Best Perfumes for Women (Designer)

[@florafleur7108]

'Diabetic scents' kills it ! 😅😅😅. Me too I'm not into those sweet and loud scents at all! They give me horrible headaches. I can't imagine myself wearing them not even smelling them on someone around! Forgot to mention that I'm a woman looking for the right scents not to go wrong again after some huge blind buys fails! Thanks for this very inspiring video because the notes you mentioned are my faves!

[@elnina7]

While my favourites are not here (cos they're sweet-gourmand-woody 😩), this has been an interesting list. Other than The One and Narciso for Her, I've not seen the rest covered by other reviewers. Also, thanks for not being snobbish towards designer frags... in my part of the world, it's not so easy to get niche stuff and especially their samples.

[@FragranceView]

There's lot of great designers for women, no nee to buy Niche at all

[@BurgundyandBlue1111]

You picked such an appropriate background for this listing. I think the women look very soft, ethereal and clean. I imagine that they would be drawn to a lot of the fragrances you listed. :) The one that interests me most (that I have not yet smelled) from your list is Bvlgari Aqua Divina. It is going on my try it list. I really like Jean Paul Gaultier Classique *Essence* de Parfum. It didn't move me the first time I smelled it, but it quickly grew on me the second time I got my nose on it.

[@FragranceView]

I've not tried the Essence version, I'll have to check it out!

[@Fendy1]

I don't like too sweet or girly in a woman's fragrance - I was impressed with the quality and sophistication of Tous for Women, and the stronger aniseed/coffee-like notes in Sofia Vergara Love. I also like the original Sofia Vergara, and Narciso Rodriguez For Her (as you mentioned).

[@justaddlight]

What a sweeeeet backdrop Peter. A great thumbnail too. Personally, I've always liked Coco Noir, Jasmin Noir L'Essence, D&G pour femme intense, NR for her, SJP's Stash and quite a few from Mugler's Alien line. But yeah...darker bottles with darker juice for sure. As for notes, anything dark or gourmand just melts my butter - vanilla, chocolate, booze, incense, amber, cherries, iris, maybe with a touch of jammy rose or oud is a YES. Bright citruses, florals or musks are just not my thang. Definitely agree that there are some great designer options for women!

[@FragranceView]

It's funny, I like the darker heavier fragrances for myself, but on the opposite sex I like the lighter ones haha

[@justaddlight]

Perhaps an indicator or your preferred type of woman?

[@FragranceView]

No idea!! I am not sure if I even have a type

[@freespirit841]

The painting in the background is lovely. Also I like the screen arrangement with your closeup and perfume display. I have to smell JPG classique and Bvlgari Aqua divina. D&G the one rose is really hard to find even on websites. I have smelled and used pretty much the rest on your list. Thanks Peter for this video. No matter how much you like niche, there are always hidden gems among the designer fragrances.

[@FragranceView]

I prefer designers for women, it's just the mens designers I am not a fan of

[@esoto7251]

I love Narciso Rodríguez fragances and also have Coco Mademoiselle and Acqua Divina, really nice perfumes! I have in my 2019 wish list Hypnotic Poison and Ydille among others. Loved your video!!

[@FragranceView]

Thank you!

[@elizacosmetics6061]

Yay, these aren't candy-sweet ones! Not a fan of those either, but they seem EVERY.WHERE. in the designer world of scents. I loooove JPG Classique EDP! Agree, very cozy and pretty. I might need to check out the Idylle eau Sublime, I'm on a quest for a pleasant rose fragrance. The Bvlgari Aqua Divina sounds intriguing-- the bottle itself is enticing, too, like a giant pearl😍

[@FragranceView]

The bottle is really nice! I like it

[@smartfart9003]

Drinking game: take a shot every time Peter says "pretty."

[@FragranceView]

I don't encourage alcohol, but you can drink some water every time I say it lol

[@HelderOliveira-bl2xg]

You're gonna get hammered!!

[@Bassy89]

oh i didnt pay attention to this. have to watch it again but i had the same idea so here is part 2 of the game: take a shot for every "kind of" =)

[@fernandoferdinand4866]

Very appealing choices of women’s designer fragrances Peter. These are the types I give as gifts to my Mom, sisters and female friends. A couple of them I even have in my personal collection that I wear on a regular basis. 2 thumbs up dude!!👍👍😎

[@FragranceView]

Cheers!

