Southern Hemisphere Christmas just hit different. And by different, we mean warmer. And so, while our Northern Hemisphere friends are all rocking fireplace fragrances and warm spicy scents, on our summer bodies they all go down a little too heavy. So this year we’re mixing it up: bringing you the must-have scents for the holiday period that are just made for Aussie summer. Here’s what to buy — and wear — this festive season.
Demeter Fragrance Library Salt Air Cologne Spray, $34.95: Name a more iconic Australian scent, we’ll wait. In this lightweight cologne, Demeter have perfectly captured the sea breeze on a summer’s day — and they bottled it. A best seller for a reason.
Demeter Fragrance Library Sunshine Cologne Spray, $34.95: The kings of single-note scents, Demeter Fragrance Library have made sunshine wearable. Close your eyes and take a guess what it smells like… if you guessed clean and warm and like sun dried fresh washing on your skin, you’d be correct.
Demeter Fragrance Library Lychee Cologne Spray, $34.95: A fresh, fruity surprise that's not too sweet. Evokes memories of lazy days and tropical beaches
Demeter Fragrance Library Aloe Vera Cologne, $34.95: If you thought Aloe Vera didn’t have a scent, you’d be mistaken. Fresh, green and cool, it’s light on the skin and the exact kind of refreshing almost-not-there scent that’s perfect for summer.
Demeter Fragrance Library Champagne Brut Cologne, $34.95: Wear your favourite drink and don’t get a hangover! This scent just spells fun: sweet and somehow bubbly? We’re not sure how they made it smell like the real thing but they just did.
Demeter Fragrance Library Swimming Pool Cologne, $34.95: If Salt Air is the most iconic Aussie summer scent, Swimming Pool would have to be a close second. It is, for us, the scent of childhood, minus the chlorine, it smells like water lingering on your wet skin combined with the sun-warmed beach towel
Demeter Fragrance Library Mojito Cologne, $34.95: The unofficial drink of summer, but made for your skin. A cirtusy delight of lime, mint and sugar, it’s refreshing, fun and always ready to party (obviously).
The Perfume Oil Company Calypso Perfume Oil, $34.95: Inspired by Vilhelm Parfumerie’s Mango Skin, this fruity oil wears beautifully on the skin. With notes of Mango, Orange and Violet and anchored in Musk and red wine (!!) it smells unmistakably like summer without being too obvious.
Demeter Fragrance Library Peach Cologne, $34.95: The best season is always stone fruit season and this scent captures the juicy sweetness of peach while still being fresh and summery.
Demeter Fragrance Library Cucumber Cologne, $34.95:Juicy, green and fresh, but also light and sweet, it’s a watery, barely-there scent that smells just like snack time.
Demeter Fragrance Library Blueberry Cologne Spray, $34.95; An oh-so-familar scent, Blueberry captures the essence of the blueberry in its purest form.
Demeter Fragrance Library Pineapple Cologne Spray, $34.95; Pineapple delivers the full, fresh and juicy heart of the pineapple in a bottle.
