The Perfumes We’re Wearing

Discover the Faradays team’s favourite fragrances this season

As autumn has well and truly set in here in Auckland, and with winter just around the corner, we asked a few members of the Faradays team about the seasonal scents they’re adoring the most, for the cosy, cooler months.

xerjoff Golden Dallah

Constance, Co-founder and Creative Director

My favourite autumn fragrance:  Xerjoff Golden Dallah

Why I love it: This rich and complex scent is utterly divine, and is hard for us to keep in stock. I love my perfumes to look beautiful in the bottle and this just reminds me of a warm glow from a winter fire.

It has countless notes that linger all day, but three that stand out which identify with me greatly are: head notes, fresh; heart notes, coffee; base notes, chocolate. It’s the perfect autumn/winter scent.

Loewe Colon

Elizabeth, Head of Hospitality, Faraday’s Bar

My favourite autumn fragrance: Descubriendo Colón - Loewe

Why I love it: I've always been drawn to what have traditionally been considered "masculine" scents and this perfume has all the hallmarks of a Pour Homme - I love the notes of tobacco and leather, spices and smoke.

Wearing it makes me feel like I'm enveloped in a country house study, reading a book by a roaring fire, with a cigar and glass of whisky in hand. But there's also something slightly floral and sweet as it warms on the skin which softens it.

Xerjoff Uden Overdose Parfum

Chelsea, Store Manager

My favourite autumn fragrance: Xerjoff Uden Overdose

Why I love it: It’s a woody, spicy scent that I have gravitated towards since the beginning of my journey with Faradays, it has rich notes of Tobacco and Amber and beautiful aromatics to give hints of freshness.

To add an extra statement to my scent, I layer it with Roja Dove Pour Homme DANGER Parfum as I find that these two powerful scents layered together spark some additional fire to my personality and speaks very true to my individual style.

Xerjoff Irisss

Brigit, Head of Buying

My favourite autumn fragrance: Xerjoff Irisss (17/17 collection)

Why I love it: I’m fascinated by the story of how they distil the scent from Irises, given they don't naturally have a scent. I also love that a piece of malachite is fixed to every bottle, it is such a stunning shade of green.

Hermetica Lavincense

My favourite autumn fragrance: Hermetica Lavincense

Why I love it: This beautiful and sophisticated fragrance is so grounding and calming for the senses, and features some of my favourite notes - rich lavender, bergamot, amber, cedarwood, cinnamon and precious sage nuances.

I have been applying it every morning for the past month and have really noticed its positive effect on my general state of mind. I feel like I can tackle any day head on with this enveloping scent as my support.

I also love that it is alcohol-free and proactively hydrating for the skin.

Loewe Agua El

Eliot, Stock Controller

My favourite autumn fragrance: Loewe Agua El

Why I love it: It has a very strong, refreshing citrus scent whilst having a slightly salty, oceanic aroma. It's rather sweet but remains fresh, sort of like a cold fresh lemonade on a hot summer's day. It’s not particularly autumn/winter vibing but it’s a scent I love wearing all year round.

Loewe Aura Floral

Emily, Clientele Manager

My favourite autumn fragrance: Loewe Aura Floral

Why I love it: It’s sweet but also a little sexy. From the first time I wore this, I’ve been asked what fragrance I’m wearing almost every time. I think that’s what is so special about all of the fragrances at Faradays, though. They smell like nothing alike to any I’ve tried before.