[@a.a.4251]

I thought you would like JPG classique essence more. The other ones smell a bit "fake" to me but essence is a totally different perfume from the others.

[@FragranceView]

Not smelled Essence! So possibly!

[@lucianasavaris9499]

I love your choices. My favourites from your list are Dior HP and Narciso Rodriguez. Classique might have been reformulated, because I remember being an opulent, huge, beast-mode floral fragrance 10, 15 years ago. I also love womanity and love by Chloe but they are discountinued. I wear La Colle Noire as a niche version of Blooming Bouquet, but the latter is good enough! 🙂

[@FragranceView]

Thank you, not sure on the reform, but my version was quite soft, so could be

[@jayward238]

Great video. I need to try out D&G Rose the One. My fiance might dig that. She's picky so I'd probably be better off letting her pick. Hope you have a great week, thanks for all you do.

[@FragranceView]

Cheers!

[@molly4495]

Great picks! NR For Her EDT is one of my favorites too.

[@le_Lilyon]

I wear Hypnotic Poison for December/Holiday time. Got a sample of Miss Dior BB, waiting on warmer weather to test. Cheers, Peter!

[@FragranceView]

Nice! Cheers!

[@ScrapIrma]

We have very similar scent-sibilities :) I also really detest sugary sweet perfumes. Of the ones you’ve mentioned, I’ve had and finished Chanel’s Mademoiselle💕... but my 1st love of fruity+floral+musk was and still is Benefit Maybe Baby... addicted!

[@FragranceView]

I've not heard of that one!

[@ScrapIrma]

FragranceView you must try it! I sprayed it on my wrists in the store and couldn’t stop smelling myself and it just got better with time; it’s very feminine, light, ... dried down to a soft musky peach

[@FragranceView]

Sounds good

[@paint.it.6lack]

The make-up company?

[@Fatima-fq9gr]

Narsisco Poudree and the one in black square bottle has peony but not to airy.

[@meredithgrace3742]

You should try quinces they are my favourite ... caramelised quinces, quince paste with cheese ... yummm😋

[@jenic_7455]

“Sits like a brick,” 😁. So true for LVEB. Have each of your selections. Classique edp is such an underrated beauty. Biggest smile on my face the moment you mentioned it. Would love to see part II of your fav designers for women. 🙏🙂 Love your videos. In a sea of filler, you and your content are a beacon. Thank you, Peter.

[@FragranceView]

Cheers!

[@katharinanikol4206]

The Poison Girl EdT version is even more into this direction and almost every man loves it (on younger and more mature woman...;), its one of my faves (im not that much into niches, not really exciting the newer releases for me, but im not an expert like you;)

[@FragranceView]

Wouldn't call myself an expert, I just like to smell lots of things!

[@frusia123]

I love Aqua Divina ❤️ Unfortunately they discontinued it quickly I think

[@Comfortinscents]

This background is beautiful!😍😍

[@FragranceView]

nice isn't it

[@Comfortinscents]

I think Quince had a fruity sharpness to it when Tiggy from FuturePrimitive Soap Co. used it in a product..if that was it. Not sure though either.

[@Fatima-fq9gr]

Yes

[@christopherr6363]

great video pete!:) versace yellow diamonds is quite nice as well !!

[@FragranceView]

Cheers Chris!

[@katb7728]

Great video Peter...love the background so appropriate for this topic.

[@FragranceView]

Thanks! It's a beautiful painting!

[@manda_d]

You should smell Vaara by Penhaligon's. Quince and rose, not too common scent but still an easy to wear feminine fruity floral.

[@FragranceView]

I've not tried that one, I'll have to give it a smell

[@annbecouarn6958]

Enjoyed this Peter thanks..I have coco but must try the mademoiselle ,I chased a woman in the supermarket asking what perfume she had on lol and she said coco but I think it was the mademoiselle. A week later two big squirts and I was suffocating on the bus as the original is heavy and it was summer (big mistake) got to a concert we were on way to and the lead singer ( def leppard ) gave me a hug ...thank god I smelt nice I said to my daughter !!!

[@FragranceView]

That's awesome you got to meet the main guy!

[@silverbutterflyinEnglish]

Wow! Lovely choice! Funny enough, as a perfume blogger I have almost none of this except of D&G The one.

