"Frolicking Spring Fairy" Is My Aesthetic RN—15 On-Sale Perfumes That 100% Fit the Bill
I'm all for smelling angelic.


New York City is notorious for soft-launching spring, but after a roller coaster of warm to frigid temperatures, I think we can safely assume the balmy weather is here to stay. Cherry blossom plumes scatter the sidewalks, sunsets linger well past 8 p.m., and birds are chirping outside my window as I type this sentence. It's spring, baby! I don't know about you, but the thrill of the new season makes me want to embody my inner garden fairy and frolic in a grassy plain Julie Andrews style.
As such, all my spring beauty staples must ladder up to this springy aesthetic—think ethereal eye shadows, enchanting hair clips, and the dreamiest perfumes around. Nordstrom just launched a 15%-off fragrance sale (ending May 11) to help me secure the latter, and the picks are simply too good not to share. Keep scrolling if you, too, wish to enter every room like a gentle meadow breeze.
The 15 Best "Frolicking Spring Fairy" Scents FromReplica Store's Fragrance Sale
Consider this your sign to snag a Byredo best seller. Trust me—Mojave Ghost really is worth the hype. Its blend of violet, magnolia, sandalwood, and cedarwood is at once bright, woodsy, and completely irresistible. I have the hand-cream, bodywash, and body-lotion versions too, if that tells you anything about my scent obsession.
Confidence and power are at the forefront of this warm, fruity-floral fragrance, which makes sense given its "beast mode" quality. (Translation: It lasts all day long.) This is a fragrance that boldly announces its arrival with a trail of mandarin, golden pear, pink pepper, coconut milk, and vanilla.
I'm a proud Delina girl. It's a gorgeous, delicate scent (although, Snoop Dogg is reportedly a fan) that combines Turkish rose, lily of the valley, peony, bergamot, nutmeg, and musk for a floral, subtly spicy dry-down. Not to mention, the bottle is a piece of décor in and of itself.
Barénia is the ultimate cool-girl (cool fairy?) perfume. It's classified as a chypre, which is arguably the most sophisticated olfactory family out there given how it's fresh, floral, and woody all at once. As I shared in a previous review, Barénia is how I'd imagine a forest nymph with impeccable French taste would smell in real life.
Oh my god, this fragrance. I was enamored by the cedarwood-, cardamom-, bergamot-, pink peppercorn infused potion at first spritz. It gives "earthy frolicking fairy" in the most elegant way… if said fairy was frolicking in the expansive Versailles gardens.
Supermodel Pritika Swarup once told me that this Creed fragrance "feels like a breath of fresh air," and I've been thinking about it ever since. The powers that be were clearly reading my mind since it's now tagged at 15% off.
I couldn't help but include another Byredo number on this list. When the cult-favorite brand goes on sale (which, ahem, rarely happens), you take advantage! While Blanche doesn't exactly scream spring floral, it's a soft, stunning blend that evokes fresh linen sheets softly drying in the breeze, and that feels quite springy, if you ask me. The Absolu version also amps up the heart of rose absolute, violet, and jasmine so you do get your floral fix.
Like its name suggests, this blend of grapefruit, bergamot, honeyed neroli and Earl Grey tea evokes the fresh breeze kissing your face on a windows-down drive. It's a stunning pick for spring and summer, and it's bound to earn you tons of compliments. (I'm speaking from experience here.)
Whenever Portrait of a Lady goes on sale, we must alert the masses. I don't make the rules! It's the most expensive-smelling scent you'll own—I guarantee.
