  • 6 Spring/Summer Fragrances You Need to Try!

    6 Spring Fragrances to try!

    Hello! Hi!

    I hope you’re having a better day than you were yesterday 🙂

    I’ve been allowing myself to try more new fragrances recently, especially with the transitioning seasons. I stepped into an expensive habit of purchasing perfumes about 6 months ago, and I haven’t looked back since. It’s a simple way to treat yourself and smell how you feel at the same time.

    Fragrances say a lot about a person, I think. When you take the time to pick out a perfume, it gives you a chance in the morning (if you’re not rushing) to peruse your collection. If you’re anything like me, it gives you the opportunity to think about which ones you want to purchase next.

    With Spring quickly melting into Summer, here are some of my recommendations for fragrances to match the seasons. They mostly fall into the sweet, fresh or floral families.

    1. Jo Malone // Peony and Blush Suede

    This fragrance is my everyday go-to. It smells clean and fresh, kind of like you just stepped out of the shower. I sometimes spray this on my (fake) hair so people can catch a whiff of it as I walk past them!

    2. Burberry // Her

    The sweet notes in this perfume make it something I would wear specifically in the daytime. It’s very fruity-floral but doesn’t last very long one me. To make it one last, I have to pair it with a jasmine oil as a layer.

    3. Dior // Miss Dior Blooming Bouquet

    This fragrance reminds me of the previous one, Burberry Her, except with more hints of freshness. Think of, a warm beach day mixed with a sweet (preferably alcoholic beverage), and this is your scent. This was one I bought for a trip, so every time I wear it I’m reminded of heat and sweets.

    My newest addition to my collection, this one is powdery and spicy and a little bit musky at the same time. I love putting it on when I’m freshly out of the shower and a little goes along way with this one.

    6. Ariana Grande // Cloud

    This one is the most affordable of the list. I use this mostly at night because the fragrance doesn’t last very long on me. It’s super sweet and is a perfect fragrance for those who like something lighter and not very overpowering.
