After hours of spritzing, here are the fragrances that are beauty editors are betting on this season. They’re heady, alluring and will last long after the party is over.
Here’s a list of best perfumes for women :
- Madhavi Irani
Designation: Chief Content Officer
Perfume name: Chanel No. 5
“My go to fragrance is Chanel No. 5. The first time I ever wore it is when my then fiancé gifted it to me, and it was love at first whiff! I don’t like heavily floral or fruity scents and unlike very flowery smells, this iconic scent is a lovely mixture of Rose, Ylang-ylang, Jasmine, Lily of the Valley and Iris, layered over a warm, woody base of Vetiver, Sandalwood, Vanilla, Amber and Patchouli. What I also love is how this fragrance reacts to body chemistry and smells different on me and my friends. Finally, if it was good enough for Marilyn Monroe then it is for me too!”
Note: The next time you’re travelling don’t forget to pick it up.

Perfume name: BVLGARI Omnia Amethyste Eau De Toilette
“Why I love it: As someone with nose as sensitive as a dog, it's important for me to always smell good. I love this particular fragrance from Bvlgari because it's not too sweet (like most floral scents tend to be) and it's not too strong either. It's just the perfect blend of woody and floral which makes me feel sexy, confident and simply on top of my game. A couple of spritzes on my pulse points is all I need to fully complete my look, no matter what I'm wearing, and I'm completely ready to paint the town red.”

Perfume name: Carolina Herrera Good Girl
“My forever and always fragrance: Carolina Herrera Good Girl Eau De Parfum. The scent is soft and feminine, yet spicy and sultry at the same time. Plus, the added notes of Tonka Bean and Cocoa leave a memorable trail that smells a lot like decadence in a bottle. Best of all, it lasts through the night and lingers on my skin without being overpowering. I am obsessed!”
- Yamini Walia
Designation: Senior Executive - Content
Perfume name: Giorgio Armani Si
“I am not a big fan of strong scents. I prefer subtle fragrances for the day or even to wear at a party. Which is why my forever favourite has been Giorgio Armani Si. I picked this floral fragrance two years ago and I still swear by it because of its refreshing notes. I feel the fragrance fits my introvert personality just right too.” If you share the same personality like mine, then this is the best ladies perfume in town!
- Bhoomi Vasavada
Designation: Executive - Marketing
Perfume name: Dolce & Gabbana The Only One
“My current obsession is Dolce and Gabbana - The Only One. It wears well for all occasions, with seductive Violet and traces of Bergamot on the top, the heart includes an interesting contrast of rich Coffee and charming Iris, which makes it just a bit addictive. This long lasting perfume is perfect because the enchanting aroma accompanies you wherever the night takes you.”
- Shivani Haribhakti
Designation: Assistant Manager - PR & Communications, Content
Perfume name: Davidoff Cool Water
“An all-time favourite perfume for women, one can never go wrong with this one! The queen of aquatic scents, Davidoff Cool Water Woman Deodorant Spray is the essence of sensuality, freshness and natural beauty. I've been using this scent for the longest time. The refreshing, oceanic scent is perfect for someone who isn't a fan of floral fragrances. Lasts really long and is perfect for every occasion! Whether you’re heading to a brunch or a girl’s night out, it’s perfect. A definite add to bag to a woman's beauty checklist.”
- Lakshmi Nayar

Perfume name: Versace Eros Pour Femme Eau De Toilette
“I feel like fragrances are extremely personal. However, it wasn't until two years ago that I found my signature scent, the Versace Eros Pour Femme Eau De Toilette. It's bold and opulent (like Donatella) as opposed to sugary sweet, making it perfect for all the soirees that I will be attending this party season. I've got to thank my colleague for introducing this bottle to me because I've not looked back ever since.”
- Mousree Paul

Perfume name: Moi by Nykaa Amour Eau De Parfum
“It starts off smelling light and refreshing due to the Jasmine and Lilies, but a few hours later, it wears down to a woody scent because of the Patchouli and Musk base. The fragrance intensifies once it comes in contact with my body’s warmth, so I apply it on my pulse points and then step out the door. While it’s ideal for a night out, there’s no rule that says you cannot wear this on a summer afternoon.”
