You’ve officially traded your bikinis for sweaters and your flip-flops for boots. Your moisturizer’s a bit thicker and you’re not leaving the house with wet hair, but what about your perfume? It might be hard to ditch your summer scent as you cling to fall’s brief sunshine, but it’s time to let them go (for now). Luckily, there’s a slew of new fragrances that will make you feel a little better about chilly nights. From rich florals to deep musks—and even one to share with your man—these are the scents making shorter days a little more enjoyable.
