1–60 of 77

1 Million Elixir Parfum Intense

Rabanne — A tart apple that turns to sweet vanilla and rose, as one daily wearer describes it, with an almost cinnamon edge that another traces to davana; to a third it smells like the sexiest couple you know.

1 Million Lucky Eau de Toilette

Rabanne — Toasted hazelnut and honey meet a tangy plum and a grapefruit-bright opening, and two reviewers reach for the same image: sweet popcorn.

Arabie Eau de Parfum

Serge Lutens — Dense dried fruit and cumin, with a dark, sticky sweetness and savoury spice.

Ari Eau de Parfum

Ariana Grande — Juicy pear, pink grapefruit and raspberry open sharp and sparkling, then muguet and rose settle into a marshmallow that several wearers place exactly: the coloured ones from the supermarket bag.

Aventus

Creed — It starts as pineapple, apple, bergamot and blackcurrant and turns smoky and mossy as birch, patchouli and musk come through, a clean, fresh thread running from start to finish.

Be Delicious Eau de Parfum

DKNY — Crisp green apple and cucumber with grapefruit, then clean magnolia and muguet, drying to a powdery finish of pale woods, amber and musk.

Blackbird Parfum

Olympic Orchids — Ripe blackberry with dry grass, fir balsam and resinous cedar.

BOSS Bottled Eau de Toilette

Hugo Boss — Simply the office fragrance, to one 2012 reviewer, and one wearer's colleague asked who smelled so pleasantly of fabric softener: baked apple and cinnamon on woods and vanilla, threaded with geranium.

BOSS Bottled Parfum

Hugo Boss — Warm Pepsi and potpourri for the first four minutes, one tester writes, then a sexy drydown; many meet mandarin peel and incense giving way to a milky, jammy fig, powdery iris and cedar.

BOSS The Scent Eau de Toilette

Hugo Boss — A collector of over a hundred colognes never lets this one run out, and their wife sprays it on her pillow when they travel: ginger, a fruity maninka that one owner likens to passion fruit, and a soft leather, in a smooth, office-safe warmth.

Breath of God Perfume

Lush — Two perfumes in one bottle, and wearers can feel the seam: cold air, melon and citrus drifting over temple smoke and sandalwood.

Bright Crystal Eau de Toilette

Versace — Tart rather than sugary, pomegranate and yuzu sit on an icy, watery lotus: to one fan, an iced floral lemonade on a hot day.

Calyx Eau de Parfum

Clinique — Tart grapefruit and guava, then clean rose and neroli; in wearers' telling, green leaves and oakmoss leave the finish damp and leafy..

Cool Water Woman Eau de Toilette

Davidoff — Cold, sharp and fruity, to the wearer who made it their first love; to another, an icy gulp of water on a summer day, or what the Windows XP hills would smell like.

Curve for Men Eau de Cologne

Liz Claiborne — First worn by many as schoolboys, it was a bargain-shelf compliment-getter of the late 1990s and 2000s, and one fan remembers a poor man's pineapple scent that got there before Creed: pineapple and bergamot on green, peppery herbs, drying to a soft woody musk.

Daisy Eau de Toilette

Marc Jacobs — Staying close and lasting a few hours, by reviewers' general account, this is light wild berries and white violet on soft sandalwood..

Dom Rosa Eau de Parfum

Liquides Imaginaires — Rosé in a glass: wearers describe fizzing grapefruit and pear, a dry rose and something like chalky vineyard soil, closer to a wine bar than a flower shop.

Eau Rihla Eau de Parfum

Diptyque — Raspberry against leather, and wearers argue about which wins: jammy fruit and pink pepper over a soft, woody leather that reminds some of a new car seat or a good handbag.

Encelade

Marc-Antoine Barrois — Sour rhubarb, damp earth and leather with a strong green character, which some wearers liken to tomato leaf, compost or burnt matches.

Eros Eau de Toilette

Versace — Subtle it is not, for many wearers, who describe strong projection and long wear from its mint and sweet apple on cedar, vetiver and vanilla..

Euphoria Eau de Parfum

Calvin Klein — Dark fruit and pomegranate sinking into black orchid, creamy amber and wood: a purple, faintly witchy scent its fans save for evenings and winter.

Fame Eau de Parfum

Rabanne — A robot-shaped bottle holding juicy mango, jasmine and a creamy vanilla that wearers liken to a mango mousse or fruit ice cream, and two catch a coconut the house never lists.

