Why do you need a different perfume in winter?
Cold, dry air slows how fragrance evaporates from your skin, so fresh citrus and aquatic notes fade quickly and feel thin. Warm base notes such as vanilla, amber, oud, tonka, coffee and woods hold on for longer and create a soft, cosy trail. That is why winter is eau de parfum season, and why the Anand Prive collection leans on these rich, long-lasting ingredients.
| Winter note | What it smells like | Find it in Anand Prive |
| Vanilla | Creamy, sweet, comforting | Night, Amber Black, Vanilla Absolute, Wood, Le Secret |
| Coffee | Roasted, dark, addictive | Amber Black, Night |
| Oud | Smoky, woody, luxurious | Leather Oud, Wood, Manik Oud Perfume Oil |
| Amber & ambergris | Warm, resinous, glowing | Queen, Sexy, Wood, Intense, Platinum |
| Tobacco | Rich, dry, slightly sweet | Vanilla Absolute |
| Incense | Spiritual, smoky, deep | Queen, Night, Leather Oud |
