Unmissable Scents for Spring!

January 21, 2025March 15, 2024 by Natalie

Six brand new fragrance fantasies for sunny mornings and electric evenings.

The perfect spring scent need not be a blast of clean or a burst of budding flowers. To us, the contrasts of spring can feel surreal, even delightfully disorienting. This calls for a bit of fragrant fantasy.

Some of our new spring arrivals are kaleidoscopes of colour and optimism. They’re perfect rabbit holes to trip down while you greedily savour every extra minute of sun.

Other scents beckon from mysterious underworlds. Humming with spirited energy, they implore us to break out of our winter cocoons and find new pleasures among the shadows.

Whether they’re delightful or devious, these new arrivals are perfect for the warm mornings and crisp evenings of spring.

WARM MORNINGS

**TUBEREUSE ASTRALE**
Maison Crivelli

A fruity tuberose constellation glimmers within a technicolour galaxy of soft osmanthus and weightless cinnamon leather. Surreal, playful and seriously complex.

**LOVE DELIGHT**
Amouage

A warm afternoon daydream of warm cake, rosewater sweets and roasted nuts steaming in shafts of Omani sun. Transportive, decadent, and easy to love.

**SPARKLING JO**
Vilhelm Parfumerie

A Gatsby-esque flight of fancy: quaffing vintage champagne and ginger highballs in an oak-panelled cabaret. Hedonism meets sophistication, as only Paris can provide.

CRISP EVENINGS

**ASKR**
Jorum Studio

An unusually sophisticated apparition of plush ozone, cool smoke and inky moss, this unclassifiable cocktail projects an endless hypnotic glow.

**BLACK MAGENTA**
D.S. & Durga

Airy-sweet pineapple hums a hot pink halo through an iris-tobacco haze, like neon in a dive bar window. The thrill of New York nightlife in a bottle.

Our Top 10 Fragrance Picks for Spring

January 17, 2025March 20, 2023 by Natalie

Ten fragrances which smell the way spring feels.

There’s a version of a spring scent that’s all freshness: easy breezy vibes. And certainly, we all want a bit of a refresh when the weather starts to warm. But as the snow melts and the days get longer, what’s really happening? The plant life around us, a complex network of stems, leaves, flowers, and trees, begins to upload nutrients from the thawing soil below. Cooling and zippy humidity, spicy and green energy, and the invisible songs of new flowers come storming into the air, like a crowd pouring back out to the theatre lobby after a secret show.

It’s this new vibrancy, both floral and earthy, chilled but warming, that these scents remind us of. Many contain these contrasts within their evolution – fading from sheer to delicious, from new green growth to a delicate coziness. All of them, we think, have the potential to make you feel renewed.

Neroli Nasimba EDP
**MAISON CRIVELLI**
*A modern, abstracted neroli casts long, honeyed shadows on an impossibly sheer leather accord. Clean, transcendent warmth.*

Chypre 21 EDP
**HEELEY PARFUMS**
*Chic as a French film and easy as a walk in the park, Heeley’s bracingly modern update of the “chypre” archetype is seamless, sumptuous, and suffused with light.*

Nectary EDP
**JORUM STUDIO**
*Fruit flesh and riotous flowers burst through the grey, settling on a snarling earthy musk below. Both cheekily old-school and shockingly new.*

You or Someone Like You EDP
**ETAT LIBRE D’ORANGE**
*Green and creamy, unique but breezy. This olfactory fantasy of an L.A. everywoman is unisex magic, merging skin with stem, ambition with freedom.*

Dupont Circle EDT
**MONSILLAGE**
*Crisp springtime in a bottle, as invigorating as a chilled breeze caressing rose bushes and old-growth barks. An optimistic inhale of new beginnings.*

French Flower EDP
**MATIERE PREMIERE**
*A buttery laser beam of freshly farmed, organic tuberose awakens and sings. A windows-open, painfully pretty new day dawns.*

Original Santal EDP
**CREED**
*A spicy, effervescent garden of ginger and herbs scattering on a weightless base of tonka and sandalwood. A perfect example of how dynamic classic perfumery can be.*

Molecule 01+ Black Tea EDT
**ESCENTRIC MOLECULES**
*A velvety-woody bassline anchors a spring-plucked airy tea note. A dewy mist hovering over magically magnetic skin.*

Sakura EDP
**ORMONDE JAYNE**
*Like the snowy pink piles of delicate blossoms falling from spring’s cherry trees: a watercolour in scent. Effortless, delicate, and delicious.*

Live Meaningful Work EDP
**MELEG PERFUMES**
*A rustic ode to earth and sunshine, this atmospheric scent cleanses and anchors in equal measure. The wild textures of a new frontier.*
