The Province

By The Fireplace replica fragrance

- ALEESHA HARRIS

What it is: A unisex fragrance that combines woody and smoky accords with the sweet notes of grilled chestnuts to evoke the memory of a warm fireplace in the wintertime.

The scent, which was the first dual feminine and masculine fragrance for the brand, also features notes of pink pepper, orange flower petals, clove oil, Gaïac wood oil, cade oil, vanilla accord, peru balsam and cashmeran.

“The frosted top note contrasts with the warmer heart for a soft, enveloping and addictive experience,” according to brand materials supporting the scent.

What we say: This fragrance is utterly intoxicati­ng. While the promise of a fireside scent may have some people expecting more overpoweri­ng wood smoke than enticing embers, rest assured this fragrance delivers a warm appeal that’s just the right amount of smoky.

Our tester fell for this fragrance at first spritz. The elixir is warm and somewhat spicy at first and settles into an interestin­g mix of soft, sweet and sooty notes. It’s a memorable scent experience, to be sure.

For an eau de toilette, it boasts impressive staying power, lingering on skin and chunky winter knits well into the evening.

If you’re looking for a winter-worthy fragrance that’s good enough to eat, look no further than By The Fireplace. Where to get it: Sephora

What it will cost you: $150
