Ever since I was young, I’ve always hated smelling bad. As a kid, I collected so many Bath and Body Works body sprays and as I’ve gotten older, I’ve become a bit of a perfume collector. Recently, I discovered I’m a bigger perfume lover than I thought because I found myself giving fragrance recommendations to my friends several times last week. I’ve also been obsessed with the “that girl” trend on TikTok and decided to compile a list of my favorite perfumes that radiate “it-girl” energy.
- Perfect Intense by Marc Jacobs
-
I’m a big fan of floral and clean smells and Perfect Intense encapsulates those two scents, well, perfectly! It’s fresh and clean smelling with a refreshing feminine touch. It features notes of daffodil, night-blooming jasmine, and sandalwood. You can get the 1.7 oz/50 mL size from Sephora for $95.
- You by Glossier
-
Glossier’s You is definitely one of the most unique perfumes I’ve ever used. Why? Because it changes slightly according to each wearer; meaning no two people will smell the exact same. The base notes of You are pink pepper and iris. Get the 1.7 oz/50 mL from Sephora for $68.
- Chance Eau Fraiche (Eau de Toilette) by Chanel
-
If you like men’s cologne or strong scents, I think you’ll like this one. I always describe this perfume as a “feminine cologne” because it has a fresh citrus and jasmine smell. Chance’s keynotes include citron, jasmine, and teakwood. Get the 1.7 oz/50 mL from Sephora for $110.
- Melrose Place By Ouai
-
If you’re into rose scents, this one is for you. Ouai’s Melrose Place features notes of rose, champagne, and lychee to create a light, floral scent. Plus, the packaging is super chic, and minimalist and features a magnetic lid. Get the 1.7 oz/50 mL from Sephora for $64.
When I wear these perfumes, my whole attitude changes. I feel unique and more put together each day I decide to wear a fragrance. While perfumes and beauty products can help make us feel better about ourselves, it’s important to remember that being “that girl” is all about confidence, not what comes from a bottle.
