The Mouth-Watering Citrus Perfumes ELLE Editors Wear for an Instant Mood Boost

D.S. & Durga is known for its unconventional, storytelling-driven takes on perfume, and this scent is no exception. Italian Citrus embodies the old-school glamour of the Mediterranean coast, marrying citrus rinds with deep, resinous woods. An accord of chinotto, an Italian bitter orange soft drink, keeps things interesting.

Notes: Lemon, blood orange, mandarin, chinotto, violet leaf, balsam, musk ambrette

Sizes: 1.7 oz, 3.4 0z

An ELLE editor says: “The second I detect even a hint of spring in the air, I swap my woody, smoky fragrances for something brighter and fresher. I’m not really a sweet-floral person, so citrus is always my go-to. This D.S. & Durga scent has notes of—surprise, surprise—Italian citrus: lemon, bergamot, mandarin, and blood orange. One spritz and I’m mentally at the beach, lying in the sun.” —Kate Spencer, commerce director
