From Classics like Chanel and INITIO Perfumes.
We’ve sourced the best of the best in fine fragrances and have curated the perfect Shopping guide of classic, niche and oud fragrances that need a spot on your top shelf. A powerful fragrance can lead to new opportunities, studies have shown that a fragrance trail will leave a heavy impact on a new job interview, date – you get the vibes. I’ve developed a passion for fragrances early, thanks to countless magazine samples that lead to my first designer fragrance purchase (probably Marc Jacobs Daisy – iconic, right?) Now that I’m in my 30’s, my theory is to invest in what makes you smell good and feel good. See our top fragrances for November below.

Best worn at night -This fragrance is remarkable. Long-lasting, bold and creates a striking presence while leaving a mysterious scent trail behind.
