When colder weather is upon us, we often find ourselves overhauling any and every ritual associated with the warmer months. On the fashion side, that means developing a new rotation of shoes and replacing tanks with sweaters. Where beauty is concerned, it can mean swapping your lightweight, gel-based products for a heavier skincare routine. Sometimes, we find ourselves so immersed in other endeavors that it can be easy to overlook the need to swap our summery fragrances for the best perfumes of the season. That being said, the task becomes pretty easy once you’re in on the secret behind compliments all winter long: amber perfumes.
Okay, so what’s an amber perfume, and why do you need it? Do you know how, every year, certain things leave you with a warm, cosy feeling (maybe it’s a song or a movie)? Amber perfume is that feeling in a bottle, which explains why people will immediately flock to you when you’re wearing it.
In truth, amber is often not an actual perfume ingredient but instead is a full-bodied, savoruy scent created with the combination of some key ingredients. Think comforting touches of vanilla and patchouli. In a nutshell, it’s your “cuddle up by a fire, happy place” fragrance. You won’t be short of amber perfumes to fall in love with, if you’re looking for a place to start, we’ve rounded up the 10 you should consider first below.
