’t read artificial. It reads sun-warmed and effortless.
The papaya adds softness, while the lime and sea salt keep everything fresh and breezy.
As it dries down, coconut water and vanilla orchid give it a smooth, luminous feel. Then comes the teak wood and vetiver—grounding the sweetness just enough so it feels polished instead of playful.
Performance & Wear
On my skin, it wears beautifully for daytime especially in heat. It projects lightly but leaves a soft trail that feels clean, airy, and subtly sweet.
This is not a heavy coconut fragrance. It’s refined tropical.
Perfect for:
- Beach vacations
- Brunch in linen
- Summer evenings by the water
- Everyday wear when you want to smell like effortless luxury
Launch & Pricing:
- $115 for 50ml
- $33 for 10ml
- Launching March 11 on the Sephora app (preview)
- Available March 12 on Sephora.com, Sephora stores, and ellisbrooklyn.com
HOT TIP: Layer with Ellis Brooklyn’s Guava Granita Eau de Parfum for a lush, tropical twist.
If you love warm weather scents that feel chic instead of sugary, this is one to experience.
Soft. Creamy. Sunlit.
And yes—I’ll be wearing this all summer.
