Try: Gucci Bloom Eau de Parfum, $130
If you got a new Thailand stamp in your passport this summer, Gucci Bloom — with exotic florals like jasmine and rangoon creeper — is your scent. Did you soak up the vibrancy, zip around in tuk-tuks, and indulge in the culinary delights of Bangkok, day and night? Go get Gucci Bloom.
Try: Clinique My Happy Cocoa & Cashmere, $23
Did you get to view the magical northern lights this summer? Bask in the blue lagoons and scale glaciers? Then you have got to check out My Happy Cocoa and Cashmere from Clinique. Decadent yet subtle with musky hints of cocoa, it'll make you want to wrap up in your cardigan and spritz some on.
Try: Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue Sun, $80
If you swam in the azure waters off the coast of Italy this summer, this is the sun-drenched scent for you. Lemon, coconut, cedarwood, and jasmine make for a heady mix reminiscent of that afternoon in the Blue Grotto...
Try: Maison Margiela Replica Whispers in the Library, $126
Prefer the hush of museums and churches to busy beaches? Spritz away with Replica's newest scent. Warm and spicy, and housed in an apothecary jar that hearkens back to the royal castles and brick streets Denmark is known for, this fragrance is unique and comforting — time to ride your bicycle to the Royal Library and get lost in the pages.
Try: Tom Ford Metallique, $195
Like the dazzling fountains and world's tallest building in the middle of the desert, Metallique is an opulent study in contrasts: Crisp, yet warm and woody. Let the intoxicating notes of heliotrope and ambrette seed wash over you like the heat (and the luxury) of Dubai.
