Diptyque Fleur de Peau, 75ml EDP

It’s a pretty special fragrance that claims the crown of best everyday fragrance, so we weren’t surprised to see that this dreamy Diptyque number had nabbed it. The fact it was designed to be genderless explains some of its popularity, but it’s easy to see why everyone loves this blend of musk, iris, pink peppercorns and ambrette. A gorgeously creamy and warm scent that only gets better the longer you wear it.

Shortlist:

Parfums de Marly Valaya Exclusif EDP

Byredo Blanche EDP

Glossier You Doux EDP

Best night-time fragrance

Prada Paradoxe Intense EDP

Prada Paradoxe Intense, 30ml EDP

There is something electrifying about this blend of amber, jasmine and moss accord, so it makes total sense to see it got your vote for the best fragrance to wear after dark. Addictive and bold, but with a creaminess that feels familiar and warm, it’s the perfect scent to wear, wherever your evening takes you.

Shortlist:

Maison Francis Kurkdjian Baccarat Rouge 540 EDP

Rabanne Million Gold For Her EDP

Le Labo Thé Noir 29 EDP

Tom Ford Lost Cherry EDP

Tom Ford Lost Cherry, 30ml EDP

Like a deliciously decadent shot of cherry liqueur, this opulent fragrance combines mouth-watering black cherry and bitter almond with heady jasmine sambac and rose, and a base layer of sandalwood, vetiver and cedarwood. The result is a surprising balance of sweet, tart and floral, in other words, unexpected but utterly addictive.

Shortlist:

Kayali Yum Pistachio Gelato 33 EDP

Parfums de Marly Oriana EDP

Kilian Angels’ Share EDP

Best new fragrance 2025

Dior Miss Dior Essence EDP

Dior Miss Dior Essence, 35ml EDP

It’s a real accolade to be named best new fragrance in a year that saw so many incredible launches, but it’s clear why this nipped ahead of everyone else to pole position. A future classic in the making, the sensual combination of blackberry, elderflower, oak and jasmine is deeply feminine, yet manages to feel modern and fresh without being too powdery or sweet. Of course, given the nose behind it is Dior’s fragrance maestro and perfume creation director Francis Kurkdjian, it’s no wonder it’s such a hit.

Shortlist:

Chanel Chance Eau Splendide EDP

Miu Miu Miutine EDP

Rare Beauty Rare EDP

Rare Beauty can do no wrong as far as we – and you – are concerned, and this is an excellent example of why. Infused with notes of juicy peaches and flower blossoms, this scent is perfect for spritzing from head to toe, while the formula also contains biotin to improve hair’s integral strength and niacinamide to help soothe skin.
