Mark the change of seasons by
switching out the fragrance you've been wearing all winter for something
fresh. Here, the best new, unexpected and subtly sexy scents for
spring.
It smells like: Powdery, bright and musky all at once, it's the fragrance your most sophisticated aunt, the world traveler with expensive taste, would wear.
Aerin Rose de Grasse
It smells like: Standing in the center of a rose garden after a rain and inhaling really deeply.
Anja Rubik Original
The notes: green tea, pink peppercorn, white lily, amber
It smells like: The kind of scent that body washes marketed as 'invigorating' and 'exhilarating' hope to be, but never are. It's clean, fresh, spicy and sexy without trying.
Kate Spade Walk on Air
The notes: linden blossom, neroli, bergamot, lily of the valley, magnola, jasmine, white iris
It smells like: A combination of makeup remover ("like my skin right after I've washed my face," said one nose in the office), a muted bouquet and the scent we imagine clouds to have.
Salvatore Ferragamo Emozione
The notes: bergamot, white peach, patchouli, suede, white musk
It smells like: Warm, comforting and understatedly glamorous, it reminds us of our mothers.

Armani / Prive Pivoine Suzhou

Krigler Charming California

It smells like: Sunshine and orange juice; more Florida than California.
By Kilian Sophie Matisse Art Edition Good Girl Gone Bad Splash of Neroli
