Fragrances Our Partners Love

Byredo Mixed Emotions Eau de Parfum ($225)

“I’m a broken record about Byredo’s Mixed Emotions. It’s a woodsy, smoky scent that makes me feel like I’m living in another world. It’s how I imagine a luxe, well-traveled woman from a far-away fabled city like Macondo or Xanadu might have smelled. It’s also my boyfriend's favorite because I wore it on our first date, and he says it smells like me.” —Tatiana Bido, director of aesthetic content

Phlur Mood Ring Eau de Parfum ($99)

“I wore this on the day my fiancé proposed. I had it on all week because we were traveling, and it was the only scent I brought, so it really brings both of us back to that special time. The bright, fruity notes perfectly encapsulate the euphoric vibes of getting engaged on a cliff in San Diego. We both have such a connection to the scent because of the associated memories.” —Allie Hogan, senior beauty editor
