Winter is an endearing season that awakens in us nostalgia for home and its unique aromas. It is getting colder and colder, the days are getting shorter and our perfumes are an ideal way to accompany the cozy atmosphere that this time of year brings us. Nights by the fire, cakes and hot chocolate, Christmas with the family… A perfume is capable of transmitting memories, sensations and the essence of a season in a tiny bottle.
In the following article, from Mixer & Pack, we guide you through these scents that captivate us and present some of our favorite winter perfumes to accompany you this season.
What smells do we associate with winter?
When we think of winter, images of snowy forests, burning fireplaces, freshly baked cookies, Christmas lights, and comfy blankets automatically come to mind. Winter has a very different olfactory palette from that of the rest of the seasons, which transports us to cozy and festive moments. The scents that we associate with winter usually transmit the warmth and comfort we are looking for in contrast to the cold outside, which is why in general more intense, sweet and spicy perfumes are usually used. Some of the notes that we like to include the most in winter fragrances are:
Sweet notes: vanilla, coconut, caramel, chestnuts and chocolate
The sweet aroma of these elements is very common in any winter fragrance, as they envelop us in a warm atmosphere that comforts us and returns us to the feeling of home. These are notes with a touch evocative of childhood, but with a lot of personality: chocolate, caramel, coconut, vanilla…
Woody and spicy notes: cinnamon, ginger and cedar
Some spices such as cinnamon, ginger or anise are the main protagonists of Christmas. When combined with woody aromas such as cedar or sandalwood, they manage to awaken the image of lit fireplaces in which to warm our socks while enjoying our favorite Christmas sweet. Of course, we cannot forget the main smell of winter, the pine, which transports us to snowy forests and trees decorated with lights, while bringing a touch of luminosity and freshness to the perfumes of this season.
Fruity notes: orange, cherry, fig
Although fruity and citrus fragrances are often associated with summer, the scent of orange is a must-have in winter, especially when combined with cinnamon. Cherries and figs also evoke the traditional compotes and jams that accompany family breakfasts on holidays.
How to choose the perfect winter perfumes?
Finding a good winter perfume that suits the season while matching your personality is not always an easy task. That’s why, from Mixer & Pack, we leave you some recommendations so that you can find your perfect winter perfume this season.
First of all, it’s important to consider what your usual personal preferences are. You must adjust them to the change of season, but maintaining the essence of what you usually like. Are you more of a warm or fresh scent? Are you looking for your fragrance to be intense or light and subtle?
In addition, you should take into account the type of events and on what occasions you plan to wear your perfume, just as we recommend you try different scents before opting for one.
