From vanilla to cotton candy – gourmand perfumes to enjoy
What makes a gourmand fragrance?
Typical for gourmand fragrances is the use of so-called gourmand notes – i.e. fragrance notes that are reminiscent of edible delights. It's not just about biting into something, but about a complex connection between the senses, skin and scent.
Popular examples:
- Vanilla, Tonka Bean, Caramel
- Honey, nougat, praline
- Coffee, cocoa, roasted nuts
- Cotton candy, marshmallow, buttercream
These notes often unfold on the skin like a warm dessert – an olfactory gourmet moment, composed by the perfumer with great sensitivity.
When is a gourmand perfume appropriate?
Although many gourmand fragrances appear opulent, they come in a variety of compositions – from light to heavy. They fit particularly well:
- In the evening – mysterious, striking, memorable
- In winter – warm, soft and secure
- For special occasions – when you want to stand out
- For people who like it sweet, luxurious or sensual
- Also possible in everyday life – for example in the form of airy gourmand fragrance combinations with citrus or fruits
Who are Gourmand fragrances made for?
A gourmand perfume can be masculine, feminine or unisex. Vanilla, praline or marshmallow often dominate women's fragrances. In men's fragrances, it is coffee, rum, oud or roasted aromas. The spectrum ranges from playful to elegant – always with its own unique character.
