I've been a fan of clean beauty brand Fresh for quite some time. Its formulas are truly some of the best, and they always leave my skin looking and feeling brighter and highly nourished. The brand's Rose & Hyaluronic Acid Toner ($45) never fails to enrich my complexion with hydration and the sweet, faint scent of rose. Naturally, my undying love for this rose-scented gem led me to scope out the brand's collection of richly aromatic fragrances next. And boy, I was not disappointed.
Each is crafted to be light, uplifting, and true to the brand's refreshing ethos. There are some earthier scents, some floral, and some fruity—there's truly something for everyone. To get the lowdown on the best mood-lifting fragrances Fresh has to offer, I went straight to the source. I tapped the brand for a few details on its best sellers with a bit of backstory from the brand's co-founder Lev Glazman. Read on below for which ones to add to your collection.
1. Hesperides Grapefruit Eau de Parfum
Key notes: Mandarin, Italian lemon, grapefruit, bergamot, lotus flower, transparent jasmine, rhubarb, musk, peach
"This best-selling fragrance features notes of energizing citrus and clean florals to awaken your mind and refresh your senses. A medley of intoxicating citruses is paired with notes of bergamot, lotus flower, and rhubarb.
"I'm a great lover of citruses and always playing with the many variations that exist. With this scent, I wanted to pair pink grapefruit with a medley of other citruses—lemon, bergamot, tangerines, oranges—that has depth but still maintains the classic, clean essence of a citrus that is so completely addictive." — Lev Glazman, co-founder of Fresh

"A fruity fragrance with a juicy sweetness inspired by the exotic and luscious lychee fruit, the Sugar Lychee Eau de Parfum features additional notes of lotus flower, sandalwood, grapefruit and amber.
"I wanted to reinterpret the essence of sugar—its addictive flavor, crystallized purity, the comfort it provides—and give it an exotic twist. With a texture like no other, the heart of the unique lychee fruit is both luscious and translucent. It gives the Sugar scent a juicy sweetness without overpowering it." — Glazman
