Fragrance Rotations 2025

Thank you so much dear @EvitaVilla! 🥰🙏 And so nice to read about your plans, I have also Café Rose (2023) in my current rotation, such a gorgeous fragrance 💕🌹

Hi, I hope spring is coming for everyone. Where I live it's already quite warm so I'm putting together a little tray for March and it's full of tea and floral samples. I've got:

Weeping Rose
Chloë Sevigny - Little Flower
Clouds Illusion
Blackbird
Neon Night
HäNa
Caprice de Sophie

Also @Lempi that is very beautiful. I hope your wedding went perfectly and I wish you two the best. 

Happy March everybody! ✨💖✨

Hi dear @SilverLily, your March tray sounds lovely! 💕 Here in Central Finland this winter has been exceptionally mild, normally spring doesn't come here before May, however this year I have seen signs of spring now already so who knows if spring will arrive super early this year. We still have snow but a lot smaller amount than for example same time last year, same with temperature, we have had plus degrees several days when normally this time of the year we still have minus degrees.

Our wedding day was absolutely wonderful too, thank you so much! 🥰🙏 I have actually added some pictures here.

So my March selection...in the picture of my selection it indeed looks like the fragrances are standing on a mountain of snow 🤣 But the warming sun is rising behind and melting it, so yes you can definitely see signs of spring in my choices too, among a few heavier gourmands there are also lots of lighter fresh-floral fragrances. So here we go:

Hi @MOONTRIPS, I wish your February was nice and fragrant and welcome back to the rotation thread! 😁🥰 Great selection for March! I would love to get Cosmic Sky btw, I haven't seen it in any shops around here but the bottle is gorgeous and the notes are so interesting too, and other fragrances I have tested from the same brand have been nice quality for the price. Anna Sui bottles are just amazing!

I just escaped from snowy Finland to the Scottish spring 😂🥳 I started to be quite fed up with my March selection too so I decided to swap majority of the fragrances on my tray already. Plus the fragrances that are fine in snowy Finland's minus degrees are not so suitable to Scotland right now as the temperature difference is quite significant. No snow and the first flowers of spring starting to bloom already which is amazing to me, looks like May in Finland here right now even it's still one week March left so almost 2 months difference in the start of spring lol 😄

As I'm going to travel back and forth between Scotland and Finland the following couple of months, I will switch my monthly rotation to a seasonal rotation now. So here's my selection for spring 2025 photographed in beautiful @Mitchcraft family garden:

Spring is trying painfully to show up where I live. One day it's warm and pleasant, then it's back to 10C, rain and cold winds. I changed my rotation anyway, just to stop feeling so pessimistic. It's bad enough that the whole world is going to hell, at least I can feel more optimistic with my personal scent.

Chance Eau Tendre Eau de Toilette
Bel Étage
Mimosa Austral
Iris de Syracuse
Pink Champagne
Le Pavillon d'Or
Melograno Eau de Cologne
Città di Kyoto

Dear @Raluko111, your current rotation sounds absolutely lovely! 😍 I totally agree that perfumes are such an amazing way to cheer oneself up, I suffer from MDD occasionally and perfumes are my best anti-depressant. Sending you lots of hugs my friend! 🤗

It's funny how it seems that what temperature is considered warm and spring-like varies a lot depending on the place we're living because in Finland 10 degrees would be spring warmth 😂 However I totally understand how it might feel really cold when it's windy at the same time. But I have definitely been enjoying the temperatures here in Aberdeen Scotland now, yesterday we had 17 degrees which was warmer than several summer days last year 🥰 Hopefully it will be better soon there where you live too!

Thanks, @Lempi. I know I sound like a whiner, but in my defense, Japanese homes don't have central heating. So it feels colder indoors than other countries. Scotland sounds lovely, I've been meaning to make my way there. One of these days! 

Btw, just curious, is it easy to travel around Scotland by train? I'm a pretty lousy driver. Thanks!

Yeah I really like it here, especially the sea, sandy beaches and mountains are amazing to a person like me who is used to Finnish flatness and rocky beaches 😁 However this might feel like a cold country for people from warmer countries, probably it's feeling warm only to me as I am used to much colder. Unfortunately I don't have any personal experience of the trains here but I think it's pretty easy to travel without a car here, the public transportation seems to be ok. ☺️

I normally wear whatever, whenever, but I experimented with a rotation in the second half of March and had fun. I've got 50ish samples and my goal this year is to get that number down by doing monthly rotations (and you know...not buying anymore 😅).

