Your Questions, Answered
A gourmand perfume is defined by edible, food-inspired notes, such as vanilla, coffee, caramel, chocolate and creamy accords. These scents are known for their comforting, addictive quality and often feel warm, soft and indulgent on the skin.
Modern brands like Phlur are known for sweet, wearable scents like Berry Cream and Matcha Milk. Others, such as Ellis Brooklyn’s Queen Caramel, pair indulgent sweetness with soft musks for a more balanced finish. You’ll also find vanilla-led favourites in our vanilla perfumes edit, alongside top picks in our best gourmand perfumes roundup.
Gourmand perfumes are ideal for layering. Start with a musky, woody or fresh base to balance the sweetness, then build with sweet or creamy notes. Body mists like Phlur’s Vanilla Skin Body Mist are especially popular for this, offering lighter layers that can be mixed and matched.
