With autumn approaching, here are a selection of fragrances that feel particularly perfect for the season, from indulgent gourmands to smoky, woody scents, each offering a different take on the mood of autumn fragrance.
As the seasons shift, fragrance naturally becomes richer, warmer and more enveloping, with comforting notes of amber, spice, woods and creamy gourmand accords coming to the forefront. Whether you’re drawn to cosy, nostalgic scents that evoke crisp autumn days, sophisticated woody compositions or more sensual, statement-making fragrances for the evenings, this edit brings together a considered selection of scents to explore as we transition into the new season.
From new launches to modern interpretations of autumnal fragrance favourites, these are scents designed to complement the season and offer something for every fragrance wardrobe.
Maison Margiela REPLICA Autumn Vibes & REPLICA Jazz Club transports you straight into an autumnal forest, infused with pink pepper, coriander, rum, and many more warm, smoky scents. It’s essentially the scent of crisp leaves, fresh air and golden hour walks.
Viktor&Rolf Bonbon Caramel Crunch is made for those who like their fragrance deliciously addictive. Opening with buttery popcorn before melting into salted caramel and warm vanilla, it captures the comforting indulgence of a cosy cinema night, while still feeling playful and sensual.
And for something that challenges the traditional idea of a feminine fragrance, the NEW Diesel Only Desire puts desire and self-expression at the centre. Its signature metallic vanilla combines vanilla orchid and bourbon vanilla with rum, creating a creamy yet intense scent with a distinctive edge.
Together, they offer four very different ways to wear fragrance this autumn, ranging from sweet and gourmand to earthy, smoky and unapologetically sensual.
