Best Fragrances and Scents to Wear in Fall 2026
As the weather gets colder, the fuzzy socks and heated blankets start to come out … and another way to exude warmth is by adding a spicy scent to your fragrance collection.
“In the fall, we often look for warm, sensual, resinous smells, like rich vanillas and spices,” Haugen said.
For a resinous and spicy vibe, Ammons likes Nefer by Parfum Prissana, a scent inspired by ancient Egyptian perfumery. You’ll find notes of saffron, cardamom, and nutmeg, alongside hints of amber, tangerine, and rose.
Another one of Ammons’ favorites is Honey Body by Syd Botanica, a spicy, sensual fragrance that’s perfect for fall. Although Sichuan pepper is one of its featured notes, Ammons said the honey and apricot give it a nice mix of spicy and sweet.
