Today, the minimalist fragrance attracts more and more fragrance lovers. Unlike complex and capitous compositions, these light scents bet on simplicity and subtlety. Their secret? A refined selection of natural ingredients and fresh, aerial, which adapt perfectly to all seasons.
The characteristics of minimalist fragrances
Minimalist perfumes are often made up of delicate floral notes, sparkling citrus, or very light musk touches. Their outfit is subtle, but effective: they evolve gently on the skin and leave a fresh and natural imprint.
They avoid too sweet, heavy or too capitous agreements, which makes them perfect for daily use, even in the office or in summer. Their elegance lies in their ability to discreetly accompany your moments without ever crushing your personality.
How to choose your minimalist scent?
Choosing a minimalist fragrance is as well understanding what you expect from a daily fragrance. Do you prefer a rather fresh and tangy scent to energize your days, or a light floral composition that enhances your natural side? Simplicity does not exclude personality: each minimalist fragrance has its own signature.
It is also important to test the perfume on your skin, because the notes evolve differently depending on the pH and body heat. Take the time to observe the evolution of the fragrance in the hours following the application to make sure that it remains pleasant and light, without becoming too intense or monotonous.
Our favorites to adopt without delay
To adopt the minimalist trend, here are five light and original perfumes, to discover urgently:
“English Pear & Freesia” From Jo Malone London: A fresh and fruity fragrance, where the juicy pear meets the floral sweetness of Freesia, for a delicate and elegant signature.
“Orange blossom infusion” From Prada Beauty: a luminous fragrance mixing the freshness of bitter orange with white floral notes and a slightly amber background, perfect for a lightly light port.
Diptyque “philosykos” : A tribute to the Mediterranean fig tree with its green and wooded notes, very natural and refined.
“Light Blue” by Dolce & Gabbana : Fresh and sparkling, with accents of lemon and green apple, ideal for the hot season but light enough to be worn all year round.
“Inflorescence” by Byredo : An aerial floral bouquet, a subtle alliance of Jasmine, Peony and Magnolia, which gives a natural and sophisticated rendering at the same time.
