When the inevitable happens to what feels like an endless season, memories of summer vacation will last. Carrying us through to next year will be the poignant nostalgia for the sights, sounds and scents that comprise our current lifestyle. Summering at home or abroad, one spritz of these new fragrances will forever bring us back to this unforgettable sun-kissed season. —Julia Dumbrell

Great read, really captured the essence of summer! I’m quite tempted by the “Tropical Escape” you mentioned. Is it something that can be worn year-round without feeling out of place? Also curious if there are any recommendations on where to find these scents at a reasonable price? I stumbled upon https://world-prices.com that talks about prices globally, but I’m not too sure how reliable or updated it is. Thanks!
