Is it time to change perfume? Fruity and floral fragrances for the body and for the home, just in time for spring

With the arrival of spring, there's a change in the air, inviting us to renew not only our wardrobe but also our fragrance selection. This season offers us an opportunity to leave behind stronger, more enveloping scents and embrace lighter, fresher, and floral ones that awaken our senses after the winter lethargy, reflecting the lush spirit of awakening nature. The desire to contribute is also fueled by PerfumeTok, a branch of TikTok, making fragrance accessible to Gen Z, entertaining and engaging at the same time. For centuries, spring has been considered a period of rebirth, and the reason is clear to almost everyone: just step outside, smell the air, and look at the sky.

The Power of Scent: Aromatherapy

A fragrance has the power to enchant us with its trail, transport us to our most nostalgic memories, soothe or excite our senses. That's why there's a whole branch of alternative medicine called aromatherapy, using essential oils to promote well-being throughout the body, both physically and emotionally. Selena Gomez and Rare Beauty know this well, hence they've created a relaxing roll-on with essential oils, featuring an intoxicating fragrance of peppermint and lavender. This applies to spring fragrances for both body and home, tinted with green and stealing the scent of flowers and the rejuvenating nature, making us want to step out and blossom.

Choosing a Spring Perfume

Classic spring notes include bergamot, lemon, mandarin, and romantic floral notes like iris, jasmine, and rose. Although spring perfumes tend to be lighter, our environment, diet, and even the weather can influence how the skin wears fragrance—how long it lasts and how potent it can be. Here are some perfume suggestions to try for the season, divided into floral, fruity, and even for home.
