As much as we love summer, it often comes with annoying mosquitoes.
The good news is that some perfume notes act as natural repellents, keeping your skin free from bites and itches. Here are some top scents to ward off mosquitoes:
Citrus
Mosquito repellents often contain citrus scents like lemon because the acidic smell drives mosquitoes away. You can use essential oils, candles, or even rub lemon peel on your skin. A great fragrance with mosquito-repelling powers is Royal Oud. It blends notes of lemon and bergamot with cedar and oud to balance it out on the skin.
Lavender
While we love lavender’s sweet, floral scent, mosquitoes absolutely hate it.
Our perfumes, Spiced Oud and Fresh Oud include lavender notes, making them effective for keeping mosquitoes away.
Geranium
Geranium is another fantastic option. It smells amazing and is known for its ability to repel mosquitoes. The good thing is that you can find geranium in many fragrances like our Rose and Mastry. Keep them with you on the go for a fragrance that’s both beautiful and practical.
Make sure to pack these scents in your summer bag and say goodbye to those mosquito bites!