[@FragranceView]

Cheers!

[@M_Ladd]

Very nice! Like your taste! Have you ever smelled M.Micallef Ylang in Gold? If so, wonder what you think?

[@FragranceView]

not smelled it sorry!

Rose the one.... One of my Fave 💖

[@FragranceView]

Glad you enjoy it!

[@stephanthienel]

I would love you to review some of the classic Chanels, just like you did with Mitsouko. Ever tried the original Coco and Coromandel?

[@cutwarnaini]

Hi. Great review. It gets me wondering if you like Narciso Rodriguez For Her L'absolu edp? Thanks in advance.

[@FragranceView]

I don't have a good enough memory with that one to know!

[@bobsaffron8284]

Ever smelled the limited release Narciso Rodriguez For Her Musc Collection Eau de Parfum Intense? I agree that the EDT For Her is special.

[@UnknownChap]

Womans designers seem to be more varied than mens , from my expierence womans perfume has alot more unique scents. Where as mens once a designer has a big hit then every other house seems to follow that trend instead of making something new 👍

[@FragranceView]

There's a lot of repetition in women's designers too I think

[@camipeterson6683]

I absolutely agree. Tho I think a lot of it has to do with how fragrances are such a huge part of the cosmetics world, and therefore something many women will spend exorbitant amounts of money on. Go where the money is, eh?

[@UnknownChap]

@@camipeterson6683 i can definetly see that , i had eyes like i stood on a lego seeing the amount of cosmetics are available and just how much they cost! I need to get into that business after all the Christmas spending 😂

What's your opinion on Shiseido ZEN Eau de Parfum and Roberto Cavalli Eau de Parfum? They are two of my favourites. I will take a look at your suggestion of Miss Dior Blooming Bouquet.I cant remember if I tried it before .Thank you for the review

[@FragranceView]

Never tried them!

[@_Frimer_]

@@FragranceView You should definitely try them. Specially ZEN.I think it's the kind that you like according to your reviews. It's by Michel Almairac ; )

Aqva Divina is lovely, one of my favorite warm weather fragrances.

[@deanboman]

You should check Gucci Flora and the female Issey Miyake, I think you would really them as well.

[@FragranceView]

Smelled the IM for women, it's not bad, I don't love it though...

[@deanboman]

@@FragranceView check the Gucci Flora, it has a nice peony note!

[@justStardust940]

Peter, I know you prefer natural sources of fragrances. Do designer female fragrances smell less synthetic than their male counterparts?

[@FragranceView]

No, equally as synthetic... I just prefer the smell of the feminine smelling synthetics, than the ones commonly used mostly in male scents..

[@kaseycheung]

i have tried most of the frags mentioned in this video. it's so unfortunate that the recent formulation of Dior Hypnotic Poison does not work well on me while D&G The One and Chanel Coco Mademoiselle are quite boring and too many women wear these frags in my city. cheers x

[@FragranceView]

I guess I like popular, boring perfume haha, cheers!

[@kaseycheung]

@@FragranceView most likely my problem. i know these frags are crowd pleasing for some reason. i just cannot identify with many of them. just not me. btw, the patchouli is quite heavy in Coco Mademoiselle, and you like it. :)

[@FragranceView]

Certain times I like it, certain times I don't!

[@itskyyuuuu]

I remember liking mugler alien eau extraordinaire for the ladies. Do you remember ever trying that one?

[@FragranceView]

Probably have, but I don't remember it specifically... I am not a huge fan of the Alien line in general, some are better than others

[@itskyyuuuu]

@@FragranceView this was a lighter fresher one featuring Bergamot, tiare flower, tea, ylang-ylang, sandalwood and musk

[@FragranceView]

don't think I recall that one, I'd have to go out and smell it

[@gailthomas5476]

Hi Peter interesting video reveiw thanks, i love narciso rodriguez i had a bottle for Christmas of my son Steve , its pretty god dame lush , lovely musky floral notes 👍

[@elnina7]

Alien the original is definitely in my top 5. I discovered it really late and got it for my mum. Need to check out the flankers but the ones I want are hard to come by. This is why I don't wanna fall in love with flankers, and houses like Mugler and Guerlain seem to enjoy breaking hearts when they could still be raking in good money. 😂

I believe they have Beautiful Rose ones too. Worth a look. Enjoy.

