“Perfume is a memory that does not fail.” Pierre Cardin.
A perfume is associated with different recollections. Like a song, it can instantly bring you back to a moment, a feeling, or a memory of where you were when you wore it. When you try a new perfume, you are trying an odor with no associations, allowing you to make new ones and write new emotional memories. That is precisely why you need a unique fragrance for your wedding – to be returned to the perfect big day you shared with your spouse, family, and friends, whenever you catch a whiff of the fragrance.
So, we have put together the best 10 wedding perfumes for any bridal style. Furthermore, to more accurately convey our impressions and give you more inspiration for creating your wedding look, we have opted 4 dresses that can go well with them. So, no matter your particular tastes, we are sure you can find something that suits you. Read on for more.

THOO – Live In Colours

A lemon-grapefruit refreshing spiced cocktail you’re sipping in the shadow of the hinoki. A happy scent to wear in warmer months (preferably). The name of the fragrance speaks for itself.

Byredo – Blanche
Accords: fresh, aldehydic, floral
Character: clean, airy, delicate
Imagine a morning of preparation at a hotel. You rise from a soft bed with clean, freshly washed, ironed sheets.
You take a refreshing shower with a floral body wash and put on a perfect white robe.
Your mysterious, airy, elegant nature will choose a snow-white textured dress for your big day. The fragrance will live with you. You will feel how the aldehyde cushion softens with delicate roses, turning into a dance of sandalwood and musk in the base.

Maison Francis Kurkdjian – Petit Matin
Accords: citrus, aromatic, lavander
Character: sunny, playful, uplifting
Petit Matin is an invitation to throw oneself into the excitement of the big day ahead.
Imagine the delicious freshness of an early morning of your special day. The windows are open. A light breeze carries the scent of lemon and lavender into your room. Deep breath and be renewed with the beauty of life. Feel like a vibrant, sparkling French woman who can be daring as lemon juice.
MFK perfumes can have a harsh chemical note in them. But if you spray it judiciously, you’ll absolutely enjoy it and can’t stop smelling your skin!
Match this fragrance with light, flowing textures, pleating, or a high-halter dress. Consider whimsical details or accessories.

Pierre Guillaume – Jangala
Accords: warm spicy, milky, woody
Character: exotic, hot, tart
This woody, the aromatic composition will fit perfectly into a tropical or coastal setting.
The perfumer, Pierre Guillaume, was inspired by the moist jungle air with eucalyptus leaves around. But for us, this is the coast and ocean without driving towards the aquatic and freshness. So you can test it and see what it feels like.
Hot sand mixes with spices, salted seaweed, and sweet coconut milk in an exotic place. It gives a feeling of sticky salty-sweet moisture on the skin. And the air is quite dense, warm, steamy, and ozone-laced.
Consider romantic sleeves and floral lace. Or think about open arms and shoulders as they might fit the setting.

Laboratorio Olfattivo – Need_U
Accords: marine, white floral, aromatic
Character: subtle, romantic, breezy
Imagine one of Claude Monet’s beautiful water lilies painting. The most sparkling, with a predominance of dark green and blue tones. Replace water lilies with a scattering of white flowers. And drain the pond and fill it with sea notes. The florals add depth to the fragrance while maintaining its aquatic essence. It’s time to dive into this fresh aquatic floral scent.
I need you, Need_U. The perfume needs skin to express itself, to tell its intentions and feelings.
Now get out and use a soft, delicate musk towel. And then wear the most dreamy, whimsical, or romantic gown and shine bright!

Jo Malone – Wood Sage & Sea Salt
Accords: aromatic, salty, musky
Character: lively, spirited, joyful
“Wood Sage & Sea Salt Cologne was created with the intention to evoke the feeling of pleasure, freedom and escape into nature, inspired by the unique character and quality of British beach.”
Sea air is mixed with the mineral texture of sand and stones. A complex combination of wood and sea is in its essence.
Perfect for naturally sophisticated, wild-spirited brides who dream about elopement.
Laurent Mazzone Parfums – Sensual Orchid
Accords: floral, sweet, creamy
Character: seductive, sensual, intimate
The orchid accord always sounds very feminine. This floral fragrance is quite simple but clean, charming, and delicate. There are too many noisy flowers or pushy white flowers. And here, the notes blended harmoniously, like a tender spring bouquet in your beautiful arms.
Pair it with the same simple but sophisticated, maybe a little teasing silhouette.
Acqua di Parma – Mandorlo di Sicilia
Accords: almond, vanilla, powdery
Character: warm, comforting, inviting
It is a straight-up delicious, true gourmand, delicate scent. It smells like a spiced almond cookie in your favorite little Italian bakery.
Natural sweet almond, vanilla, anise, and citrus – the notes are blended that way to create, on the one hand, a fresh and uplifting and, on the other hand, warm and cozy feeling. Well-balanced! It’s really comforting when you plan to have a delightful, long day. It can last quite a while against the skin, but if you want to add sillage, just apply more.
Get inspired by Italian dolce vita and desserts. Pay attention to dresses in warm colors and small or voluminous dreamy details.
