10 of the Best Winter Fragrances to Discover at Harrods

Golden warmth in a bottle

Myrrhe Mystère envelops your skin in layers of smoky myrrh, vanilla and sandalwood. It’s a fragrance that conveys quiet confidence – resinous and rich, but never overpowering. Imagine cashmere, candlelight and the glow of amber resin on a cold winter evening.

Magnetic, creamy and addictive

True to its name, this new scent from Initio Parfums Privés is an exploration of skin chemistry and desire. Notes of musk, sandalwood and ambrette create an intimate aura – soft yet intoxicating, like a second skin. It's Initio’s signature hedonism distilled into one alluring juice.

Confidence meets legacy

A Harrods bestseller for a reason – smoky birch, blackcurrant and musk create a scent that’s powerful yet elegant, ideal for winter occasions when you want to leave a lasting impression that cuts through the cold.

Warm, radiant and elegant

Introducing Le Beau – an exquisite fragrance that embraces the chilly season through ambered wood, musk and creamy vanilla. A radiant blend of citrus and soft florals dances atop, adding a sophisticated air to this bold scent. Think of it as bottling the first light of a winter morning: the chill is invigorating, yet you're wrapped up warm in your finest wool.

Dark vanilla with modern elegance

Forget sweetness – this is vanilla reimagined. A smoky, aged interpretation that leans woody, resinous and quietly sensual. With amber, cashmere wood and cistus at its base, Vanille Antique feels like candlelight flickering through soft suede. Refined yet comforting, it’s one of the season’s most wearable luxuries.

Mineral leather meets bold brightness

Ganymede balances contrasts: suede and saffron against a sparkling mandarin and violet accord. The result is smooth, airy, and futuristic. Never heavy, it’s cool, modern and a niche perfume in the best possible way.

A marriage of lush florals and golden amber

This isn’t a light floral – Hibiscus Mahajad is bold, radiant and enveloping. The hibiscus accord blends with rose, vanilla and leather to create something both otherworldly and comforting. It’s the olfactory equivalent of velvet – warm, sensorial and luminous on cold skin.

A gourmand lover’s delight

Created by perfumer Gaël Montero, Choco Loco is pure indulgence with a twist – a dessert at its most decadent. Cocoa powder, caramel fudge and burnt sugar swirl through clouds of whipped cream and vanilla, grounded by musky ambrette and cookie dough. It’s comfort and chaos in equal measure: sweet, creamy and utterly unapologetic.

Spicy warmth and cashmere cosiness

A cult favourite, By The Fireplace captures pure winter nostalgia – the name alone conjures a cosy indoor scene. Each spritz of smoky guaiac wood, clove and vanilla evokes the warmth of an open fire, delivering it straight to you, wherever you are. Sweet yet smoky, comforting yet refined, this Maison Margiela creation feels like a merino wool blanket and a mug of hot cocoa.

Electric elegance

A shimmer of spice, amber and soft musk – Blue Talisman is futuristic luxury. Sleek, radiant and magnetic, it defies the usual winter fragrance tropes, catering to those who want to turn heads. It's a scent that can't be smothered, no matter how many layers you're wearing. Its extrait concentration deepens the glow, with iris and woods grounding a crystalline freshness. Less a perfume, more an aura.
