Sometimes we all get tired of our regular perfumes and just want to relax and put on a light, inoffensive fragrance. Something cozy and subtle that stays in the background and quietly lifts up your mood. The scent of fresh laundry can be a go-to option for these kind of days! It reminds of sleeping in, staying in bed and feeling clean crisp sheets on your bare skin.
Here’s a compilation of clean-smelling fragrances for lazy stay-in-bed days:
Blanche by Byredo
A very light, airy, powdery and soapy-clean perfume: fresh laundry washed with a luxurious floral detergent. It opens with a blast of aldehydes, then fades to a much softer rose and peony scent, and becomes more woody and musky in the dry down. The fragrance stays close to the skin and has a soft and delicate sillage.
Warm Cotton by Clean
The scent of a clean laundry: comforting and refreshing in a cozy way. It smells like a cotton t-shirt straight from the dryer. The brand and the perfume are also vegan and cruelty-free!
Lazy Sunday Morning by Maison Margiela
This perfume perfectly fits its name: cozy, comforting and clean, wearing it feels like staying in bed on a lazy Sunday morning. The smell reminds of sundried laundry and warm linen. It’s mostly musky and flowery with an aldehydic opening and prominent rose and patchouli notes.
Laundromat by Demeter
As it says, it smells exactly like a laundromat! Very clean, fresh and somewhat cold, with slightly sweet floral notes.
Pure Grace by Philosophy
A perfect light summer fragrance: smells like a clean cotton t-shirt with a hint of sunscreen. Extremely soft and delicate, it almost feels like you’re not wearing fragrance at all. Very fresh, soapy-clean, floral musky scent.
Dans Tes Bras by Frederic Malle
A beautiful, elegant and complex mix of florals and musk. It doesn’t smell like, but rather feels like wearing a crisp clean shirt: airy and fresh.
Aqua Universalis by Maison Francis Kurkdjian
A simple and linear spring/summer fragrance: it’s citrusy, clean and with musky and soapy undertones. It also has that fresh out of the shower, crisp linen vibe.
White Linen by Estée Lauder
Sparkling, bright and crisp aldehydic scent. Aldehydes are sharp in the opening, followed by flowers (rose, iris, hyacinth, carnation, lilac, violet) and a fruity peach note down to sandalwood and amber in the dry down. It’s fresh and cold in a very pleasant way: like a fresh linen on warm skin on a hot summer day.
I have the warm cotton one. Thinking about adding another clean scent to my collection
