Why it’s worth it: Got a sweet tooth? Even if you don’t we bet you’ll develop a craving for Phlur’s Heavy Cream Body Mist. This gourmand body mist flips the script on the usual bake shop-inspired fragrance by adding two juicy, citrusy notes—lemon sugar and orange—into the mix. As it dries down, you’ll sniff a lineup of delectable notes like coconut, vanilla mousse, salted caramel, and whipped cream.

Tester feedback: “Judging by the name alone, I didn’t think I would like Heavy Cream—I’m not a gourmand girl and typically go for lighter, brighter scents,” says commerce editor Sarah Han. “But! Heavy Cream is the perfect dessert-y scent that I don’t find too overwhelming—it’s like a bite of fluffy vanilla cake in scent form or the caramel latte I make at home every morning. And I love the hint of citrus I get as it settles into my skin, courtesy of a lemon sugar top note. Scrumptious.”

Key notes: lemon sugar, marshmallow, orange, jasmine, coconut, vanilla, vegan ambrettolide (synthetic musk), vanilla mousse, salted caramel, whipped cream

Why it’s worth it: We know, vanilla perfumes are everywhere right now, but Snif’s Vanilla Vice Eau de Toilette stands out from the rest for its balanced play on the trending note’s warm and sweet traits. On paper (screen?), this fragrance sounds like something that crawled out of a Carvel—it’s inspired by vanilla ice cream, after all—but it’s surprisingly subtle in terms of sugariness. Along with hints of vanilla ice cream, you’ll notice its warmer, spicier cousin, Madagascar vanilla. Its sweet, sugary notes are cushioned with a trio of warm amberwood, orcanox (a synthetic form of ambergris), and musk.

Tester feedback: “I’m a sucker for a warm vanilla scent and this gourmand fragrance from Snif is my newest favorite,” says associate editor Annie Blay. “It has just the right amount of vanilla but doesn’t veer into sugary territory—not to mention it’s perfect for layering!”

Key notes: vanilla ice cream, Madagascar vanilla, jasmine, amberwood, orcanox (synthetic amber), musk

This TikTok-viral hit has taken over just about every beauty vlogger’s fragrance rotation for its juicy, tropical fruit-inspired mix of guava nectar, coconut water, and lemon. Its ultra-fruity scent profile is balanced with hints of floral orchid, iris root (also known as orris), and musk.
