Our Picks for the Best Perfumes for Women This Summer
We’re getting right into it. If you’re looking for your next fragrance obsession, we’re introducing you to some of the standout scents available on Scentbird this season.
FUGAZZI Pomegranoudh Extrait de Parfum
If you watch to catch the attention of the object of your affection this summer, Pomegranoudh is an alluring combination of sweetness and smokiness. It balances juicy sweetness with smoky depth, opening with pomegranate, bergamot, and red fruits before revealing rich oudh and patchouli.
GIVENCHY L’Interdit Eau de Parfum
An homage to the original from 1957, this fragrance balances a radiant white floral bouquet of orange blossom, jasmine, and tuberose with darker notes of vetiver and patchouli. Timeless and elegant, it encourages you to embrace your individuality.
JULIETTE HAS A GUN Banana Rush Eau de Parfum
Remember when we wrote all about banana, matcha, and marshmallow perfumes? Banana Rush proves that gourmand fragrances can be playful and sophisticated at the same time. Ripe banana and maple syrup meet creamy coconut, frangipani, vanilla, and sandalwood for a warm, sensual finish that never feels overly sweet.
L’ORCHESTRE Piano Santal
Dreamy and skin-like, Piano Santal wraps white sandalwood, warm milk, and soft musks into an intimate fragrance. It’s a quiet scent with an addictive quality that reveals itself gradually throughout the day.
L’ORCHESTRE Bouquet Encore
Inspired by the energy of a late-night dance floor, Bouquet Encore pairs jasmine and tuberose with vibrant timut pepper and vanilla. The result? A floral fragrance that feels electric and impossible to forget–perfect for summer nights out.
M.MICALLEF Notorious XO
Inspired by the craftsmanship of exceptional cognac, Notorious XO blends cognac, cinnamon, tonka bean, sandalwood, and praline into something rich, charismatic even. It was, after all, inspired by the craftsmanship of creating the finest cognac.
CONFESSIONS OF A REBEL Rough Rider
Tension is Rough Rider’s middle name. It combines bergamot leaf, rugged lavender, vanilla tobacco, ripped denim accord, and raw amber to create a textured fragrance that is rebellious and earthy, yes, but also unexpectedly refined.
MATIERE PREMIERE Crystal Saffron
Saffron takes on a brighter, more contemporary character in Crystal Saffron. Enhanced by airy musks, ambroxan, and incense, the fragrance feels radiant and textured, with an addictive quality that keeps you coming back for more.
MATIERE PREMIERE French Flower
French Flower captures the intoxicating beauty of tuberose at night. Ginger, green pear, and tea leaf bring freshness to the floral heart, resulting in a fragrance that feels luminous and absolutely captivating.
MATIERE PREMIERE Vanilla Powder
Vanilla Powder reimagines vanilla through a contemporary lens. With notes such as vanilla absolute from Madagascar, coconut powder, palo santo oil from Ecuador, and musk, the perfume is creamy and comforting, close to the skin musks we all love.
Why Sampling Is the Best Way to Discover New Perfumes
Fragrance is deeply personal, and a scent can smell completely different once it meets your skin. Sampling gives you the freedom to discover the best perfumes for women at your own pace; wearing it over the course of a day allows you to experience how it evolves from the first spray to the final dry down, helping you decide whether it’s truly a match for you. With Scentbird, fragrance discovery has never been easier: you can easily explore designer, niche, and emerging fragrance brands without committing to a full-size bottle.
