I posted a photo of my perfume tray yesterday on Instagram stories and got a bunch of questions on my go to fragrances. Perfume has long been one of my favorite beauty accents to buy. I don’t feel complete in the morning or before bed without a spritz of my favorite scent. I completely belive that you can gain a confidence just from the scent you are wearing. Although I have a big collection I wear the same few every day and have a couple of heavier options for the evening.
I have been wearing this scent for years and will never tire it. Like all Byredo scents, it feels incredibly unique. I love how subtle this is – I often forget I am wearing it, but it is hands down the one I get the most questions about and compliments on. I often get asked how you can smell these scents in person because not every store carries the samples. I always go to Space NK or Bloomingdales, but you can buy a small sample or the rollerball version online. They aren’t cheap, but maybe worth it if you are unsure or want to try a few different options.
Another one of my daily options. Orange blossom is my favorite scent from Jo Malone, I love the perfume and the candle version. It smells so fresh and works all year long. It is such a good layering scent because the light citrus pairs so well with an array of scents. Plus Kate Middleton loves it so you know its good!
This subtle woody scent is so beautiful! I wear it every week, but not every day. I love pairing it with Orange Blossom and it isn’t too heavy to wear as an everyday perfume. I will also note a lot of my other perfumes are from Jo Malone limited collections. Those always go so fast and are some of my favorite scents that I use sparingly. Be on the lookout because they come out with a few different ones throughout the year!
I was never a huge fan of rose scents, but I got this last year with the matching hand cream. It quickly became a favorite of mine to spray on after the shower or before bed. It is such a soft rose that doesn’t smell powdery (my nightmare with perfumes!) or artificial. I have also found it lasts all day!
Le Labo: Santal 33
This is an incredibly popular fragrance for good reason. It really does last all day and is the most heavenly rich santal scent. It is quite expensive, but a little bit goes a long way and it comes in a few different sized bottles. Perfect for an everyday or evening scent!
{For evening scents I always love a heavier Chanel fragrance. I have worn Chance since high school and it is still one of my favorites!}