[@cottagegardener3725]

A video on dime store perfume that actually smells good would be a fun video. Battle of the celebrity perfumes?

[@FragranceView]

maybe one day.. I've not really tried any celebrity perfumes

[@cottagegardener3725]

So I know that it lacks the sex appeal that a perfume that costs the price of a months worth of groceries (bought at Whole Foods even) might have, but there’s something to be said for perfume that is made for the masses and if any low priced perfume is actually any good. Reading some of the comments across various perfume videos (and various creators), there’s definitely a snob appeal that people revel in when it comes to high priced perfume but it would be interesting to find out if there is any “bargain brands” and mass produced celebrity perfumes that are any good.

[@stefaniejean8148]

Love your perfume choices. Your background was freaking me out a bit. Great choices though👍🏻

[@JCPatrick]

That’s so funny the first one was “The One” by D&B, bc I literally just found this at Macy’s and bought it yesterday!! Lol I also bought “The Only One” and “The One Essence”. I’m only 1:45 secs in, so I’m looking forward to the rest!! :)

[@bobsaffron8284]

It would seem to me that women generally have a finer sense of smell (evolution as child-nurturers/food gatherers?) - do you think that's a fair observation?

[@FragranceView]

apparently women have more brain cells dedicated to scent, so possible yes.. though most of the best known perfumers in the world are male

[@avamiscelano]

i like a lot Coco mademoiselle. i love chanel, the story of the woman Chanel herself, and i think chanel makes perfect fragrances, even if one doesnt like this or that one, but i mean in quality of the fragrance they are perfect and i would say they used to be for a designer house a more niche aproach of fragrances, such as number 5, that most or love it or hate. i personally love it and is not ah because is chanel, no, because i love the female sense of woman of the number 5, as if put together different arcquetypes of woman in one same bouquet, and chanel grew up in brothels, so when ernest beaux made some options of fragrances for her and she chosed number 5, was because it evoked thatsort of courtesans whores smells, that has this feeling of powdery that resembles make-up smell and like Chanel said, a smell of a real woman. and i normally wear the toilette version of the number 5, where the soupy of the ylang ylang and the jasmine, which is my favourite note for life, i love jasmine, with the vibe of sandal wood and amber, i love amber, and than sometimes the smell of rose pop-up, so pink in te middle of the sparky golden vibration of te bouquet itself, and as iris, another note i simply love so much. i used to wear from chanel the Chance, and was about 3 years ago that meet again the number 5 with lets say a different nose, i think a better nose, that before i was not grown up enough to appreciate and i dont agree when people reduce such a pretty as you would say using pretty, such a pretty fragrance that is for me, as old lady smells. the old lady were young one day and most of them started to used chanel 5 when they were young and kept wearing it you know. ans a good smell will be alwways a good smell. and i like to appreciate fragrances also beyond my personal liking, but thinking about it as a creation that envolves atmospheres, so i can recognized the goodness of one fragrance even if me personally dont like it. but to me to like it, the fragrance needs to bring me to intimate places in myself, as some sort of trip within myself, and i dont care if would be a fragrance that would receive this or thhat compliments. and i also believe that wen someone feels like one fragrances, others perceive also differently, as if the persons energy combines with the fragrances becoming a bouquet together. on me number 5 works very well. the number 22 is also cool. i guess last decades they are becoming more approachable with more design such as Chance and Coco Mademoiselle, but my favourites are the more niche one, such as the exclusivs line and even number 5 by how it smells, can be consider more niche. and i there is so many women that agree with me that is not old lady smell at all, in this pejorative way you know. personally . i love to research about perfumary, but i dont keep much fragrances with me, i like to keep some just and go finding what i think would be my smells for life.

😬 this proves that not every man knows a good smelling perfume! I mean even in designers .. you could’ve chosen more unique ones 😆 but as you said you don’t know much in women fragrances,and you chose the ones most women might probably use. I also don’t like too sweet perfumes , but i don’t like those perfumes .

[@FragranceView]

I gotta disagree, I picked the ones that inherently smell good to me personally, ones I would buy for a girlfriend, there's no set definition on what a "good" smelling perfume is.. what's good is a personal experience, beauty is in the eye of the beholder
