My Favorite Perfumes for Every Occasion
Perfume is like a new dress, it makes you quite simply marvelous. - Estee Lauder
When I think about getting ready for the day, I can’t imagine feeling like I’m truly dressed and ready for success until I’ve spritzed on a perfume. There is something about a good fragrance that instantly lifts your mood and makes you feel like you can take on the day - it’s like you’re spritzing on an extra dose of confidence and personality. Over the last several years, I’ve been on the search for lovely, sophisticated and unique fragrances to have on hand for all occasions. I feel like I’ve finally found my favorites, and I’m sharing them below.
For Every Day: Aerin Amber Musk
A lovely musky vanilla scent perfect for just about every occasion… nine times out of ten, you’ll catch me wearing this. It’s great for every day, and layers up beautifully with the fragrances listed below for a custom fragrance.
Notes: Ambrox, Coconut Water, Rose Centifolia, Muguet, Benzoin, Sandalwood, Musk
For Date Night: Aerin Rose de Grasse
Elegant and sophisticated, feminine and floral, this fragrance is the perfect finishing touch to a date night outfit.
Notes: Ambrette Seeds, Rose Centifolia, Rose Otto Bulgarian, Rose Absolute, Ambrox, Musk
For Special Occasions: Aerin Ambrette de Noir
I wore this fragrance on both the day I got engaged and my wedding day, and it has truly become that “special occasion” fragrance for me. It’s a sophisticated and intoxicating floral and musky fragrance that will leave you feeling like a goddess.
Notes: Rose Infusion, Freesia, Incense, White Peony, Orange Flower Absolute, Jasmine Petals, Ambrette / Tonka Absolute Co-Distillation, Vanilla Bourbon, Cedarwood, Ambrox
For Summer: Aerin Mediterranean Honeysuckle
For those days when you want to be on the southern coast of Italy, just spritz this on and transport yourself to clear blue waters, Sicilian lemon and orange tree groves, and meadows of wildflowers.
Notes: Honeysuckle, Grapefruit, Bergamot, Mandarin, Lily of the Valley, Gardenia, Jasmine Sambac Absolute
For Lazy Days at Home: Juliette has a gun Vanilla Vibes
While I’m clearly a huge fan of Aerin fragrances, I’ve loved and worn this fragrance for years. I like to wear perfume even if I’m not going anywhere, and this fragrance does the trick. It’s a like but refreshing vanilla fragrance that will give you that “je ne sais quoi”.
Notes: Sea Salt, Vanilla, Orchid, Musk, Bezoin, Sandalwood, Tonka Bean
