Best Earthy Scent: Maison Margiela Replica From the Garden
Why it’s worth it: While some fragrances sprinkle vegetal notes in here and there for their refreshing qualities, Maison Margiela’s Replica From the Garden goes all in with a whole CSA box of earthy base notes like tomato leaf, green mandarin, blackcurrant accord, and cristal moss. Meant to evoke sun-drenched gardens, it’s the scent equivalent of sinking your teeth into a ripe, juicy tomato.
Key notes: tomato leaf accord, patchouli, and green mandarin essence | Available sizes: 0.34 ounces, 1 ounce, and 3.4 ounces
Best Fruity Scent: Tsu Lange Yor Pool
Why it’s worth it: Don’t let the name fool you into thinking Pool is another sun-drenched coconut scent. Instead, Troye Sivan’s interpretation of poolside fun exists in a world where your post-dip snack is a gazpacho or hearty salad. Cucumber and tomato mingle with juicy lychee and raspberry in this scent that has all the right ingredients to serve as a light palate cleanser for any heavy fragrances you’ve had on rotation lately.
Key notes: cucumber, lychee, raspberry, tomato leaf, ginger, musk | Available sizes: 1.69 ounces
Best Citrusy Scent: L’Artisan Parfumeur Cédrat Céruse
Why it’s worth it: In Cédrat Céreuse, garnishes like lemon and pepper, along with an underrated crudité (celery), get the spotlight they deserve. Smelling like celery might not be high up on your list of fragrance asks, but this refreshing scent says otherwise. The licorice-y hints of fennel and burst of sugary lemon make the whole thing pop, like the first sips of an herbaceous cocktail.
Key notes: lemon essence, fennel essence, celery, pepper, coriander seeds, and musk | Available sizes: 3.38 ounces
Best Woodsy Scent: Hermès Un Jardin Sur Le Nil
Why it’s worth it: “A garden on the Nile,” the translation for one of Hermès’ most beguiling scents, is one of those fragrances that not only transports you geographically but also backwards in time. Think ancient history circa the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, if you can picture it. Its medley of juicy mango, incense, and vegetables is just an approximation of what a lush garden off the waters of the Nile might be like: a little mystical courtesy of the powdery dry-down, very lush and green, and unlike anything you’ve ever experienced IRL.
