Sweet, or “gourmand”, perfumes borrow from the dessert table — vanilla, tonka bean, cacao, coffee, almond — for a warm, cosy and addictive trail. The Fumist makes 4: N° 18 — sweet and warm: a fruity opening, then davana and osmanthus on vanilla and tonka (unisex); N° 21 — a bold floral gourmand: almond and coffee, jasmine sambac and tuberose, tonka and cacao (for women); N° 02 — rich, sweet and resinous: saffron and rose over amber and oud (unisex); N° 09 — a warm floral: rose and orange blossom over amber, sandalwood and vanilla (for women). Prices start at ₹799 for 50 ml or ₹1,399 for 100 ml.

Questions

About sweet & vanilla perfumes

What is a gourmand perfume?

A perfume with edible-smelling notes — vanilla, tonka, caramel, coffee, cacao, almond. They tend to feel warm and comforting.

Which sweet perfume can a man wear?

N° 18 and N° 02 are unisex. N° 02 is the less sugary of the two: its sweetness sits under saffron and oud.

Are sweet perfumes too heavy in summer?

They are richest in cooler weather and in the evening. In the heat, one spray is plenty.
