The Lipstick League Question of the Week
What’s your favorite fragrance to wear during late summer/early fall?
G's answer: I love anything with a predominant fig note during this time of year. Figs are in season both in June, and then again from August through October, so they bridge the gap beautifully between summer and fall. Sweet like summer fruits, but also cozy and autumnal. My favorite luxury fig fragrance is L'Artisan Premier Figuier (which I got for a steal at a local discount store a few years back). For affordable fig fragrances, I love Pacifica Mediterranean Fig. Oh, and Bath & Body Works Brown Sugar & Fig is always fun, too.

ReplyDeleteFor spring and summer I like florals, and start easing a bit out of that as fall comes in. That's when I'll dig out the Chanel No. 5 again, or something like Opium. I also found a perfume oil last fall that I ended up really liking, with hints of honey, amber, tobacco and blossoms. To me it smells warm and comforting in some odd way. I'll order samples from Etsy, too, for variety, seeking perfumes with hints of rum, amber, honey, tobacco, musks, etc.
ReplyDeleteHeidi,on the off chance you see this, sounds like you'd love many of Wylde Ivy's winter scents (near bottom of page):

I lied. The scents I'm referring to are the Fall/Winter scents, right below the Halloween scents. Not near bottom of page! :)