Spring is approaching here and the April temperatures generally range between 40-65°F (~4-18°C). My focus was mostly on a variety of florals, and gourmands that I will put away soon because I can't really stomach gourmands in warm weather. I also added a handful of other scent types for the days I'm sick of florals and gourmands. I tried to limit myself to 10 fragrances but found it impossible, so I settled on 15. I like to have options!

Here's my April rotation:

Wash Me In The Water

Skin [Reserve Blend] Eau de Parfum

Florist

Rrose

Sci Fi

Super Amber

Sweet

Sweet Almond Blossom Eau de Parfum

Wonderland Peony Eau de Parfum

No.04 - Bois de Balincourt Perfume Oil

Match Made in Heaven

Moon Magic Perfume Oil

Avant Garde Perfume Oil

Cup of Ambition Perfume Oil

Rabbit

Thank you so much for sharing @Sniffwhiff ! Your selection looks amazing and very interesting! 😍 And I'm the same, I'm not able to wear gourmands in hot weather so I too have the last super gourmand ones that I want to wear on my spring selection now before putting them away to wait for colder season again. But by this time of the year the winter has lasted such a long time that I'm actually starting to be really fed up with almost all cold weather fragrances 😂

@Lempi I think I would also get fed up with cold weather fragrances if I had to endure a long winter! I hope you get some nice weather soon 😊

@Sniffwhiff Yeah, long winters are the biggest downside of Finland for sure, but thank god my husband is Scottish so we live sometimes in Scotland too and currently has been amazing weather here in Aberdeen, sunshine and more than +15 degrees on many days, the spring is so much ahead here compared to Finland 😍🙏 Actually we had lower temperatures and lots of rain in Scotland last summer so funnily enough the last few days have felt almost better than last summer 😂

@Lempi I saw that you were back and forth between Finland and Scotland, but wasn't sure where you currently were. How lovely that you get to escape the cold! And to Scotland, no less. It's the #1 country I'd like to visit 😍 I hope you're enjoying your spring rotation!

Hi all. I'm being more mindful of my fragrance wardrobe as it's grown a bit larger than I'd like, so rotations will help me to curate. I'm currently on an indefinite no-buy, I hope participating in this thread will keep me excited to explore more of what I have and to curate my collection.

April is birthday month, and on the shelves I have:

"Casamorati - Lira (Eau de Parfum) | XerJoff" - works better for me in Spring than Winter.

Delina Exclusif and Delina Eau de Parfum - dressier options.

Lust In Paradise - warmer Spring days.

Lune Féline Eau de Parfum, Hypnotic Poison (2014) Eau de Parfum, Venom of Love Extrait de Parfum - sexy date night options.

The Omniscient Mister Thompson and Narciso Eau de Parfum Rouge - Iris has become a top favourite note and these will feature in all my rotations.

Mon Guerlain Eau de Parfum, Roses Vanille Eau de Parfum, Libre Le Parfum, Blue Heart Extrait de Parfum - work options.

Nebras - sweet of choice

How wonderful! This is indeed a gorgeous country, I love especially the amazing beaches and mountains 😍 Thank you so much, I'm definitely enjoying the fragrances that I have with me here 🥰

Hello and welcome @CallMeTee! 🙋 Hopefully doing rotations will be helpful for you. You have an absolutely gorgeous collection! Also happy birthday in advance! ✨💖✨

Hi, I just began a Spring time rotation with Lily of the Valley. I still have to reorganize my collection for the season, but the other attendees to this April meeting would probably be :

Jacinthe et Rose

L'Air du Temps Eau de Toilette

Diorissimo Eau de Parfum

En Passant

Narcisse (2023)

Lilas (2024)

I will also add some roses and some freshies for May and June.

You reminded me what I was missing from my rotation: my favorite lilac, En Passant.

Wow, sounds absolutely amazing for spring! 🥰

Oh yes, lilacs are gorgeous for spring! 😍 My favourites are Pur Désir de Lilas and A Drop d'Issey Eau de Parfum. 💜🤍

Yves Rocher makes some pretty awesome fragrances. For the Issey Miyake brand, I guess I've never quite forgiven them for discontinuing some of my signature perfumes, and I still hold a grudge. 😅

@Raluko111 I agree, Yves Rocher is amazing for the price! 😍👍 Funnily enough Pur Désir de Lilas used to be my signature when I was a teenager and that was discontinued and several of my other YR favourites as well, however fortunately I have still some backups left. But yeah, YR for sure knows the notorious art of discontinuation too LOL 😅
