My Summer Ritual, Now Featuring Durance

One of my recent obsessions? Durance Eau de Parfum.

Crafted in Provence with the finest natural ingredients, these scents feel like bottled sunlight and summer fields. There’s something about them that makes you want to slow down and just be—and isn’t that the point of perfume?

Radiant Camellia is my current go-to. It’s soft, luminous, and ever-so-feminine—like freshly washed hair, a white cotton dress, and a lazy afternoon all at once.

Verbena is bright and zesty—perfect for early mornings or workdays where you need a mental pick-me-up that doesn’t shout.

Lavender is subtle yet charming—ideal for warm evenings when you want to feel elegant, even if you’re just on your balcony with a book and iced tea.

What I love most is that these scents don’t demand attention. They linger gently, mix with the warmth of your skin, and make people lean in just a little closer.

How I Apply Eau de Parfum in Summer (Without Overdoing It)

Here’s my simple summer perfume ritual:

• Start with well-moisturized skin. A light, unscented lotion helps your perfume last longer.

• Spritz lightly on pulse points. I usually go for wrists, behind the ears, and sometimes the collarbone.

• Avoid the hair in high heat. It can dry it out. Instead, spray a mist into the air and walk through it.

• Reapply in the evening. A quick refresh before dinner or a sunset walk changes everything.

Why Perfume Isn’t Just About Smelling Good

Perfume is personal. It’s a signature, a mood booster, a form of self-expression. In summer, it’s a sensory escape—a moment of cool in the warmth, a reminder that beauty doesn’t need to be loud to be unforgettable.

You don’t need a fancy occasion to wear a beautiful fragrance. Sometimes, the quietest mornings, the solo coffee runs, the quick grocery trips—those are the best moments to wear something special.

Durance Eau de Parfums are a beautiful starting point if you want a fragrance that feels thoughtful, not overpowering. Whether you’re looking for floral, fresh, or subtly sweet, their collection has a quiet sophistication that’s perfect for warmer months.

This summer, I’ve made fragrance part of my daily routine—not for anyone else, but for me.

It’s a quick spritz that makes folding laundry feel luxurious. A scent trail that stays behind on a cotton scarf. A reminder that even the smallest rituals can bring the biggest joys.

So if you’ve ever thought eau de parfum was too “much” for summer, maybe it’s just about finding the right one.
