What's your go-to scent for spring?


What’s your go-to scent for spring? Share!
In my mind, spring is right now, even though technically that’s not true at all. I guess that’s the result of the beauty industry and how the collections come out. I just know that it’s cold out, and the scents I want to wear are cozy. I’m really liking Tom Ford Plum Japonais and Tobacco Vanille.

Scent and colors aren’t seasonal for me, so whatever I feel like, I guess. (Not to mention it’s summer here — 110 degrees Fahrenheit as I’m typing this)

Spring – HA!!! I just woke up to about another inch of snow! My go to scent is probably Jessica McClintock (I think it’s the original one she came out with) – it smells of lily of the valley, which is one of my favourite flowers and certainly a flower of springtime!

I like Cacharel Eden for something fresh and Sohum Tahitian Gardenia if it’s hot because that scent never become oppressive or stale smelling.

Lol, spring. Can’t say I’m quite feeling it right now. It’s been -24 degrees celcius here this past week and we have about three feet of snow.

Anyway, when spring arrives in about three months I’ll be wearing something very light, fresh and fruity like Burberry Brit Sheer.

Bulgari Rose Essentuelle and DKNY Be Delicious. I also LOVE Iris scents like Prada Infusion d’Iris Eau de Toilette and Chloe Love Chloe for wearing during Spring.

Marc Jacobs Daisy! But maybe that’s because I got that perfume for my birthday in October and I’ve been dying to wear it this spring. I have been wearing it a bit this winter but I’m wanting to save it until the warmer months!

For me scents aren’t very dependent on season, but if I want something very light and fresh, I often reach for L’Occitane Green Tea. I also quite like The Body Shop’s White Musk Libertine for a light scent. My favourite scents year round though are BPAL Snake Charmer, Kat Von D Sinner and Illamasqua Freak, they’re mostly considered quite dark, night time fragrances, but I don’t care about that, I’ll wear them all day every day :p

My collection has what I feel a good variety of seasons lol – for spring I usually reach for Miss Dior Cherie, or something like Harajuku lovers Love or Music. Stella is always a favourite for me but I find it’s a refreshing scent that would be perfect for spring as well.

scents aren’t a seasonal thing for me.
For scents i only own one scent at a time and wear it until i finish the product and either repurchase it or try something new.
i am loving Thymes fragrance in Clary Sage Tea, i prefer aromatic(lavender, rosemary, sage), woody (cedar, sandalwood), green scents (eucaplyptus, green tea, spruce). I dont like floral scents.

1. Annick Goutal Ce Soir Ou Jamais
2. L’Artisan Chasse Aux Papillions
3. Britney Spears Cosmic Radiance
4. Guerlain Le Petite Robe Noir EDT

Come spring, I like floral scents like Tom Ford’s Violet Blonde and Shanghai Lily and Tocca’s Giulietta. It’s been in the eighties this week and so I’ve actually been wearing them, but when the temps return to normal, I’ll be wearing Frederic Malle’s Musc Ravageur again.

I don’t typically wear fragrance, but Estee Lauder Bronze Goddess reminds me of the warmer months. And when it comes to candles Bath & Body Works Market Peach and Yankee Candle Pink Sands always get me really excited.

It is snowy here, and the polar vortex may be coming back, so it’ll be a while before I get to wear my choice! My spring/summer fragrance is Chanel Chance Eau Tendre. I love this stuff, and have adored it since years before I actually bought it. I know it’s a popular fragrance, but this stuff just smells so good on me. I don’t wear it in the winter though, because it doesn’t smell the same.

Spring is happening now with the arrival of warm weather in parts of the country. I like florals in spring, especially orange blossom, carnation, and violet notes. La Chasse aux Papillons, Chanel 22.

this spring i am all about white tea. it’s hard to track down one that really smells like white tea, particularly without any musk. i can NOT deal with musk.
i also get into a “honey” mode in the later spring and just sniffed The Body Shop’s “Morgina” which smells to me like sweet honey. I can see a haul coming in my future. . . . :D!

I know they are not new scents but I’m currently in love with Chanel Chance Eau Tendre and Versace Yellow Diamond. I think both will be my Spring selections this year.

I know they are not considered “New” scents but I’m in love with Chanel Eau Tendre and Versace”s Yellow Diamond. They will be my go-to Spring scents this year.

Dating myself AGAIN! The spring classic Nina Ricci L’Air Du Temps + Marilyn Miglin Destiny. But I want SUMMER! For Comptoir’s Aqua Motu: reminds me of Nars’ island spread. Creed’s Erolfa, and Heeley Sel Marin. Gotta get into Brosius’s north atlantic scents, maybe even at the beach, 1966, the year i graduated from HS….some BPAL aquatics. OMG, I’m not just OLD, I’m an old GUY!
