For those fortunate enough to live in a hot climate that stays at a reasonable temperature all year, perhaps you don’t need to worry about the change of seasons as much as we do here in the UK.

That being said, when it comes to perfumes, it’s good to have different scents for different seasons so that we can choose the right one for the weather. Let’s take a look at the best spring perfumes for 2023.

If you regularly visit my website, you will already know why we have different fragrances for different times of the year.

Imagine your favourite bottle of Alien by Thierry Mugler. This is a prevalent scent that many women around the world wear. You will know it is heavy if you are familiar with such a fragrance.

Despite spraying just a small amount onto the skin, it can significantly impact those around you because of its strength.

It’s a powerhouse in a bottle that won’t be suited to everyone.

Imagine wearing that same perfume during the hottest weather we are occasionally fortunate to get in the UK.

We may assume that perfumes and colognes with a woody and earthy scent are the heaviest. However, many sweet and floral fragrances can be just as overpowering if too much is sprayed.

For instance, think about La Vie Est Belle by Lancôme. It is a delightful fragrance that is gorgeous to wear during the Spring and summer but can be a little heavy on the skin.

With its fruity pear, blackberry and orange notes, this fragrance can smell sweet and, therefore, maybe a little overpowering.

For a lighter, more delicate scent, you can buy the eau de toilette version of La Vie Est Belle.

Why we should choose our fragrance to match the seasons

You may have your favourite signature perfume that gets spritzed daily, but have you considered whether that scent works well in all weather?

Designers create perfumes with the seasons in mind and have a balance of suitable aromas to fit the weather, our personalities and the current fashion.

When the weather is scorching, a heavy perfume will react with the heat and be far too strong on the skin. Wearing a lighter scent or even a body spray allows the smell to sit more delicately and not be overpowered by the heat.

Floral and fruity perfumes are much more suitable for the hot weather as they sit better on the skin and don’t accelerate in strength when the sun is hot.

The same theory applies to winter fragrances. When the weather is cold, we need a more potent scent to compensate for our skin’s drop in temperature. Woody, musk, and spicy perfumes work best.

Many men and women have signature fragrances they will wear whatever the season, and that’s perfectly okay. For those who like to try different scents, depending on the season, let’s look at what scents are popular this Spring.

Best Spring perfumes for 2023

Marc Jacobs – Daisy Love Paradise

I do love the creativity within Marc Jacob’s bottle designs. Even though we shouldn’t be influenced by the perfume bottle alone, Jacobs captures feminine elegance with each bottle they release.

‘With its soft-edged pink bottle, twin flowers in tone two colours as its cap, and a gold-plated centre piece on each daisy’, this floral and fruity Eau de Toilette is a reasonably new perfume to the market, having been released in 2022.’With its soft-edged pink bottle, twin flowers in tone two colours as its cap, and a gold-plated centre piece on each ‘Daisy’, this floral and fruity Eau de Toilette is a reasonably new perfume to the market, released in 2022.

‘The simplicity of fragrance notes within this perfume shows how less is more. It has a definite feminine scent that has a sweet touch without being too overpowering.

For those who love patchouli, this perfume has a definite linger of the base note and is very noticeable. It’s worth a try to see how it sits on the skin.

MARC JACOBS DAISY LOVE PARADISE 50ML EAU DE TOILETTE SPRAY BRAND NEW & SEALED

Top note: Iris

Middle note: patchouli

Base note: whipped cream

Baccarat Rouge 540 

If you’re looking for a touch of sophistication and class in a bottle of perfume, then Maison Francis Kurkdijian has mastered this 2015 scent with a gorgeous selection of fragrance notes.

Although it is not the most affordable perfume on our shelves, this scent is long-lasting and has a substantial selection of fragrance notes that will last the whole day.

Baccarat Rouge 540 is a popular scent often ‘copied’ by other manufacturers and is a global sensation. Pop superstar Rhianna had this bottle as her go-to scent before launching her scents, so it’s of little surprise that this perfume has many women obsessed with it.

Top notes: saffron, Jasmine

Mugler Angel Elixir EDP

Keeping in with the classic design of Thierry Mugler’s Angel perfume bottle, shaped like a star, the new fragrance of Angel Elixir, released this year (2023) has an identical design, but with a richer shade of blue tone on its bottle.

Every time I see this perfume, it reminds me of when my stepfather bought me Angel.

A bottle design that, unlike most other perfumes, doesn’t stand up on its own, so it would not sit proudly on the bedside table and be far too sweet for my liking, with heavy base notes of vanilla.

I never wore it.

Mugler Angel Elixir is worth comparing with Muglar’s 1992 perfume Angel.

A previous fragrance contained lovely notes, which may be too much for some to wear. As you can see from Angel Elixir, the base notes are still beautiful, so I would recommend trying a sample first.

Top notes: pink pepper

Middle notes: orange blossom, Jasmine, ylang, ylang, Sandalwood

Base notes: bourbon, vanilla infusion, Amber, Xreme™️

Issey Miyake L’Eau D’Issey

This perfume is perfect for Spring with its fresh, floral and aquatic fragrance notes.

Released in 1992, musk and Sandalwood have a gorgeous aroma as the perfume settles on the skin.

Top notes: Lotus, melon, rosewater, Rose, Freesia, calone, Cyclamen

Middle notes: lily-of-the-valley, lily, carnation, water peony

Bass notes: tuberose, exotic woods, musk, cedar, Sandalwood, amber, osmanthus

There is a beautiful touch of freshness and floral flowers with this scent.

It is suitable to wear in the office based on an aquatic and floral theme. It is distinctive and recognizable, and a little spritz is enough with this bottle if you’re not overly keen on too many fruit and floral notes.

It has a reasonably moderate sillage and a long-lasting scent, perfect for Spring evenings spent in the garden or having lunch with friends.

Many have said that the price is good value, too, and has a clean and fresh vibrancy as the musk note pops through for a very feminine aroma.

For a perfume that is over 30 years old, the late Issey Miyake, who only passed away last year (2022) at the age of 84, has created a timeless classic, and the design and shape of the bottle are most certainly one that can be carried in your handbag for a spritz during the day.

Spring Flower- Creed

Launched this year, Spring Flower by Creed has a delicate fruit and floral fragrance, which is perfect for women.

When we use musk as one of our base notes, we always sense warmer weather on the horizon, the chance to wear lighter clothing and sandals, and the sun on our skin.

As the opening note, Grapefruit gives a fruit zest and a delightful mixture of peach, white flowers and Jasmine.

It has a moderate sillage and a long-lasting fragrance for this re-released perfume bottle.

A simplistic baby pink bottle design and silver cap make this perfume a classic for women, even though the price tag may be too high for some.

Creed Spring Flower Pour Femme – 75ml Eau de Parfum Spray

Top notes: Grapefruit, green notes, lemon, Bergamont

Middle notes: Jasmine, apricot, peach, white flowers

Base notes: musk, ambergris, cedar

Aerin Mediterranean Honeysuckle EDP

Although perhaps not a very common perfume to many, this scent’s name conjures up images of holidays and warmer weather.

It is a bright and fresh perfume with fizzy citrus and grapefruit notes, suitable for Spring and summer.

Aerin Mediterranean Honeysuckle makes us want to escape to a warmer climate and feel the sand between our toes in the floral and fruit family.
