I’m a proud Leo, and as any of my fellow lions will tell you, our favorite season is upon us in just two short months. No shade to spring at all—New York City is an absolute dreamscape when all the trees are blooming—but after a particularly gray and dreary start to April, I’m definitely fantasizing about warm and hazy summer afternoons at the park or beach. Until the period of linen sundresses and patio margaritas is upon us, I’m switching up my go-to perfumes for scents that capture all the mineral, juicy, fresh, and aquatic vibes of the season.
One of my favorite things about adjusting your fragrances based on the season is how differently they will wear on your skin in the fluctuating temperatures. When the sun is blazing down on your bare shoulders (protected by plenty of sunscreen, of course) and you’re glistening with a fine layer of sweat from an afternoon of outdoor activities, the juice of your perfume is going to react differently with your skin’s pH. It’s basically magic!
