5 Dreamy Summer Fragrances To Try Right Now

We have a summer skincare routine and tweak our makeup bags, so it makes sense that we’d also change our perfume. Some people have fragrance wardrobes so they can switch up their scent depending on the occasion, season or mood. Floral Street founder Michelle Feeney is an advocate for this. “Fragrance plays a major part in my everyday life. From burning a clean, grapefruit bloom candle while I do early morning yoga to create optimistic energy to matching my scent to my mood and what I’m wearing each day,” she tells us.

Whether you want to find a summer perfume or extend your fragrance wardrobe, there are plenty of scents dedicated to the warmer months. Diptyque releases a limited-edition collection every year, while Tom Ford has a handful of luxury scents inspired by the Italian Riviera, and Phlur crafts scents inspired summer fruits like strawberry and mango.

How To Find Your Perfect Summer Fragrance

Choosing a fragrance at any time of the year is always a personal decision. Some of us gravitate towards bright, cheery floral perfumes, while others like to live in holiday-mode permanently from May to September with the help of coconut and musk notes. Knowing which fragrance notes you like will go a long way with helping you find the best summer scent.

If you’re not sure which fragrance family or notes you like, shopping for a summer perfume online might be tricky. We have created helpful guides to the Best Byredo Fragrances and What Every Floral Street Fragrance Smells Like, but we highly recommend popping into your local Space NK store to have a spritz and a sniff. Our beauty advisors are on hand to help guide you through our fragrance brands, which include Boy Smells, Jo Loves, Maison Margiela Replica and many more.

In the meantime, here are some of the scents we’re enjoying right now – from the summer classics to the newly launched.
