Giorgio Armani Beauty Sí Fiore Eau de Parfum 

Yes, we know we take an hour and some change to get ready in the morning. But some days we just want to seem low-key, OK?! And on those days, you can bet we’re breaking out this Armani scent. It says we’re effortlessly chic, despite the fact that everyone knows that we’re high-maintenance AF. An added bonus? The bottle looks pretty damn pretty on our vanity. 

Valentino Donna Born in Roma Eau de Parfum 

If sweet and sassy is your M.O., spritz on a bit of this Valentino fragrance before heading out the door. Notes of jasmine and vanilla bourbon indicate you have a feminine and sweet side. But a trio of modern wood scents make sure everybody knows you mean business. We like to think of it as dainty with a splash of edge.

It says that you’re empowered, outspoken and fearless. So enjoy the floral scents of pink peppercorn, bergamont, rose and jasmine, put on your power suit and take on whatever life throws at you. 

Atelier Cologne Vétiver Fatal

For a fragrance that says don’t forget me in a subtle yet memorable manner, give this unisex cologne a go.
