With the colder months now upon us, it’s that time of year again to swap out our light, fresh scents for warmer, richer fragrances. And so today, I wanted to share some of my favorite perfumes to wear during the Fall and Winter.
These 5 perfumes are especially warm and inviting, and incorporate woodsy notes, rich floral notes, and even a little bit of spiciness! 😉
BCBG Max Azria Bon Genre
Bon Genre is a modern, somewhat playful perfume. It incorporates a mix of warm, spicy, floral, and fruity notes, which together form a perfectly balanced scent that’s perfect for everyday wear.

Flowerbomb Viktor & Rolf for women
Flowerbomb is a very rich and sensual perfume, and it packs a lot of punch! It’s base notes of musk and patchouli give this scent a rich, warm base, then the middle ‘explodes’ with floral notes (hence the name!).

Burberry Brit Eau de Toilette for women
And finally, my absolute favorite – Burberry Brit. It’s quite unique, with notes like lime, sugar, and mahogany. This is another perfume with a woodsy base, plus warm almond notes that stand out the most. The playfulness comes in with the lime, pear, sugar and peony, which together adds a nice citrus-y, sweet edge.
