Though you may associate sweet floral scents with Spring and Summer, you can expect to see a lot of this note through the upcoming cold months. In some perfumes, such as Viktor & Rolf's Flowerbomb Jasmine Twist ($69), jasmine sits comfortably in the spotlight. It is unapologetically sweet and can be layered with other fragrances or worn on its own. Jasmine Twist is part of a floral trio of "Twists" from the brand; all three are concentrated perfume oils.
For a perfume where jasmine is folded into other notes, try Guerlain Mon Guerlain ($66). "This is a refined and powerful gourmand, with rich, silky Madagascar vanilla and precise, dry sandalwood against clean lavender and ribbon-soft jasmine," Nurislamova said. "It weaves a complex tapestry of deep tonal nuance and power from a minimal composition of only four notes, and the texture of this fragrance is every bit as important as its delicious gourmand layers. Mon Guerlain is a prime example of a storied, classical perfume house reminding us about why the high French style is so wickedly intimate at heart."
