Burberry Goddess Eau de Parfum with Vanilla & Lavender

It might seem excessive to have all three Delina variations on this list, but they all offer something different! Exclusif is a deeper, creamier rose that's elegant and perfect for evening or autumn and winter weddings.

Valaya is NOT a safe blind buy, so please try to sniff it in a store before committing! It's a wonderfully unique scent that's at once fresh and musky, and beyond elegant.

Valaya Exclusif has an added almond note that really mellows out some of the original's sharpness. It's decadent and will carry you through the whole wedding, well into the reception.

Eau Duelle Eau de Parfum - Diptyque

Aside from having one of my all time favorite bottles, this is a deeper, rich scent that really does give you the feeling of “silk.” While chestnut seems like an odd note, the rose and blackcurrant in this keep it sweet while the cacao gives it a lot...

Penhaligon's really did something with Luna--it is one part floral, one part citrus, and yet it has this fir balsam note that shouldn't work at all and yet only adds to the cool evening feel.

EX NIHILO Fleur Narcotique Eau de Parfum

Don't be scared off by the floral notes in this--I would describe this as a sweet, musky scent that's addictive without being cloying. It's a lovely skin scent for anyone sensitive to stronger perfumes.

Much like MFK's a la Rose, this is a soft, citrus-y, powdery rose that has great staying power. I also love the bottle for wedding photo shots!

The La Rosee flanker of Delina is a sheerer, more aquatic rose with the added boost of peony. One of my favorite scents of all time, and it projects amazingly well.

The red berries in Meliora make this a wonderfully sweet, fruity perfume with just enough florals in it to project and feel sophisticated.
