Sweet Coffee Scents

People may be getting addicted to the smell of coffee and perfumers thought, why not create perfumes that embody the scent of roasted coffee beans? If you want to give this scent a try, you can opt for perfumes such as:

• d'Annam's Vietnamese Coffee from their official website for $120
• Kayali's Oudgasm Café Oud from Sephora at $140
• Maison Margiela's 'REPLICA' Coffee Break Eau de Toilette from Sephora at $165

Gourmand Scents

Gourmand is not a new scent in town. However, it is an ever-lasting favorite among perfume connoisseurs. If your goal is to smell like a sweet dessert, these are some of your options:

• Régime des Fleurs Fleur Éclair Eau de Parfum from Moda Operandi at $260
• PHLUR's Heavy Cream Hair & Body Mist from their official website for $38

Spicy Scents

Deviate from the usual sweet scents and try something new this year. These spicy and savory scents may sound a little strange at first but they are quite familiar since they are derived from vegetal ingredients. Here are some perfumes you can try:

• Slice Society from Snif for $65
• JANG (장) Eau De Parfum from Elorea for $150

Clean Scents

Clean fragrances include perfumes that have a light and fresh smell. This kind of scent is popular with rice notes and according to Caroline Sabas, a senior Givaudan perfumer,

"A steamed rice accord is soft, comforting, and clean, and will be familiar to many people".

Some of the perfumes you can try include:

• Diptyque's L'Eau Papier Eau de Toilette from Nordstrom at $130
• d'Annam's White Rice from the d'Annam website for $120

Subtle Scents

2024 was a year for strong and long-lasting scents. However, experts believe that this year is going to be all about barely-there scents or skin scents. Skin scents are designed to not last long. If you are done with #beastmode fragrances, you can opt for any of these softer fragrances:

• Glossier's Glossier You Doux Eau de Parfum from Sephora for $68
• MATIERE PREMIERE's Crystal Saffron Eau de Parfum from Nordstrom for $220 to $290
