Fragrance can have a powerful effect on our mood and confidence, and it might even leave a lasting impression on your date. While I was looking for the perfect sexy-romantic scents for my next date night, I stumbled upon a post in the Sephora Beauty Insider Community that recommended some scents straight from other beauty addicts.
I tried some of the suggestions and added a few of my own so you can be sure to smell completely alluring to your beau (or just smell good for yourself!).
Yves Saint Laurent Black Opium
Perfume: Yves Saint Laurent Black Opium ($91)
Notes: Coffee, orange blossom, cedar wood, and patchouli
Why it's perfect for date night: This sexy fragrance is utterly intoxicating and will make you feel ultra luxurious. It has both sweet and spicy flavors that add some mystery to your date-night look.
Viktor & Rolf Flowerbomb
Perfume: Viktor & Rolf Flowerbomb ($85)
Notes: Jasmine, orange blossom, and patchouli
Why it's perfect for date night: This fragrance is floral without being too traditional. The deep, woody patchouli notes offset the flowery jasmine ones, making it truly feminine and seductive.
Pinrose Wild Child
Perfume: Pinrose Wild Child ($65)
Notes: Gardenia and jasmine
Why it's perfect for date night: The light-and-fun scent is ideal for beauty lovers with a girl-next-door approach to beauty who wants to smell fresh but prefers simple scents.
Jo Malone Wood Sage and Sea Salt
Perfume: Jo Malone Wood Sage and Sea Salt ($135)
Notes: Ambrette seeds, sea salt, and sage
Why it's perfect for date night: Honestly, this fragrance smells like sex on a beach (not the drink — the literal kind). The sea-salt smell is fresh and evokes a relaxing feeling of lounging by the water, and the woody ambrette seeds and sage make it sophisticated and sensual.
Elizabeth and James Nirvana White
Perfume: Elizabeth and James Nirvana White ($85)
Notes: Peony, muguet, and musk
Why it's perfect for date night: If you're headed to a fine-dining restaurant for your next date night decked in your favorite dress and earrings, pair your look with this Elizabeth and James scent. The mature fragrance is both feminine and classic.
