Summer Scents

posted Tuesday, 21 July 2009
I usually find myself reaching for the same scents over and over again during Baltimore's hot, humid summers. We've been so far blessed with fairly pleasant weather - lots of rain, but not a lot of suffocating heat. Still, I have my summertime favorites:

Hermes Eau de Merveilles - wonderfully dry and almost salty, this light citrus and ambergris is perfect for hot sticky weather.

Estee Lauder Azurée Soleil or Bronze Goddess - yummy coconutty white floral, like suntan lotion, but better.

Parfums 06130 Yuzu Rouge> - crisp, bracing, and refreshing.

Hermes Un Jardin Sur Le Nil - crisp again, with lots of citrus over a pleasantly woodsy base.

Acqua di Parma Blu Mediterraneo Mirto di Panarea - like a blast of Mediterranean sea and sunshine.

Bond No. 9 Brooklyn - I love the dry herbaceousness, like a gin and tonic that doesn't make me sick. :)

What do you find yourself reaching for in hot weather?
