Perfumes can have such a powerful effect on our mood and even come to define our identity! That’s why I think having a reliable, everyday fragrance is something which every person should have. An everyday perfume expresses one’s style and mood in a way which is subtle enough not to be overwhelming and at the same time significant enough to be noticeable! So read on for my carefully curated list of everyday scents.
Narciso Rodriguez For Her Eau de Parfum
Narciso Rodriguez For Her is a musky modern classic that has a beautiful rose undertone. This is one of those fragrances which feels clean and feminine without being particularly floral. The rose notes develop on the skin, forming the musky-rose accord that makes up the crux of the scent. Narciso Rodriguez For Her exudes elegance and in my view can be worn to any occasion.
The Narciso Rodriguez For Her fragrances are a beautiful, feminine collection of perfumes; check out my article on the entire range here.
Jimmy Choo Eau de Parfum
Jimmy Choo Eau de Parfum is my favourite perfume! It’s a chypre fruity fragrance with top notes of fresh pear and green accords. A sweet toffee base adds warmth without brining any ‘sickly sweet’ feelings. The entire scent is supported by a patchouli undertone which helps add edge to the feminine pear and toffee combination. I wear my Jimmy Choo perfume almost every day and it always makes me smile.
YSL Black Opium
To me, Black Opium by YSL is a rich and addictive fragrance which has a wonderfully blended fragrance that seems to melt into my skin. On the first spritz, I don’t catch any specific note since they all intertwine nicely together. Pear and jasmine eventually grow more noticeable, with a slight earthy coffee note developing over time. Black Opium is very good for lasting and is bound to get you compliments; check out my article on the entire range here.
Jimmy Choo Blossom
Blossom by Jimmy Choo is a fruity floral fragrance that gives me those “Girl next door” vibes. I like wearing this as an everyday scent in the Spring and Summer because its light hearted and easy going. It smells a bit like sweet raspberry juice. The bottle is really beautiful and Jimmy Choo Blossom can often be found at a discounted price too!
Calvin Klein Euphoria
Euphoria is one of Calvin Klein’s most successful fragrances; I think this is due to its great longevity and uplifting yet comforting vibe. Calvin Klein Euphoria has a pomegranate top note which blends which orchid and woody notes which together create a uniquely feminine perfume. Euphoria can often be found at a really reduced price and I think its a really reliable every day perfume which can transition you from the office to date night.
Bvlgari Omnia Pink Sapphire
Omnia Pink Sapphire by Bvlgari is a fresh everyday fragrance which comes in a beautiful pink perfume bottle which is inspired by the shape of coral. Typically, Bvlgari fragrances tend to be quite heavy, however the Omnia range are fresh and created for summer. Omnia Pink Sapphire blends pomelo, pink grapefruit and tropical tiare flower, to create a very refreshing every day fragrance.
H&M Flowerscape
H&M Flowerscape is a super affordable floral fragrance with a delicate, everyday scent. It is dominated by a sweet pea note which smells really true to life. Flowerscape also has a citrus and bergamot top note which adds extra freshness; I like how natural it smells! It has average longevity and projection and is great value for money.
H&M Flowerscape is available in the US, UK, France, DE, AT, DK, HU, NL, NO, FI, PO, SE, and the rest of the world.
Coach Floral Blush
Coach Floral Blush Eau de Parfum is a really affordable and reliable fresh fragrance, and my favourite perfume from Coach. A beautiful peony note combines with a zingy peach and grapefruit combination to create a lighthearted everyday scent that I always get compliments on.
Kate Spade New York Eau De Parfum
Kate Spade New York is a floral fruity fragrance which has a fresh combination of wild strawberries, bergamot. I find the strawberry note is very realistic and really does remind me of the smell you get when you open a new punnet of strawberries. I adore the packaging, both the bottle and cap are quite heavy and feel well made; definitely a fragrance for fans of pink!
Hugo Boss Alive
Boss Alive Eau de Parfum is a warm, slightly woody fragrance which is characterised by a playful plum top note. A hint of vanilla supports the plum note which creates a cosy feeling that makes Alive great for as an everyday winter perfume. I think it’s suitable for daily use and family-friendly occasions as I find it has a really homely vibe.
