An elegant rose-patchouli fragrance lightly spiced with peppercorn. Despite having mossy notes, it’s mysterious without being heavy, slightly woody but still feminine.

Like a light cashmere cardi on cool autumn days, this sweet, creamy-smelling blend of coconut water, rose and musk is snug and warming.

This is the next best thing to having a secret forest retreat. The green bitterness of neroli leads in to the soft, aquatic scent of waterlily and jasmine, while white musk leaves a clean-smelling trail.

The delicate lavender fragrance has clean, herbal-spicy tones at the finish that make it modern, not fusty.

With romantic florals – May rose, jasmine from Grasse and sambac jasmine – and a warm, powdery quality, it makes you feel languid and dreamy. Good for slowish days.

Citrus, amber and cedarwood produce an earthy-sweet and slightly masculine fragrance. Truly transports you to an autumnal Swedish forest on a rainy day.

It’s rose, but not as you’d expect. Downplaying the flower’s usual cloying sweetness, this unisex perfume is delicately smoky and woody, thanks to shiso, guaiacwood and a base of patchouli and myrrh.

A simple shower can be marvellously head-clearing, and that’s the effect of this fresh, crisp scent. Starting off zesty, it evolves into a finish of powdery iris and soft, musky patchouli.
