Rakes SENSE is the UK’s only contemporary luxury perfume magazine featuring 272-pages of beautiful photography and fragrance inspiration.

In this issue, we discover the scent of architecture, meet a remarkable actor, singer and activist as she traces her life in scent from Iran to exile in London, relive the moment an entrepreneur found the inspiration for his future fragrance in a turbulent sea and encounter some of the emerging voices reshaping the perfume industry in 2026. We also chart the rise of the teenage perfume buyer, look at how Tik Tok is reshaping a whole sector of the fragrance world and reveal the fragrances we love – and why. Plus, we wander in a scented garden, chart the rise of Amouage as a perfume player, and interview the perfumers who work at the edges of convention, pushing the boundaries of the science – and art – of scent.
