Spring fragrance – what should it be like?
As soon as it starts to get warmer, we dream of making changes around us. It's the perfect time to switch to lighter clothing, a new hair colour and a more refreshing perfume. The cold months were full of enveloping, warming fragrance notes, but despite our love for them, it's time for a breath of fresh air in the world of perfumes.

Spring is associated with carefree, blissful relaxation and the first rays of sunshine, which is worth emphasising with the right perfume. It should have a delicate scent, preferably rich in fresh fruit, refreshing vegetables and seasonal flowers. Spring perfumes for women do not have to be the opposite of winter ones. If you like woody notes, enveloping vanilla or the distinctive scent of moss, there is no need to give them up. You will easily find them in many popular fragrances, such as Chloe Nomade, Hugo Boss Ma Vie or Lancome Idole, which you can also wear on warmer days.
