Are you looking for your signature scent? It’s a difficult quest, we know. It requires hours of sniff tests, asking people for their recommendations and diving headfirst into Reddit rabbit holes. Not to mention, with a dizzying array of fragrances vying for attention, finding the one feels like hunting for the perfect needle in a stack of needles. And let’s face it, the line between a good scent and an unforgettable one is impossibly fine.

So, to save you some time (and maybe your sanity), we’ve done the legwork by curating a list of the top selling perfumes—these are the ones that tell a story, evoke a feeling and have the kind of craftsmanship that makes you want to gatekeep (but won’t). From legacy classics to Instagram-famous spritzes that have ruled our FYP, these scents are worth the splurge (but you can shop them for less with Tira’s For You Sale, which is now live). These deserve a prime spot in your fragrance lineup.
