How the Aurora Scents picks smell
In the fragrance communities Scendira tracks, Cherry in The Woods, Vanilla Espresso and Atmosphere are the Aurora Scents perfumes that come up most.
Aurora Scents Cherry in The Woods, launched in 2025, smells like fresh berry cherry with creamy vanilla woodiness; cherry, blood orange, red apple and pear open it, and amberwood, vetiver, sandalwood, tonka bean and vanilla close it.
Sweet espresso cream with caramel and orange blossom is how Vanilla Espresso reads, starting on mandarin and cognac and finishing in cedarwood, vanilla, cream and cachalox.
Atmosphere is the cooler one: cool melon and mint, citrusy clean air, built from apple, ginger, kumquat and bergamot over musk, cedar, vetiver and amber.
