Best Summer Perfumes for 2018.

If you’re like me, you wear perfume everyday rain or shine, whether you’re going out to the club, or staying home alone lounging in yoga pants. I’m what you would call a total Frag Head! I need perfume like I need water.

Without a spritz, I feel like a basic B. with no purpose or direction in life. So with Summer right around the corner, I find myself putting away my Dior Hypnotic Poison’s and Addicts, and looking for a lighter, more refreshing scent.

So I scoured Fragrantica for the best, most raved about summer scents this year, so you don’t have to.

And without further ado…

1) PRADA LA FEMME

A classic white floral perfect for daywear, office wear. Very sophisticated, very clean. This won’t offend anyone or get you the side eye from co-workers. A classy woman’s scent. The notes are: Spices, honey, Iris, tuberose, Frangipani, vetiver, ylang-ylang, vanilla.
