Spring is here, and it’s time to switch up your fragrance game. With the warmer weather and blooming flowers, it’s the perfect time to try out new scents that capture the essence of the season. If you’re a fan of gourmand fragrances, you’re in luck.
There are plenty of niche options out there that will have you smelling like a delectable dessert all season long. In this article, we’ll introduce you to some of the best niche gourmand fragrances for spring.
What are gourmand fragrances?
Gourmand fragrances are scents that smell like food or dessert. They often include notes of vanilla, chocolate, caramel, and other sweet ingredients. These fragrances are popular among people who want to smell delicious and evoke feelings of warmth and comfort.
Why choose niche fragrances?
Niche fragrances are often created by small, independent perfume houses. They are not as widely available as mainstream fragrances and are usually more expensive. However, niche fragrances are often of higher quality and use rare or unique ingredients. Choosing a niche fragrance is a great way to stand out from the crowd and express your individuality.
Niche gourmand fragrances to try this spring
Love – by Kilian
Love by Kilian (also known as Love don’t be shy) gained popularity in recent years for being one of Rihanna’s favorite fragrances. The Grammy-award winning multi-hyphenate apparently wears this scent so much, it’s widely considered to be her signature perfume.
It’s an excellent scent for spring, evoking memories of youth and blossoming first love at first spray. Neroli, bergamot, pink pepper and coriander make up the opening of this fragrance, caressing a vibrant floral bouquet of orange blossom, jasmine, honeysuckle, rose, and iris at the heart. What makes this scent linger in people’s minds, though, is the marshmallow sugar accord that offers undeniable sweetness. Vanilla and caramel further add to its lusciousness and appeal.
Lilac Love – Amouage
Amouage has made many excellent scents over the years, including the iconic Epic Woman. Lilac Love, from the fragrance house’s The Secret Garden Collection, is a gentle and light scent for spring, blending delicate florals with distinctly gourmand notes of cocoa, vanilla and tonka bean.
Green peony and fresh gardenia make up the forefront of this scent, enveloped in a cloud of powdery heliotrope. The heart of this fragrance is pure, luscious gourmand, though, blending bitter cocoa with the creaminess of tonka bean. That creaminess is further amplified by the sandalwood at the base, combined with sweet vanilla, tempered by mossy patchouli.
Mukhallat – Montale
Montale is known for their gourmand fragrances, with Intense Café, Candy Rose, and Chocolate Greedy often being listed as favorites among enthusiasts. Their fragrances are also legendarily long-lasting, making them a top choice for those who love scents.
While the aforementioned 3 perfumes might be a little too heavy for spring, though, Mukhallat is decidedly not. Classified as an amber vanilla fragrance, there’s a distinct hit of strawberry at the forefront of this perfume that is made just that much more luscious by its surrounding notes of vanilla and almond. To balance out and ground the scent, Montale utilizes earthy Peruvian balsam and musk.
