How these were picked
Picked by our scent profile: warm reads 65+ and sweet 55+ out of 100 (amber, vanilla, spice), and eau de parfum or stronger so it lasts the evening.
Order: Warmest and sweetest together first.
Our scent profile reads each fragrance's listed notes into fresh, floral, sweet, woody, warm, green and clean, each out of 100 against what's typical on our list (50 is typical).
At most two from any one house, and one of each scent. No paid placements.
