Elemis eau de parfum, €49 for 28ml

The first fragrance from the well-known spa brand, this will remind you of the seaside thanks to its middle notes of Marine Accord. Refreshing and zesty, this is a clean, pure scent that won't leave you feeling overpowered. From Elemis spas and Harvey Nichols

Balenciaga Paris, €71.70 for 50ml

The first whiff of this new scent from the grandest of fashion houses smells like an April day, while a bouquet of violets gives an antique feel. Refined, elegant and a lot more affordable than the label's clothes, it'll also look great on your dressing table. From Brown Thomas.

Chloé Capucine, €96 for 100ml

One of three new Eau de Fleurs fragrances from this covetable label, Capucine smells fresh and green, like spicy grass. The key notes include bergamot, lemon and sage with a rose absolute edge. Just the thing for the youthful Chloé customer. From Brown Thomas.

Burberry Sport, €49.95 for 50ml

A young, modern scent, this is a pleasing fresh floral with notes of mandarin, sea salt, honeysuckle, musk and cedar – precisely what you'd expect a sporty type to wear. There's also an accompanying men's scent which is a bit more energising. From Arnotts.

Paul Smith Sunshine Edition, €43 for 100ml

This is a lovely a juicy scent with lime and pink grapefruit accords as well as Bulgarian rose and sandalwood. Slightly exotic, very feminine but most of all, refreshing. From Debenhams
