While floral perfumes are often synonymous with the sunnier mouths, this season's perfume trends are actually packed with polarizing scents from zingy citruses to animalistic 'skin scents'.

The must-have spring perfumes for 2023
When it comes to selecting your next signature scent, the choice is very personal—hence why even choosing the perfect date-night perfume takes some serious thought. That being said, it definitely helps the process along when you know which perfume notes are proving to be universally loved right now.
Typically, spring is when you might swap your oud perfumes for something less heady and warm, though if you're not the biggest fan of florals—fear not, there are some surprisingly sweet and earthy notes growing in popularity right now. In fact, according to the experts, a certain nutty number is having a moment in the sun, figuratively speaking ( but also literally, since it's springtime and all)...
1. Pistachio perfumes
Yes, the scent everyone is tipping as the most-coveted scent for spring is nonother than pistachio, with one of TikTok's favorite fragrances, Kalayi (by Huda) among the many brands introducing a tantalizingly sweet pistachio scent to its lineup.
The Perfume Shop has also tipped that sweet gourmand scents like pistachio will be growing in popularity over the coming months, with consumers opting for 'almost edible fragrance notes.' So if you're already a lover of vanilla perfumes, you might want to five this delectable number a whirl. Pistachio itself is a green scent, that's well...nutty and perfect for springtime.
If you're looking for a body spray—perfect for those who like to mist their perfumes—the Sol De Janeiro 62 Brazillian Crush mist features notes of pistachio and is a TikTok favorite...
2. Floral perfumes
Of course, florals are a firm favorite for spring and summertime, with their dominance continuing in 2023 also.
As Emma South, Jo Malone's Fragrance and Lifestyle Expert notes: "The seasons do influence our tastes and how we wear scent. Springtime naturally calls for pretty, lightweight florals."
Sharing her recommendation for the perfect spring/summer-inspired scent, South says: "For me right now, I am in awe of the Jo Malone London Poppy & Barley Cologne combined with the Jasmine Sambac & Marigold Cologne Intense as it creates an utterly luxurious combination, reminiscent of the sensuality of summer night air. I also love the combination of Orange Blossom Body Crème with the Tuberose Angelica Cologne Intense, as it reminds me of shimmering gardens and balmy summer nights.
Rose and lavender notes are also perfect for spring—as they double as dreamy daytime scents and as well as the ultimate date perfumes.
3. Green perfumes
Green scents are also perfect for spring, as Commodity's Vicken Arslanian notes: "If you always preferred to be around trees and nature, choose a fragrance that’s more green and earthy."
Green notes are often crisp, like freshly cut grass, or the scent of the trees after a rainstorm—ideal for anyone who hates sweet smells.
4. 'Skin' scents
Skin scents like Niall Horan's favorite cologne are also the perfect fragrances for spring—with TikTokers adding scents like Glossier You to their springtime wishlists.
If you're looking for the perfect skin smell, Natalia Ortiz, Chief Commercial Officer at The Fragrance Shop recommends notes of lavender, jasmine, musk and sandalwood, explaining that they are, "scents which are most "skin-like", meaning they are barely there—also known as invisible scents—which tend to attract others and create the most compliments." Yes please!
5. Citrus perfumes
Citrus is also a safe bet when it comes to finding a signature spring scent and right now as Rebecca Herd, fragrance expert at The Perfume Shop reveals, they're having a big impact right now. Herd says: "Citrus perfumes are proving a much-loved addition to our spring and summer wardrobes with notes like orange, grapefruit, verbena and lemongrass taking centre stage.
"Giving sparkling freshness to fragrances, that’s hard to beat, the popularity of citrus notes seems like a natural evolution from the ‘clean scents’ that dominated the fragrance charts the year prior."
If you're a fan of any of the best Jo Malone perfumes and you're looking for a citrusy vibe, Emma South recommends adding, "a twist of something bright and refreshing like Jo Malone London Grapefruit or a spritz of the new limited edition Nashi Blossom cologne to lift your scent." She also adds that their iconic uni-sex scent, Lime Basil & Mandarin is a 'modern summer classic'—making it the perfect investment fragrance to start wearing now, right on through until the end of summer.
Spring vibes all around!
