Steal an ELLE Editor’s Signature Scent

Courtesy

The ELLE office smells fantastic. That’s because we have a lot of strong opinions when it comes to scent—so in honor of National Fragrance day (March 21), I asked editors what fragrance they are currently gravitating toward, whether it be a signature scent or a new favorite. Read on for our picks.

Eau de Minthe Eau de Parfum

“Out of my extensive collection of perfumes, this is still the one I reach for every single day. With mint, geranium, and patchouli notes, it reminds me of the best men’s aftershave. It’s my life’s mission to collect a bunch of minis of this fragrance so I can store one in every purse and re-apply throughout the day.” — Tatjana Freund, ELLE.com beauty commerce writer

“I’m fickle about fragrance and don’t have one that I love above all others. But I’m often drawn to what I call ‘naughty florals,’ a mix of traditionally popular floral notes like jasmine, rose, and orange blossom—plus something spicy or warm. My favorite at the moment: Memo Paris Marfa Eau de Parfum, a blend of tuberose and orange blossom with a dash of white musk.” — Genevieve Monsma, interim beauty director

“I love all things Italian and Santa Maria Novella is always my go-to. It makes me think of summers at the beach mixed with a hippy vibe.” — Alexis Wolfe, fashion market and accessories director

“Creative Director Jonathan Anderson describes his line of 001 perfumes for Loewe to fragrances that ‘reinterpret the scent of a skin caress.’ This fragrance has been in my life since it debuted: with the most delicate combination of musk, lavender, and sandalwood, this perfume lingers all day and is alluring as it is gentle and complex.” — Kevin LeBlanc, fashion associate

Almond Coconut Soufflé Body Crème

“A friend of mine once wore this body cream and it smelled so freaking good that I felt compelled to ask what it was. She proceeded to tell me that every man she’s ever dated had the same question because ‘she smells like a cake in the best way possible.’ I rest my case.” — Claire Stern, ELLE.com deputy editor

“Sometimes finding a signature fragrance can feel like a game of chance, except for when it comes to Glossier You. This musky eau de parfum belongs to a category of fragrances known as skin scents meant to enhance your natural aroma. As a result, the fragrance has become a cult classic, perfectly mixing with each user’s skin to create a unique scent. Plus, it’s the only perfume I’ve tried that I can smell all day.” — Emily Burns, assistant beauty editor

“My family is from Syria, so I always gravitate toward amber-forward scents. Loubiluna combines sweet fig milk with cedar and papyrus into a scent that enters it room just a second before you do. I find that so sexy and empowering—I love it when people can smell a fragrance hovering above your skin.” — Margaux Anbouba, beauty editor
