Autumn is the season of layering, warmer fabrics and stylish coats. The right autumn coat is not just protection against wind and rain but also an expression of personality. And when you add a pleasant fragrance it gains even more charm.
In this article, we’ll look at how to choose the perfect autumn coat, which trends dominate fall 2025, which coats can go into the washing machine, which require dry cleaning only, how to care for them, and how to store them properly after the season. We’ll also include fragrant tips with Puella laundry perfumes that will give your coat an exceptional touch.
1. Types of coats and the occasions they suit
- Wool Coat (a timeless classic)
Perfect for the city, work, and social events. Pairs well with elegant outfits, dresses, trouser suits, and jeans.
➡ Care: most often the only option is dry cleaning.
- Trench Coat (light and versatile)
Great for changeable weather. The belt underlines the waist and flatters the silhouette. Suitable for daily wear, work or a walk.
➡ Care: can be washed at home, but check the label.
- Oversized Coat (modern and comfortable)
A trend that has lasted for several seasons. Offers room for layering and looks stylish. Works well with casual and sporty-elegant styles.
➡ Care: depends on the material. Coats are often a wool-polyester blend, so check the label.
- Down Coat (practical and warm)
Better for late autumn and comfort lovers. Suitable for everyday wear, walks, and trips.
➡ Care: some can be washed at home, but tumble drying requires using dryer balls.
- Leather Coat (chic and rebellious)
This season’s must-have. Pairs with any outfit and exudes charisma. Black, dark green, and burgundy dominate the 2025 season.
➡ Care: wipe with a damp cloth, do not wash, and use leather care products.

3. How to Wash Autumn Coats – What to Do and What Definitely Not to Do?
Not every autumn coat is suitable for home washing. Here are the basic rules:
🧼 Can be washed in the machine:
- Coats made of polyester, cotton or blends labeled “machine washable,”
- trench coats, sports coats and some down pieces.
Use a gentle cycle and a high-quality laundry gel – for example, Puella laundry gels, which clean gently, protect fabrics, and leave a fresh scent. They are also specially designed for both white and black clothing.
💨 Practical tip:
After washing, dry the coat flat or hanging, but out of direct sunlight. If it has filling, add tennis balls to the dryer to keep it fluffy.
🚫 Should be dry cleaned:
- wool coats
- coats with non-removable linings
- leather coats
- anything labeled “dry clean only”

5. How to Store Coats After the Season?
After winter and autumn, coats deserve proper care. Here’s how to store them correctly:
✅ Clean them – take them to the dry cleaner or wash according to the fabric type and care symbols.
✅ Don’t forget the fragrance – add scented cards or spray the inside of the wardrobe with Puella home perfume.
✅ Wrap them in breathable covers – ideally cotton or non-woven fabric.
✅ Store on hangers – no folding to prevent deformation.
✅ Add a moth repellent – lavender or cedar is a great natural solution against moths.
6. How to Prepare Coats for the New Season?
🧽 Air them out for a few days before the first wear.
💨 Lightly steam or iron them through a cloth.
🧴 If you skipped it at the end of the season, wash the coats.
👕 Remove lint and go over the seams – the coat will look cleaner and neater.
🎯 Add fragrance to your wardrobe – for example, Puella scented cards that last for weeks.
A coat that smells and keeps you warm is a coat you’ll fall in love with.
An autumn coat is a wardrobe essential. It should keep you warm, highlight your style, and bring a good feeling every time you put it on. When it also smells wonderful, it becomes a favorite piece not just for you but for those around you.
That’s why proper care is essential – choosing the right material, washing correctly, adding fragrances that define you, and storing it practically. With Puella laundry perfumes, even an ordinary coat can feel extraordinary.
