This exotic blend of jasmine, sandalwood and cardamom is a little beachy and spicy; because it's an oil, it easily sinks into skin, melding with your own fragrance. Anyone who gets a whiff of you will think you're just one of those supernatural creatures who always smell good.
Viktor & Rolf Flowerbomb Twist Layering Oils, $69 each
Viktor & Rolf's new layering perfume oils -- which include Jasmine, Musk and Rose -- were designed to be paired with the house's Flowerbomb perfume. TBH, we love wearing these one-note oils by themselves or cocktailed together. (Jasmine and musk are a classic, low-key pair.)
This nostalgic perfume oil will give you beachy, surfer-girl vibes with orange blossom, lavender, Italian bergamot and musk. Wear it if you miss summer.
The typical pop-star perfume is an olfactory slap in the face: lots of white florals, lots of vanilla, the end. Not this one. Katy Perry's surprisingly grown-up eau de parfum features 11 types of musk, bergamot, white tea and white cedarwood. Although its sillage is stronger than others on the list, this scent is a lot subtler than you might think -- and smells expensive AF.
To treat this perfume oil as a mere fragrance primer -- like the product's marketing suggests -- would be missing its full potential. With notes of cotton plus white musk and amber accords, this is a comforting and beautifully seamless fragrance that is perfectly lovely worn by itself.
