The Best Autumn Scents: Notes of Citrus, Spices and Wood
With the arrival of autumn, not only does the colour of the leaves on the trees change, but so do our desires — we want to surround ourselves with maximum comfort. Not only do stylish dark clothes, umbrellas, and coffee help with this, but perfumes also help. Here is how to choose perfumes for autumn, including a selection of the best fragrances in this article.
Zielinski & Rozen Musk
Perfumer and founder of the brand Erez Zielinski Rozen created musk as the embodiment of the eternal movement of nature and simplicity, united by five types of musk and bright accents. In this charismatic and sensual fragrance, spicy and woody musk, which has aphrodisiac properties, combines delicate white musk and expressive civet. The composition is complemented by fresh notes of lime, pink rhubarb and bitter grapefruit, and the green tartness of hops and balsamic Javanese vetiver gives vitality. Warm notes of amber, sensual patchouli, and noble Texas cedar complete this palpable and impressive perfume trail.
Matiere Premiere Ensens Suave
Suave is a luxurious oriental composition devoid of hints of synthetics or chemical notes. As with every fragrance from the exclusive collection, this perfume is based on the dominant chord around which the entire olfactory pyramid is built. In this case, it is the passionate and most explicit smell of the attractive Somali resin embodied in the incense composition. The top of the pyramid is decorated with coffee extract from Venezuela, the heart of the perfume is the seductive absolute of labdanum from Andalusia, and the train is crowned with an expressive animalistic chord with rare Lao benzoin.
Ex Nihilo Blue Talisman
"Blue Talisman" has a classic bottle shape but has been updated with a fresh colour scheme with a blue gradient that perfectly reflects the fragrance's name. Inside this elegant bottle is hidden a bright and energetic explosion of bergamot and mandarin citrus notes, complemented by juicy ripe pear and a slight hint of ginger. The fragrance's heart reveals an orange blossom and a synthetic georgywood note, harmoniously merging with a musky and woody base enriched with a characteristic Akigalawood note.
What flavours should I combine in autumn?
In the cool season, perfume compositions can be safely layered and mixed on the skin, but this should be done with caution. For such experiments, choosing two types of perfumes with a minimalistic composition, where one fragrance dominates, is preferable. Citrus and woody notes are an excellent example of a harmonious combination. Citrus, floral, green and other light aromas are combined successfully, creating unique and memorable perfume ensembles.
Histoires de Parfums 1740
The absolute audacity is captured in the smell, which is revealed by notes of leather and Indian wormwood, evoking the era of revolutionary changes and free moods. Like an intriguing novel, this fragrance awakens in each of us a thirst for freedom and independence, skillfully mixing elegance and provocation. Attractive and unique, it envelops its owner with an aura of mystery and an undaunted spirit worthy of the Marquis de Sade himself.
Vilhelm Parfumerie Dear Polly
For loving hearts, distance does not matter. The aroma of black tea brewed precisely the way she prefers, waking up to the morning sun rays that slowly disperse the remnants of the night darkness still enveloping you. Black Ceylon tea warms from the inside, and the sensual musk melts gradually on the skin. The fragrance's top notes reveal bergamot and apple, the heart notes are Ceylon tea, and the base notes are oak moss, musk and black ambergris.
Nasomatto Silver Musk
The exquisitely delicate fragrance of Silver Musk is ideal for both summer and spring days. Still, its charm does not leave anyone indifferent, even in the cold season. This refined musk, saturated with multifaceted notes, gives the image an unobtrusive appeal and charm. As if woven from hidden desires, perfume from the Netherlands envelops the skin, giving it pure elegance and seductive magic.