Fantasy Eau de Parfum

Britney Spears — Sweet enough to bite, as one owner puts it: fruit and cupcake over a creamy, musky base, comforting rather than grown-up.

Fantomas Extrait de Parfum

Nasomatto — Melon candy on hot asphalt: wearers describe watermelon and caramel against rubber, vinyl and gunpowder smoke, like an inflatable pool toy left out in the sun.

Femme Eau de Toilette

Rochas — Elegant rather than girlish, the fruity chypre wearers describe starts from plum and peach cooked down to a compote and dusted with cinnamon and clove, on a dark, earthy base of moss and leather with cumin running through it.

Fig-Tea Eau de Toilette

Nicolaï — Osmanthus, orange and green tea with an apricot-like davana accent, on a soft guaiac-and-amber background.

Fille en Aiguilles Eau de Parfum

Serge Lutens — Pine sap and dried fruit in a dense, syrupy weave: wearers describe needles, frankincense and a jammy, Christmas-preserve sweetness, bone-dry and peppery on some skins, like a bitter herbal liqueur to one.

God is a Woman Eau de Parfum

Ariana Grande — Pear carries this one and the wearers know it: fresh-cut, watery, candied, stored in its own juice, dipped in caramel.

Gucci Rush Eau de Toilette

Gucci — Creamy peach, gardenia and vanilla over mossy patchouli, with the strong projection and long wear that wearers commonly report..

Happy Eau de Parfum

Clinique — Fresh, clean and light, and the kind of scent strangers stop you to ask about: owners who have worn it for decades tell of colleagues and students wanting the name.

Her Eau de Parfum

Burberry — The limited reports describe jammy berries, violet, clean musk and dry amber.

Hibiscus Mahajád Extrait de Parfum

Maison Crivelli — Tart hibiscus tea and rose preserve lead, cut with spearmint and blackcurrant, before vanilla and a supple leather take over.

Insolence Eau de Parfum

Guerlain — Violet in its loudest form: owners reach for Parma-violet sweets, grape candy and lipstick powder, with red berries and orange blossom behind it.

J'adore Eau de Parfum

Dior — The house describes a jasmine-centred floral with warm ylang-ylang, Damascus rose and fruity facets of jasmine grandiflorum and jasmine sambac.

Juicy Couture Eau de Parfum

Juicy Couture — Tuberose with buttered popcorn, two wearers find, or a white-flower bouquet over watermelon and caramel crème that one self-declared tuberose hater keeps returning to into the 2020s.

La Belle Le Parfum Eau de Parfum Intense

Jean Paul Gaultier — Pears poached in syrup, then vanilla and a great deal of tonka, with a thread of incense smoke underneath: owners reach for it on winter date nights and warn that two or three sprays are plenty.

Lady Million Eau de Parfum

Rabanne — Sweet, loud and glossy, this is the scent that, one wearer says, gets them followed around the office: raspberry and orange blossom drizzled with honey on jasmine and patchouli.

Le Beau Le Parfum Eau de Parfum Intense

Jean Paul Gaultier — A piña colada that turns into a coconut gummy and settles on amber woods, one wearer traces, denser than the Eau de Toilette; others get pineapple and coconut sunscreen, or a creamy tonka-vanilla within the hour.

Le Beau Paradise Garden Eau de Parfum

Jean Paul Gaultier — Mint and ginger open with a cold snap while green, watery notes sit underneath; then come coconut and a humid fig that one wearer likens to the Amazon rainforest and another to a very good coconut hair conditioner.

Legend Eau de Toilette

Montblanc — Abercrombie & Fitch's Fierce is the comparison several wearers reach for: citrus and lavender, a slim thread of pineapple, a soft tonka dry-down and, to one reviewer, a trace of Montblanc's own fountain-pen ink.

Light Blue Eau de Toilette

Dolce&Gabbana — Crisp and fresh is how wearers put it: sharp lemon and green apple against a light cedar background..

Like This Eau de Parfum

Etat Libre d'Orange — Pumpkin and ginger as warm, savoury vegetables and spice, with bright tangerine at the start.

Million Gold for Her Eau de Parfum

Rabanne — For one reviewer the dry-down is the whole point: they smelled it on their boyfriend's chest, found that store strips could not match it, and bought a bottle once a stray spray landed on a finger.

Mitsouko

Guerlain — Soft peach against earthy patchouli and moss, with citrus and spice sharpening the opening.

