do you have perfume recs for winter? I'm searching for something elegant and enchanting that reminds of Swan Lake, Giselle or the Snow Queen. Kind of ice-princess vibes.
Love, thank you for your patience! What a wonderful question, I pondered the options at length and had a lot of fun! Since my associations for those three ideas varied so much, I ended up collecting a few for each. Since I also lost myself a little, I decided to expand on the scents and my thoughts on them in a substack post. I hope that's okay (and I do mean that, if you'd rather I didn't, let me know and I'll transfer them). I hope you find inspirating suggestions on the list!
Swan Lake (downy, tender, graceful)
Narciso Rodriguez, For Her EdT
