Do you like compliments? Then you'll love this sensual scent. It's complex and fun but not too much for daily wear.
GLOSSIER

Key notes: Musk, ambrette, ambrox, iris root, pink pepper
This unique scent was formulated to adjust to its wearer to complement their individual body chemistry. Its warm base notes pack a fragrant punch that wears evenly, meaning the scent won't change over the course of the day—nor will its potency. What you spritz is what you get.
LE LABO
Rose 31 Eau De Parfum
Fragrance family: Floral
Key notes: Rose absolute, cumin, vetiver, musks
This soft floral composition smells exactly how you want a rose fragrance to smell: smooth, creamy, and organic. It's lovely from the moment you put it on until you wash it away.
ELLIS BROOKLYN
Salt Eau de Parfum
Fragrance family: Fresh
Key notes: Ylang-ylang, Tahitian tiare, ambergris
This fragrance is the epitome of salty skin and crashing waves. You'll instantly be transported to a long summer beach day when you wear it.
GUCCI
Bloom Eau de Parfum
Fragrance family: Floral
Key notes: Rangoon creeper, tuberose, jasmine bud
As you might have imagined while reading the ultra-floral notes present in this bottle, this fashion person–approved scent is like a bouquet of fresh flowers for your skin. The name really says it all.
DEDCOOL
Milk Layering Fragrance
Fragrance family: Floral
Key notes: Bergamot, white musk, amber
If you've ever wondered what L.A. cool people smell like, look no further than this clean, unisex fragrance. Milk is actually the secret sauce that's laced throughout all of the brand's scent offerings, so it can be worn alone or layered with the others. Either way, the intoxicating scent lasts all day and even takes on a new personality on the skin after you've bathed.
MAISON MARGIELA
Replica By the Fireplace
Fragrance family: Warm, spicy
Key notes: Clove oil, chestnut accord, vanilla accord
This warm scent really does smell like you've perched by a fire. It's smoky and sweet at the same time, making it a complex selection fit for fragrance aficionados who can appreciate a bold statement.
ATELIER COLOGNE
Pomélo Paradis Cologne Absolue
Fragrance family: Citrus
Key notes: Pink pomelo, mandarin, black currant bud, Moroccan orange blossom, Bulgarian rose essence, mint
You'll need more than a modest spritz or two to give this tangy, fruit-forward scent the boost it needs to stick around all day, but once you're adequately doused, you'll be a walking orchard. Don't hold back for fear of going overboard.
DIOR
Sauvage Parfum
Fragrance family: Earthy, woody
Key notes: Bergamot, amber, vanilla
If you were a fan of Dior's previous iteration of Sauvage, you can expect a similar scent that's even more concentrated and lasts even longer. Expect a zesty, leathery, sandalwood-infused experience.
CHANEL
Gabrielle Eau de Parfum
Fragrance family: Floral
Key notes: Jasmine, orange blossom, grasse tuberose, ylang-ylang
This fragrance is like date night in a bottle. It's bold and romantic, and while you could easily spritz it every day, we think it's best reserved for those moments when you want to elevate your entire vibe.
DOLCE & GABBANA
The Only One
Fragrance family: Warm, spicy
Key notes: Citrus, violet, coffee
Lively, fresh, and juicy are all accurate descriptors for this scent. It's sophisticated, like a tweed suit, but also charming and sensual. It really does deserve a small group setting to get its fair share of attention.
