Every year, certain fragrances rise above the rest.
Some become instant icons, quietly earning permanent places on dressing tables around the world. Others capture a particular moment in time — defining a season, a mood or an entirely new direction in modern perfumery. And then there are the fragrances that continue to surprise us, earning passionate devotion from those fortunate enough to discover them.
The Libertine Fragrance Awards are back for their second year, celebrating the perfumes, home fragrances and fragrance houses that have captivated our community over the past year.
More importantly, the winners won't be chosen by critics or industry panels. They'll be chosen by the people who wear them every day.
Voting is now open, giving fragrance lovers the opportunity to decide which creations deserve to be recognised as this year's favourites. As a thank you for participating, everyone who casts a vote will also go into the draw to win a $1,000 Libertine Digital Gift Card.
The Libertine Fragrance Awards celebrate excellence across a range of categories, from signature scents and home fragrance to bridal perfumes and emerging favourites.
Among this year's categories, four stand out as the heart of the awards.
Some perfumes transcend trends altogether. They become benchmarks against which countless others are measured.
This year's nominees include enduring icons such as Creed Aventus, Amouage Reflection Man, BDK Parfums Gris Charnel, Amouage Guidance, Xerjoff Naxos and Memo Paris African Leather — fragrances that have earned loyal followings through exceptional craftsmanship and timeless appeal.
Home fragrance has become every bit as expressive as personal perfume, transforming spaces into places of comfort, ritual and atmosphere.
This category celebrates the collections that have elevated everyday living, with nominees including Fornasetti Bocche, Christian Tortu Forets, Trudon Altaïr, Trudon Figuier, Santa Maria Novella Melograno and Carrière Frères Chestnut.
These are the perfumes that have defined conversations throughout the year.
From the luminous elegance of Roja Lost in Paris and Creed Wild Vetiver to modern masterpieces such as BDK Parfums Impadia, Matiere Premiere Metal Lavender, Trudon 45° and Amouage Timber, this category celebrates the fragrances that have captured the imagination of the Libertine community.
A signature fragrance is more than a favourite perfume — it becomes part of someone's identity.
This year's nominees represent an extraordinary spectrum of contemporary perfumery, from the velvety sophistication of BDK Parfums Gris Charnel and the radiant floral elegance of Matiere Premiere Radical Rose, to cult favourites including Mancera Instant Crush, Juliette Has a Gun Not a Perfume, Nishane Ani and Fugazzi Orange Crush.
Beyond these headline categories, the Libertine Fragrance Awards also celebrate excellence across the broader world of niche perfumery. From Best Wedding Scent and Best Dressed to Best After Dark Scent, The Great Escape and Most Addictive Scent, these awards recognise the fragrances that define life's most memorable moments and occasions. Together, they showcase the remarkable diversity of modern perfumery — from timeless classics and destination-inspired creations to unforgettable evening fragrances and contemporary cult favourites.
Every vote submitted automatically enters you into the draw to win a $1,000 Libertine Digital Gift Card, giving one lucky fragrance lover the opportunity to explore even more of the world's finest perfume houses.
Whether you're a long-time collector or discovering niche fragrance for the first time, your vote helps recognise the perfumes that have made the greatest impression over the past year.
The Libertine Fragrance Awards are ultimately a celebration of the people who wear, collect and fall in love with fragrance.
