As much as a scent can unlock a long-kept memory, it can also whisk us away to a faraway land and even places we have never been with a single whiff. It pretty much explains why wearing fragrance is the daily dose of self-indulgence for most of us when the world was on lockdown &mdash; we needed reminders of the beautiful things in life.
Those were days when escapism was needed most yet the neighbourhood grocery store was the furthest to venture, and wearing fragrance has then truly evolved into a personal act of self-care to feel optimistic and inspired.
<div>While every fragrance holds the unique power to whisk us through time and space, there are scents designed solely to transport you on a journey to faraway destinations &mdash; be it calmness or adventure that you&rsquo;re seeking.&nbsp;Whether you&rsquo;re missing the memories of a runaway, dreaming of a paradise or looking for a scent for your next vacation, follow your nose to where your heart is.</div>

LES EAUX DE CHANEL Paris- Édimbourg

LES EAUX DE CHANEL PARIS- ÉDIMBOURG
As part of the LES EAUX DE CHANEL collection, Paris- Édimbourg evokes an olfactory journey to the wild and magnificent countryside of Scotland where the venturesome lifestyle heavily inspired Gabrielle Chanel and her work. Defined as a scent as comfortable as a borrowed-from-theboys tweed jacket, it has smoky cedar and vetiver in the middle of fresh juniper berry and cypress top notes, and earthy, musky base notes to leave a warm and comforting trail.

Goutal Eau d’Hadrien

GOUTAL EAU D&rsquo;HADRIEN
Goutal encapsulates an entire Tuscan summer in Eau d&rsquo;Hadrien. As refreshing as it is nostalgic, this eau de parfum marries bright citrusy notes with comforting ylang-ylang and musk to bring you back to simpler days when all you did was have fun in the sun-drenched yard.

Maison Margiela Replica Under the Lemon Trees

MAISON MARGIELA REPLICA UNDER THE LEMON TREES
Replica Under the Lemon Trees by Maison Margiela sparkles with kalamansi lime accord and trails off with coriander and musk. This fruity-earthy eau de toilette is an invite to escape to a countryside where citrus trees are lush and the afternoon breeze wafts a fresh scent into the air.
