If you’re looking for a new signature scent that perfectly captures your unique essence, it might be helpful to take your zodiac sign into consideration. While matters of the stars are not necessarily etched in stone, they may be able to give you a hint about your personal beauty inclinations, especially when it comes to fragrances. Fire signs for instance, may lean towards warm, heady statement-making scents, whereas Earth signs might prefer something green and nature-based. Air signs, on the other hand, might feel drawn to lighter floral, crisp, zesty citruses, whereas water signs (yes, you guessed it right) can gravitate towards fresh, aquatic scents. Following these cues, we’ve curated a list of fragrance recommendations you’re bound to love, based on your zodiac sign.

The long-lasting scent stays for hours with a warm base of musk, sandalwood and amber.
