As usual, the drop in temperatures makes us want to wrap ourselves in a warmer fragrance. This season, there are no major surprises in terms of blends or ingredients. The fall 2024 fragrance trend aims to be chic and classic, with elegant notes of vanilla, patchouli, and oud being omnipresent. Flowers are also prominent, particularly the iris found in Courrèges, magnolia at Nina Ricci, and orange blossom blended with lavender at Yves Saint Laurent Beauté and Maison Francis Kurkdjian. Fenty Beauty, Rihanna’s brand, innovates with its solid perfume—a super versatile blend designed to be taken anywhere.

Women’s Fragrances

The most floral :

Eau de Parfum Libre Flower and Flames, YSL Beauté
The new version of the iconic Libre from YSL Beauté pays tribute to the lily, Mr. Saint Laurent’s favorite flower. This fragrance specifically captures the scent of the desert lily, crafted by master perfumers Anne Flipo and Carlos Benaïm. A powerful scent mingles with the sensual orange blossom of Morocco and the aromatic lavender of France, signature ingredients of the fragrance. To enhance the sunny aspect of this fall 2024 scent, a tanned blend  of palm flower from has been added, resulting in a comforting, almost incandescent scent housed in a sand-colored bottle.

The freshest :

Eau de Parfum Hyper Iris, Courrèges
After Hyper Musc, Wood, and Leather, Hyper Iris joins the Courrèges Hyper collection, where noble materials and modern compositions take center stage. As its name suggests, the heart of the fragrance revolves around the vibrancy of the white flower. Its bright facet pairs with a powdery violet leaf accord in the top notes. This soft floral bouquet then wraps around the vibrant and tonic accents of cedarwood in the base. A fresh and sparkling fall 2024 fragrance that brightens gloomy days. Special mention for its hyper-chic mirrored bottle.

The most luminous :

Eau de Parfum Vénus, Nina Ricci
Nina Ricci’s latest olfactory creation is one of the most anticipated of the season. This floral chypre surprises with its complex and contrasting structure. It opens with the zesty freshness of mandarin. In the heart, a floral bouquet featuring magnolia—a rarely used flower in perfumery—shines bright and sensual, enveloped by the sweetness of vanilla and the subtle elegance of white patchouli in the base. The result is a voluptuous scent that instantly boosts self-confidence. We love its jewel-like shell-shaped bottle with brushed gold finish.

Unisex Fragrances

The most magnetic :

Eau de Parfum Patchouli Paris, L’Art & la Matière, Guerlain
Guerlain’s latest creation from L’Art & la Matière pays homage to the vibrancy of Parisian nights. Full of contrasts , this fall 2024 fragrance opens with the fresh and vivid thrill of aldehydes—synthetic molecules with a greasy and warm scent, also found in the zest of citrus fruits. The heat escalates with the arrival of patchouli, igniting in contact with powdery and woody iris. The depth of patchouli lingers in a gourmand scentl of vanilla, ambergris, and musks—a vibrant and bold warm-cold experience.

The most concentrated 

Spirit of Perfume Oud Ispahan, Dior
This season, the Christian Dior Private Collection introduces highly concentrated perfume extracts. With a pronounced modernity, Francis Kurkdjian, the Director of Perfume Creation, reinterprets original fragrances to reveal intense and radical facets. For fall, we rediscover the oriental nuances of Oud Ispahan. Here, spicy top notes of clove and cumin blend with a honeyed rose in the heart. The rose intensifies when it encounters the dense and precious oud wood in the base, completely devoid of animal facets. A fragrance with a powerful identity.

Price: Approximately 4,300 DH for an 80 ml bottle
Available at dior.com

The most poetic :

Eau de Parfum APOM, Maison Francis Kurkdjian
A Part Of Me (APOM) is an intimate Eau de Parfum that is both carnal and sensual. The bright and addictive opening of orange blossom gives way to aromatic lavender. This soft floral heart is then enveloped in a vaporous and warm scent where vanilla, mingled with the sunny accents of ylang-ylang, lingers in the comfort of white musks. A signature with a cocooning effect that feels immediately familiar.

Price: 4,850 DH for a 200 ml bottle

The most intense :

Absolu de Parfum Mojave Ghost, Byredo
The luxury Swedish brand Byredo also chose to rework one of its iconic fragrances by distilling its main notes into an absolu de parfum. The focus is on Mojave Ghost, a woody composition inspired by the Mojave Desert. It features the ingredients that made its scent famous: ambrette notes and the freshness of Jamaican sapodilla (a small yellow fruit) in the top notes, violet, magnolia, and sandalwood in the heart, followed by amber, cedarwood, and musks in the base. Extracted at a very high concentration, they offer a lasting and richer scent.

An ideal fall 2024 fragrance for facing the drop in temperatures. The bottle is also reimagined, notably with a cap featuring an original texture inspired by traditional cabinetmaking.
