Hi boo,
I recently had the most amazing chat with the amazing
for our "We Smell Live" series, and let me tell you - we went DEEP into our fragrance obsessions! For those who missed it, I've compiled the ultimate list of all the scents we swooned over. Because knowing which fragrance to wear is half the journey, right?When you want to feel put-together without trying too hard - The crisp white shirt of fragrances - Perfume Head Alone Together. Fresh, citrusy, and clean feeling
When you need confidence for important meetings - A marine incense that's surprisingly fresh, not smoky - Aedes de Venustas Coppola Azur.
For the gym or outdoor activities - A fresh, cologne-type scent at a great price point ($65) - Huron Cypress Vetiver. Classic masculine freshness.
For channeling your inner Parisian at a sidewalk café - All-natural ingredients with deep Paris love stories - Ormaie Tableau Parisian. Effortless chic in a bottle.
Perfect for plane rides when you don't want to offend - White rice and skin sap notes that are soft and delicate - Oddity Naked Dance.
When you're feeling competitive and sporty - Created for the ATP tennis finals - Xerjoff Torino 24. Sporty elegance in fragrance form.
For when you need comfort that draws people in - The vanilla gourmand everyone's obsessed with - Perfume Head La La Love. Makes people ask, "What ARE you wearing?"
For making people do a double-take - A tuberose cappuccino (yes, you read that right) - Valentino Private Talk. Gorgeously unexpected.
Perfect for morning meetings needing a boost - The most luminous, sparkly yet deep citrus with ambery, floral notes - Guerlain Bergamote Fantastico.
For springtime brunches - A light, juicy, almost transparent sweet juiciness - Guerlain Pêche Mirage. The most elegant version of a perfectly ripe peach.
When you need to be the sexiest person in the room - The sexiest fragrance known to man. Period. - Le Lion de CHANEL. Pure confidence in a bottle.
For first impressions when subtle magnetism matters - The ultimate "skin but better" with that magical pheromone quality - Eccentric Molecules 01. Layer it under anything or wear alone.
When you want effortless elegance that works anywhere - The best soft sandalwood of all time - Diptyque Tam Dao. "Skin but better" in its most perfect form.

For casual coffee dates - A skin scent that's solar-adjacent but not quite - 2787 Perfumes Per Se. Feels like you but elevated.
