Byredo Blanche Eau de Parfum

For this now-iconic Byredo scent, creator Ben Gorham attempted to evoke the purity of white using white rose, light woods, and aldehyde. The result is sharp, pure, wearable — and one of our all-time favorites.

Snif Salty Stare

If trying out a fragrance before buying sparks your interest, Snif is the brand for you. Shoppers have the option to order a fragrance kit with samples of perfumes alongside a full-sized bottle that can be returned if they don't like the sample. If you're wondering where to start, Salty Stare is a refreshing green scent with notes of bell pepper, bergamot, lily of the valley, ginger, and oakmoss.

Henry Rose Jake's House Eau de Parfum

Henry Rose's array of clean, sustainably made scents are all one of a kind in their own right, but I have a particular soft spot for Jake's House. Aquatic (but not beachy) vibes meet a splash of neroli and peony for a deeply nostalgic yet unexpected scent.

Skylar Sun Shower

Skylar's unique take on fresh fragrances juxtaposes bright top notes of bergamot, jasmine tea, and lemon leaves with woody base notes of cedar, cypress, and palo santo. The result: Not your average summer scent.

Chanel N°19 Eau De Toilette Spray

Think of this Chanel fragrance as body mist all grown-up. It's the olfactory embodiment of the color green, brimming with fresh, woody notes of galbanum and iris.

By Rosie Jane Angie Perfume

Described as a love letter to Los Angeles, this breezy floral perfume smells nothing like car exhaust or broken dreams. Rather, it's as fresh and clean as a fragrance can get. It has predominantly jasmine and fig notes with a touch of understated sweetness from honeysuckle. The formulation is also clean, insofar as it's paraben-, phthalate-, and cruelty-free, and the packaging is 100% recyclable.

Diptyque Philosykos Eau de Toilette

This unique scent mixes fig leaves and black pepper to create a day-appropriate take on a subtly spicy scent.

Chloé Love Story Eau de Toilette

This orange blossom scent spritzes on light and crisp in the morning, then fades to a subtle floral accord by evening. The fresh aroma lingers but never overpowers.

Maison Margiela Replica Lazy Sunday Morning

Imagine lounging in freshly laundered, 800-thread-count sheets as the sun glints through your floor-length linen curtains. From your balcony, you feel a soft breeze ruffle a lush garden of white flowers below. Sounds dramatically poetic, but it's exactly what this cocktail of lily of the valley, white musk, patchouli oil, and aldehyde smells like.

Le Labo Bergamote 22 Eau de Parfum

No matter how many hours you spend holed up in the corner of a cigarette-infused dive bar, this elixir of 22 notes — among them earthy petitgrain, bitter grapefruit, warm amber, and verdant vetiver — can make you smell spa-day fresh.

Ellis Brooklyn Myth Eau De Parfum

Forget what you know about heady, seductive musks. This take on the classic note weaves in components more associated with sweetness and light, like white orchid, jasmine petals, and pink lotus, over an earthy base of patchouli, white cedarwood, and liquid musks. This gives it an airiness that smells like your skin, but better.

Hermès Un Jardin sur le Nil Eau de Toilette

Rumor has it this scent was inspired by a walk near the Aswan Dam on the Nile, which is spotted with garden islands. (Sounds nice, right?) The blend of green mango and lotus smells pleasantly exotic and sparkly — not fruity or overly sweet — and a hint of sycamore wood brings it down to earth.

Clean Classic Warm Cotton

The top-note trifecta of bergamot, peony, and amber could leave you smelling like a Yankee Candle store. However, sheer musk and invigorating verbena anchor the blend for a crisp yet warm finish.

Philosophy Pure Grace Eau de Toilette

Lily of the valley, frosty musk, and leafy green team up for a simple, soap-and-water scent. That is, if the soap were handmade in the French countryside and the water were plunged from an icy, babbling brook.

Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue Eau de Toilette

This cult-classic scent has thousands of reviews online — and rightfully so. We like to think the combination of apple, bamboo, and cedarwood smells like fresh ocean waves.

Korres Eau de Toilette

Fresh florals are our favorite year-round fragrance, and this one is mighty powerful. Sweet freesia meets bergamot for the perfect medium between sexy and sweet.

Jo Loves Pomelo

Whenever you need a summer pick-me-up in the dead of winter, this fresh blend of rose and pink pomelo should be your first stop. Even if you've never been to Newport, this fragrance would have everyone else believe that you belong there.

Fresh Life Eau de Parfum

The kind of fresh-air fragrance New Yorkers will crave after a decade of living in the city. The subtle moss, bergamot, vanilla grass, and cypress leave you smelling a lot cleaner than it, too.

Aerin Waterlily Sun

If Monet had a fragrance of choice, it'd most likely be this — or, at least we'd hope so. Considering this perfume is inspired by the waterlilies in the gardens of Giverny, France, the mix of Sicilian bergamot, dewy greens, waterlily, and jasmine sambac perfectly capture the essence of the natural sunlight in a small, rural village.

Nova Green Musk

When we hear musk, we don't usually think lightweight. But this one pairs the heady note with hints of fig, grass, and amber. The result: fresh rain on a spring day.
