As the old fragrance adage goes, a spritz of a perfume can mentally transport you to the vacation of your dreams. And, for 2024, wanderlust is on everyone’s minds when picking their ideal summer scent.
From the ever popular beaches along the Mediterranean to the Kenyan coast, our favorite brands are currently inspired by idyllic vacation spots that will bring on the good vibes. Sweet florals and gourmands are as popular as ever, and even surprisingly, notes such as mango and coconut water have become key notes in this season’s best scents.
So if you’re in the market for something new to add to your fragrance wardrobe, you’ve come to the right place. Below are 15 summer fragrances to try this season—and beyond.

Bella Hadid’s first foray into beauty is a collection of perfume oils that we simply can’t stop obsessing over. For the warmer months, we love Blooming Fire, which is a mix of monoi flower, patchouli, and bergamot. One whiff, and it will whisk you away (mentally of course) to a tropical oasis, which is all we went this summer.

Charlotte Tilbury’s fragrances are all about getting in touch with our emotions. Thanks to the use of a special A.I. technology, the collection is made of notes that are picked from an ingredient-driven algorithm and proven to make consumers feel a specific type of way. For this summer, we especially love Calm Bliss for its soothing and easy going nature. Made with notes of neroli oil, orange blossom, lavender, you get an aquatic aroma that is just so dreamy and carefree—just as summer should be.
