With summer in full swing, now's the perfect time to shake up your fragrance collection.

Tangy Rhubarb, the breakout star of the line-up, is an unexpected scent that pairs the leafy stalks’ crisp tartness with notes of zesty orange and spicy cedarwood.

If you’re looking for a fresh take on floral fragrances, consider this your top pick. Juicy mandarin, pomelo and lychee soften the blooming peony notes that lie at the heart of this sophisticated scent.
