My Summer Smells Like Citrus and Soap
Summer, to me, always smells like citrus.
Not one perfect perfume—just fragments that stick to different parts of my day.
🍋 Goutal’s Chevrefeuille (out of stock again): like honeysuckle water, the kind you’d bathe in if you were a flower.
🫧 Acqua di Parma Colonia: straight-up lemon bar soap. Clean, nostalgic, like a hug from a hotel towel.
🧡 Hermès Eau d’Orange Verte: on my second bottle. Orange peel, lemon zest, dried tangerine. My personal catnip.
🍓 Hermès Eau de Rhubarbe Écarlate: sweet-tart berries with a green twist. Fades into a scent that reminds me—strangely—of green bottle Pantene.
🍹 Etat Libre d’Orange You or Someone Like You: mojito on the first spray, celery on the next. Weird, refreshing, unforgettable.
None of them match. But together, they’ve made my summer make sense.
What’s your go-to summer scent—even if it makes no sense on paper?
