With nights getting darker, temperatures dropping (albeit very slowly this year), and the temptation to indulge in a whole new wardrobe becoming increasingly more difficult, winter is well and truly on its way.

You can almost smell the winter season before it arrives - log fires, candles burning, fresh crisp air. There’s something so romantic and comforting about the scents that cold weather brings. Floral, light fragrances are out, and woody, spicy fragrances are in. The change in weather is the perfect time to switch up your fragrance wardrobe, and there’s one brand that should definitely be on your radar when you are thinking about your winter scent:

Thomson Carter is a British fragrance house that is redefining luxury by using classic scent notes and ingredients to create long-lasting, unique scents. From masculine, feminine, to unisex, they have a wide range of classic, high-quality scents that will have you smelling and feeling expensive. Here are some of our favourite picks for winter.

Bois De Santal

If you’re looking for a fragrance to take you from a day in the office to after-work drinks, look no further. Bois De Santal features a harmonious blend of neroli, bergamot, and sandalwood to create a warm sophisticated scent. The sandalwood gives it creamy, warm undertones combined with vibrant notes of bergamot to add a fresh, bright touch.

Postcards From

Winter brings a level of sophistication, and Postcards From really brings to life the dark, sultry, and mysterious atmosphere of the winter season. This sophisticated fragrance is made up of a blend of cedar, saffron, and amber. The woody warmth of cedar combined with the aromatic allure of saffron creates a harmonious blend that gives it a refined and expensive scent.

Perfect for any date night or evening activity.

Rouge Avenue

This could be a product of Christmas romcoms, but with winter comes romance, and when it comes to finding the one, this next fragrance could be your perfect match.

Rouge Avenue opens with the vibrant, spicy notes of pink peppercorn and has the fresh, floral allure of jasmine. The warm, woody cedar base is what gives Rouge Avenue a sophisticated, sensual allure, making it an ideal addition to your winter fragrance lineup.

Tips for choosing the best winter fragrance: 

Opt for long lasting scent

To ensure your fragrance has longevity, eau de parfum is the way to go, as they have a high concentration of fragrance oils and tend to last longer on the skin. Thomson Carter fragrances are exclusively eau de parfum so you can be certain that your scent will stay with you throughout the day and into your evening plans 

Consider the notes

Winter scents can differ, quite dramatically, from summer scents. When changing up your scent wardrobe look for fragrances with ingredients like amber, sandalwood, cedar and vanilla. These will create a rich and seductive scent. Any additional notes like peppercorn, cinnamon or neroli will give the fragrance a light, spicy touch. The perfumes in this post have many of these notes making them perfect for the colder season. 

Put yourself first 

With the festive season comes party season and between Halloween, bonfire night and Christmas parties you want to be smelling and feeling your best. Luxury is at the forefront of Thomson Carter and from the moment you open the slick black box, to your first spray of fragrance the Thomson Carter experience will have you feeling considered and sophisticated. So you can go into the holiday period feeling like the best version of yourself.
