Fragrance? For a gift? Too personal, one might say. That’s exactly the point. Here, we’ve sorted the best scents into astrologically linked, present-ready categories: think spicy notes for fire signs, solar fragrances for water, light, musk-y sprays for air and terrain-type bottles for earth.

Air (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius):

Light and impossibly soft was the obvious directive for Diptyque L’Eau Papier. White musk is what you’ll note right off the top, but a collection of equally airy and shape-shirting scents — luminous mimosa, blonde wood and rice steam — is what give it that early springtime energy.

Chanel’s latest interpretation of Chance Eau Fraîche — a fragrance icon for nearly twenty years — is a solar scent in every sense of the word.
