Exquisite scents to make your special day unforgettable

<< View more beauty news

A wedding fragrance is like having an olfactory snapshot of your special day – in fact, scent has the strongest link to memory, so few things will recall your wedding more effectively. With this in mind, it's a good idea to choose a scent that's entirely new and different from what you would normally wear. And when it comes to a fragrance that's different, featuring high-quality ingredients and serious staying power, Miller Harris offer a number of exquisite scents complete with the wow factor.

selection of Miller Harris fragrances for brides Bridal scents are usually from the white floral fragrance family, perfect to team with the wedding bouquet and a white lace dress (or snappy suit!) and Miller Harris has several gorgeous and charismatic contenders to choose from.

Secret Gardenia – £115
This is the perfect scent if you’re after something long-lasting yet classic and unobtrusive to go with a trailing white gown. It opens with crisp, zesty notes of Japanese yuzu and pear – the perfect refreshing pick-me-up after you’ve spent the day thanking guests, managing your mother-in-law’s expectations and posing for countless photos. While the rich floral heart of jasmine and ylang ylang brings the glamour, ensuring you’re every bit the star of the show.

Head: Bergamot , Yuzu, Aqual and Nashi Pear.
Heart: Gardenia, Ylang-Ylang and Violet Petal.
Lasting impressions: Driftwood, Creamy Sandalwood, Cedarwood and Musk.

Rose Silence – £115
Rose Silence puts a modern twist on this beloved bloom, with sharp, tart notes of mandarin and blackcurrant, backed by a mellow chorus of sandalwood and musk which warm up beautifully on the skin. It’s the perfect scent for any modern bride – especially those who are more ‘knee-length dress and red lipstick’ than ‘ballerina bun and ball gown’.

Head Notes: Mandarin, Blackcurrant
Heart Notes: Rose Absolute
Lasting Impressions: Patchouli, Cashmere Musk

Lumière Dorée – £115
If you’re having a spring or summer wedding, this scent will mimic the (hopefully!) cheerful weather you’ll be having, with bright, energising notes of neroli and bergamot, before revealing a rich white floral heart of jasmine and honeyed orange flower. Rather than setting with the sun, this scent stays on that dance floor well into the evening – drying down to an enveloping base of soft amber and musk.

Head Notes: Bergamot, Petit Grain, Orange
Heart Notes: Neroli, Sambac, Jasmine Absolute
Lasting Impressions: Cashmere Wood, Vetiver, Crisp Amber, White Musks

Peau Santal – £115
If wedding night lingerie interests you more than the dress (who doesn’t love a beautiful trousseau), then this is probably the scent for you. Echoing the scent of warm skin, it’s geared around creamy rich sandalwood, blended with cashmere woods, amber and moss – underscored with creamy vanilla. It mingles with the skin so beautifully, it’s the scent equivalent of an ivory silk camisole or lace and pearl bralette.

Head Notes: Bergamot, Pink Pepper, Saffron
Heart Notes: Olibanum, Violet Leaf, Papyrus
Lasting Impressions: Sandalwood, Cashmere Woods, Crisp Amber, Vanilla, Moss
