Fruity gourmand perfumes smell like fruit dessert: juicy berries, peach or apple over vanilla, caramel or cream. 2,700+ perfumes on Scendira combine fruity and gourmand accords, and prices run from about $5 to $1,755.
A fruity accord brings juice and sparkle, and a gourmand accord brings sugar, cream and baked-goods warmth. Perfumers balance them so the fruit stays bright over a sweet base, as in a tart or a fruit compote.
Perfumes people discuss in the communities Scendira tracks include Ariana Grande Ari, Snif Tart Deco and Britney Spears Prerogative. Ari pairs raspberry and pear with marshmallow, Tart Deco pairs black cherry and raspberry with vanilla, and Prerogative pairs apricot nectar with an espresso heart.
Suits: People who like fruit-dessert sweetness. Skip if: fruit with a dessert-like sweetness reads sticky on you.
For the wider family, see fruity perfumes. Neighbouring notes worth a look: sweet fruity perfumes and fruity vanilla perfumes.

Juicy fruit over sugar, cream or caramel, like a fruit dessert.
It carries both a fruity and a gourmand accord, so juicy fruit sits above an edible, dessert-like base.
Raspberry and pear over marshmallow in Ariana Grande Ari, black cherry and raspberry over vanilla in Snif Tart Deco, and apricot nectar and goji berry above an espresso heart in Britney Spears Prerogative.
