For me, a perfume isn’t just about the fragrance. It is about the vibe, the mood it creates, and the memories attached to it! On any day, I am not a fan of insanely strong perfumes that literally slap you with their fragrances. Bold scents may suit big events, but they are not my go-to.
My kind of perfumes don’t scream for attention and can be worn every day, at work and otherwise. They have a soft fragrance that is comforting and ideal for daily use! My perfume vibe is soothing, easygoing, and mild! Lately, I have added a few of these soothing perfumes to my collection. These last long and have a classy, gentle fragrance that’s comforting. My go-to scent is a mix of floral, aqua, and citrusy hues. The product picks listed here can be worn for special occasions, to work, and on an everyday basis.
My top picks: soothing perfumes for women

If I could blend warmth and peace in a bottle, it would smell like the Serenity Extrait de Parfum. It gives off an elevated vibe that is still calm and elegant. Think of a deep exhale after a long workout or of lavender fields! This is the energy of its scent. This perfume is infused with ingredients that elevate your mood and give out a serene goddess energy!
Let’s break the fragrance of the perfume. When it first hit me, I felt it oozing the scent of mandarin orange and lavender. It gives a soft and citrusy fragrance at first. After a few minutes, it smells like orchids or jasmine sambac. The fragrance starts to progress from citrusy to floral. I love the fact that the perfume doesn’t blast your senses like a flower bomb! It gives out a feminine and soft smell, the kind you feel while walking through a flower garden on a dewy morning!
Let’s talk about its base. It's top-notch iconic! It is infused with Madagascar vanilla, tonka bean, ambergris, and vetiver. The scent of the perfume feels like a blanket for my soul. I use it before stepping out for work. I still smell fresh for a good 10 hours! Though I carry a bottle in my workbag, I hardly reapply the scent! It's super long-lasting.

This is totally recommended for big events and on days when I want to feel like a boss! It gives the much-required “main-character energy.”
The first time I tried the scent, I could feel floral and citrusy notes like a blend of green apples, peaches, and mandarin. The smell progressed into a more floral hue. This perfume gives out the vibe of walking through a floral garden. With time, it gives out a sandalwood scent that is mild and just enough to keep me charged and going! This floral perfume whispers class. Though soothing, the scent has enough character to keep me hooked on a dinner date or a special occasion! I can easily wear it for professional and personal occasions! It is a perfect mix of soft elegance and feminine boss-baby vibes! The best part is that it stays for hours!
