The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Is the Perfect Time to Craft Your Fragrance Wardrobe
Whether it's fresh and minimal, warm and layered, or floral with a bit of edge, the right scent can say a lot without being loud. And with a well-rounded fragrance wardrobe at your disposal, you'll always have at your fingertips the perfect speaker for the season, setting, location, and current mood. With sets featuring full-size favorites, travel sprays, and home essentials for incredible values, the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is the perfect opportunity to build or expand your fragrance rotation. Scent your life and home with the must-shop picks below. Orphéon has the vibe of slipping into a dimly lit jazz club in Paris. The blend of tonka bean, cedar, juniper berry, and jasmine is warm, androgynous, and quietly magnetic. The combination of these unique notes works harmoniously, and as the night goes on, the scent reveals layers that leave a lasting impression. Apply this for those moments when you want to feel poised—think date night, a gallery opening, or a quiet brunch where the ambience matters. This Nordstrom-exclusive two-piece set includes a 30-milliliter eau de parfum and a full-size hand and body gel. Use them together, and the scent will linger for hours in a wonderfully understated way. There's something about this scent pairing that feels like a fresh start. It's bright and citrusy, but never sharp—the basil and white thyme smooth things out with an herbaceous warmth that provides just enough edge. This set includes two full-size diffusers and two sets of reeds, making it easy to scent multiple spaces with intention. Place one in the entryway for an invigorating welcome the moment you step inside, and the other in a kitchen or shared living space where you want the scent to leave a lasting impression. This set of three mini perfumes is a beautifully edited introduction to both fragrance wardrobes in general and the world of Le Labo—a brand recognized for its quietly addictive scents—in particular. Each 5-milliliter vial is travel-friendly and thoughtfully chosen to highlight different vibes and notes. Another 13 is hypnotic and clean, built around ambrox and musk with hints of jasmine, moss, and ambrette seed. Eucalyptus 20 leans a bit woodier and more mysterious, with cedarwood, thyme, and smoky resins that give an expansive and grounded feel. Santal 33, arguably the brand's most iconic scent, blends Australian sandalwood, leather, and iris into a warm, instantly recognizable fragrance. This set comprises two of NEST's most popular scents. Bamboo smells clean, with notes of white florals and citrus that instantly brighten up a space. Grapefruit blends pink pomelo with watery notes, lily of the valley, and coriander blossom, and the result is bright and dewy, with a softness that always feels fresh. Place Bamboo in the bedroom or bathroom for a calming, spa-like feel. Use Grapefruit in the kitchen, entryway, or home office—wherever and whenever you need a little extra energy or focus. Both diffusers are full-size, and the glass vessels will please aesthetically wherever you place them. Valaya is a luminous floral-musky fragrance that's quietly commanding. At first spritz, it opens with a bright blend of bergamot, mandarin, and white peach, before unfolding into a heart of orange flower and nympheal. The dry down is warm and sensual, with ambrofix, akigalawood, and musk creating a finish that stays close to the skin while still turning heads. It's especially suited for daytime—lunch outdoors, museum afternoons, or weddings where you want to stand out without screaming for attention. The set includes a full-size 2.5-ounce eau de parfum and a 1-ounce. travel spray, both housed in sleek, weighty packaging that looks just as refined as the scent smells. Libre is the kind of fragrance that holds up during those full days with no breaks. It suits morning meetings, late-night drinks, and all the moments in between when you want to feel pulled together without being too buttoned up. There is clarity in its structure, elegance in its warmth, and enough personality to keep it interesting every time you wear it. It opens with a bright combination of tangerine, neroli, and French lavender that immediately feels crisp and distinctive. The heart of orange blossom and jasmine sambac adds softness and depth, while a base of vanilla, tonka bean, and white musk leaves a lasting impression—approachable but daring. This set includes a full-size 3-ounce eau de parfum, a travel-size spray for on-the-go wear, and a chic black cosmetics bag featuring subtle YSL branding. This is a floral scent built on contrast. It opens with fresh neroli, soft and luminous, before giving way to a heart of amber that adds warmth and sensuality. As it dries down, the musk base deepens the fragrance. Reach for Paradoxe when you need a confidence boost. It's a fitting match with a crisp blazer, vintage denim, or whatever else makes you feel like your absolute sharpest self. This set includes a full-size eau de parfum, a travel spray, and a perfumed body lotion for layering. A bright white-floral fragrance that feels both playful and polished, Flora Gorgeous Gardenia centers on that radiant gardenia, layered with pear blossom for a cheerful lift and grounded by jasmine grandiflorum for depth. Brown sugar adds just enough sweetness to round everything out without tipping into overly floral or powdery territory. Feminine without being fussy, this one is the ideal everyday scent. The set includes a full-size eau de parfum and a travel spray.

