Gourmand perfumes are fragrances that focus on the presentation of edible scents such as honey, caramel, vanilla, chocolate, and coffee
. They tend to smell sweet and fragrant, with just a hint of seductiveness, and are often blended with sensual musks and dark, earthy patchouli
. Gourmand fragrances can be both feminine and masculine and are considered a subcategory of the modern family of fragrance
. They are made up of sweet, edible notes of vanilla, caramel, cotton candy, chocolate, coffee, honey, cognac, and many other tooth-aching ingredients
. Gourmand ingredients are usually synthetic or ‘fantasy’ ingredients, although some ingredients can be naturally extracted, including coffee, vanilla, tonka bean, and benzoin
. Gourmand scents are almost snuggle-worthy and are perfect for cooler seasons
