Bella Hadid's Perfume Brand, ‘Ôrebella, Made Me A Magnet For Compliments
All linked products are independently selected by our editors. If you purchase any of these products, we may earn a commission. As a self-proclaimed fragrance obsessive, it's rare for a new perfume brand to grab (and hold) my attention — and even rarer when it's fronted by a celebrity. That's not to say there aren't gems: Kylie Jenner's Cosmic 2.0 and Eilish by Billie Eilish have both been mistaken for far more expensive designer scents on me. Most of the time, though, they all smell… kind of identical. But 'Ôrebella, dreamt up by the one and only Bella Hadid, is built differently. Sure, there are the usual wearable notes (vanilla, jasmine and rose), but alongside them are spicy cardamom, savoury sea salt accord and briny olive — elements I can't say appear in any of the perfumes in my current collection. If that's not unique enough, you can wear them — I mean really wear them — like skincare. Each of the four eau de parfums is designed to be shaken to activate, since they're formulated without alcohol. Alongside the essential oils that give each fragrance its potency, they're filled to the brim with moisturising oils like shea, almond and jojoba. It definitely takes the skin scent trend to a whole new level. Of course, you can spritz them onto your clothes, too, but be mindful that the high oil content might leave behind marks on certain fabrics. While the brand has been racking up sales at Ulta in the US for almost a year now, it has just joined Selfridges' fragrance portfolio in the UK — and the buzz is undeniable. Beyond the milky elixir, the geode-inspired bottle (which doesn't stand upright on its own; you'll need a separate stand, at an additional cost, if you want to display it) is garnering a lot of attention. But what about the juice inside? I tried every single perfume in 'Ôrebella's collection and here's what I want everyone to know. 'Ôrebella Nightcap Eau de Parfum, £67 This is a warm mug of milky masala chai, bottled, and hands down my favourite of all of Ôrebella's fragrances. Something about the soothing vanilla, spicy cardamom and creamy guaiacwood makes it perfectly nuzzly and cosy — so much so, I love wearing it to bed. I'm convinced it sends me off to sleep faster. I wore it to a concert recently, where it's impossible not to get up close and personal with the other guests, and received a handful of compliments; one even wrote the name down in her phone immediately, it's that good. It makes sense. Nightcap was created by perfumer Clément Gavarry, the visionary who gave us Phlur, Kayali and Chloé's most viral fragrances. 'Ôrebella Salted Muse Eau de Parfum, £67 Legendary French perfumer Jérôme Epinette, the nose behind multiple Noyz, Byredo and Victoria Beckham fragrances, is the architect of Salted Muse. Described as a 'woody marine' scent, it blends sea salt accord with fig, sandalwood and amber. At first spritz, it's invigoratingly fresh, not unlike CK One, with a nostalgic '90s feel. It doesn't lose that freshness as it dries down; instead, the green notes (fig, lavender and olive tree accord) come to the fore. It's reminiscent of warm air drifting through a garden at golden hour, when everything smells a little more alive. What I love is the comforting warmth it leaves on the skin hours later — that'll be the all-encompassing amber. My partner and I fight over this fragrance — it's genderless. This one lasts longer than any other in 'Ôrebella's lineup. This is freshly showered skin, sun-dried laundry and cool cotton sheets — though you wouldn't guess it from the long list of lush notes. Think vanilla-esque tonka bean, rich damask rose and intoxicating jasmine. That's all balanced by a sprig of fresh mint and a squeeze of lemon, which cut through the richness and give it a clean, energising lift. I love spritzing this on my neck and décolletage post-shower — it sets me up for the day. Better still, the moisturising oils in the formula more or less double as a body serum. Genius. 'Ôrebella Blooming Fire Eau de Parfum, £67 I'm calling it: Blooming Fire will be summer's most viral scent. It captures that unmistakable feeling of spending all day at the beach, then heading back to the hotel, freshly showered, sitting on the balcony, waiting for your hair to dry while dipping into your snack haul. Sweet jasmine and Tahitian monoi — essentially gardenia petals soaked in coconut oil — give it a warm, sunscreen quality, while zingy bergamot adds freshness and peppery clove evokes sun-drenched skin. As tempting as it is to bathe in this, I'm saving it for my upcoming holidays. Again, perfumer Clément Gavarry masterminded this one, and he has a special talent for creating the perfect skin scent. Phlur's Vanilla Skin and Peach Skin are just a few of his creations, but if you ask me, Blooming Fire trumps them.

