In this video I’m sharing my absolute favourite perfumes that smell like luxury shampoo — and I don’t mean your regular schmegular shower shampoo. I mean that elevated, high-end salon experience where you keep getting wafts of the gorgeous products in your hair. For me, smelling like expensive, clean, fresh, soapy shampoo is genuinely one of the best smells ever (and honestly, so attractive), so I pulled together the ones that give me that “just had my hair done” vibe the most. I start with the obvious but iconic choice, Byredo Bal d’Afrique, because it’s quintessential luxury salon vibes: citrusy, clean, creamy, a bit balmy, with vetiver and a gorgeous woodiness underneath. Then I go into clean-girl, model-off-duty territory with Histoires de Parfums This Is Not a Blue Bottle 1.2 (it literally smells like wet hair drying), plus a few “everything shower” scents like Carner Barcelona Super Moon and Vilhelm Opus Kore for that fresh, ready-for-the-day feeling. If you love fruity-clean shampoo energy, I also talk about tropical shampoo vibes with Tiziana Terenzi Cassiopea, the juicy apple-pineapple prettiness of Jeroboam Floro, the creamy pulpy fig of BORNTOSTANDOUT Fig Porn, and the airy “shampoo in fresh air” feel of Jusbox Suit of Lights. I also clocked a bit of a formula here: fruit + florals + a clean light musk underneath tends to hit that shampooy sweet spot.
