Smells can make you feel a certain way, bring up memories or even remind you of a specific person. Your own personal scent then is important, playing a role in how you make yourself and others feel.
If you’re looking to change up your scent to suit winter weather, or you don’t wear much perfume and are keen to get an idea of what scents are out there, read on.
Ahead, the POPSUGAR Australia team has shared what fragrance they’re wearing this winter (or year-round) and why they love it. From a fragrance one team member gets compliments on every single time she wears it, to another that lasts the whole day, these are the scents the POPSUGAR Australia team considers the best winter fragrances.

Maison Francis Kurkdjian Baccarat Rouge 540 Eau de Parfum ($369) is just one of those smells I can’t get enough of. It’s so refreshing and you don’t need a lot of it to be smelling great all day. Oh, and I always get compliments on it.
Bernice Corral, Vertical Content Producer
Maison Margiela Replica’s By The Fireplace EDT 100ml ($215) because it smells like a fireplace. It makes me feel warm and cosy all day.
Alyce Thomas, Group Sales Manager
Without fail, I get a compliment anytime I wear this fragrance Chloé Nomade Eau de Parfum 50ml ($170). It’s my special go-to and makes me feel delicious when I wear it.
Angeline Barion, Editorial Graduate
The only fragrance I use is the Mon Paris EDP 90ml ($252) from Yves Saint Laurent, because it’s my favourite year-round scent. It’s medium-bodied and lasts well through the day. I love wearing it in winter especially because it reminds me of warmer days with its fruity and floral notes.
Shan Novak, Agency Partnerships Manager
I got Diptyque Eau Rose ($168) once as a Christmas gift and it literally smells like a fresh bouquet of Roses! I feel so feminine and pretty when I wear it.
Julia Carlino, Group Sales Manager
Tom Ford Velvet Orchid Eau de Parfum 30ml ($165) is a signature winter scent. It’s beautiful, feminine, elegant, classy and perfect for any occasion.
Sangeeta Kocharekar, Lifestyle Editor
I’ve worn Chloe Signature Eau de Parfum 30ml ($118) since I was a teenager so it makes me feel nostalgic whenever I spritz it on today. I still love it as much now as I did back then. And yes, it’s probably more of a spring scent, as it’s light and floral, but I’m always trying to pretend like it’s not winter with what I’m wearing (linen, sandals, etc) so wearing this then makes sense.
