What is a gourmand fragrance? Scents in this category bring to mind desserts and spices while wrapping us up in cozy comfort. Let’s explore the rich edible notes that make gourmand perfumes a favorite scent for fragrance enthusiasts everywhere. 

We love gourmand perfumes for their resemblance to flavors from the kitchen. These scents use ingredients you can almost taste – like vanilla and caramel wrapping up other spices to create a warm aroma. Here’s a closer look at some notable gourmand perfumes available at LaBelle Perfumes.
