Ā
wore this one to work and literally everyone, including my boss, asked what perfume I was wearing. thatās how good this one smells
Commodity Milk+ Bold Eau de Parfum with Marshmallow & Firewood

Strawberry is a floral scent that isnāt too sweet. Most of Malin + Goetzās scents are gender neutral and great for layering
MALIN+GOETZ Strawberry Eau de Parfum

Perfect might be the most floral scent on the list. Light and airy, I reach for this scent in the spring and summer. Smells like sweet roses in a bottle āļø

Burberry Her used to be my go-to before discovering Valentino Born in Roma and Commodity Milk. Itās a good introduction to gourmand fragrances with a slight woody/musky undertone. Also prone to get compliments when wearing it :)

body care + shower
Affordable options for yummy smelling body wash + lotion with similar notes to the other fragrances in this list but none that are too overpowering. Think peony, bergamot, vanilla, and musk.

Affordable + accessible but with the undertones I love in any perfume: peony + rose. Never dries out my skin :)
Pure Peace Body Wash - method

This a mid weight body lotion that smells divine (patchouli, jasmine). Itās never irritated my sensitive skin and is best for after the shower moisturizing!
Sukin Bergamot & Patchouli Body Lotion 16.9oz

Tried this body wash at a recent stay at the Hoxton in Brooklyn and was obsessed. Again, I love a woody scent and this one is subtle but long-lasting. Moisturizing and doesnāt strip the skin! Sadly only sold on the Hoxton site.

Mid weight shaving cream with a lightly gourmand vanilla scent :) an affordable option that Iāve repurchased over and over again!
