For the Wrists and Neck
Fresh Cannabis Eau de Parfum

With notes of patchouli, cannabis accord, chocolate, and vanilla musk, Boston-based Fresh’s Cannabis Santal perfume smells nothing like the basement parties you remember from college. The Cannabis Rose variety, meanwhile, offers a decidedly more floral aroma.

$90 for 100 milliliters, Fresh, Back Bay, fresh.com.
