Sweet perfumes are self-evident, and dominate a king's share of the olfactory spectrum. These fragrances, largely built on vanilla, are reminiscent of foody smells, specifically sweets and desserts; ranging from the simpler chocolate, fresh cream and caramel smells to complex or more exotic recipes such as macaroons, crème brulée, the ever popular cupcakes and chewy nougat.

Spicy scents are warm or “hot” scents that make us feel cozy, for example, cinnamon & nutmeg blended perfumes. However, they can also be “cool” or add a splash of freshness with an addition of cardamom or pepper. Spicy notes in a perfume are deep, heady aromas that stir up our sense of smell.

Vanilla has a creamy, warm, comforting, yet also slightly exotic scent. It’s a gourmand, intertwined with baking and food flavoring, but a good vanilla perfume has more complexity than a simple sugar-cookie or vanilla ice cream type smell. Scientific research has also shown it’s a calming and universally pleasant scent.
