Winter Fragrances

Winter fragrances are characterized by warm, rich, and comforting notes that suit the cold, cozy season. They often feature spices like cinnamon and clove, resins and balsams such as frankincense and benzoin, and deep woods like cedarwood or sandalwood. Gourmand accents—vanilla, chocolate, caramel, and coffee—add indulgent warmth, while earthy and smoky undertones like vetiver, patchouli, and incense provide depth and mystery. Heavier base notes like amber, musk, and oud ensure longevity and projection in cold weather, making the scent enveloping and noticeable. In contrast, light, fresh, or citrusy fragrances are less suitable, as they lack the warmth and richness needed to complement winter’s chill.
