We all need a little extra sweetness from time to time. Why not get that in the form of an extra sweet fragrance?
I grew up being part of a generation that was obsessed with vanilla, a note renowned for its sweetness. Most sweet fragrances back in the day relied heavily on the vanilla note. While this hasn’t changed much today, we are seeing more fragrances rely on other notes. Notes like chocolate, honey, caramel, sweeter fruits, and some florals are being used to mimic a sweeter scent. Orange blossom, for example, is mostly used in marshmallow fragrances alongside a marshmallow note to enhance that scent.
If you have a sweet tooth or are just having a current craving for sweetness, check out these scents that will surely satisfy your cravings.

Prepare for a sweet overload with Mark Des Vince Women. It’s a floral, fruity, and gourmand explosion. The top notes of black currant and pear give a juicy, fruity opening, but it’s the Praline that contributes the sweetness. Praline is a nutty, sweet note, often described as a blend of caramelized sugar, almonds, and sometimes other nuts, such as hazelnuts.
This eau de parfum takes sweetness to the extreme, yet it is balanced by delicate white florals, such as orange blossom and jasmine. The strong, woody base provides a grounded counterpoint to the sugar rush.
