Summer Scents - Find Your Perfect Summer Scent

When the temperature rises, so should the freshness of your fragrance. Summer smells are all about light, refreshing and uplifting notes that complement the heat without becoming overpowering. Unlike winter fragrances which are deep and intense, some fragrances focus on citrus, aquatic and airy notes that keep you feeling and smelling fresh throughout the duration of the day no matter what you get up to. 

During warmer months, the lighter scents with good longevity and moderate projection work best. You want something that doesn’t feel heavy in the heat but still lasts throughout the day so you should look for these key elements.  

Popular summer notes:

• Citrus (Bergamont, lemon, grapefruit, orange) - energising and refreshing

• Aquatic and marine notes-clean and crisp, reminiscent of ocean breezes

• Green notes (basil, mint, vetiver, fig leaf) - adds a fresh, herbal touch

• Fruity accents (pineapple, melon, apple, coconut) - sweet but light and tropical

• Musk and light woods (cedar, sandalwood, white musk) - a soft, airy base that keeps things balanced. 

With all of this considered here are some of the top pics that are perfect for warm weather
