What Are The Best Summer Fragrances? Perfume Obsessed Melissa Shares Her Favourites

Fragrance creator Melissa has shared her favourite summer scents with Justmylook. Since starting her fragrance content journey in December, Melissa quickly fell in love with sharing her passion for perfume through honest reviews, recommendations and personal favourites.

Melissa began collecting fragrances three years ago and has since curated a vast collection of affordable, designer and niche perfumes. Her fragrance taste leans towards vanilla, tropical and powdery scents, with a particular love for fragrances that feel comforting, memorable and full of personality.

One of Melissa’s favourite things about the fragrance community is connecting with people who share the same excitement for scent, as well as introducing her audience to lesser-known brands they may not have discovered yet.

For this summer fragrance edit, Melissa has shared the perfumes she’s loving right now, from fresh everyday scents to sweet, feminine fragrances perfect for warmer days.

 

What Makes A Great Summer Fragrance?

The best summer fragrances feel effortless, wearable and suited to warmer days. Think fresh florals, juicy fruits, soft musks, creamy vanilla notes and scents that feel light enough for daytime while still being memorable.

Whether you love a clean everyday perfume, a sweet fruity fragrance, a soft vanilla scent or something a little more statement-making, Melissa’s picks are full of summer perfume inspiration.

 

What Are Melissa’s Favourite Summer Fragrances?

Valentino Donna Born In Roma

“I love how this fragrance feels both classy and modern at the same time. The blackcurrant and jasmine combination is gorgeous. It’s sweet, feminine, and really easy to wear whilst still feeling luxurious.”

 

Lancôme La Vie Est Belle Vanille Nude

“This is such a bright, addictive vanilla fragrance and it has a certain muskiness to it that I absolutely love, but still feels soft and sophisticated rather than overly sugary.”

 

Giorgio Armani My Way

“I really love how fresh and clean My Way feels whilst still being warm and feminine. The white florals and vanilla work so beautifully together and it’s one of those fragrances that’s effortless for everyday wear.”

 

Carolina Herrera La Bomba

“La Bomba is such a fun, confident fragrance. I love the sweet fruity notes mixed with florals. It feels playful, feminine, and perfect when you want something that stands out a little.”

 

Rayhaan Kiss

“Rayhaan Kiss is such an adorable summer fragrance and honestly just makes me feel happy when I wear it. I love the fruity sweetness mixed with the soft creamy notes. It’s playful, light enough for warmer weather and very affordable!”

Summer Fragrance FAQs

What Are The Best Summer Perfumes?

The best summer perfumes often feature fresh florals, juicy fruits, citrus, soft musks or light vanilla notes that feel comfortable in warmer weather. From the fresh florals of Giorgio Armani My Way to the creamy vanilla of Lancôme La Vie Est Belle Vanille Nude and the playful fruitiness of Rayhaan Kiss, Melissa’s edit offers something for every summer mood.

 

What Scents Are Good For Summer?

Scents that feel light, fresh and easy to wear tend to work well in summer. While many fragrances fall into these categories, lighter concentrations like eau de toilette and some airy eau de parfum formulas are often good choices for daytime, while warmer floral, vanilla or musky scents can work well for evenings. The best option is one that feels comfortable in the heat and suits your usual fragrance style.
