Consumers are consistently attracted to high-end fragrances in the same way they are drawn to designer fashion – in pursuit of quality, aspiration and craftmanship. Perfume is a highly personal choice, and inextricably linked to memory and some of our most intimate emotions.
Perfume and Aftershave Trends
As with beauty and fashion, perfume trends come and go. Popular products also change with the seasons. So, for autumn, for example, rich earthy notes and warm spices naturally replicate the feel of the cooler months, while aromas including vanilla, caramel and almond are comforting and sought-after at this time of year, as are deep florals including rose, marigold and geranium, which you could combine with some lighter floral notes.
So, in any new season, a perfume you buy because it suits the time of year in which you give it can make the ideal gift.
Other recent perfume favourites have included a trend towards gender-neutral scents, due to fashion and beauty’s current obsession with the turn of the millennium – CK One was the first perfume like this, launched in the mid-1990s. Another theme is anything related to wellness and botanicals, inspired by the popularity of the shade olive-green in fashion.
Smokey ouds are also making scent-sational news in 2024. These come from a fragrant oil taken from tree resin. Middle Eastern perfume have become increasingly popular on TikTok, and oud is an ingredient that several eastern brands are reinterpreting to highlight its woody, leathery personality. Some top names, including Hermès and Tom Ford, have got in on the oud act.
There are also a few perfume trends now which may initially sound rather improbable. These include milky textures such as almond milk, which are comforting and indulgent, particularly in autumn. They smell familiar and cosy and may be trending due to the growing popularity of products like almond milk.
A couple of fruits which you may not immediately have thought of as suitable to wear as scents are also racing up the fragrance charts. These include banana (yes, really!) and mango. While the latter is comforting, banana goes surprisingly well with jasmine notes and is creamy, fun and vibrant. Marc Jacobs has incorporated banana blossom in his Daisy Wild Eau de Parfum, for example, creating something unique, bold and feminine.
Trending scents from Dialect Fragrances

Our current best-selling products reflect the season, including, for example:
Spicy Vanilla Obsession
Spicy Vanilla Obsession takes Yves Saint Laurent’s Black Opium as its inspiration, and we offer it at £24.99, saving you a whopping 78% on the original £95 price. Expect notes of vanilla and amber at the base, with middle notes incorporating jasmine, cedar and sandalwood. And with top notes of comforting marshmallow, plum, coffee beans, orange blossom and bergamot, this one’s perfect as we slide deeper into autumn.
Amber Infusion
Amber Infusion is based on MFK’s unisex fragrance Baccarat Rouge 534, with the crucial difference that you pay £34.99 instead of £245, saving you almost 90%.
Expect jasmine top notes, while the middle notes are of amber wood and amber gris, and the base notes of fir resin and cedar wood, so this product ideal to wear this new season.
Vibrant Woods
Taking Creed’s Aventus aftershave as its inspiration, Vibrant Woods is another of our current bestsellers. Think fresh, fruity bergamot notes at the start, alongside gourmand pineapple and lemon. This is followed by spicy blackcurrant and leather, plus a modern, woody patchouli. The final notes are of ambergris and woody moss. So, again, this is perfect for this time of year.
Tobacco Opulence
The inspiration for unisex scent Tobacco Opulence is Tom Ford’s Tobacco Vanille. Look forward to base notes of vanilla, amber wood and tonka bean, middle notes of clove and ginger plus top notes of cinnamon for a distinctly autumnal aroma that’s voluptuous, intense and sensual. It’s also a warm scent – ideal as temperatures dip. What’s more, again it’s nearly 90% cheaper than the original.
