1. The House of Oud Breath Of The Infinite

Experience the captivating scent of The House of Oud Breath of the Infinite Eau de Parfum, a floral scent with a hint of musk. It comes from The Desert Day Collection; a non toxic perfumes range that creates an olfactory narrative of time spent in the desert.

It does so by first capturing the desert’s beauty with aromas that recall the natural, dazzling colours of an Arabian sunrise. The fragrance opens with a bright complex of peony and freesia before melting into a fruity heart of peach. The muskier base reveals rich Irian oud.

The perfume’s name is a tribute to the breathing technique that connects to the inner space present within each of us. Each hand-painted, oval-shaped bottle is crafted in Italy and showcases a stunning design that you’ll want to keep long after the perfume has finished.

Main notes: Peony, peach, oud

Price: Around $190

6. Pigmentarium Paradiso

For each of us, the scent that evokes summer may differ, something that perfume house Pigmentarium celebrates. Working together with artists and artisans, the family-owned business creates a symphony of senses that will spark the most beautiful emotions and memories.

The wearer of this scent will deviate from trends, destined to walk their own path. Whether they’re male or female, all Pigmentarium scents highlight the character of the person wearing it.

7. Eau de Medeau

The debut fragrance by Eau de Medeau is called Origin, and contains only clean, non-toxic ingredients. We think you can truly smell the difference!

It’s just bursting with a light, summertime freshness, thanks to its opening of breezy white and green top notes. These melt into an embrace of beautiful, blousy florals, before drying down to a soft, warm cashmere. The brand is

Main notes: Green, rose, vanilla

Price: Around $100

8. Acorelle Tea Garden

For me, green will always be the colour – and scent – of summer. Growing up in Canada, I remember the scent of cedars and pines near the shores of the lake where we had a cottage, and of course, nothing was lovelier than playing on a lawn of freshly cut grass.

Made with organic alcohol and natural fragrance materials, with zero synthetics, this Acorelle scent is based on aromatherapy concepts; it’s truly a perfume that has been designed to make you feel good.

It harmoniously blends the freshness of citrus fruits like lemon and bergamot with the subtle sweetness of Moroccan mint leaf. A rich powdery floral aspect is supplied by Florentine iris and patchouli, as well as Virginian cedar and Argentinean gaiac wood. So fresh!

Main notes: Cedar, lemon, bergamot, mint

Price: Around $30

9. Organic Pharmacy Organic Glam Jasmine

When I heard about this on Twitter, I became really, really excited. I LOVE jasmine, as it takes me back to when my husband was courting me in Argentina. There was some jasmine in the neighbour’s garden, and he used to nick a few buds for me–it was the most exotic thing I’d ever smelled, and still reminds me of those romantic days (and nights!).

To try to revive those memories, I used to wear a jasmine scent by Estee Lauder, but frankly, the wicked headache it gave me (and others, sometimes) was totally not worth the pleasure of the aroma. Lucky me, then, to find this gorgeous perfume by Organic Pharmacy, which (unlike Estee Lauder’s product) contains no nasty, headache inducing chemicals–in fact, it’s mostly pure organic ingredients and oils. This perfume is a new favourite: it brings all the lush pleasure of ylang ylang and bergamot notes, followed by a light jasmine that lasts and lasts. And just look at that bottle! Well worth the price tag.

Main notes: Pure jasmin

Price: Around $200

10. Mediterranean Fig by Pacifica

Pacifica is one of the best known producers of non toxic perfumes, and this particular scent is one of our favourites!

Though it’s one of the most common fruits in Europe, there’s something highly sophisticated about fig scents, and this one is no exception. Earth meets the Sea in this green, full-bodied blend made with notes of fig, moss, close and cyclamen, all set in a luscious sandalwood base.

Sensuous and complex, it’s a wonderfully imaginative take on a classic fig scent. And we love the fact that this roll-on version pops easily in your purse, so you can top off your perfume as needed.

Main notes: Pure fig, sandalwood

Price: Around $16

11. Sacred Self’s I Love My Spirit

This is one of those non toxic perfumes that’s definitely a rich hippy favourite! The main ingredient is apparently, Love, followed closely by very summery camellia oil, bergamot, and rather uniquely, cardamom, which gives this slightly sweet perfume a spicy tang.

Ylang ylang and juniper are also present, as are tiny quartz chips, gem and flower essences, colour rays, sacred symbols, mantras and sound, all designed with aromatherapeutic healing properties in mind. This time, to help you heal the body, and feel comfortable in the skin you’re in all summer.

Main notes: Bergamot, cardamom, camellia

Price: Around $30

  1. Hello!

    I have a question. When you say the product is alcohol free, you mean that the percentage is 0.000% alcohol. So no alcohol added at all or having a small percentages 0.01%-0.05%?
