With summer in full gear, now is the time for a wardrobe refresh. Your fragrance wardrobe, that is. To usher in the warmer weather, we have been swapping out our cosy vanilla perfumes and moody oud scents for something a little more vibrant and airy.

There are plenty of new summer fragrances claiming to have captured sunshine in a bottle; think refreshing bursts of citrus, breezy white florals, coconutty sunscreen and hints of ocean air. A single spritz of the right perfume can recover special memories from the past, from nostalgic childhood holidays to summer flings. Even if you're staying close to home this season, the right scent can make you feel like you’re jetting off to the Mediterranean (cue the TikTok-viral Jet2 Holiday advert music).

Ahead, we’ve sniffed our way through the latest perfume and body mist launches to bring you a selection of summer scents that are as carefree and joyful as a ray of sunshine.
