Perfume that smells of sweet peas

My favourite scent. I guess this may be more of a spring summer perfume but can anyone recommend one? Would like one which lasts all day but suitable for daytime and not too in your face :) thanks all

Does Jo Loves have a sweet pea scent?
I adore their smell too, it’s delicious.

She used to and I always thought of buying it but wanted to smell it first, now I looks like it's being discontinued! The search continues!

Bronnley HRS does a sweet pea eau de toilette. Not a complex perfume, it's old style, straight single floral, and only £18 so worth a try. You could always layer it like with Jo Malone scents if it's too basic.

Thank you, I'll have a look now :)

Yes the Jo Loves Sweet Pea is sadly discontinued, but if I were you, I'd give Jo Loves no 42 the Flowershop a go. It's beautiful and very light and petal-y, if that's a word. Also H&M Flowerscape is also a sweet pea, so give that one a try too!

Thank you both. Yes I've been looking at the flower shop one, maybe I'll give the discovery set a go.

Thanks for the link too, I have been looking at that website but had to stop after opening 30 tabs! Grin

Have you tried "Pois de senteur" by Fragonard? Inspired by sweet pea blossoms. I bought mine from M&S I think.

Splendor by Elizabeth Arden is very sweet pea as it's one of the top notes.
I wore it on my wedding day back in 2000. It was quite expensive then (more expensive than it is now) as it had only just come out.

Thanks so much, will have to hit the shops and go smell these. Or is there somewhere online that I can get samples from??

If you want speciic sweet pea samples, then try eBay. I've never been let down. Otherwise, if you want to try a lot of samples to see if something appeals, here's a post I wrote on how to get samples

That's a great post thanks! I've placed a feel unique order and will look at the others too. No sweet pea perfume samples on feel unique but plenty that sound like my sort of thing

The best sweet pea perfume to me is Miller Harris Coeur de Fleur.
It smells so authentic and wonderful . I'm not entirely sure whether it's been discontinued but it's definitely available on eBay.

Miracle by Lancome has a very light floral fragrance.

MissBattleaxe · 08/10/2019 08:19

@teta good call, but it's long gone, sadly. MH do that a LOT.
