“Maison Francis Kurkdjian’s Aqua Vitae Forte is the freshest, crispest, most addictive blend of bergamot, cardamom, sandalwood, pepper, and vetiver imaginable. It’s a shock to the senses in the best possible way. Like any truly great fragrance, it drives me slightly insane. Sometimes, when I’m lying in bed at night, I think about getting up in the morning and putting it on again. It’s really that good.”

“There is a Maison Martin Margiela scent which is literally the bottled smell of French beach—seventies sun, oil, and sand. Otherwise, I can’t go without Chanel’s Cristalle.”

“I generally skew towards citrusy scents year-round, but in the summer, I especially love to wear Atelier Cologne’s Bois Blonds. The mix of orange blossom, vetiver, and neroli always makes me feel like I just took a dip in the Mediterranean.”
