For some it’s the red lipstick, others don’t leave the house without the perfect shoe to go with the look. When it comes to essential accessories, I stick to style icon Coco Chanel: She once said: “Elegance is impossible without perfume. It’s the invisible, unforgettable, ultimate accessory. Of course I often reach for my favorite fragrances in everyday life, but especially when I’m wearing a new piece of clothing for the first time, I really enjoy matching the perfume to it. Or I can bring a breath of fresh air into your winter wardrobe with a new fragrance. It is particularly useful this season, as many classics that you already have hanging in your closet – from black leather coats to mini skirts – are now back in fashion.
Whether it’s a favorite piece or a new acquisition, we’ll give you the most beautiful perfume news on the current fashion trends in autumn/winter 2022.
Pink scent bang for Barbiecore: “Paradox” by Prada
A trend that will stay with us from the summer? barbiecore! The pink hype photos were triggered by the set of the live-action Barbie film with Margot Robbie, which is due to be released in cinemas next year. Since then, more and more stars like Lizzo and Megan Fox have been using the bright color for their styling. Valentino’s creative director Pierpaolo Piccioli even dedicated the entire autumn/winter collection to her. Away from the girlish image, pink in 2022 stands for power and self-determination. A pink perfume that makes a real statement goes well with this, of course paradox we prada. It combines light and complex nuances such as Bergamot, pear, jasmine, neroli, musk and amber in a feminine versatile composition.
Cozy aromas for knitwear: “Luminous” by La Perla
Woolen dresses, elegant cashmere suits and fluffy oversized sweaters – autumn is stylish and cosy! To improve the cuddly effect, I not only wrap myself in knitwear from head to toe on cold days, I also like to wear powdery-oriental perfumes with a warm, spicy bouquet. My latest favourite: Bright we La Perle place Sambac jasmine, musk notes, mandarin and cedar wood.
Leather scent for Matrixvibes: “Paperwork Solution No. 4” by Off-White
Welcome to the Matrix! Whether at Alexander McQueen, Versace or Cèline: almost every show at the Fall Fashion Weeks featured skin-tight leather dresses or skirts, long, black biker jackets or complete leather looks from head to toe. There is simply no getting around leather this fall. It’s a good thing that leather fragrances are also very popular at the moment, such as Tuscan leather we TomFord or leather we Aqua di Parma. I’m flirting with the unisex fragrance novelty Paperwork Solution #4 from fashion label Off white place Eucalyptus, violet, tobacco and black leather in the base. It must go perfectly with my Matrix memorial cloak. Dress warmly, Neo!
Floral fragrances for Brit chic: “Moonlit Camomile” by Jo Malone
Queen Elizabeth the second. has shaped a century, inspiring people worldwide with a sense of duty and steadfastness. The Queen was also a fashion role model for many – with her always calm, always elegant style. Maybe that’s why the typical Brit look is so present again? Floral perfumes like the classics harmonize with tweed and trench, loafers and cardigans blue bell we Penhaglionone of the Lady Diana’s favorite perfumesor the new fragrance moonlight chamomile we Jo Malone place Moonflower and Chamomile.
Sensual fragrance nuances for the transparency trend: “J’adore Parfum d’eau” by Dior
With the see-through looks made of mesh, net and chiffon, as presented by Chanel and Fendi for this winter season, I’m probably not going to warm up as a small frostbite. Although I have to admit that the sheer long black nude dress from Dior’s latest collection that Jennifer Lawrence wore to the red carpet the other day looked hot! gut that diors for everyone who is still hesitating, has the right fragrance for the transparency trend in the range. The new I love water perfume, the first perfume from the fragrance house without alcohol, composed only of flowers and water. It lies very delicately on the skin and unfolds a sensually intensive effect Velvety jasmine and magnolia blossoms with a fresh, luminous nuance of neroli. Very sexy and completely natural!
Reinterpreted classic for the Y2K revival: “Alien Goddess Intense” by Thierry Mugler
Just as baggy pants and crop tops are in fashion, some fragrances from the noughties are also indispensable. Next to the celebrity fragrances by Britney Spears, Jennifer Lopez and Christina Aguilera, there also seemed to be a constant hint of Thierry Mugler’s Alien in the air. At the beginning of the year, the classic fragrance even celebrated a comeback among perfume fans on Tik Tok with the #perfumetok. The Y2K craze on the catwalks also seems unbroken, as you could see from the mini skirts at Miu Miu or the chokers at Blumarine. So quickly put the butterfly clip in your hair and the latest alien variant Alien goddess intense place Coconut, jasmine and vanilla sprayed on. hit me baby one more time
Sequin bottle for disco fever: “Fame” by Paco Rabanne
It feels like we still have a lot of catching up to do when it comes to glamor and glitter. It’s no wonder that metal appliqués, shiny fabrics and rhinestones competed with each other on the catwalks of the autumn shows. One of the absolute highlights? Gigi Hadid in a floor-length gown with golden XXL sequins on the Altuzarra runway. Extravagant party outfits like this one call for an equally extraordinary perfume that really lasts all night. I have a great tip for going out: Famous we Paco Rabanne. In the cool robot bottle with sunglasses and silver sequins is a beguiling, long-lasting mix of frankincense, mango and sandalwood. That smells like #fame!
