Must-Have Products to Smell Like Delicious Vanilla: My Top Picks
If smelling like a freshly baked cupcake is one of your life’s passions (because same) then keep scrolling.
There’s just something about vanilla. It first appeared in Guerlain’s Jicky fragrance all the way back to 1921. Ever since, it’s been an absolute staple in the fragrance world.
When I was a little kid, I used to go and sniff the vanilla extract in the pantry and think… I want to smell JUST like this. Once I entered my tweens, I graduated to body sprays from Calgon, Bath and Body Works and one of best short lived brands for the girls who love sweet smells: Dessert by Jessica Simpson. And now? I still love vanilla but I’ve managed to explore more than just drug store body spray options.
Below is a mix of some old faves, new finds and goodies in all price ranges for those who also love vanilla vibes.











I am a huge fan of Phlur. I finally got my hands on Vanilla Skin after it was sold out for forever and it is incredible. Warm, spicy & sexy. It’s a true vanilla and I guarantee you’ll love it.
Insanely sweet and absorbs quickly. I currently have 3 bottles in my bathroom. It’s a pure vanilla and is one of my top products on this list. Sweet, sweet, sweet.
If you’re into luxury, this is the vanilla body cream for you. It’s super rich, the packaging is refillable and smells like soft serve vanilla ice cream.
Laugh all you want, this is a CLASSIC. The smell brings me right back to high school. I had the Warm Vanilla Sugar and Cucumber Melon body sprays in my locker. This scent still gets a huge thumbs up from me (for nostalgia’s sake).
I’ve written about this on here many times. It’s my favourite body scrub and the best bang for your buck.
This is such a great vanilla perfume. It’s a little more woodsy and dark than Vanilla Skin but still dries down sweet. I love Kayali’s playful launches and can’t wait to get my hands on Vanilla Candy Rock Sugar.
Happy Spritzing!
