How to Choose a Luxury Fragrance by Mood
There is a quiet shift happening in how we choose fragrance.
We are moving away from shopping by category, by note pyramid, by what we think we should want and instead returning to something far more instinctive.
How do I want to feel?
At LUMIRA, we have always believed that fragrance is not about ingredients alone. It’s about atmosphere. Memory. A moment in time. A place you return to - or long for - again and again.
This is the idea behind Shop by Mood.
Not a menu of products, but a series of portals. Each one capturing a feeling: radiant afternoons, quiet mornings, soft bloom, midnight depth. Each one offering a different way of arriving.
You don’t choose a scent because it contains neroli or cedarwood. You choose it because it feels like freedom. Or calm. Or confidence. Or intimacy. Because it matches the season you’re in - internally or externally.
Every mood is a destination. And fragrance is how you travel there.
Scents, Designed to Travel
As the year begins, many of us are moving - between holidays, weekends away, work returning, celebrations arriving, routines reshaping.
And fragrance becomes part of how we prepare, how we pack, how we arrive.
A familiar ritual that grounds you.
A considered detail that adapts to different settings.
Something personal enough to feel intimate, yet versatile enough to follow you from place to place.
This is why we design our scents and formats to move with you.
Not just in your suitcase, but in your life.
Perfume Oils, compact and spill-free, slip easily into a bag or pocket. Designed for touch-ups, layering, and quiet moments in transit.
Discovery Sets become miniature journey, multiple destinations held in one small box. Perfect for time away, or for exploring different moods without committing to just one.
Our fragrances themselves are intentionally versatile: fresh, floral, skin-warmed and softly expressive, so they feel appropriate across settings - from mornings to evenings, from home to travel, from everyday ritual to gifting.
Scent becomes something you don’t just wear, but something you carry.
A way of bringing familiarity into new places, and a sense of newness into familiar ones.
