Since relocating to New York last summer, I had eagerly awaited the moment when I could see the city's renowned cherry blossom trees in full bloom... and it has finally come to pass. For approximately a month and a half each spring, fortunate New Yorkers (and visitors who experience this enchanting season) can marvel at these stunning trees showering the streets with delicate, powdery pink petals. The arrival of spring rains ushers in another delightful experience: watching these petals flutter down from their branches and drift through the streets, creating streams and puddles of blossoms. To commemorate the arrival of these blooms in a manner befitting a fragrance enthusiast like myself, I've taken it upon myself to identify the must-have scents for every cherry blossom aficionado to include in a well-rounded collection. This way, you can carry the enchanting spirit of cherry blossom season well beyond the months of April and May.
