Your Guide to Scent Layering for Spring

Fresh air, lighter days, and a spring in your step as we meander into a new season full of hope, happiness and new fragrances.

Spring is the ideal time to embrace scent layering for a custom blend that lingers, letting everyone know you’re around. Evoke memories of spring flings, sunset beaches and BBQs with friends when you layer our tea based perfumes.

We’ve put together our own Scent Life guide to help you layer your spring fragrances with confidence. Learn to pair scents from our tea inspired collection and build your own fragrance routine for an effortlessly chic springtime.

What Is Scent Layering?

It’s simply wearing more than one perfume to create a custom fragrance blend filled with delicately balanced notes that work together to create something just for you.

Why stick with a single scent when you can combine notes that complement each other and mingle, giving you depth, contrast and an instant way to boost your mood.

As we step into spring, you need a scent that is fresh, uplifting and light to mirror the breezy vibes of the season. Think the scent equivalent of sundresses and sandals! Something that captures long, sunny days, fresh blooms and the vibrant energy of the season of life.

Why Tea Based Perfumes Are Perfect for Layering

Herbal tea is a carefully balanced ritual designed to work within the natural flavours of the leaves whilst curating a blend to help heal, restore and nourish your body.

We’ve worked our socks off to give you a glimpse into the versatile, clean and nuanced scents you find across the world of herbal tea. Tea is great for customising, so we’ve made sure our perfumes work in exactly the same way.

• Zesty Earl Grey: Grapefruit, orange, rosemary, thyme, and more marry together to create a love affair perfect for all seasons.

• Chai Dreams: A legendary tea deserves a perfume to match. Not our first choice for spring, but somehow always welcome in any scent ritual!

• Forget Me Not: Zesty citrus and warm wood make a blend that catapults you into a spring meadow. Need a lift? Give this a spritz!

• Spring Reverie: Cactus flower, orange zest, and cloves give you the energy to celebrate every second of spring. Pair this with Manuka Memories for a seriously sweet springtime!

How to Build a Spring Fragrance Routine

It’s easy! Just think about balance and you’re already halfway there. It’s like music and lyrics, bunnings and sausage sizzles, tea and timtams, find a partnership that works and it’ll be your go to fragrance all spring.

1. Start with a Base

Grounding notes, clean scents, uplifting fragrances. Something easy to wear that gives you plenty of room to play with the next layer or two.

2. Add a Middle Layer

Florals, spice or citrus. Don’t overthink it. Just go for something that has a similar scent profile to your base, but not so similar that it brings nothing to the table.

3. Finish with a Flourish

I love a citrus finish, but honestly, just go with sparkle! Something that interests the nose as you drift on by in the sunshine. A little signature to say you’re passing through. Try to work within the fragrance family of the previous layers, but choose something that stands out, too!

Tips for Scent Layering Success

• Keep it simple: Two perfumes will usually do the trick. Don’t be tempted to add too many fragrances as over layering can get messy!

• Spray strategically: Pulse points, clothing and hair all work well for a scent that stays yet doesn’t overwhelm.

• Experiment as you please: Go for it! Do what you love and don’t let anybody stop you!
