L'Officiel's Beauty Awards 2021: Editors' Pick - Fragrances
When it comes to beauty, it's gone beyond just looking good, but smelling good too. We don't have to tell you that fragrances are inherently personal. Everyone has a different preference when it comes to what notes they wish to wear on a regular. Are you a fruity or woodsy person? When it comes down to it, only you know what you like – but it doesn't hurt to have some help every once in a while.
Best Boyfriend Perfume: Maison Margiela At the Barber’s
Reminiscent of old barbershops, this smoky, spicy perfume opens with bitter orange and pepper before making room for lavender, hints of tonka bean and soft, white musk. Clean and classic, this is perfume to be enjoyed regardless of gender.
Best All People Pleaser Perfume: Guerlain Aqua Allegoria Rosa Rossa Eau De Toilette
Your day could start like a bed of roses with Guerlain’s Aqua Allegoria Rosa Rossa, a soft, subtle rose scent freshened with lemon and bergamot.
Best Day To Night Perfume: SERGE LUTENS LA FILLE DE BERLIN EDP
If it’s been a while since you’ve gone out – and we mean really gone out – Serge Luten’s provocative scent may be in order. La fille de Berlin (French for ‘That girl from Berlin’) transports you to the uninhibited clubs of Germany’s capital city. A deep red rose with darker, smouldering elements, a spritz starts with ripe blackcurrants and rose before revealing undertones of amber and musk – designed to make you feel sexy and alive.
Best Classic Perfume: Parfums De Marly Delina la Rosee
The brand is known for its aromatic takes on French history through a contemporary lens, and the Delina la Rosée is no exception. A younger and more vibrant compatriot to the classic Delina perfume, this scent marries Turkish rose with fruity lychee and pear. Fresh and sophisticated, it’s a guaranteed future classic.
Best Bespoke Perfume: Maison21G Mini Perfumes Discovery Set
When it comes to signature scents, Maison 21G has you covered. This set contains 34 mini scents – from vetiver to jasmine – to mix and match from, so you can discover a scent that is uniquely your own.
Best Diffuser: SHOLAYERED Fragrance Diffuser in Orange Blossom
The fresh, citrusy notes of orange blossom transports us to a lush, tropical paradise without needing to leave our homes.
