Top 9 floral perfumes for spring 2025

Florals get a bad reputation for being too obvious. Oftentimes, they are either too sweet, too powdery, or too something you’ve smelled a thousand times. But the new wave of floral perfumes doesn’t play by those rules. They’re light but layered, soft but interesting.

What makes these scents stand out is the contrast. For example, fresh flowers paired with something unexpected, like a little spice, a cool green note, or a salty breeze. Some feel bright and airy, like walking past a blooming tree on your way to coffee. Others are warmer, deeper, more like an evening breeze through an open window.

Their common thread, though, is that they make florals feel new again.

If you’ve ever thought floral perfumes weren’t for you, this is the moment to try again. These are the scents that don’t just sit on your skin. Instead, they evolve, soften, and stay with you.

Whether you’re into minimal everyday spritzes or something with more depth for night, there’s a floral waiting to surprise you this spring.
