Delina Eau de Parfum

If you go into a room wearing Delina, someone is bound to smell you since the sillage (or fragrance trail the perfume leaves behind) is powerful. When I have a major function at work and want to create a nice impression, always spray a little Delina on your wrist and behind your ears. The powdery, musky, rose, and vanilla fragrance makes feel powerful and robust.
PROS: Has the strong sillage of any scent I've tried
CONS: Might be *too* powerful for certain people

PHLUR

Testers describe this scent as smelling like "home," or like hugging a loved one. Why? In my opinion, it smells like a human rather than a perfume. It's soft and light, with notes of musk, sandalwood, and jasmine that mingle together in a dreamy, skin-like way. you will enjoy wearing this perfume to sleep (together with the body lotion and hand cream) since the aroma is so soothing.
PROS: Smells pretty neutral and clean, according to reviewers
CONS: It does not last for too long

Santal 33 Eau de Parfum

Santal 33 is largely responsible for making it fashionable to smell like firewood. It's Le Labo's most popular smell to date, with elements of sandalwood, leather, and cedarwood creating a smoky, woodsy atmosphere. In the dry down, however, you get warm musk and powdered violet, making this perfume far more nuanced than a campfire.
PROS: Lasts on clothes for several days.
CONS: Some people thought it smelled too plain or "basic"

KILIAN Paris

Gourmands these days aren't simply selling sweet scents; they're also selling baked foods. Kilian's Love, Don't Be Shy (which Rihanna famously used before creating her perfume, Fenty by Fenty Beauty) blends sugar, vanilla, and caramel in a manner that reminds me of luscious, creamy marshmallows. However, it is also coated with orange blossom for a citrusy note and pink pepper for spiciness. It's almost sure to make you smell delicious.
PROS: IMO, it smells luxurious and syrupy without being *too* appetizing.
CONS: A few critics stated it's a little cloying and "sickly sweet"

SUN FRUIT Eau de Parfum

Fruity, zesty, and all-around delicious, this vibrant scent by Ellis Brooklyn feels like a blast of cheerful energy every time you spray it. At first, you'll notice a pleasant, mild blend of pear, fig, and coconut, which will gradually fade into a thick musk during the day. One of our favourites for year-round wear.
PROS: Doesn't smell too sweet—just light and fresh.
CONS: Some testers wished it had more body so that it would linger longer.

Paradoxe Eau de Parfum

So this Prada perfume has three advantages: (1) It's frickin' Prada, (2) the bottle is really cute and unusual, and (3) the packaging is environmentally responsible, with a refillable bottle and sustainable paper and cardboard out packing. If you can imagine yourself chewing on a pear amid a field of white blossoms, you can imagine what this perfume smells like joy.
PROS: Refillable bottles and environmentally friendly packaging
CONS: Some of the testers found it too sweet.

KAYALI VANILLA

Hate florals? Hate musk? Hate anything but the lovely, warm aroma of vanilla? Hello, same. As someone whose signature body lotion aroma has been vanilla since middle school, I simply enjoy this ~grown-up~ version by Kayali.
PROS: It has a much more elevated feeling than typical vanilla smells.
CONS: Some reviews said it was too one-note and simplistic.

Maison Margiela

This perfume smells like travelling around Palermo, Italy when the lemon trees are blooming. But, you know, it's much cheaper than an airline ticket. The bright, sparkling citrus smell is inspired by a prior recollection of perfumer Violaine Collas and includes notes of coriander, tea leaves, and white musk.
PROS: Layers well with other perfumes.
CONS: Some testers thought it excessively lemony.

CHANEL COCO MADEMOISELLE

Chanel's best-selling perfume combines fresh and flowery notes. The spicy patchouli, zesty citrus, and rose notes scent pleasantly fresh and contemporary, without being too cutesy.
PROS: The scent remains throughout the day and night.
CONS: Some testers found the aroma difficult to completely wipe off.

Tom Ford Oud Wood

This perfume has a cult-like appeal and with good cause. The smokey and woodsy combination of oud, sandalwood, and vetiver smells sensual and intriguing. It's an ideal scent for a night out or a date. Very well done, Tom Ford.
PROS: Testers enjoyed the blend between sensual and melancholy.
CONS: Some critics said the richness was nearly *too* heavy.
