Fall is here, which means we all want a little cozy in our lives. It’s the season of warm tea, blankets on the sofa, and warm fragrances which wrap us up in a warm scent experience. Love the fall season!

Warm fragrances give us comfort and warmth as temperatures cool down, so, it’s no wonder we gravitate towards woody scents, gourmands, vanilla fragrances, and warm florals. Crisp scents have been left behind until next spring. Bring on heavier perfumes! It’s cozy time!

I own all of the fragrances shown above, so you can count on me to tell you they are warm, cozy, and fabulous. The two scents I find myself reaching for the most include the Chanel edp and Guilty Vanilla. Chanel’s edp is perfect for evening and weekends while Guilty Vanilla is ideal for the office, theater, and anytime you want an understated yet fabulous fragrance. Of course, the other four fragrances are beautiful too, I just reach for the Chanel and Guilty Vanilla the most often.

I hope you enjoy these cozy fragrances for the fall season!

YSL Libre Florals and Flames edp review

I am in love with YSL Libre Floral & Flames edp for the spring and summer seasons! Possibly beyond! Although categorized as a fresh floral, this acts as a spicy floral when on the skin. I am in love!

YSL Libre Floral & Flames edp combines fragrance notes of palm-tree flower accord, lily flower accord, vanilla, and orange blossom accord. This creates a warm, spicy floral experience perfect for warm weather; and also moderate temps. Love!

Since this is an eau de parfum formula, YSL Libre Floral & Flames lasts about ten hours on my skin. The spicy scent ends sooner, around six hours, and then you are left with a beautiful warm floral fragrance for the remaining, roughly four hours.

There are a few sizes of the YSL Libre Floral & Flames edp fragrance available, including a travel size you can take on airplanes. Love that! I purchased the one-ounce bottle, which is pictured above.

So, if you are looking for a new spicy floral, this is the one! It will also make a fabulous gift. Love!

Thanks for stopping by!

XOXO
