Date nights are very important. Especially these days when we are always on the run with work. Taking out special time to spend with our special someone is incredibly needed. As important as it is that we wear something attractive and appealing, our fragrance choice should be just as (if not more!) appealing and attractive.
To keep things short and simple, we have listed some of the most romantic notes used in perfumery as well as suggestions to bring these delectable notes to life with product recommendations. Don’t forget to pair your personal fragrance with a romantic home aroma with a mood-setting luxury Reed Diffusers or scented candle.
- THE FAITHFUL ROSE
The rose is widely regarded as the most romantic flower, with its saccharine and gentle scent. When you think of roses, you think of love and romance. We are predisposed to associate the scent of roses with romance, so opting for a rose-based fragrance is smart.
Many perfumes will use a red or pink rose in the development of scent. These rose colors deliver the typical rose smell, however, intense yellow and orange roses can provide a fruitier aroma, so keep an eye on those ingredient lists when selecting a fragrance.
Generally speaking, a rose scent is a powdery, floral scent with a lemony fresh edge for a perfectly balanced aroma.
A few recommended rose fragrances to try:
Home Fragrances:
- TIMELESS JASMINE
Jasmine is used in various perfumes and has an exotic scent, which adds an aromatic floral smell to any fragrance. It creates a creamy, sweet fragrance that is known to be calming. Jasmine can result in the perfect balance of flowery meets woody, which prevents the fragrance from being too sweet. This can be a helpful ingredient to remember if your other half isn’t too keen on really sweet fragrances. Jasmine Oud Absolute has that perfect balance between sweet floral and woody.
- DREAMY VANILLA
Vanilla is a popular scent and is often found in the base of a fragrance, which means it lingers beautifully when all other parts of the perfume have faded away. Vanilla is a warming and comforting scent, working well in all types of perfumes, from oriental and woody fragrances to floral ones.
Vanilla is a very versatile ingredient in many fragrances for both men and women, creating an almost edible, tangible scent that you recognize instantly. We recommend these delightful vanilla-based fragrances:
- ENTICING LAVENDER
Lavender is known to encourage relaxation and is used in a number of beauty products like hand soap, body oil, and face masks. It’s also a popular choice to help maintain fresh scents in your clothes drawers. For this reason, lavender is a perfect ingredient for perfume.
It has an earthy and floral scent that adds a fresh element to the fragrance and has been described as having a calming and comforting effect. Our fragrance Woody Lavender is a unisex fragrance appreciated by those who enjoy the calmness and earthiness of nature. Stay tuned for when it is back in stock.
- INTOXICATING PATCHOULI
The scent of patchouli derives from a plant, giving it an earthy and fragrant musky smell. Patchouli can add great depth to a fragrance and is often found in oriental perfumes. It has a sweet yet smoky smell, which can perfectly balance the sweetness of many floral ingredients.
Patchouli is often used in the base of fragrances to round off the perfume with a balanced aroma. You may often find patchouli and vanilla working together to create the ultimate creamy, woody scent. We recommend trying these:
It is our greatest wish that our recommendations inspire love and romance for years to come. “When we LOVE, we always strive to become better than we are. When we strive to become better than we are, everything around us becomes better, too.”

I love how real these are. Not some synthetic lab creation, they are just amazingly complimentary to my body chemistry and not overpowering. I’m in love.
