Winter Scents - Find Your Perfect Cold Weather Scent

As the seasons change, so should your fragrance. The reason that your fragrance should change every season is because each fragrance is designed through the notes that are used to compliment specific times of the year. Winter calls for rich, warm and bold scents that cut through the cold air and last throughout the day. Unlike summer scents which are light and fresh, winter fragrances tend to be deeper, spicier and more intense often featuring Woody, Amber and Gomand notes that are sweet that simultaneously bring a sense of warmth and comfort during the harsh winter months.

When choosing a winter scent focus on projection and longevity. In cold weather, lighter scents struggle to last, so opt for fragrances with stronger base notes that perform well in low temperatures. Look for these key elements: 

Popular winter notes: 

• Amber and vanilla, a warm slightly sweet comforting smell

• Woody notes ( sandalwood, cedar, oud) , rich, deep and long-lasting

• Spices ( cinnamon, cardamom, nutmeg, clove). Adds a warm festive touch.

• Leather and tobacco, gives an earthy and masculine sophisticated type of smell

• Dark fruits ( plum, fig, blackcurrant ) add depth and richness

With all of this considered, here are some of the best winter smells that embody warmth, longevity and boldness. 

• Stronger with you intensely by Emporio Armani

• Tom Ford tobacco vanille 

• Dior Homme intense

• Louis Vuitton Hombre nomade 

• Parfums De Marly - Althair
