Though a constant during this time of year, rain often spurs you to rethink your wardrobe with clothes with little weight and pieces with water resistance. It is also advisable to switch up your fragrance lineup to one that is heavier and spicy. In summer, fresh, floral perfumes can stir the senses, but as the weather turns rainy, perfumes that share some ingredients with hearty, hot soups and baked goods will feel more like monsoon-weather companions. Check out this list of perfumes that are perfect for rainy days. When it comes to a date, go vanilla, but for meetings or nights out, try black pepper or ginger.
Night Veils by Byredo: Reine de Nuit
“The scent of flowers after nightfall” in Night Veils Reine de Nuit’s description is enough to make you want to hoard it. Warm and spicy, it opens with notes of saffron and black currant, before enveloping you with notes of midnight rose, ambrette seeds, black amber and patchouli. The Swedish brand recently opened its first store in India at Jio World Drive, Mumbai.
31, Rue Cambon, Chanel
If I had to recommend one perfume to wear while exploring the streets of Paris, I would recommend this exclusive Les Exclusifs De Chanel fragrance. 31 Rue Cambon is the luxury boutique Gabrielle Chanel’s haven in the capital of France, and the eponymous fragrance mirrors Mademoiselle Gabrielle’s penchant for simplicity with bursts of luxurious ornaments like patchouli, sage, black pepper, and leather.
Etat Libre d’Orange Remarkable People Eau de Parfum

Black incense Malaki from Chopard
Everyone will ask you what perfume you are wearing when you wear Black Incense Malaki. You won’t find anything like it on your vanity, which makes it worth exploring. This gender-neutral elixir is opened with a bold accord of frankincense and is backed up by cumin, cardamom, and cinnamon. These decadent delicacies will pique your taste buds all day long.
Hermès Twilly d’Hermès Eau Ginger
The third type to join the Twilly d’Hermès tribe, this one is sweet and spicy at the same time. It starts with peony, which is fresh and energetic. However, the one thing that brings this tea to life is its subtle pop of refreshing ginger at the end, making it a wonderful morning beverage regardless of what the weather is like.
Dior Spice Blend
Spice Blend aspires to evoke a fragrant taste of some of the world’s freshest spices, succeeding in fulfilling its moniker. Blending the Madagascan black pepper with ginger extract and other flavors that make a deep impression, while a rum extract instills freshness into the scent.
