My Top 3 Niche Perfumes for Fall

I am desperately waiting for the weather to change so I can start reacquainting myself with my autumn and winter fragrances. It still is summer during the day, but I get a glimpse at night of what will come, and I get excited. You will see a theme in my choices, but if unsure, I will let you know at the end.

Here are my top 3 niche perfumes for fall

  1. Xerjoff Ouverture
  2. Parfums de Marly Delina Exclusif
  3. Memo Shams Oud

Xerjoff Ouverture

Ouverture by Xerjoff is an Oriental Floral fragrance for women and men and launched in 2019.

Top notes are Fig Leaf, Orange and Magnolia.

Middle notes are Cinnamon, Ylang-Ylang, Indian Jasmine and Bulgarian Rose.

Base notes are Sandalwood, Vanilla, Amber, Cashmere Wood and Incense.

This masterpiece was created by Chris Maurice. I adore this fragrance for autumn, winter and spring however, it has a very special place in my heart for autumn.

This is a complex fragrance, offering a captivating blend of sweet, spicy, fruity, floral, and gourmand elements. The top notes of fig leaf, magnolia, and orange introduce a fresh, bright opening, while the middle notes enhance warmth and richness with cinnamon, exotic florals, and romantic rose. The base notes bring everything together with a deep, comforting blend of cashmere, vanilla, amber, and sandalwood.

It is a perfume with an intricate and luxurious scent profile, evolving beautifully from fresh and citrusy to warm and sensual.

Parfums de Marly Delina Exclusif

Delina Exclusif by Parfums de Marly is an Oriental fragrance for women and launched in 2018.

The nose behind this fragrance is Quentin Bisch.

Top notes are Litchi, Pear, Bergamot, Grapefruit and Pink Pepper.

Middle notes are Turkish Rose, Agarwood (Oud) and Incense.

Base notes are Vanilla, Amber, Woody Notes, Musk, Vetiver and Evernyl.

This is a luminous and passionate sweet masterpiece of a fragrance constructed using only the finest ingredients. You can smell the quality. This perfume for me represents a confident woman, playful, feminine, and incredibly sexy!

Memo Shams Oud

Shams Oud by Memo Paris is an Oriental fragrance for women and men and launched in 2011.

Top notes are Pepper, Saffron and Ginger.

Middle notes are Cypriol Oil or Nagarmotha and Vetiver.

Base notes are Agarwood (Oud), French labdanum, Tolu Balsam, Styrax, Birch and Tonka Bean.

This is a very unique and sensual fragrance masterpiece. It is very sexy and seductive. This is a frankincense dream with some oud, but I would not say that it is an oud fragrance. This complex scent profile smells of dry wood, earthy, slightly sweet, with hints of citrus and spice. This is a beast of a fragrance and in my mind, the best fragrance from Memo Paris.

If great sex had a perfume, this would be it, and it immediately puts me in that frame of mind!

In the fall, I am naturally drawn to oriental fragrances which is the running theme between all 3 of my suggestions that I hinted to in the opening paragraph. The combination of spices, flowers, and woods evoke warmth, confidence, and sensuality.

Whichever out of the 3 you try, and/or buy, I know if you are like me, you will love!