MOD Blush Eau de Parfum

Ariana Grande — Raspberry and passionfruit hit first and hard — a fruit explosion, in one wearer's words, with a ripe peach nobody can find on the note list — before magnolia and rose soften it and an ambery wood holds the end.

Moonlight Eau de Parfum

Ariana Grande — Blackcurrant and plum start it and the powder stays put, with marshmallow and peony in the middle and sandalwood, amber and vanilla settling underneath.

Mûre et Musc Eau de Toilette

L'Artisan Parfumeur — Picked off the bush, leaf and thorn included, the blackberry sits on a clean white musk, though for some the fruit barely shows and it wears as fresh laundry.

Night Flyer Parfum

Olympic Orchids — Damp earth, mineral air and resins, with ripe figs, banana and other tropical fruit.

Oud Maracujá Extrait de Parfum

Maison Crivelli — Passion fruit you can almost taste, sweet, tart and a little bitter, then a leathery rose and oud with vanilla underneath: that is the arc most wearers describe, and it lasts.

Philosykos Eau de Parfum

Diptyque — Green fig leaf, bark and dry woods, with pepper for an edge, as reviewers describe it.

Poets of Berlin Eau de Parfum

Vilhelm Parfumerie — Blueberry muffin, wearers often say: tart blueberry and lemon on sweet vanilla, with orris and vetiver drying the finish, and it often wears closer after the opening..

Portrait of a Lady Eau de Parfum

Editions de Parfums Frédéric Malle — Rose and patchouli with clove, tart fruit and frankincense, in a texture many reviewers call rich; they also describe it projecting strongly and lasting long..

61–77 of 77

Rouge Eau de Parfum

Comme des Garçons — Ginger and pink pepper with earthy, faintly sweet beetroot; later on, wearers say, incense and cistus turn it dry and resinous..

Sacred Scarab Extrait de Parfum

Zoologist — Lemon and aldehydes fizz like a freshly opened bottle of wine, then the room goes dark: resins, dried fruit, myrrh and a musky, animal warmth that some wear as ritual incense.

Selperniku Eau de Parfum

January Scent Project — A gourmand that is not a dessert: salted butter, apricot and milk, lifted by green cypress.

Spicebomb Night Vision Eau de Parfum

Viktor&Rolf — Green apple is the note wearers name first, then pepper and chili and a sweetness that reads as a Christmas tree to one reviewer and a shisha bar to another.

Sunflowers Eau de Toilette

Elizabeth Arden — Melon and peach sit at the centre of almost every report, lifted by bergamot and softened into a clean, sunlit floral.

Sweet Like Candy Eau de Parfum

Ariana Grande — Blackberry and bergamot first, marshmallow and cassis underneath: wearers reach for sour sweets that make the mouth water, jammy strawberry chews from a corner shop, cotton candy laid over soft white flowers.

Tommy Eau de Toilette

Tommy Hilfiger — Fresh-washed, the scent of 1990s high-school corridors and, to one reviewer, a well-groomed tennis player: spearmint and bergamot, green apple, cranberry and a cotton-soft drydown.

Vacation Eau de Toilette

Vacation — It smells like sunscreen, and that is the point: coconut, banana and a squeeze of pineapple over chlorinated water and warm vinyl.

Very Good Girl Eau de Parfum

Carolina Herrera — Tart currant and lychee open it, and the rose that follows depends on who is wearing it: jammy on one skin, a soapy rose bomb on another, chalky as setting powder on a third, and to an owner who bought it on impulse, a far cheaper cousin of Delina.

Virgin Island Water Eau de Parfum

Creed — Sharp lime and bergamot, then creamy coconut and white flowers; as the citrus fades, soft tonka and musk remain, usually close to the skin by wearers' accounts..

Viva La Juicy Eau de Parfum

Juicy Couture — Wild berries and mandarin over honeysuckle and a caramel-vanilla base, the smell of a late-2000s shopping mall in a pink-bowed bottle: for one owner, a signature and the most complimented scent for over a decade.

Voyage Eau de Toilette

Nautica — From college classes to job interviews, this is the budget summer scent wearers throw on without thinking: green apple and cucumber on a salty, watery lotus.

Womanity Eau de Parfum

Mugler — Sweet and salty at once is the whole design, and wearers say it lands: green fig and fig leaf over a skin-warm saltiness that reads as sea air rather than seafood.
