While copping your favorite celebrity’s red carpet look may cost you a significant amount of money, stealing their signature smell isn’t quite as unattainable. I did the the research and dug up 30* of our favorite celebrity’s favorite fragrances—many of them are available on Amazon, and most are under $200 (not bad, especially if you use sparingly, and more expensive scents go a long way). See my favorite picks, below.
*Hillary Duff’s favorite The Goddess Line Parvati Roll On Fragrance was out of stock when we published, but it’s back in at Amazon for now! She said she loves it because it smells like vanilla (yum!).
1. Beyoncé
I’m dangerously in love with Beyoncé’s fragrance of choice. The Texas Hold ‘Em singer stocked up on Angel’s Share by Kilian at Harrods beauty hall after hours when she was touring in London. The scent combines fruit notes, vanilla and sandalwood, making for a smooth and highly intoxicating scent.
2. Usher
Make it smell like love in the club, with Usher’s go-to cologne: Creed Absolu Aventus. According to Vogue, the My Boo singer loves the fragrance so much that the brand’s CEO sent him home with a vial after having dinner together. It’s a warm and spicy scent, so we aren’t surprised it enticed the notoriously smooth R&B star.
3. Taylor Swift
While Taylor Swift is a widely acclaimed performer, she also seemingly has good taste in scents! Like John Legend lower down, the Bad Blood singer is a big fan of Tom Ford’s fragrances — specifically Santal Blush. It’s woody and earthy, so people who love a musky scent can definitely get behind it.
4. Leonardo DiCaprio
It seems as though the Wolf of Wall Street smells quite nice — and really — are you surprised? Per GQ India, Leonardo DiCaprio uses the expensive yet tantalizing Annick Goutal Eau D’Hadrien. It’s citrusy and woody, making for a fresh, clean scent that will leave you wanting more.
5. Hailey Bieber
When she isn’t modeling or adding skincare product to her brand, Hailey Bieber is basking in the smell of jasmine and peonies. Her signature scent is Ex Nihilo’s Fleur Narcotique.
It’s the scent that I’ve actually been wearing for a few years and I find myself always going back to.”
6. Ryan Reynolds
Of course the king of cool always smells 10 out of 10. According to the same GQ India as Leonardo DiCaprio, Deadpool actor Ryan Reynolds is a fan of Labo Patchouli 24, because it combines masculine musky scents with lighter tones of vanilla and birch.
7. Michael B. Jordan
Even though Michael B. Jordan was profusely sweating for nearly the entire duration of the Creed trilogy, the movie star smells nothing like body odor off-set. His go-to fragrance is Coach For Men because of its earthy scent that has noticeable depth.
8. Gracie Abrams
Singer-songwriter Gracie Abrams has gained prominence for her pop folk music, but we also appreciate her taste in fragrances. According to The Strategist she has a soft spot for Diptyque Olene Eau de Toilette because it reminds her of “walking through a garden at night.” Aww.
9. Lil Nas X
Lil Nas X’s obsession with beauty comes a love for fragrances, according to Byrdie. He has an entire collection, but he’s recently been loving Yves St. Laurent’s MYSLF.
I have explored a few different types of scents over the years, but MYSLF is my new staple. I love the woody, vanilla and spicy notes.
10. Adele
Just like many of us have loved Adele since her breakthrough, Adele has loved Dior Hypnotic Poison since she was a teen, according to the same Harper’s Bazaar article as Beyoncé. It smells of amber and vanilla, making for a sexy yet soft presence — just like the British singer’s music.
11. Dwayne The Rock Johnson
While filming Baywatch, wrestler-turned-actor Dwayne Johnson wore Kenzo pour Homme to get into the character of Mitch. But evidently, he really likes it because it reminds him of the outdoors and being by the water. “It wasn’t a complicated smell,” he told the magazine.
12. Olivia Rodrigo
Even though it’s a major splurge, Maison Francis Kurkdjian Baccarat Rouge is a scent that pop singer Olivia Rodrigo simply “can’t live without.” It’s subtle but floral and beautiful, so it makes sense why she enjoys it so much.
13. Victoria Beckham
You may have to pay a pretty penny to smell like Victoria Beckham. But after all, she is Posh Spice. According to Glam, the pop star generally wears a scent called Vilhelm Parfumerie Room Service. It smells like a mix of florals, fruits and sandalwood — making for a luxurious, Spice World-worthy fragrance.
14. Sydney Sweeney
Although Sydney Sweeney’s style tends to be, well, va-va-voom, her go-to scent is Marc Jacobs Daisy, thanks to its subtlety. It combines notes of strawberries and violet leaves, making for an ultra feminine fragrance.
