Finding your signature scent is like finding the perfect partner: You’re rarely going to know what you’re looking for until you find it. Still, like with any good relationship, you have standards, right? The dealbreakers, your all-or-nothings, etc. When seeking the best perfumes for women, maybe there’s a specific type you’re searching for—either a woodsy and dark winter perfume or a fresh and clean fragrance for spring? Perhaps you even envision a particular situation you’d like your scent to emulate: long walks along the Mediterranean sea, or climbing into an Uber after an eventful evening in New Orleans? All of these aspects can be experienced through fragrance.
“Fragrance is about the way it makes you feel,” says Joan Tanis, national training and events director at Maison Francis Kurkjian. “Wearing a scent that works with your body chemistry can enhance your mood and even change behaviors. Fragrance encourages the release of endorphins, which makes us feel good.”
Thankfully, fragrance masters have made discovering the ideal perfume a little easier than matching you with the perfect date. After scouring the perfume archives for some of the most popular and most interesting perfumes on the market, we found scents with a proven track record for intrigue. Order a few samples to compare and contrast your favorites, or go all-in on a full-size bottle that doubles as décor. This is your perfume love story. Never settle.
Also worth noting: Many of these brands offer some amazing perfume gift sets, so you can treat your loved ones to the magical experience of (hopefully) finding their new favorite scents, too.
