Fruity perfumes are designed to make us feel happier – after all, there are few things more happiness-inducing than the smell (and taste) of fresh fruit! Over the years, fruity perfumes have grown-up, becoming more sophisticated, stylish and less sickly sweet. Here are a few of our favourites to spritz (whilst sipping on a spritz – Hugo or Aperol, we don’t judge) as temperatures soar this summer.
Best fruity perfume for women
Flowerbomb Extreme by Viktor & Rolf
Raspberry in perfume? Always a good idea, especially when it’s as bold and decadent as it is in Flowerbomb Extreme. This fruity fragrance amps up the drama with a juicy burst of raspberry that’s instantly attention-grabbing, layered over indulgent vanilla and timeless rose. It’s sweet, lavish, and totally addictive – think pink lipgloss, a golden hour glow, and main character energy in a bottle. If you want a fruity perfume that turns the dial all the way up, this one delivers.
Floral fruity perfume comes into its own with the deliciously unique fragrance, Daisy Wild Eau So Intense. In true Marc Jacobs style, the bottle is amazing and social-worthy in its own right, but this aromatic scent speaks for itself. The concoction is sweet, distinctive, and a truly tropical perfume thanks to notes of banana blossom and warm amber. Balanced perfectly by creamy sandalwood and captivating jasmine, this intense version of the bestselling original is sure to be your next scent of the day.
Nothing quite says summer like that first bite of a ripe, juicy peach. XO Khloé by Khloé Kardashian encapsulates that moment in a bottle. With top notes of delicate rose petals and earthy sage contrasting with velvety praline and fresh peach, you’ll be trailing the scent of summer behind you all day long. Who doesn’t want to smell addictively moreish?
Sweet, sparkling, and just a little bit addictive, raspberry shines in La Vie Est Belle L’Elixir, bringing a jammy pop of brightness to this iconic gourmand scent. Blended with warm iris, creamy vanilla, and a touch of patchouli, it’s the kind of floral fruity perfume that feels like a soft-focus filter IRL. Cozy yet luminous, this updated version is deeper, juicier, and more luxe than ever. Basically, it’s dessert… but make it designer.
Strawberry notes work so well in fruity perfume – reminding us of summer, Wimbledon fever and all those sugary sweet treats we loved when we were little (and today). In short, it’s probably one of the most uplifting scents there is! Inspired by London, Burberry Her was created to capture ‘the dynamic spirit of the city’ – and the bright berry accord of strawberries, combined with rich amber and jasmine definitely evoke the buzz of summer spent in the vibrant city.
Fresh, citrus fruity perfume gets the luxury treatment with Acqua di Giò Profondo. This ocean-inspired scent opens with zingy bergamot and green mandarin, before diving into deeper, more aromatic marine notes. It’s clean, crisp, and effortlessly cool – like diving into the Med on a scorching afternoon. One of the best fruity fragrances for men who want something classic with a twist of modern energy.
Apple is seriously underrated in the fruity fragrance world, but Stronger With You brings it into the spotlight – and trust us, it’s the core of what makes this scent so addictive. The warm and spicy profile is built around an apple accord that strikes the perfect balance between crisp and sweet, grounded by smooth vanilla, roasted chestnut, and spicy cardamom. Romantic without tipping into the territory of ‘too much’, it’s easily one of the best fruity fragrances for men who want a scent that’s both comforting and confidently fresh.
Zesty, energising, and full of punch, Boss Bottled Bold Citrus is what happens when lemon takes the lead. This citrus fruity perfume features juicy lemon primofiore at the top, bringing instant freshness that’s perfect for sunny days and high-impact first impressions. Combined with woody base notes and a masculine edge, this is a fragrance that means business (but smells like a holiday).
If you like your fruity perfume with a sharp, aromatic kick, YSL Y Intense is the one to shop. The blend of sparkling bergamot and tart juniper berries gives it that bright, slightly bitter edge that radiates confidence. Layered with amberwood and tonka bean, it’s a bold, modern scent you can spritz from the office to after-work drinks.
Grapefruit gets a spicy makeover in Spicebomb, and it works so well. This is a fresh fruity perfume that doesn’t shy away from impact – pairing zesty citrus with pepper, leather and tobacco for a fragrance that’s equal parts juicy and explosive. If you’re into tropical perfumes with a darker, masculine twist, this one definitely delivers.