15. Ryan Gosling
Of course heartthrob Ryan Gosling smells amazing. Would you expect anything less from Ken himself? The same GQ India that highlighted Leonardo DiCaprio’s scent of choice listed Reynolds’ favorite fragrance as Dior Homme, which has a loyal cult following in the fashion world. It smells like leather, florals and wood, with light notes of herbs and flowers. Ahhh.
16. Rihanna
Rihanna is best known for her soulful pop music, as well as her iconic fashion and beauty lines, but she’s also famous for smelling incredible. Her scent of choice is Kilian’s Love, Don’t Be Shy, which smells like vanilla and orange, so shut up and drive to your nearest mall (or TBH just order online).
17. Snoop Dogg
After gaining viral popularity on TikTok, it comes as no surprise that celebs have are loving Parfums de Marly Delina Eau de Parfum — and that includes rapper Snoop Dogg. He even included the notoriously floral scent as an essential in his Olympic tote.
18. Drew Barrymore
Like Ryan Reynolds, Drew Barrymore also gravitates to the calming and nostalgic smell of patchouli with Triloka Pathchouli Perfume Oil. And with a down-to-earth person like her, are you surprised? According to Yahoo! Life she “feels her best” when she dabs it on her place and neck. It’s a subtle scent, but it makes her feel luxurious.
19. Ashton Kutcher
Actor and entrepreneur Ashton Kutcher keeps it classy on and off-screen and has an affinity for fragrances. He’s been known to wear Lanvin’s Eclat D’Arpege Pour Homme, which combines notes of dry pepper with warm jasmine and iris.
20. Winnie Harlow
Canadian model Winnie Harlow opts for a balance of fragrances — specifically including Maison Francis Kurkdjian Paris Aqua Universalis Eau de Toilette. According to The Strategist, she likes it because it’s nice and light. And she likes to layer it with muskier scents.
21. John Legend
With great music comes a lovely fragrance. John Legend is an avid fan of Tom Ford, he said in an interview with New York Magazine. Evidently, he has been using Tom Ford Black Orchid exclusively for years — which makes sense for the famously sophisticated R&B singer.
I literally will only wear this every day…I just like the way I feel when I wear it.
22. Miley Cyrus
Singer and actor Miley Cyrus is particularly connected to nature and spirituality, which is why she loves Gucci Flora Gorgeous Gardenia.
“[When I smell this perfume] I think… of my garden at home, which is unruly and free,” she said in an interview with British Vogue. “It represents my spirit. It’s important to allow nature to be its truest, most authentic, magical self, and that’s what I embody when I’m wearing Flora.”
23. Tom Hardy
Even though actor Tom Hardy is an ambassador for Cypress & Grapevine Cologne Intense, it seems as though he genuinely loves the product. According to British Vogue, he is absolutely obsessed with Jo Malone and can’t live without it.
“To me, this scent has this wonderfully classic, vintage and earthy scent,” he said in an interview. “A lot of people who have smelt it on me have asked what it is.”
24. Katy Perry
Baby you’re a firework, especially when you’re wearing Dolce & Gabbana’s Devotion Eau de Parfum. In a 2023 interview with Who What Wear, Katy Perry called the scent “the yummiest,” mixing vanilla and citrus.
25. Mario Lopez
Longtime actor Mario Lopez considers himself to be a “big cologne connoisseur,” he said in an interview with Good Housekeeping. He really likes the Creed Inspiration Kit, an elegant scent that has notes of bergamot, citrus and musk. And although he has a big bottle at home, he loves the travel sizes for when he’s on-the-go.
26. Ayo Edebiri
In an interview with The Face, The Bear actor Ayo Edebiri says she likes switching up her scent every once in a while. However, she recently discovered Dior J’adore, and enjoys how sweet and clean it is.
27. Brad Pitt
We’ve all wondered what Once Upon a Time in Hollywood actor Brad Pitt smells like, and according to Beauti Now, it’s Lorenzo Villoresi Musk. The scent blends white musk, rose, jasmine, amber and sandalwood. It’s both suave and charming — just like him.
28. Naomi Campbell
Supermodel Naomi Campbell gravitates towards lingering floral scents says The Glossary Magazine, and likes Dior Diorissimo.
I love florals, florals that linger and that’s what lily-of-the-valley does. It lingers all night long.
29. Kwame Onwuachi
Kwame Onwuachi, Top Chef winner and owner of New York City’s famous Tatiana restaurant smells like so much more than the delicious food he prepares. According to The Strategist, he discovered Hugo Boss The Scent Eau de Toilette at the airport en route to Hong Kong, and has used it ever since, thanks to its warm spiciness and masculine energy.
30. Emilia Clarke
Yes, the Mother of Dragons wears perfume, just like us. Emilia Clarke told Condé Nast Traveler that she never forgets her bottle of musky-floral Le Labo Santal 33 Eau de Parfum when packing for vacation. To that, we bend the knee.
