Choosing the right fragrance for work can feel like a balancing act—you want to smell great, feel confident, but still keep things professional without crossing into “too much” territory. The ideal workday scent enhances your presence without making you worry if you’re overwhelming your colleagues.
Here are three fragrances—each from a different Scent Space—that prove you can stand out in the best way possible, without smelling like “too much."
Paper+ Bold
Your Everyday Signature
Paper+ Bold is the definition of a signature scent. Its main molecular note, Iso E Super, plays off your skin’s unique chemistry to create a scent that’s yours alone. Paired with its “best kept secret” status, it’s the kind of fragrance no one else in the office will be wearing—and that’s the point.
“Paper+ is my best kept fragrance secret, but I think it deserves a little more love! It’s my go-to for in-office days; smells great without being overpowering.” –Kelly B.
Milk- Personal
Still Earns Compliments
Soft, warm, and quietly confident, Milk- Personal is perfect for days when you want to feel pulled-together while still inviting compliments along the way.
“I use this almost every day during the autumn and winter months and get so many compliments on it. It lasts all day and is soft enough that I don't have to worry about it being overpowering in an office setting at work.” –Ashley T.
Velvet Expressive
Confidence in Comfort
Smooth and sophisticated, Velvet Expressive offers a warm sweetness that balances being professional enough for back-to-back meetings and comforting enough to make the day feel a little easier.
“I can smell it on me as a move a certain way but does not impact my office mates. It's warm and sweet like a hug or wrapping up in a cozy blanket on the sofa with a good book.” –Joanne W.
Your office fragrance should elevate your presence without becoming the whole conversation. These scents prove you can be memorable and polished without ever being—or worrying about being—overpowering.
