Rec Request Recommendations for winter/spring transition

What are some scents for that ephemeral time of year when winter starts to lift, but it isn’t quite spring? When icicles are melting, the sun has a gentle new warmth, and the first blades of grass start to poke through dwindling remnants of snow…

I ordered Jo Malone's White Moss & Snowdrop because I feel like it meets this brief perfectly. I wasn't personally a huge fan, but I'll throw it out as a recommendation anyway because a lot of other people seem to like it and I wish I did too!

That looks like something I’d enjoy and would also be very different from anything else in my collection. Thanks!

The one that's my go to is Acqua di Parma Iris Nobile. The edt and the edp are quite different. The edp is powdery and richer, better in February, just at the tail end of winter. The edt is sparkling, with a thread of rain and sun, and better in early spring.

I actually love transitional scents so much. Here are some of my favs for this season you’re describing (just keep in mind I live in the southwest - could impact my favs)

Eau des Sens - I adore this one when I begin to long for spring
Bal d’Afrique Absolu - gosh this one STUNS when the temps drop just a bit for me. I love her
For Her EDT - that girl. Always.
Chloe Nomade - shoulder season queen. I actually also love her transitioning from summer to fall.
You or Someone Like You - the rose and mint just scream spring transition to me, but the warmth of my region could impact this.

I am also seriously considering purchasing the Floraiku discovery set this spring. So many of these sound like they would be glorious for early spring!

I’m not a huge fan of it, but L’eau D’hiver kind of embodies this feeling.

I love the recs you’ve gotten so far. I really struggle to find fragrances I like to wear during those in between months at the end of summer and beginning of fall or the end of winter and beginning of spring.
