Bella Hadid and Her New Summer Aesthetic: How a Fragrance Can Capture the Feeling of "Golden Hour"

Summer has its own language. It speaks through warmth on the skin, a light breeze in the hair, and that special kind of light that turns even an ordinary day into something almost cinematic. This is exactly the idea Bella Hadid captures with the launch of the new body and hair mist collection from her brand Orebella.

Summer has its own language. It speaks through warmth on the skin, a light breeze in the hair, and that special kind of light that turns even an ordinary day into something almost cinematic. This is exactly the idea Bella Hadid captures with the launch of the new body and hair mist collection from her brand Orebella.

And this is not just another fragrance line. It is an attempt to bottle the mood of the season.

“SOLARS”: when scent becomes a memory of the sun

The new limited-edition duo is called SOLARS — a name that already sounds like a promise of warmth.

Orebella continues to expand its philosophy of bi-phase, alcohol-free, botanical, water-based fragrances. A modern approach to perfumery where scent does not simply sit on the skin but interacts with it — softly, almost intimately.

“With ‘SOLARS,’ I wanted to bottle that feeling of golden light on the skin, the warmth that lingers long after the sun goes down,” Bella Hadid explains.

And it does not sound like marketing — more like a personal summer diary.

Two fragrances — two summer stories

The SOLARS collection introduces two distinct compositions, each carrying its own seasonal mood.

CANDIED SAND — the sweet warmth of skin

This fragrance feels like a day when time slows down.

A musky gourmand composition built around notes of:

• coconut milk
• jasmine
• vanilla bean
• sandalwood butter
• cedarwood

The formula is enriched with aloe water, adding a sense of freshness and care.

CANDIED SAND is a fragrance of softness — of sun-kissed skin, warm sand, and the feeling of finally exhaling after a long week.

NEROLI’S HALO — fresh air by the sea

The second scent carries a completely different mood.

A floral citrus composition with neroli, bergamot, lemon, and orange blossom, enhanced with sea salt and soft woody undertones.

NEROLI’S HALO feels like a morning by the water: clean air, light on the horizon, and the sense of a new beginning.

It is a fragrance of movement, lightness, and openness.

Fragrance as emotion, not accessory

Orebella continues a growing shift in perfumery: scent is no longer about a strong trail, but about a state of being.

The alcohol-free bi-phase formula makes these mists closer to skincare than traditional perfume. They become almost part of the body — not covering it, but enhancing it.

And there is something very contemporary about that: less intensity, more presence.

A summer you can carry with you

The idea behind SOLARS is not only in the fragrances themselves but in the atmosphere they evoke.

It is about slowing down. About warmth that doesn’t disappear when the sun sets. About moments where there is nowhere else you need to be.

Bella Hadid describes it as a “love letter to summer.” And indeed — the collection feels personal, almost intimate, as if each bottle holds a fragment of a memory.
