For Them: The Harmonist Oud Nebula Parfum- $450
If you know The Harmonist, you know fragrances are about balance and creating 2 complementary fragrances that offset the other. Founded by Lola Tillaeva, the brand’s purpose is rooted in ancient philosophy and ageless spirituality. Oud Nebula is the first half of the Nebula collection. It’s a divine olfactory cocktail with the top notes of Bulgarian Rose and Laurel Saffron, mid notes of leather, sandalwood, and tonka bean; and base notes of amber, cedar, and oud all concocted by French perfumer Guillaume Flavigny to create a scent that imbibes a spirit of energy.
For Her: Gucci Flora Gorgeous Orchid Eau de Parfum- starting at $168
Part of the Gucci Flora Collection, the Orchid eau de parfum is created by perfumer Marie Salamagne. She infuses vanilla with marine notes, bringing out the sensuality of Vanilla Orchid. It was created to inspire women to “live life in their own way,” the same way Grammy-winning and multi-platinum selling recording artist Miley Cyrus who is the face of the collection does. Coming in a sleek yellow bottle, it’s fresh, it inspires, and it captivates.
For Them: Kilian Paris Love, Don’t Be Shy- $295
It’s soft yet gentle, and inspired by unforgettable love. Its key notes of Neroli, orange blossom, and marshmallow pulls the wearer in, as well as those that catch the scent. Created by Calice Becker, the brand’s founder Kilian Hennessy didn’t want a gourmand scent that is on the market, so he had to stay away from the renowned gourmand notes of ethyl maltol when combined with patchouli. It draws you in, it’s not overbearing, and it’s perfect for anytime of the year.
For Her: Burberry Her Eau de Parfum Intense- Starting at $143
Burberry’s newest fragrance, which has a British twist for women who want to live life to the fullest.

The top notes of wild strawberry, the heart notes of orange blossom accord, and base notes of ambroxan is quite plainly grown up fruitiness. Coming in a delightful light pink bottle, its unique touch is that the cap is not centered, yet it is on the left side of the bottle.

The base note of Patchouli brings an earthiness with smoky hints. The green detailing on the bottle, according to the brand, “inspires new ways to connect with one’s inner truth.” It’s for the man that’s bold, elegant, and knows how to embrace his true self.
