What are gourmand fragrances?
The term ‘gourmand’ comes from the French word for a lover of indulgence – and these fragrances are for those who adore life’s pleasures. Gourmand perfumes are built on notes that evoke comfort and decadence: creamy white chocolate, rich caramel, bourbon vanilla, even boozy accents like sweet rum. On the skin, they develop a temptingly sweet aroma – the kind reserved for vintage cocktail bars and haute patisseries. Good enough to devour.
But gourmands are not just for the sweet-toothed. Our selection of gourmand fragrances balance dessert-like richness with depth and complexity, striking a seductive chord between comfort and voracious longing. White chocolate and jasmine meet sandalwood and vetiver, creating wonderful creamy aromas that feel intimate and romantic. Sweet rum, Chantilly cream, and sensuous vanilla celebrate the thrill of addictive pleasure. And when striking gourmand notes like black sugar and richly delicious caramel are balanced with woody, spicy, or floral notes, they transcend playfulness and become gorgeously dark and opulent.
More than fragrance, these are emotional experiences. Our gourmands are made to stir memory and desire. For the sweet and the ravenously wicked.
Are gourmand fragrances unisex or gender-neutral?
Gourmand perfumes are beautifully unisex. They often incorporate darker, earthier notes like tobacco, dark chocolate, coffee, rum, or burnt sugar – giving the dessert-like sweetness a more rugged edge. Other gourmands lean softer with notes like vanilla, caramel, and delicate florals to create a scent that’s more feminine and romantic. The real beauty of gourmands? They're deeply personal. If you love rich, delicious scents that make you feel irresistible, gourmands are yours.
What is the difference between ‘fruity’ and ‘gourmand’ scents?
Both fruity and gourmand fragrances can be sweet, but they evoke very different experiences. Fruity scents capture the luscious freshness of nature – sweet raspberry grape, juicy peach, rhubarb, and mandarin. If you adore playfulness and the feeling of sunshine on your skin, explore our selection of fruity fragrances. Where fruity perfumes feel like biting into fresh, ripe fruit, gourmands invite you to sink your teeth into a multi-layered, decadent dessert, blending notes like white chocolate, caramel, vanilla, and burnt sugar. Our gourmands celebrate the art of indulgence, perfect if you adore scents that are richer and more opulent. For the best of both worlds, some of our favourite perfumes layer both, creating a scent that feels like a very special treat every single time you wear it.
