floral fragrances 🌷
My favorite fragrances that have prominent use of floral notes derived from flowers like roses, jasmine, lilies, etc. I like to wear these when I’m feeling super girly and pretty -like a flower!
Delicate and elegant, and will always have people asking you what you have on. Truly timeless and I only use it for special occasions. Key notes include Sicilian Mandarin, Pink Peony, Damask Rose, Apricot, Peach, and White Musk.
Miss Dior Blooming Bouquet: Fresh and Tender Eau de Toilette
After smelling almost all of Sephora’s perfume inventory, I settled on buying this travel size for my purse and believe it is the perfect everyday floral. It features prominent notes of tuberose, jasmine, and Rangoon creeper.
GUCCI Bloom Perfume
Another sample of mine that I was shocked to love is this warm and spicy fragrance with key notes of coffee, vanilla, and white flowers. It can be considered both a gourmand and a floral, which is most likely why I like it so much.
Black Opium Eau de Parfum - Women's Perfume
I have this fragrance as a sample and can definitely see myself getting a travel or full size. key notes include citrus, rose, jasmine, white chypre, and vanilla. The scent is described as fresh, clean, and floral, which makes it a win for me.
Idôle Eau de Parfum - Floral & Fresh Fragrance - Lancôme
gourmand fragrances 🍨
Some of my favorite gourmands often feature notes like vanilla, caramel, pistachio, marshmallow, etc. I wear these when I’m going out to dinner or want something with more depth. They will have you smelling like dessert!
This is the first fragrance that I bought on my own just a few days before my 25th birthday that made me feel like “yup, I’m grown and I’m that girl”. The fresh baked red velvet, juicy pear nectar, and a pop of tart raspberry notes are warm and sweet...
I AM HER Fragrance Eau de parfum
While this perfume has layers of vanilla balanced with caramel, pistachio, ginger, and sandalwood, I do get a very subtle floral note from it reminding me of my two favorite florals (Miss Dior and Gucci Bloom). I realized there are a few ingredients ...
Rare Eau de Parfum | Warm Scented Perfume
I would’ve listed these separately, but I truly feel like they’re best layered together. For me, the pistachio is too strong on it’s own & the blend of both is the perfect gourmand scent for when you want to smell all things yummy and delicious.
KAYALI Mini YUM Perfume Duo Set
This blend of pistachio, nutty, and almond top notes, with a heart of marshmallow, sugar, and rhum, and a base of vanilla, brown sugar, and cream is one of my favorites to wear and layer. It’s similar to wearing the Kayali Yum duo, but more of an eve...

Berries & Cream 50 ml Perfume Oil Dropper
Another sample of mine that I was shocked to love is this warm and spicy fragrance with key notes of coffee, vanilla, and white flowers. It can be considered both a gourmand and a floral, which is most likely why I like it so much.
Black Opium Eau de Parfum - Women's Perfume
The perfect layering perfume oil to add green notes, jasmine, sugar, vanilla, patchouli and amber to nearly any other fragrance you pair it with. Gives floral and gourmand perfumes an extra depth of sweet vanilla.
Vanilla & Amber 50ml Perfume Oil Dropper
fruity fragrances 🍊
While newer to fruity scents, I appreciate that they include citrus scents like lemon and orange, or berries like strawberries, and love when they’re couples with florals or vanilla notes. I prefer these during the summer or when I want to smell fres...
I was super surprised by this fragrance, especially with it’s notes of rangpur mandarin, pink pineapple, amber and orange flower not being something I would go for. I feel this is perfect for summer and in the best way, reminds me of walking into a h...