10 perfumes that won't trigger your fragrance allergies
A perfume containing the ingredients above isn't necessarily a red flag—a lot of people can still wear them safely without experiencing adverse reactions. However, allergies are tricky, and if you're predisposed to them, it's better to play it safe with perfumes that have fewer potential irritants. Another thing to note: organic or natural scents don't necessarily guarantee an allergy-free experience. Noses are unpredictable and unique, so follow yours. 1. Henry Rose (All scents) Founded by Michelle Pfeiffer, Henry Rose is one of the first fragrance brands to be both EWG (Environmental Working Group) Verified and Cradle to Cradle certified. Every ingredient is disclosed and vetted for safety. Scents like Windows Down and Last Light offer fresh, subtle blends suitable for daily wear. 2. DedCool – Fragrance 01 Taunt DedCool combines bold branding with gentle formulas. Fragrance 01 Taunt is a clean blend of vanilla, amber and bergamot, created without parabens or phthalates. The brand uses biodegradable ingredients and water-free formulations. 3. Phlur – Missing Person, Somebody Wood Phlur's scents are IFRA-compliant and formulated without known allergens, parabens or synthetic dyes. Missing Person is a soft, skin-like fragrance, while Somebody Wood adds warm, woody depth without overwhelming the senses. 4. Ellis Brooklyn – Myth, Salt, Après Created by a former beauty editor, Ellis Brooklyn perfumes are clean, vegan and dermatologist tested. Myth is a crisp white musk, Salt captures a mineral seaside feel and Après evokes a wintry forest with smooth, woody notes. 5. Lavanila – The Healthy Fragrance Collection Lavanila uses botanical bases and essential oils, avoiding synthetic dyes and petrochemicals. While essential oils can still cause reactions, this range is often better tolerated. Pure Vanilla and Vanilla Coconut are gentle and comforting.

SpaceNK's 'best of both worlds' perfume set which includes eight bottles for £39
High-end perfume brand, Phlur usually come with a £99 price tag, making them a bit of a splurge—one that's hard to justify without being sure it's the right scent for you. While the brand has earned a loyal fanbase, savvy SpaceNK shoppers have found a way to try out a wide range of Phlur's scents that work out just under £5 a bottle. Enter the 2024 Discovery Kit, priced at £39. It features eight of Phlur's most popular fragrances. While the bottles are smaller, this is a fantastic way to see how these perfumes mix with your individual skin types successfully. In fact, 52 kits have already been snapped up by happy customers this week alone. Sampling sets are becoming a go-to for fragrance lovers who want to test scents before making a full-size purchase. After all, if a fragrance is something you'll only wear on special occasions or in the evening, a smaller bottle is often the perfect solution. While other sets like Penhaligon's £50 Ladies Fragrance Collection and Maison Margiela's £65 Replica Discovery Eau de Toilette Set are popular, Phlur's kit offers a wider selection of scents on SpaceNK. For money-saving tips, sign up to our Money newsletter here Reactions to the Phlur kit have been overwhelmingly positive; one customer said "This kit is fantastic, the samples may seem small but the scents are so potent - this is absolutely worth the cost if you are looking to find your next favourite!", reports the Mirror. "There is a great diversity, from feminine to masculine, woody to spicy, there is going to be something for everyone in this scent. My favourite is 'Somebody Wood' which, at first, I didn't rate at all as I thought it was a bit too masculine, however, throughout the day I found myself loving the faded musk that this left. "I also received so many compliments, which was genuinely pleasantly surprising when compared to my first impression. If you want to treat yourself but don't want to commit to one particular scent just yet, try this." A second shopper enthused: "I love, and I mean love, a discovery kit. It gives you the chance to sample a whole bunch of scents before committing to a full bottle. The trouble is that when the brand comes out with several bangers. I've since bought full bottles of both Father Figure and Missing Person, and there are a couple more from the set. Well worth the purchase." However, a third customer pointed out the cost versus quantity issue, remarking: "Very small sample sizes for the price, but worth it if you don't live near somewhere that you could smell them in an actual store." Another added their strategy for online fragrance shopping: "I find it difficult judging fragrances by reading the notes when shopping online so I will always look to buy smaller versions first. This is the best of both worlds, small way to try a number of fragrances before you commit to a full size." The set includes:

The brand has built up a cult following, but SpaceNK shoppers have found a way to try a huge range of their perfumes for less than £5 a bottle. The 2024 Discovery Kit is £39 and contains eight scents from the brand, while they are small bottles it's a great way to discover if the perfume blends well with personal skin chemistry and so far this week 52 sets have sold to happy shoppers. Discovery sets are an increasingly popular way to sample perfumes, especially for those who want to see how often they'll actually reach for a scent before taking the plunge - after all it might be better to buy a smaller bottle if it's more of an evening only scent to tuck away in handbags.
