Every day here at Allure, our editors receive the newest perfumes from the largest fragrance houses and the smallest indie brands all before they make it to market, so we can get an exclusive look — or sniff — at what the upcoming season's best perfumes will be. If you think walking by a department store's fragrance counters is intimidating, you should get a look at our work-from-home desks. So, what are the latest and greatest fragrances gracing our scent collection? If you've noticed a transition from ultra-sweet fruity scents to more robust fragrances, we have, too — and it's not just a coincidence. Perfumer Mandy Aftel tells Allure that due to a longing for fresh air and the outdoors in our post-COVID world, there's been a spike in the demand for what she calls "green" notes. These aren't "natural scents," per se, but more so what Aftel describes as fragrances with fresh and herbaceous properties to them — a rather sharp turn from the traditional warmth associated with perfumes for the cooler months. But that doesn't mean we're bidding farewell to our floral fragrances or spicier perfumes for good. There's room for all of them in our collections. It has been a life-long dream of mine to create a perfume that speaks to women everywhere,” comments Barbara. “I believe that within every woman there is a pretty woman and my signature fragrance helps bring that out that inner beauty, confidence and spirit so they feel strong, empowered, sensual and pretty.”

Pretty Woman” immediately arouses warm, upbeat feelings, bringing to mind that iconic Roy Orbison song and conjuring up images of that favorite fairytale movie. And now, the power of that name will translate to an enchanting new fragrance from Roy Orbison’s wife Barbara. Like the notes of a song, the notes of Pretty Woman Perfume open to reveal a delightful melody of florals, spices and woods. It is a complex blend of hundreds of individual floral and spicy notes. Its crisp, luminous bergamot top note evolves to reveal a full, vivacious middle note accord of stargazer lily, red rose and carnation. The fragrance’s base note accord of fresh amber, patchouli, vanilla, atlas cedar and sacred incense combine with a lingering everlasting warmth and harmony.