Nordstrom Anniversary Sale: Diptyque deals this good only come once a year
New York Post may be compensated and/or receive an affiliate commission if you click or buy through our links. Featured pricing is subject to change. I wasn't always one to splurge on luxury fragrances, but lately, thanks to addicting samples over the years, I've upgraded to a signature scent that isn't one for the masses. I wanted to feel put-together in the morning, with a scent that lingered like a siren's call. Married or not, I still want to be noticed, and this fragrance makes me feel like the best version of myself. So I turned to the source of scent-driven self-discovery: Diptyque, the iconic Parisian perfume house founded by artists in 1960 and rooted in creativity, craftsmanship, and the natural world. The best time to shop for expensive brands is during Nordstrom's once-a-year Anniversary Sale. Just because it's expensive doesn't mean we should spend all our money; we can be savvy about it. I found an exclusive Diptyque set that is worth your money if you care about public appearances. Shop the Orphéon Eau de Parfum & Cleansing Hand & Body Gel Set ($160 value) for just $115. Orphéon is one of those fragrances that lingers all day, sultry, woody, and soft, but never overpowering. Diptyque This Nordstrom-exclusive Diptyque set captures the soul of Paris's Saint-Germain quarter with Orphéon, a woody, aromatic blend inspired by jazz clubs, creative camaraderie, and nights filled with laughter. Featuring the Eau de Parfum and matching cleansing gel, it is filled with notes of warm cedar, tonka bean, and juniper berries. It clings to the skin in all the right ways, lasting from morning coffee to evening plans. Paired with the matching cleansing hand and body gel, it becomes a daily ritual that feels more like art than routine. Since adding Diptyque to my shelf, I've never gotten so many compliments or felt so confidently pulled together. And Diptyque is just the beginning of a self-discovery journey. The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is packed with beauty exclusives, from jumbo sizes of cult skincare to Oprah's favorite styles, Longchamp totes and more. But hurry because this sale ends August 3rd, and items will sell out before then. This article was written by Emma Sutton-Williams, New York Post Commerce Writer/Reporter and resident fashionista.

I Found The Best Under-$100 Deals at Nordstrom's Anniversary Sale
It's one shopping event after another. While Prime Day may be in our rearview mirrors, it's too soon to put our wallets away. Instead, we're switching gears and diving straight into the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. This year, we've got our eyes glued on the various fragrances, Nordstrom-exclusive beauty sets, and discounted designer deals. And today, the focus is on finding the best under $100 deals. We understand that you might be experiencing a little shopping fatigue. Shopping is, after all, a sport, they say, and this back-to-back marathon on two of the biggest shopping stages is no small feat. We do our best to streamline the experience for you by collecting the best deals into a curated list. This should save you some time and a headache, while getting the most stylish options delivered to your fingertips. With so many shoes, dresses, and home goods at such attractive prices, it was no easy task to find the best of the best under $100 options. Ultimately we landed on the below 15, which include a four piece La Mer beauty set, some snazzy Ray-Ban sunglasses, and a classic Levi's denim jacket. With a removable belt and universally flattering taupe color, this is the versatile blazer that will carry you from summer to fall. This endearing little Longchamp case is only 6.75 inches wide and 4.25 inches tall, making it perfect for carrying around your daily makeup essentials. Four travel-sized La Mer products for under $100 sound too good to be true, but the Nordstrom-exclusive beauty sets make it happen. For those skeptical of trying the cult-favorite skin care brand, consider this the perfect introduction. These jeans have three percent elastane woven in the fabric, making them deliciously soft and stretchy. The wide leg and flared hem keep them comfortable and breezy enough for the summer. Grab these unisex Adidas sneakers as well, now 20 percent off. Inspired by running shoes but designed with a streetwear appeal, they're easy to style and easier to wear all day, thanks to the cushioned insole. These unisex sunnies deserve some of your attention as well, because when was the last time you could get Ray-Ban glasses for under $100? This lip set from YSL does it all: nourishes, plumps, shines, and adds color. You get one full-sized tub of the Loveshine Lip Oil Stick and its matching lip oil gloss. Loved for its buttery soft fabrics and great support, Wacoal has perfected the wireless bra. With this T-shirt bra, you don't have to sacrifice style for comfort, either. You'd never be able to guess that these sleek, polished pants have hidden powermesh panels around the belly, gently molding your midsection. The stretchy fabric and wide leg cut make these extra comfortable too. A Levi's denim trucker jacket is somewhat of a wardrobe must-have. Always on trend and incredibly durable, you'll get a ton of wear out of this item. Turn up the cozy ambiance in your home with this Diptyque candle set. Featuring three of its most popular scents, this under-$100 find will instantly elevate the vibe in your house. Your entire skincare routine can be replaced with this unique four-piece set from Augustinus Bader, which includes a face cream mask, serum, moisturizer, and eye cream. It's no secret that silk scarves have made their return to mainstream fashion, and this chic under-$50 find deserves a spot on your neck, head, or waist too. Another great Nordstrom Sale find: this belted Ralph Lauren shirtdress. The buttoned up look may be just what you need for the office, brunch, or any family gathering. Ever find yourself struggling to spot your suitcase on the conveyor belt? With so many luggage brands looking alike, a stylish luggage tag can make all the difference when it comes to quickly identifying yours.
