Perfume that smells like marzipan/almond

[ilovecharlie]

Hi, I am asking on behalf of my sister.

Are there any perfumes or body sprays that smell like marzipan/almonds?

Thanks in advance.

Following :)

Ooohhhh I'd love to know this too

I'm wearing Dior Addict today which has an almond and vanilla smell. A little goes a long way

I would not say that Dior Addict is in the least bit marzipanny, vanilla yes and maybe rose ish but I don't get almond/marzipan from it at all

I would love a proper marzipan amaretto style fragrance.

Not perfume, but aveeno lotion oil smells like marzipan. www.aveeno.co.uk/products/daily-moisturising-creamy-oil

I remember my mum using Vidal Sassoon shampoo back in the 80's. That was really marzipanny, mum would hide it from us girls 😁

Totally underrated and I adored it.

Laura mercia - coconut and almonds

Lush do their snowcake fragrance in perfume which smells just like marzipan

Tom Ford Lost Cherry has a lovely almond undertone

I love that stuff....but it could do with a bit more oomph!

You have just reminded me though I have the almond L'occitance shower oil stashed away in the bathroom, using that and the Aveeno is a nice soft scent. I had to hide it last time my mother was up because the time before she used the last INCH AND A HALF and said, "your shower gel smells nice but it doesn't lather up properly, I swished the bottle out"

I'd love to find one, particularly if it didn't smell of vanilla too which I hate. I love L'Occitane Almond range but they don't do a perfume.

Library of Fragrance do an Almond one which could work!

I have this and don't find it at all almondy, that would be like walking around smelling of a Bakewell tart

The only one of my perfumes that I think smells of almond is angel muse. It's not listed as almond in that link to fragrantica that a PP has kindly posted, but it's very nutty to my nose. It's gorgeous

Method wood cleaner smells of marzipan but I wouldn't recommend that as a perfume

Caron Farnesiana maybe?

Hypnotic Poison absolutely smells of marzipan! Perfume Parlour do a perfect dupe of it.

Don’t know if it exists any more but Vanderbilt perfume used to smell like marzipan ( perfume in 80’s) your post has just reminded me about it.

Just looked you can still buy it and it’s really inexpensive, I might get some for nostalgia sake !

Hugo boss pure purple I think

I recently bought a bottle of Lou Lou for nostalgia sake. Oh my god it is awful, smells nothing like the original. I didn't recognise it at all. It is just like the Tweed perfume that my Nan used to wear. Vile 😄

Di Paloma - Black Cherry Almond. I have their bath foam and wash right now and oh, it's delicious! They have a perfume too. I think it's sold out on amazon right now, but you can likely find it elsewhere on the net.

I got one in France and you can buy it online. I've just moved house so cant lay my hands on the bottle this minute, but ill come back here if I do.

Nina Ricci used to do a lovely almond one, Les Belles Amour D'amandier. Not much use now though, sorry!
