Fragrance trends shift toward warm classics and rice scents for autumn

Fragrance trends for the autumn season are shifting toward warm, comforting scents. One notable resurgence features the 1988 classic ‘Le Bain’ by JOOP!, which is currently available at Douglas for approximately 23 Euro. The fragrance is characterized by notes of orange blossom, jasmine, sandalwood, and amber, offering a luxurious and intense profile.

In addition to classic revivals, a new trend is emerging around ‘rice scents.’ These fragrances utilize notes of rice steam, roasted basmati, or creamy rice milk to create a soft, clean, and cozy aesthetic. Inspired by Asian grooming rituals and Japanese minimalism, these scents aim to provide a gentle, skin-like aroma as the weather turns colder.
