Summer Scents To Try This Season

This summer, don’t stick to perfumes that disappear after 30 minutes in the heat. Upgrade your scent game by layering fragrances, carrying balm perfumes for quick touch-ups, and creating that “halo effect” throughout the day with a good hair mist. 

Korean fragrance brands like Tamburins and NONFICTION are already globally known, but Korea’s scent scene keeps growing with fresh proposals.

Your Main Summer Fragrance #1:
BORNTOSTANDOUT

This brand completely breaks the “clean and minimalistic” image of most Korean fragrances. BORTOSTANDOUT is bold and slightly addictive. Their scents are for people into black fruit, vanilla and spice. Perfect if you want something intense, sexy, and memorable.

Your Main Summer Fragrance #2:
CGS

CGS is much newer and more niche, created by Korean visual
artist and photographer Cho Gi-seok. The brand launched with the collection “COEXISTENCE,” inspired by flowers, butterflies, angels. The scents feel artistic, clean, sweet, and very wearable during summer.

Spray Hair Mists
