2025 is definitely the year of gourmand fragrances. From pistachio and coffee to caramel and brioche, scents that smell good enough to eat are stealing the spotlight. Why? Because in uncertain times, we crave comfort, and what’s more comforting than the aroma of something delicious?
According to Forbes, gourmand perfume launches have surged as consumers look for small daily joys. These scents deliver nostalgia and indulgence in one spritz evoking childhood treats and café moments, but always in a grown-up, sophisticated way.
Jousset Parfums, the world’s first Ultra-Gourmand perfume house was founded in 2020 by perfumer Jimmy Bodin with handcrafted fragrances that blur the line between scent and dessert. One of my new indulgences? Ciao Bello Pistachio. A pistachio dream wrapped in buttery sweetness.
It opens with pistachio spread cream and vanilla macaron crumbs. Creamy, nutty, and instantly addictive. In the heart you’ll find waffle batter, almond paste, and vanilla blossom. Warm and comforting like a lazy Sunday morning. Finally, the base lingers with brioche filled with pistachio ice cream, leaving behind a rich pistachio trail.
So next time you crave a little dolce vita, skip the pastry counter and spritz Ciao Bello Pistachio. It’s Italy in a bottle. No boarding pass required. (50 ML | €129)
