Maison Margiela REPLICA When the Rain Stops

This perfume is meant to evoke a stream of sunlight after a rainstorm passes. It’s light, dewy and so fresh-smelling that it’s nearly impossible to spray on too much. It features an aquatic accord and earthy patchouli illuminated by notes of rose petal essence and bright pink pepper.


Lancôme Oui La Vie Est Belle

The newest addition to Lancôme’s fragrance family, Oui La Vie Est Belle smells like a decadent bouquet. Top notes are bright and cheerful bergamot with a pop of pink pepper and juicy raspberry accord, which give way to a sensual blend of rose, jasmine and iris. This scent marries citrus, floral and gourmand notes beautifully.


Valentino Voce Viva Eau de Parfum 

It’s hard not to smile when you smell this exuberant floral and citrus scent. Notes of Italian bergamot and ginger add a zesty kick to middle notes of orange blossom and gardenia. Moss adds a cool and unexpected freshness at the base.


Viktor & Rolf Bonbon Eau de Parfum

If gourmand scents bring you joy, you’ll love Bonbon. A mix of confectionary caramel brightened by mandarin oil and orange, this perfume is sugary sweet without being cloying.


Ellis Brooklyn Sun Fruit Eau de Parfum

Transport your senses to a tropical paradise with this lush fruity-floral. Fresh fig, bergamot, jasmine, coconut and vanilla remind us of sunny beach days. Plus, the playful neon bottle is a mood-booster in itself.
