As the temperature drops in Lahore, Islamabad and Peshawar, your perfume needs to change too. Light citrus scents that feel perfect in June simply disappear in cold, dry air. Winter is the season for warm, rich and long-lasting perfumes – vanilla, caramel, oud, amber, leather and spice.
And 2026 is the year of the gourmand. Sweet, cosy, “edible” fragrances, along with saffron and smooth oud, are among the biggest fragrance trends of the year. Here are our 7 best winter perfumes in Pakistan for 2026.
Why Your Perfume Changes in Winter
- Cold air slows evaporation, so lighter scents feel weak. Heavier base notes like vanilla, oud and amber perform better.
- Dry skin holds fragrance poorly. Moisturised skin can make your perfume last noticeably longer.
- Layers of clothing trap scent, so stronger projection helps your fragrance get noticed.
1. Olore Samar – The Ultimate Cosy Gourmand (Unisex)
Samar is our signature winter scent. It opens with juicy peach, strawberry and raspberry, melts into a creamy heart of vanilla and caramel, and settles into tonka bean, sandalwood and musk.
Longevity: 8–10 hours | Best for: romantic nights, cold evenings, indoor gatherings
2. Olore Wajdan – White Oud & Rose (Unisex)
Wajdan blends soft spice and rose with a smooth white oud on a warm amber and musk base. It is the perfect oud for people who find traditional oud too heavy.
Longevity: 10–12 hours | Best for: office, Jummah, family events
3. Olore Rebel – Oud, Passion Fruit & Leather (Unisex)
Rebel, inspired by Maison Crivelli Oud Maracujá, is luxury in a bottle: passion fruit, saffron and Turkish rose over an agarwood oud heart, finishing with leather, amber and vanilla.

4. Olore Four – Woody Amber Skin Scent (Unisex)
Four, inspired by Thomas Kosmala No. 4, captures the magnetic warmth of skin-on-skin. Bitter orange blossom and lemon zest open into aromatic spices, musk, amber and woods.
Longevity: 8–10 hours | Best for: date nights, close-up compliments
5. Olore Elite – Oud & Amber for Men
Elite is bold and sophisticated: sharp citrus and pepper, a warm amber heart, and a deep base of oud, musk and vetiver. A winter office favourite.
Best for: office meetings, business events, formal wear
6. Olore Inferno – Warm Vanilla for Men
Inferno opens with fresh apple and citrus, moves into rose and patchouli, and dries down to warm vanilla and musk. Strong, fiery and made for winter nights out.

7. Olore Scarlet – Fruity Floral for Women
Scarlet brings juicy red apple and citrus together with rose and jasmine on a musk and cedarwood base – radiant, sweet and perfect for winter parties.

5 Tips to Make Perfume Last Longer in Winter
- Moisturise first. An unscented lotion gives perfume something to hold on to.
- Spray on pulse points – neck, wrists, behind the ears and inside the elbows.
- Scent your scarf or shawl lightly (test on an inner corner first). Wool and pashmina hold fragrance for days.
- Layer two scents – for example Samar over Wajdan for a sweet oud. Scent layering is one of the biggest trends of 2026.
- Do not overspray. Winter scents are rich; 2–3 sprays are enough indoors.
