2. marc jacobs daisy eau so fresh spring
The perfect scent for transitioning from winter to spring, the new limited edition Daisy Eau So Fresh Spring Eau de Toilette ($100) is a brighter, fresher take on Marc Jacob’s cult-favorite Daisy. Green tea blossom, matcha and zippy pink pepper combine for an invigorating but not overpowering blend. As always, it also features Marc Jacob’s signature blossom bedecked packaging.
Daisy Eau So Fresh Spring Eau de Toilette – $100.
3. sisley paris izia la nuit
Sisley’s newest fragrance, Izia La Nuit ($135), smells a bit more mysterious than your average floral perfume. In addition to notes like freesia and magnolia, you will also find opulent wood, vanilla and leather, supported by patchouli and oak moss. Consider it your new going out scent – even if that still just means Zoom happy hours.
BUY NOW – $135.
4. gucci flora lavender gorgeous gardenia
The latest edition to the Gucci Flora Gorgeous Gardenia collection comes in a beautiful smoky lavender bottle – but don’t expect that kind of floral scent. Flora Lavender Gorgeous Gardenia ($85) pairs gardenia, red berry and pear with notes of frangipani, patchouli and brown sugar.
BUY NOW – $85.
5. kilian love don’t be shy extreme
You might be familiar with Kilian’s already iconic Love Don’t Be Shy, but the new Love Don’t Be Shy Extreme ($275) is much more intense – hence the word “extreme” in the name. Featuring the same signature marshmallow accord, the sensuality dialed up even more, thanks to a boost of rose and orange blossom notes.
BUY NOW – $275.
6. maison margiela replica bubble bath
Although Maison Margiela’s Replica collection is intended as a “reproduction of familiar scents and moments of varying locations and periods,” don’t expect the new Bubble Bath Eau de Toilette ($135) to smell like Mr. Bubble – rather, it’s the next best thing to spending an afternoon at your favorite spa. Filled with soap bubble accord, rose superessence, white musk and coconut milk accord, it’s far more sophisticated, but equally fun.
