Boy Smells perfumes

It’s almost summertime — do you have your signature scent sorted yet? If you answered no, don’t worry. The best new fragrances of April 2022 have introduced an array of seasonally appropriate options, with everything from fresh florals to bright, fruity aromas. While there are plenty of fragrances that can easily carry you through an entire calendar year, it’s nice to mix things up as the season changes, particularly when summer rolls around.

There are so many exciting new launches to choose from, from indie retailers to heritage brands. You may know Boy Smells for its herbal-scented Kush line, which just added three new additions: Cashmere Kush, Cowody Kush, and Italian Kush, for whatever summer vibe you’re after. These fragrances started out in candle form, and due to popular demand, Boy Smells created perfume versions of the sought-after scents. Jo Malone’s latest release captures the elusive cherry blossom, and if you’re curious about sustainable fragrances, check out Ralph Lauren’s Polo Earth; the formula is 97% natural plus it comes in a refillable bottle.

Whether you want to emulate a tropical island or poolside glamour, ahead, discover the new fragrances that launched this month, just in time for summer.

Boy Smells perfume

If you can’t get away for a vacation, this scent just might be the next best thing. Italian-inspired notes like limoncello and pomelo are sure to help you escape, while patchouli and sandalwood keep things grounded.

If the brand’s description of this scent as “rustic and sneakily intoxicating” doesn’t intrigue you, surely the unexpected combination of notes certainly will. Hazelnut, white leather, and mandarin sit at the top before tobacco creeps in, giving way to saffron flower, cannabis lead, and suede. The scent rounds out with tonka bean, patchouli, and oud for a perfectly balanced and unique fragrance.

Cashmere Kush

This scent is just as cozy as it sounds. Warm notes like musk, amber, and cashmere woods are balanced by tulip and vetiver for a truly soft and lush experience.

Ralph Lauren perfume

The first sustainable fragrance, Ralph Lauren’s new Polo Earth is a unisex fragrance with 97% natural origin. It’s an intersection of floral and fruity, with notes of bergamot, mandarin, lavender, sage, and vetiver.

Jo Malone perfume

Sakura Cherry Blossom Cologne

Cherry blossom season is short, but you can channel the sweetness every time you spritz Jo Malone’s new scent. Notes of airy cherry blossom sit at the center while bergamot and rosewood help to balance.

Lancome perfume

La Vie Est Belle Oui

If you’re a lover of floral perfumes, you need to pick up Lancôme’s latest scent offering. With notes of sweet iris, rose, and jasmine, it’s as bright and fragrant as a bouquet.

Armani Beauty perfume

Acqua di Giò Eau de Parfum

This men’s fragrance is about as fresh as it gets with notes of marine, lavender, and patchouli. Plus, the elegant bottle is refillable to cut down on waste.

Jennifer Fisher perfume

Jennifer Fisher

With notes of vanilla, Australian sandalwood, tonka bean, pear, and coconut, it’s not surprising that so many were eager to try it out. Sign up here to be notified when it’s back in stock.

Vanille Antique

Vanille Antique

The latest fragrance to join Byredo’s Night Veils Collection, Vanille Antique is centered around notes of smoky vanilla bean, but it’s not overly sweet. Warm cashmere wood, amber, and musk help create a nuanced fragrance that’s perfect for nighttime.
