Perfume that smells like marzipan/almond

Hi, I am asking on behalf of my sister.

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

Thanks in advance.

Prada Infusion D'Iris Amande is what you need.

Casmir- it is beautiful. I think its by Chopard.

Alternatively there is a perfume oil called Noora by Swiss Arabian that is really cheap and lasts forever, which I think smells even more marzipan-y than Casmir. It is brilliant.

Prada Amande is the most beautiful scent ever. I thought it was expensive in the U.K. but here in Oz it’s ridiculous.

NUXE they have a lot of products including a frangrance

@ilovecharlie

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

Another vote for Hypnotic Poison

Prada Amande but the almond note wears off super fast. Also Aveda do a Cherry Almond range in shampoo and body care.

Another vote for Lush snowcake. Literally marzipan.

I can't stand the scent of Nuxe. Is it almondy Hmm?
I also hate marzipan but love the L'occitane almond shower gel and body cream. I think it's because it's a "soft" version of almond.

TheSeedsOfADream · 08/11/2020 09:31

Prada Infusions d'Amande
Acqua di Parma do an Almond too.

AnaisB · 08/11/2020 10:24

I absolutely agree with icelollycraving - Acqua di Parma Mandorlo

It is very sweet though. I used to have it on a scarf I wore only out doors and it was heavenly to put it on in winter.

Not perfume but Aveda Cherry Almond Shampoo, Conditioner, moisturiser and hand wash would give an almond fix.

@Skyr2 I liked Gloria Vanderbilt back in the day and I’ve just bought some. It smells just like it used to. Really takes me back. But I don’t think it smells like marzipan!

MissBattleaxe · 14/06/2021 22:32

Perfume blogger here. Agree with everyone who says Hypnotic Poison. Also try Lush Frangipani which is beautifully almonds and Lush Confetti that smells like sugared almonds. If you ever see Library of Fragrance or Demeter play doh, get some
