Best Spring/Summer Rainy day scents!

post #1 of 10
Thread Starter 
What are some suggestions?

And which do you think of these would be best suitable:

Echo, Visit, Rochas, ... I'm not really sure, but Visit kinda reminds me of the smell of a rainy day.

Angeliques Sous La Pluie by Editions de Parfums de Frederic Malle. It's created by JC Ellena. Basenotes says: " A fresh composition based on angelicas after the rain has fallen". I truly love this fragrance, but does not stay long on me.

Floris Pink Grapefruit comes to mind! Not a plain ole citrus.

Hmmm

I'm glad this discussion is on. I'm very particular about matching fragrances with the weather. I understand not everybody does that. Some people insist, "I wear what I like, when I like" and I accept that. As for me, mood, weather, and dress style are the determinants.
Specifically for summer/spring rainy days I love:
Aramis 900 for the green/herbs
Aramis Devin for the green/herbs and leather (it's not overpowering like Yatagan). To me, both create the appropriate green/garden/country mood that I associate with that type of weather. Both have a balance of delicate florals (a hint but almost feminie) and boldness (dry in 900, just enough leather in AD).
And
Guerlain Vetiver--at once fresh and warm. I especially like to have it on during summer days when the weather turns cloudy and humid, just before a summer storm, sort of an incongruent hot/cool.
Still, I could wear other things if my mood changes but these came to mind first.

VOLEUR DE ROSES

Quimbaya. It is suitable for a humid hot weather.

For some reason, all the rose scents I've tried seem to strike me as good rainy day options. Villoresi's Musk is another that stands out.

Another vote for Voleur de Roses.

After a few sunny spring days it´s raining again and surely I will wear VdR tomorrow.

I don't have many perfumes, but from the ones I have, I'd like to think of Grey Flannel being a rainy day perfume.
