Want To Smell Like A Vanilla Snack? Here Are 10 Fragrances You Need To Try

Who doesn’t love smelling edible?
Want To Smell Like A Vanilla Snack? Here Are 10 Fragrances You Need To Try

Getting your Trinity Audio player ready…

One thing about me: I’m a vanilla girl through and through. I mean, who doesn’t love smelling edible at any hour of the day?

Though vanilla scents had a bad rep once upon a time (remember the middle school days of dousing Bath & Body Works warm vanilla sugar body spray all over yourself before getting on the bus for class?) — it’s certainly grown up with us.

There’s a reason vanilla is so popular in fragrances: the warm and sweet composition is instantly comforting and known to be a mood enhancer. Vanilla is said to also reduce stress and increase feelings of warmth and relaxation. Though not for everyone, these perfumes are much more versatile than you probably think. 

If you want to smell like a snack all day long, here are a few scents to add to your collection. 

01
01 Montale Vanilla Cake

Unapologetically sweet and indulgent, Montale Vanilla Cake is a sumptuous gourmand vanilla fragrance.
