Flowers, fruits and sunshine, oh my… Spring is on it’s way and I can already smell the flora of Hawaii getting ready to bloom. Together with The Beauty Blogger Collaboration, I bring to you my list of Favorite Spring Fragrances for 2015.
It’s well known that I’m a sugary scent lover and I don’t tend to stray far from the scent I’ve been profiled for… but I also like clean scents, floras and fruity notes and tend to pull for those most during the Spring months.
DKNY is a staple in my fragrance book and a scent I use year round but more during the spring and summer seasons since it smells clean and fresh. With notes like freesia, jasmine, lotus, white amber and rose – this scent smells fresh and clean while still offering a flirty and girly to the mix.
I’m not gonna lie, though I did smell a sample of this perfume and enjoyed it, I bought Taylor Swifts Wonderstruck because I was absolutely in love with the packaging. We all know I love purple and I just knew I had to have this. But this perfume is so much more than just a cute bottle. Wonderstruck offers such a soft, feminine touch to what can often be a hard exterior on me. With notes like raspberry, black berry, peach and vanilla, I absolutely love the fruity side of this perfume.
It’s no secret that I am a huge Coach fan and I have always enjoyed their fragrances, but Coach Love is a fragrance I consider a favorite during Spring and year round. Since this perfume includes Patchouli, I didn’t think I would like it – but with a blend of Gardenia, Violet, Vanilla and Caramel as well as musk and sandalwood, everything seems to come together perfectly and fits my scent favorites exactly.
Anyone who knows me, knows that I’m a huge fan of Pink Sugar by Aquolina, so it comes to no surprise that I would love Delicious Cotton Candy by Gale Hayman. This became a favorite of mine after stumbling into it at my local Ross. Needless to say – I was quite intrigued with the name… Cotton Candy. Come on now, there is no way I would be able to not try this scent out. It has become a favorite of mine and while it may be too sugary for some, I love it and a little goes a very long way. Filled with notes of Cotton Candy, Vanilla, sugar, caramel, strawberries and fruits like orange and plums, this scent is definitely delicious.
Last but not least is Lavanilla’s Vanilla Coconut. If you don’t know this already – I lather myself in coconut oil, coconut body butter and all that yumminess each night so mixing two of my very favorite scents together is absolutely divine. I know, I know… it might be a little too sugary sweet for some, but I can’t help it… my momma didn’t name me Honey because I was sour… lol. This fragrance includes three favorite scents of mine… Coconut, Madagascar Vanilla and the Tahitian Tiare flower (which I have in my yard about ready to bloom). It encompasses my favorites while giving me a feeling of sexy and girly.
Whether fruity, floral or sweet I think perfumes and fragrances are all a matter taste and preference and I’m finding that scents I didn’t like before, I find I enjoy them now. I consider myself someone who thinks seasonally – so I really enjoyed putting this post together to share with all of you. What about you? What are the scents you are looking forward to using this Spring?

I don’t take season into mind when I wear a fragrance. I just grab what I’m in the mood for. I wanted to love Wonderstruck because the bottle is so gorgeous but it didn’t happen for me.
My sister didn’t like it either… but she likes those kinds of scents… so we assumed it was her chemical make up that didn’t agree with her.
I am going to have to seek out the Coach scent. It has a number of notes that often work well for me. I have LaVanilla’s vanilla scent, and I like the vanilla coconut too. I have tried DKNY, but Cashmere Mist is one of my faves especially for spring
I think you will like it 🙂 the DKNY is a clean scent… reminds me of like a Cashmere like scent 🙂
I am a huge Coach fan too. I don’t think I have smelled Love yet though.
I think you would like it 🙂
Great picks for everyday wear!
thank you 🙂
wonderstruck will always be my #1!! LOVE that scent so much
I picture you as a wonderstruck user… 😀
Lavanilla fragrances are so nice! Perfect for fans of edible scents – like me 🙂
yes they are… so yummy!
I’ve heard really good things about Lavanilla fragrances. I still haven’t tried them, but they’re definitely on my list.
I buy the roll ons instead of the full size bottles… they are about $20 but still worth it – you get a lot of uses 😉
The wonderstruck bottle is gorgeous
it really is 😉
I love love love the smell of coconut. I like airy and fresh scents too- I’m going to have to check these out!
I think you’ll love them 🙂
Wonderstruck smells divine on my sister!! Like, really, really fab!!
it’s such a sweet scent… very girly.
I love Coach Love! Great picks! I am a perfume hoarder and I see some here I need!
Oh yes… you will love them 😀 I love Coach Love!
I don’t have any of these. Thanks for your reviews on them. 🙂
thank you for reading 😉
oooh I need to try the cotton candy scent! I didn’t realize we have such similar perfume tastes, but I love sugary sweet scents too!
oh gosh girl… I love sugary scents… addicted 😀
I like fruity and floral, but not too much of the sugar. Some of these sound really nice for Spring!
You will love the Taylor swift one… I love the fruit scents in it 😉
I love the lavanilla!
definitely a favorite 🙂
OMG I need that Taylor Swift perfume. Or at least an empty bottle. It is gorgeous! I love the sound of Pink Sugar as well. Not a huge fan of coconut though.
Same – I think I will find some use for the bottle – I hope 😉 You will love Delicious Cotton Candy 🙂
I LOOOVEEE the scent of Taylor’s Swift perfume!!
🙂 me too
Taylor really does have gorgeous packaging on her fragrances. I want them all to come with matching nail polishes lol
Yes – I can certainly agree with that and having matching nail polishes… oh my gosh – great idea 😀
I am a HUGE fan of Aqualina’s Pink Sugar too. I have to hunt down Cotton Candy and try that out.
You will love it 😀
What a lovely selection of perfumes! I don’t have any of these, and the only one that I have smelled is the Lavanilla! It’s SUPER yummy!
Yes, most if not all of Lavanilla scents are so delicious!
I’ve had people stop & ask me what I’m wearing when it is the Taylor Swift- they’re always shocked!
I was shocked I liked it 😉
I will have to keep my eye out for Delicious Cotton Candy that sounds like it smells amazing
I have seen it online at some sites and at Ross 😉 You’ll love it.
So many great sounding scents, but as a reformed Pink Sugar fan I’mma need to get my hands on a bottle of Delicious Cotton Candy!
lol – yes, get it girl! 🙂
I love your collection
thank you 🙂
The Wonderstruck bottle is really pretty.
it really is 😉
Those all sound so nice…I grew up on Oahu and even though I live on the mainland now I still love anything that smells like coconut
Oh my gosh – I know… it’s is so hard to get past the smell of coconut and think of Hawaii. 😉
That Lavanilla and Coach one smell heavenly and it’s perfect for Hawaii. Everytime I see your posts, I miss Hawaii more and more. <3
Yes girl… they really are perfect Hawaii scents. 😉 Thank you! Hawaii surely misses you <3
