September and October’s fragrances and products
Autumn is about to start and, as the days go by, the fresh summer fragrances gradually shift to warmer, more comforting yet subtle scents that suit the shorter afternoons and cooler evenings. In this season, the air brings a sensory revolution with fragrances becoming more pronounced. Here’s a list of Alchimia Soap’s autumn scents and products.
The first autumn fragrance: fig-scented soaps
Figs mark the beginning of autumn, with their scent closely associated with the early days of September. The fig fragrance blends fresh and rich notes, offering a fruity sweetness that’s never overpowering, with subtle balsamic hints. It evokes the scent of trees’ leaves and ripe fruit, while capturing the warmth of summer that gently carries into early autumn, warming the heart.
Alchimia Soap’s fig body products are:
Olive oil, the Mediterranean scent
Autumn is the olive harvesting season, which takes place at the end of September and the beginning of October. Olive oil is a concentration of virtues that can be applied to several fields, including cosmetics, thanks to its nourishing and antioxidant properties, especially during cooler months, when skin needs extra hydration. Olive oil’s fragrance instantly evokes the Mediterranean maquis, with fresh green notes and a warm, softly herbaceous finish. It’s the scent of the countryside, leaves and land still warmed by the late summer sun, perfect for anyone looking for a subtle, natural fragrance.
Our olive products come in the following formats:
- olive oil liquid soap;
- olive oil soap bar from the classic line;
- olive oil scented water;
- olive oil scented candle.
Sweet, delicate almond soaps
Almonds may not be the first fruits that come to mind for autumn, but they are harvested between late August and October, and their scent is one of the most distinctive aromas of the season. What sets it apart is its sweet, almost marzipan-like aroma that leaves a warm yet subtle trail, evoking the cosy feeling of the first cool evenings. Almond’s gourmand fragrance offers a soft and familiar olfactory experience, hinting at flowers and the fruit’s heart.
To feel it on the skin, we recommend the following products:
Sandalwood and cedarwood: early autumn’s woody fragrances
Warmer and enveloping woody notes give life to sophisticated autumn atmospheres filled with a sense of refined intimacy. As leaves begin to fall, nature reveals its most authentic scents of earth, wood, and moss, with rich woody aromas taking the spotlight. For example, sandalwood, with its creamy, balsamic notes, and cedarwood, dryer, resinous, and slightly spicy, are suitable for men’s body-care products that make elegance and persistence their distinctive features.
Our Line for men includes body-care products with the following fragrances:
