Your Gourmand Guide to Fall’s Warmest Scents

The air is crisper, and the leaves are turning stunning shades of blood orange, prompting us to opt for the scenic route even amid rush hour traffic. Yes, autumn is here, and with that comes perhaps the biggest blessing the fall season bestows upon us: Gourmand scents.

Gourmand scents are marked by their delectability and dessert-like notes, including caramel, cinnamon and, perhaps most iconically, vanilla.

So, where spring and summer have citrus and lemongrass scents, fall and winter wrap us in the cozy embrace of candied almonds, spiced cinnamon and sugared milks.

As we grapple with these alarmingly warm winters and a rapidly approaching holiday season, we’ve accumulated a few of the best gourmand seasons to take you through the start of the new year and beyond for every price point.

Nemat

Vanilla Musk Fragrance Oil

Price: $21


Shop at Ulta

Standout notes: Tahitian Vanilla, Cane Sugar and Almond Milk 

Fragrance oils are great for layering but can also hold their own as a stand-alone scent. This vanilla fragrance oil from Nemat is the perfect example.

This ultra-sweet scent is so quintessentially vanilla that it’s the perfect entry-level scent for those looking to dip their toes into the world of gourmand scents without going full-on dessert buffet. We get it; decadent scents can be a lot sometimes.

Lush

Sticky Dates

Price: $40


Shop at Lush

Standout notes: Toffee, Caramel and Dates

Body sprays are also a great way to test the waters of food-inspired scents. They’re fragrant but not overpowering and another great way to layer vanilla scents. As the name suggests, this fragrance is heavily reminiscent of dates, toffee and caramel.

Love Island: USA star Leah Kateb swears by the scent, so it’s often sold out, but it’s currently available for pre-order.

NEST New York

Madagascar Vanilla Perfume Oil

Price: $102


Shop at Ulta

Standout notes: Vanilla Bean, Vanilla Orchid and Coconut

Another quality fragrance oil, this oil is warm and spicy.

Vanilla Bean steals the show, but coconut and vanilla orchid are undoubtedly doing their job as supporting characters.
