Our Top Scents for the Summer - Autumn Transition

When the evenings start to have a bite in the air, it’s time to switch our bright, sun soaked summer scents for something a little more comforting. 

We’re in that strange inbetween month where we’re not quite ready for full blown pumpkin spice and cinnamon, but craving something warm and cosy.

These are our favourite transitional scents perfect for the last days of Summer and the first hints of Autumn.

We’re starting with something that feels like the perfect bridge between seasons. Oakwood & Mandarin is bright and fresh enough to remind you of the last warm days of summer, yet it has enough depth to feel cosy as the evenings start to cool. It’s the ideal first scent for this inbetween period, familiar and uplifting, but hinting at the richer, woodier fragrance of autumn to come.

Wild Fig & Cedar, this one leans a little more earthy, capturing the feeling of those first rainy days of early Autumn. The fresh fig notes keep it light and calming, while the cedar adds depth and a grounded warmth. It’s the kind of scent that feels comforting and soothing, ideal for when the weather starts to turn but you still want a touch of freshness.

Then there's Eastern Rose, this one feels luxurious and sophisticated, the kind of scent that instantly elevates your mood. Woody yet floral, it’s rich but delicate, with velvety rose notes and a hint of smoky warmth. Perfect for when you want something indulgent and comforting as the days grow cooler, without feeling too heavy.

This is where we start to lean into woody scents with Fireside, though it’s lighter than some of the deeper fragrances to come. It’s versatile enough to be burnt all year round, and it’s a customer favorite for good reason. Warm teakwood, cedar, patchouli, and a touch of lavender make it comforting without feeling heavy, the perfect cosy companion for early Autumn evenings.

Ancient Amber & Spice is a special one, a scent that’s hard to put into words. Rich with exotic spices and smouldering woods, it captures the feeling of being on the cusp of Autumn. Warm, deep, and inviting, it’s the kind of fragrance that immediately evokes cosy evenings and the first hints of cooler weather, making it perfect for those moments when Summer feels like it’s truly fading away.

Finally, Dark Honey & Amber is one of the richest fragrances in the collection, marking the final step before fully stepping into Autumn. Bright bergamot, spicy cinnamon, warm sandalwood combine to create a scent that’s both indulgent and cosy. Perfect for crisp evenings and the unmistakable feeling of Autumn settling in.

Autumn is all about slowing down, embracing warmth, and finding comfort in little moments and the right scent can make that change feel effortless.

I hope this guide helps you discover the perfect fragrances to make you own transition.
