7 best new perfumes for women that are universally pleasant
You wouldn't want your friends and colleagues to be annoyed with your perfume, would you?
image

When buying a perfume, you should get one that: 1) you love, 2) doesn’t make people around you feel like throwing up, and 3) doesn’t leave a trail for people to track you down.

Armed with these criteria, the Her World team spritzed our way through some of the most recently released fragrances. Those that checked the boxes have one thing in common – notes of two tropical flowers: jasmine, a fresh, calming and uplifting scent, and tuberose, a headier fragrance that has a buttery-creamy scent that gives off a sensual vibe. During the Victorian era, tuberose was thought to be so sensual it was able to induce spontaneous orgasms.

These are the perfumes that please everyone and make others want to hang around you more, not run away.

Gucci Bloom EDP
image

A modern and feminine floral scent, this is reminiscent of a vast garden filled with different and diverse types of flowers. Tuberose and jasmine notes carry the fragrance, and it also features Rangoon Creeper, a plant that’s never been used in perfume-making before. The Rangoon Creeper, which imparts a powdery note to the scent, was discovered in South India, and it changes colour from white to pink, then finally red when it blooms.

Blended by master perfumer Alberto Morillas with direction from Gucci’s creative director Alessandro Michele, this fragrance’s most-recognisable face is actress Dakota Johnson (actress and model Hari Nef and artist Petra Collins are the other two), who embodies the independent and modern woman.

$128 for 30ml; $160 for 50ml; $216 for 100ml

Hermes Twilly d'Hermes EDP
image

Christine Nagel, Hermes‘ perfumer-designer, was inspired by the dreams of young women and the fun they have with the Hermes scarves, known for its colourful and intricate designs. That’s why the Twilly d’Hermes is embellished with a version of these iconic scarves, tied to the neck of the bottle. Freedom, courage, mischieviousness and a hint of impulsiveness – that’s the attitude you get from this feminine scent that combines notes of ginger, tuberose and soothing sandalwood to make it fresh yet mysterious.

$107 for 30ml; $159 for 50ml; $221 for 85ml
