23 Vogue Editors Share Their Signature Scent and Favorite Fragrances
The point of finding a signature scent goes far beyond the compliments one might earn. It’s largely internal—about relishing in an olfactory “that’s so me” moment after the first spritz. It’s the dopamine hit of taking a personality quiz, with a result that everyone can experience—because your scent is your vibe in a bottle (with a vessel to match). Vogue Editors’ Favorite Fragrances: Vogue editors are certainly an opinionated bunch when curating our ever-evolving fragrance wardrobe—each scent carefully selected to reflect an aura, a mood, a moment in time. There are best-selling classics, perfume snob-approved gems, and new arrivals that have not yet become mainstream. The delectable scent-obsessed, the gourmand…

Emma Corrin Knows They Play All Your Favorites
While the couch is comfortable—something that would typically hypnotize me into a nap, especially right off the plane—Corrin’s energy is bright and engaging while we discuss their work with Miu Miu. “In the latter half of my 20s, I was doing so much growing as a person,” the British-born actor says. “The brand has really listened to me, and sees me as an individual. I instinctively feel like that’s quite unique and quite special.” Master perfumer Dominique Ropion created Miutine (a play on the word mutine, or rebellion) as a subversion of the incredibly popular gourmand fragrance category. “I started from a classic and I twisted it with a surprising…

Strawberry Season Comes to the Beauty World Early
Last year, black cherry was the fruit of the season—nails and lips were drenched in the moody color, and pulse points spritzed with the juicy fruit’s aroma. This year, the crown has been passed to the strawberry. Something is definitely in the air: At luxury LA grocer Erewhon, you can buy a single strawberry grown in the Tochigi Prefecture of Japan for $19. (Some say it’s actually worth the splurge.) By contrast, fruit from the cult brand Oishii—which translates to “tasty” in Japanese—is a steal: a box of Omakase Berries comes in at $20 for 11. And Flamingo Estate has brought back its bestselling Harry’s Berries collaboration, a fist-sized jar…

The Rise and Rise of the Solid Perfume
Move over, sculptural bottles and fragrance oils—solid perfumes are commanding center stage on the shelves, moving from niche status to the forefront of the category over the past year. Once hard to find, these fragrances deliver more intimacy and longevity than the typical mists, allowing for a subtle scent that lasts longer than their liquid peers. And because they’ve become more popular, with Gen Z-minded Glossier and classic houses like Diptyque both offering these wax-based formulas, you can now enjoy more variety than ever. Vogue’s Favorite Solid Perfumes Whether you’re seeking a fragrance for date night or hoping to net compliments (or both), these solid perfumes offer just enough variety…

Gigi Hadid Is In Her Golden Era
Gigi Hadid’s favorite color is yellow. “Sunflower yellow,” she specifies as we cozy into a giant couch at the Ritz Nomad. “It’s like the color of life to me.” It makes sense, actually—not to get all woo-woo—but she’s sort of the personification of the color: sunny, bright, warm, the right amount of loud. Hadid adds that in the world of colors, there’s only one thing more amplified, more extra, more intense than her beloved yellow. “Gold,” she says. “The color reminds me of royalty, of special things, of special moments.” Tonight, we’re celebrating one of those special moments: Hadid is the face of Rabanne’s Million Gold for Her fragrance and…

Baccarat Rouge 540 Perfume Review: The Fragrance That Always Receives Compliments
It’s a challenge to find a fragrance that everyone seems to love, but Maison Francis Kurkdjian, I think you might have done it with your Baccarat Rouge 540 perfume. The intoxicating scent is far from your average perfume. In fact, it smells so good that Rihanna (yes, the same Rihanna who practically has been immortalized as a meme for smelling like heaven) even complimented me while I was wearing it. During the premiere of a recent Savage X Fenty show, Rih walked past me and uttered three little magical words: “You smell good.” In This Story AccordionItemContainerButton Rihanna complimenting me on a fragrance is surely a moment I’ll never forget;…
