The Best Perfumes for Fall 2021
The new designer perfumes you need to buy, wear, and Instagram this fall.
Getting a new perfume feels a fresh start, sort of like fall itself. And although the fragrance of the moment may be from Fenty Beauty, there are more than enough gorgeous fall scents to go around. This season, take your beauty routine to the next level with one of these new fragrances from Tom Ford, Marc Jacobs, Gucci, and more. Whether you like something spicy and bold or lightweight and floral, these are the scents you'll be smelling everywhere for the rest of the year.
The long-awaited Fenty Eau de Parfum is finally here—although the first drop already sold out. If you can manage to get a hold of this magnolia-forward fragrance, it’s worth celebrating just like the megastar herself (that is, eating caviar for breakfast in bed).
The name says it all: With notes of red berries, cardamom, cedarwood, and moss, it smells like a walk through a (fancy) park on a fall day.
Gucci’s Alessandro Michele tapped Miley Cyrus to front their new floral fragrance, which she says makes her think of her grandmother, “who always smelled of fresh cut flowers.”
Marc Jacobs Fragrances Perfect Intense Eau de Parfum
If you love the original Perfect fragrance that came out last year, wait until you smell this sophisticated new take. It maintains the daffodil and almond notes, but incorporates night-blooming jasmine and sandalwood for a touch more warmth.
Coach’s new take on their Dreams fragrance is inspired by a road trip—a really, really nice-smelling road trip. With top notes of bergamot and pear, a heart of jasmine, and base featuring vanilla and tonka bean, it's as gorgeously layered as a, well, sunset.
The cult candle brand now has an equally obsession-worthy fragrance line. Intended to be worn and loved by all genders it has notes of suede (of course), along with hazelnut and cardamom, but the coconut water and pineapple keep it light.
Armani Beauty Terra di Gioia Eau de Parfum
The latest from Giorgio Armani has a little bit of everything. Grounded in Indian jasmine, it’s rounded out with sweet almond and fruity notes of bergamot, citrus, and pear.
A more intense, winter-appropriate version of last year's warm floral perfume, beloved by Lady Gaga.
This Earthy, woody scent is for all genders. It's the perfect scent for your next big night out.
With orange blossom, tuberose, and vanilla—this bright fragrance is a modern twist on classic and beloved notes.
The inclusion of candied ginger—a classic fall spice—gives this new iteration of Twilly the perfect balance of sweet and sexy.
