Purple Star emoji 17 items
These are the most iconic, best-selling fragrances that you need to try ASAP. If a new perfume launches, I absolutely have to smell it. I'm fragrance obsessed, okay? I don't care if it's a trendy vanilla perfume or a classic floral-scented fragrance;...

I always knew that a sophisticated heiress laid dormant within me, but Atomic Rose's deep bergamot and vanilla formula—which strikes the perfect balance between a feminine and masculine scent—pulled that identity to the forefront.

When I want to cosplay as someone who has their life together, I douse myself in this extremely chic Dior perfume. It's loaded with florals, but it still has a creamy quality that takes away any of the heady powdery-ness (the perfumer, Francis Kurkdj...

Dare I say, it's the lightest, freshest, most pleasant perfume in my collection. Truly, no one smells this and finds it too heavy or intense; it even has an ice note, which just makes this perfume smell like it's been chilled to me. But the magic is ...

This creamy fragrance is unmistakably vanilla but also has a touch of sandalwood in the base for a smooth, warm scent," I wrote (lol, it me) when I first reviewed it back then. And the sentiment still stands, as this is one of my favorite vanilla per...

I get it: Celebrity perfumes are usually a snooze. But Victoria Beckham's line is comparable to all of the $$$ luxury perfumes on this list. I've been obsessed with Portofino ’97 since it came out, and it's truly the best beachy, summertime perfume. ...

Hate florals? Hate musk? Hate anything other than the sweet, cozy scent of vanilla? Hi, same. As someone whose signature body lotion scent has been vanilla anything since middle school, I absolutely love this ~grown-up~ version from Kayali.

You've probably seen this (very) expensive perfume on TikTok, as people are legit obsessed with sweet, jasmine perfume (ahem, we're talking millions of views). Prior to an onslaught of Baccarat Rouge 540 dupes, it smelled like nothing else on the mar...

If you like a strong woody and musky fragrance then this is the one for you. There are many different elements to this fragrance but you can definitely smell the fig notes as well as the jasmine upon first smell. This is definitely a warmer fragrance...

I've done the extremely grueling work of testing and reviewing every single Byredo perfume—and Rouge Chaotique quickly rose to my favorites. It's a dreamy night-out scent, with patchouli for a spicy kick, as well as rich plum and sweet praline. it's ...

When I want something that smells *sexy* but not overly strong (especially during the day), I dab on Phlur Missing Person. I’m not typically a fan of musky scents, but there’s something about this one that’s so subtle and interesting. It settles nice...

If you wanna smell like pure sunshine and light, pls pick up this citrus perfume from Liis. It's bright and fruity done in a sophisticated, smooth way. To me, it's like biting into the first grapefruit on a tropical island getaway, when your skin is ...

Love, Don't Be Shy by Kilian (famously worn by Rihanna before she created her own perfume, Fenty by Fenty Beauty) combines sugar, vanilla, and caramel in a way that smells like decadent, creamy marshmallows to me. But it's also layered with orange bl...

If the idea of smelling like a literal cupcake sounds good to you, try Goddess. But it's not just any cupcake—this is a spensy, French-bakery cupcake worthy of a line out the door. This vanilla perfume is loaded with a variety of vanilla notes (like ...

When I heard Zayn Malik was a big fan of Noyz, I immediately tested every single of their scents. Ever since, I've worn Sh**ty Day at least once a week (high praise for a girl with 150+ perfumes to choose from). It's unlike any perfume in my collecti...

Smelling salty might not sound as appealing as, say, having the aroma of vanilla or cherry. But when it's in this perfume from Ellis Brooklyn, it lends the vibe of sipping a crisp glass of wine seaside on a windy day. The perfume is grounded by amber...

Perfect everyday perfume. It’s clean and flowery but not overbearing. One spritz can really last all day and I got so many compliments while wearing.
