Gourmand is where I live in the summer: pistachio, almond, vanilla and caramel, usually with a floral to stop it turning into dessert. These are five I have worn and enjoyed, from a splurge to a genuinely affordable pick.

Sol De Janeiro Brazilian Crush Cheirosa ‘62

This beautiful combination of pistachio, almond, heliotrope, jasmine, vanilla, salted caramel, and sandalwood is the perfect summer fragrance! It smells absolutely delicious and is such a lovely balance of sweet gourmand and floral.

Elie Saab Girl Of Now

This fragrance has notes of pistachio, pear, mandarin, almond, orange blossom, magnolia, almond milk, tonka, cashmeran, and patchouli. This gourmand scent with a prominent pistachio note feels more grownup when compared to Cheirosa ‘62.

Nuxe Prodigieux Le Parfum

A gorgeous blend of orange blossom, mandarin, bergamot, gardenia, magnolia, rose, coconut milk, and vanilla. This one is probably my favorite of this entire list. It’s such a beautiful, classy fragrance!

Jessica Simpson Fancy

An equally fantastic choice that is more affordable! This fragrance features hints of apricot, pear, red berries, caramel, almond, gardenia, jasmine, vanilla, amber, and sandalwood.

Yves St Laurent Black Opium

This classic fragrance combines pear, pink pepper, orange blossom, coffee, jasmine, bitter almond, licorice, vanilla, patchouli, cashmere wood, and cedar in a seductive way. I enjoy wearing it throughout the year!
