In this video I’m chatting through new fragrance releases I’m aware of for 2026 — and this time it’s not a “tried and tested” situation. Some of these are already popping up in certain places, some have only just been announced, but I wanted to share what’s on my radar as I’m diving deeper into the fragrance world this year. I go brand by brand and I’m very honest about what I’m excited to sniff… and what I already know is probably a pass for me. I talk about why Lancôme Idôle Peach’N Roses does absolutely nothing for me (Idôle in general just doesn’t click), but Armani My Way Sunny Vanilla sounds right up my street because I love the sweeter, heavier tuberose versions — plus pineapple in the opening is a yes. I also cover YSL Libre Berry Crush (I can’t stop buying these even though they’re similar), Givenchy Irresistible Nectar (pistachio + vanilla cream? you have me), and a few that I’m curious about but cautious with, like Mugler Alien Pulp and Tom Ford Figue Erotique (never a blind buy for me). I wrap it up with a couple I’m hoping to find in advent calendars, like Vilhelm Sun Cities and Escentric Molecules M+ Champaca.
