Finding that new favourite or enduring signature scent has never been easier with our extensive range of women’s fragrances.

The intial blast of flowers and aldehydes are lovely, but the dry down smells like a strong combination of animalic musk and cinnamon, which sits very unwell on my skin and isn't pleasant. Although I'm not generally a fan of classic Coty fragrances, this one really stands apart from the rest. Its a classic vintage scent-slightly sweet, slightly powdery, slightly floral, elegant and feminine. However - as some long-suffering readers already know - the vagaries of my hot water system mean that I have only managed a proper soak once every six weeks or so, and my reading rate has plummeted accordingly. This perfume has so many of the accords I enjoy: aldehydes, neroli, florals, vanilla, sandalwood, musk, cedar wood.Our top 10 perfume for women is your go-to guide for all things scent-sational and features the best of the best! Then, out of nowhere, it takes a turn and loses all traces of flowers and soap and cleanliness and takes on a heavy warmth, and a spiciness, with a hint of powdery sweetness like the well-baked edges of a pie crust.
