Fragrance shopping? Kinda hectic—especially when you’re hunting for your signature summer scent that lasts from the 9AM work calls to 9PM dinner catchups. We bet you’ve found yourself in the fragrance aisle half-confused and fully overwhelmed in the past, but we’ve got you this time.
Sweet, creamy and empowered. This scent became the it-girl perfume of the year, thanks to its addictive notes of vanilla, lavender and cacao. If soft luxury had a scent, this would be it. Plus, the bottle alone looks like it belongs on your vanity. Trust us—this one's going fast.
Kriti from the editorial team shares, “This is my fourth bottle of Burberry Goddess and, honestly, I’m still not over it. The lavender-vanilla scent somehow sticks around all day—even on those unbearably hot summer afternoons. The best part? My mom actually introduced me to it years ago, so it’s nostalgic—apart from sweet and floral. Every time I spritz it at my desk, at least two colleagues turn around asking ‘what’s that’. It’s just one of those scents that’s too good to gatekeep.”
“As a stylist, my days go from shoots to meetings and post-work catchups with my office besties—no outfit changes, no time to overthink. That’s why I’m obsessed with CK One,” Yvonne from the studio team shares. “It’s spicy and woody, but there’s also a soft, clean vibe that makes it feel fresh no matter the hour. It’s one of those scents that just works morning to night. You’ll always find it in my bag.”

Seasons come and seasons go, but the allure of DAVIDOFF’s signature scent remains unabated. Now in its reborn era, the classic oceanic scent is grounded in galbanum, cedarwood and upcycled vetiver to offer long-lasting sillage—ideal for days under the sweltering summer sun.
“I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve restocked this perfume,” Yasin from the site operations team says. “It’s hands down one of my favourite scents from Davidoff—super fresh, super aquatic. I wear it to work almost every day because it lasts all day. I’ve even caught a hint of it on my shirt after a wash.”
“This scent was everywhere on my Instagram so, obviously, I had to see what the hype was about,” Subi from the social media team shares. Here’s his take: “It’s zesty, a little earthy and has just the right touch of floral. I’m big on balance when it comes to fragrance and this one really nails it. It feels fresh and grounded—like something you’d wear to a chill brunch.”
Varalika from the design team says, “I originally got this for my partner, but I’ve secretly been using it too—yes, even though it’s technically for men. He already asked me to send him the link, so clearly he’s hooked. And honestly, I get it. It’s fruity, earthy and a little floral all at once. The notes of red apple, lavender and patchouli come out in the best way. It’s calming the second he sprays it and it lasts. Plus, the bottle is so pretty. The second he finishes it, I’m claiming it for my own shelf.”
This bestselling scent is bold, sensual and effortlessly chic. French lavender pairs with zesty orange blossom to create a modern fruity-floral fragrance with depth. A sweet base of vanilla and musk ensures it lingers beautifully. Perfect for night-outs, special occasions or any time you need a pick-me-up moment.
Our data analyst Mansi says, “A friend put me onto this fragrance and I haven’t looked back since. It’s a classic YSL scent—sweet, floral, with just the right touch of earthiness. You really get the black currant, lavender and cedar with every spritz. It’s super lightweight too. I love it.”
“I’ve been into the soft girl aesthetic lately and this scent totally fits the vibe,” says Pragati from the studio team. “I usually lean towards lighter florals, but this one’s a little more intense—just one spritz and you’re good to go. You get the notes of sweet jasmine, patchouli and vanilla bean. I save it for special occasions, but I’m restocking it…mostly for my sister (she’s been sneakily using mine).”
Gourmand scents are having a moment and this delicious fruity-floral blend fits the trend perfectly. Juicy pear tangerine and bourbon open into a floral heart of jasmine and neroli resting on a deep base of musk and amber. Long-lasting yet light enough for everyday wear it’s the perfect go-to for any occasion. As a bonus, its compact bottle makes it easy to carry for quick refreshes on the go.
“I try literally every perfume in the fragrance aisle, but the only ones I end up buying are woody or zesty scents,” our copy editor Megha shares. “So when I found myself restocking the sweet and floral Prada Paradoxe, it meant something. Firstly, I love the packaging. Secondly—and more importantly—the notes of neroli, jasmine, bourbon vanilla and amber make it so refreshing for both everyday and occasion wear.”
