Brace yourself for some mid-morning science. Thanks to the location of the olfactory cortex within the limbic system of the brain, smells and emotions are easily entangled, meaning the right fragrance can take you away to a place far removed from everyday life. Take Miller Harris’ new eau de parfum La Fumée Arabie. Close your eyes and the notes of iincense, cardamom, coriander seed, cumin and Cedar wood make you feel as if you’re weaving through the smoky side alleys of a Moroccan spice bazaar. A heady, rich fragrance perfect for the evening, or if you’re in need of a bit of Middle Eastern escapism on your morning commute.
£110 for 50ml. Available at millerharris.com
