Introducing Seasonal Scents Into Your Beauty Regime
Introducing Seasonal Scents into your Beauty Regime
Just as the change of seasons brings with it changes in fashion, skincare, and makeup colors so too does it have an influence on perfume choices. It’s smart and can be fun to introduce seasonal scents into your beauty regime. As the temperature changes with the seasons so should the scent you choose to wear. Let’s take a closer look at seasonal scents.
The blustery cold of winter causes the molecules in scents to be less volatile which simply means that a quick spritz will go the furthest during this season. During the long windy and snow filled days of winter look for a scent that is heavy, spicy, aromatic and contains ginger and sandalwood. The need to reapply a fragrance of this sort is often not necessary during the wintertime. When it comes to fragrance, think heady, wild, exotic, voluptuous, passionate and oh so sensual for the winter months. The best fragrances for the cold climate are the oriental fragrances that contain amber, rich vanilla wisps and strong notes of musk. Choosing a fragrance with sweet woody notes such as rosewood intermingled with smoky incense is also a good bet for chilly weather temperatures as it has a lasting effect. Three excellent choices for winter fragrances include the timeless Chanel No. 5 (which is made from aldehydes of ylang ylang, woody vetiver and jasmine), Cinnabar by Estee Lauder and Opium by Yves Saint Laurent.
Spring is the season of renewal and new life. Flowers are blossoming, grass is growing and the air is alive with new beginnings. Spring is considered to be the season of “garden delights” and for this reason we naturally are drawn to scents that are both sweet and fresh. Reach for floral scents in the springtime that make you come alive. Delicate and dewy scents that contain honeysuckle, freesia, lilac, violet and wild rose are springtime winners as are heady and lush fragrances that contain the ingredients gardenia, jasmine, jonquil and lily. For the season of colorful pastels some fragrance suggestions are Wisteria by Chantecaille which contains a soft, elegant combination of freesia, orange blossom and dewy green accents; Mimosa pour Moi which is delicately floral but with a touch of the exotic in the form of blackcurrant, green notes and violet; Dolce
