Vibrant Abstract Floral
Chanel No.5
You must have guessed this one! Chanel N°5 is, without a doubt, the most iconic scent of all time. At the perfume's center is a floral bouquet of rose and jasmine with a touch of vanilla to deepen housed in an iconic bottle with a minimalist design.
Magnetic Amber Floral
Frederic Malle Portrait of a Lady
It is no surprise that in our quest for more individual signature scents, that Portrait of a Lady would make an appearance. It is sophisticated and elegant, warm and woodsy and deliciously spiced.
Enchanting Oriental Floral
Byredo Mojave Ghost
Inspired by the soulful beauty of the Mojave Desert, fans are uninhibited about their love of the eclectic composition of ambrette, magnolia, sandalwood, musk, and cedarwood. It may be unique but it has achieved A-list status and is loved by celebs–Sienna Miller and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley.
Alluring Woody Aromatic
Le Labo Santal 33
Without question, Santal 33 is the most popular perfume from a niche fragrance designer. It's a unisex and crackling mix of herbs and florals like cardamom, iris, and violet paired with smokier notes of Australian sandalwood, papyrus, and cedarwood.
Sultry Amber Woody
Tom Ford Private Blend Oud Wood
This popular scent is so legendary and in demand that it's sold out. Yes, there are other über-iconic Ford fragrances, but Oud Wood is the unexpected sultry that fragrance insiders covet and admire most. Blame it on the mysteriously elegant (and perfectly intense) mix of wood, vanilla, and a hit of spice.
Sparkling Fresh Floral
Christian Dior Miss Dior
Dior houses many very iconic scents, but Miss Dior is, by far, one of the OG favourites. It is like an olfactory “millefiori”, delicately light and floral with vibrant bursts of bergamot, grasse rose, rosewood, and pink pepper. With its honeyed and peppery notes, reigns over a delectably creamy velvet heart.
Unconventional Spicy Floral
Serge Lutens La Fille De Berlin
If you're an Old Hollywood buff, you'll adore this iconic perfume as it's rumoured to have been inspired by legendary German actress Marlene Dietrich. It has a full-bodied scent rich with notes of glamorous florals like rose and violet, spicy black pepper, and grounding musk.
Refreshingly Green Citrus
Calvin Klein CK One
Chances are you've smelled this popular fragrance about a bazillion times. For those who crave a crisp and clean fragrance, the fruitiness of pineapple and papaya are anchored with the sharper edge of notes like nutmeg, cardamom, and green tea.
Succulent Fruity Floral
Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue
This fragrance is all Mediterranean, summer emcompassing. It's citrusy and sparkly (not literally) and feels like a wave-skimming cruise along the sea-think notes like citrus, apple, and bamboo.
Mythic Amber Spicy
Guerlain Shalimar
Jacques Guerlain created his inaugural oriental perfume in 1925, inspired by the historical gardens of the Taj Mahal. Shalimar possesses an undeniable allure – a mythic fragrance with bergamot, jasmine, rose, iris, vanilla, and balsam notes.
