If you’re looking to expand your fragrance collection, we always say every season requires a signature scent…
The summertime is all about fruitier profiles – a cocktail of citrusy notes or some creamy coconut for a tropical touch whipped up with fragrant florals like orange blossom, peony and jasmine.
Winter is when you pull out your rich, spicy and warmer scents, so think patchouli, tonka bean, leather, cinnamon, sandalwood and vanilla notes that’ll instantly transport you to nights in front of cosy, crackling fires with a cup of hot cocoa in hand.
Spring is when floral-fruity and ethereal green blends thrive, as these encapsulate the sparkling freshness of the season’s blooming botanicals.
And then there are autumn scents, which are the perfect mesh of winter and spring fragrances – usually floral or fruity top notes jazzed up by moody or boozy accords like woods, musks, nutmeg, vanilla and rum.
Read on as we round up the three bottles that recently secured a spot in our autumn fragrances wardrobe.

Bvlgari can do no wrong in our eyes, and this is a juicy fruity-floral dream. This youthful blend first greets you with a vibrant hit of bergamot and goji berries with hibiscus, water lily, and lotus at the heart of the composition for a fresh and airy lightness. But it’s the spicy and woody accords that have us going back for more – a creamy and comfy mix of pomegranate, cedarwood, musk, almond and masala chai that smells ridiculously yum!
A newbie from the Carolina Herrera brand – this bold and feminine scent is all about self-expression, authenticity, and embracing your inner youth. How does it differ from the former 212s? Well, this rendition is a little more playful and bubbly. Raspberry and mandarin orange make a zingy first impression, which is softened by a delicate burst of jasmine and orange blossom. And at the base, sandalwood and cedarwood add richness and milkiness for a totally tantalising trail.
Another new kid on the block that couples soft and rich aromas. The perfume opens with aromatic accents of fennel and gentian for a vibrant spicy-floral kick. Laced with jasmine, its velvety-smooth body is also enhanced with Madagascan Bourbon Vanilla, resulting in an addictively creamy and boozy closing that gently lingers on your skin for hours.
