If the change of season calls for a change of scent, this year's new releases have certainly delivered. From hyper-realistic citruses to Californian vibes and the usual, magnetic Parisian opulence, we've selected three fragrances that are already making waves.
Get comfortable:
We're embarking on a journey through the notes of Montale, Heeley and Simone Andreoli.
🍋 1. Cedrat Lova – Montale Paris
The sunny (and magnetic) side of citrus.
Forget classic citrus scents that vanish after ten minutes. Pierre Montale strikes again with Cedrat Lova, a fragrance that manages to make cedar "eternal."
-
The Mood: It's an explosion of Mediterranean light that, however, hides a deep and slightly smoky soul. It's not your usual "beach scent," but a structured creation that evolves beautifully with warmth.
-
The Notes: The opening is a sparkling cocktail of Sicilian Cedar, Bergamot, and a pungent touch of Ginger. The heart warms with Mysore Sandalwood and Jasmine, but the magic happens in the base: Cuban Tobacco, Ambergris, and a hint of Cambodian Oud give it incredible longevity.
-
Why choose it: If you love citruses but are looking for character and a trail that leaves a mark even in the evening.
🍊 2. Pomelo Crush – Heeley
The pure essence of freshly peeled fruit.
James Heeley is the master of minimalist elegance, and with Pomelo Crush, he has created what is probably the most realistic pomelo on the market.
-
The Mood: Do you know that cloud of essential oils that bursts out when you peel a fresh pomelo? Well, that's exactly it. It's bitter, green, almost crisp. Extremely chic and natural.
-
The Notes: The absolute protagonist is White Grapefruit, accompanied by notes of Rhubarb and Tarragon that accentuate its vegetal facet. The base of Vetiver and clean Musks ensures timeless elegance.
-
Why choose it: It is the "regenerating" perfume par excellence. Perfect for those who hate sweet perfumes and seek an intellectual and sophisticated freshness.
🏄♂️ 3. Surf the Ginger Wave – Simone Andreoli
Freedom, salt, and a touch of madness.
Simone Andreoli's "Olfactory Diary" gains a new chapter inspired by California's surf culture. Surf the Ginger Wave is not just a perfume, it's a state of mind.
-
The Mood: Imagine being on a surfboard, salty water on your skin, the scorching sun, and the energy of a sunset party. It's a dynamic fragrance, "cool" but sexy, with an unexpected twist.
-
The Notes: An icy opening of Ginger and Lemon that meets Sea Salt. The real stroke of genius? A note of Vodka combined with Mint and Eucalyptus in the heart, creating a "frozen" effect. The base of Ambroxan and Solar Woods closes the composition with a magnetic longevity.
-
Why choose it: If you're looking for the ultimate summer scent. It's young, vibrant, and incredibly energizing.
