Beauty | Winter Fragrance Faves

I typically wear a fragrance every day, but in the colder months, I'm never without one or more of my favorite scents. I'm attracted to spicy, woody, warm scents, and I love musk. Not you're grandmother's musk, but that warm amber, sensual scent that is so perfect for cold days. My favorite scents are along the same lines: with notes of vanilla, musk, amber, and a blend of spices. Below are the ones that I reach for most often.


The Body Shop White Musk Perfume Oil $24Top notes: velvety musk, floral lily, sensual ylang ylang, with hints of fresh galbanum and basil Middle notes:velvety musk, oriental jasmine, floral lily, rose Base notes:velvety musk, oriental jasmine, floral lily, iris, rose, sweet vanilla, fresh amber, patchouli, oakmoss, vetiver, fruity peach. I put just a dab of this on my pulse points, and it literally lasts all day. I also like to layer this under Burberry Brit as well.

Kiehl's Original Musk $42Special musk 'recipe' begins with an initial creamy, fresh citrus burst of bergamot nectar and orange blossom, followed by a soft floral bouquet of rose, lily, ylang-ylang and neroli. Finally, Original Musk Eau de Toilette dries down to a warm, sensual oriental finish of tonka nut, white patchouli and, of course, musk—the soul of this distinctively modern scent. It smells as delicious as it sounds!  I love wearing this on a night out, and I even spray my sheets with it.

Burberry Brit $72 - With notes of Italian Lime, Icy Pear, Green Almond, White Peony, Sugared Almonds, Amber, Mahogany, Vanilla, and Tonka Bean. I love wearing this scent on its own, or with White Musk. On its own, it lasts for hours and is perfect for date night!

CLEAN Ultimate $69Opens with juicy notes of Italian bergamot and Provencal lemon. Lavender, jasmine, white rose and muguet create a floral heart. Neroli and musk add some warmth to this distinctively clean scent. The CLEAN range of fragrances are all amazing, and well worth the price. I spray this on after bathing, and the scent lingers beautifully on my skin. 

Calvin Klein Euphoria $64An addictive oriental scent that hints at exotic fruits like pomegranate and succulent persimmon and seductive florals such as black orchid and the sensual champaca flower. Liquid amber, mahogany wood and cream accord complete the rich, creamy and signature scent. This is definitely the sexiest fragrance I own. The one that garners the most "What are you wearing?!" responses from people. There's something so distinctive about it, and I love that the tiniest amount goes a long way. It can be a bit much for daytime, but I do reach for it when I'm feeling extra confident.

What are your favorite winter fragrances?

  1. I never considered switching out my fragrance from season to season. I've been wearing Baby Phat Goddess for a couple of years now. After reading your post, I think I want to try Clean Ultimate and Calvin Klien Euphoria.
