The Compliment Getters
The scents that get noticed. These are the perfumes and colognes that have people leaning in and asking, “What are you wearing?”
This is the kind of vanilla that feels dressed up. It’s warm, rich and sexy. I’d reach for this for date night, dinner, drinks or anytime I want my fragrance to make an entrance and get compliments.
LIBRE Vanille Couture Eau de Parfum with Vanilla and Orange Blossom - Yves Saint Laurent
It’s warm, airy, slightly sweet and has a way of lingering without feeling heavy. There’s a reason Baccarat Rouge 540 became that fragrance. This is one of those scents that leaves a trail and makes people want to know what you’re wearing. Definitely...

Beast Mode Scents
For the days when subtle isn’t the goal. These are the powerful, long-lasting fragrances with serious projection that make their presence known.

Tobacco Vanille Eau de Parfum Fragrance
This is my little fragrance layering secret. I spray a little Molecule 02 first, then layer another fragrance over it, and I notice my scent lasts for hours and projects so much better. It’s one of my favorite ways to get more out of my fragrances, a...

My go-to places for finding great fragrance. From new releases and cult favorites to luxury perfumes, colognes and niche scents, these are the spots I like to browse when I’m looking for my new favorite scent.
FragranceNet is one of my favorite places to check when I want to find a fragrance for less. I love browsing for designer perfumes and colognes, older favorites and scents I’ve been curious about without always paying full retail price.
