Matcha! Pistachio! Pear! The year 2025 is all about vibrant green fragrances, so I put together a shopping guide.

      In 2025, the fashion scene is moving away from classic fragrance notes such as floral and vanilla to embrace scents that are brighter, fresher, and more environmentally friendly. Lush, spring-like aromas are currently in vogue, with the top three scent profiles resembling something you might find on a café menu: matcha, pistachio, and pear. These fresh, gourmet fragrances feel far from cheesy; instead, they exude a distinct elegance. Matcha perfumes offer a fresh and serene aroma reminiscent of your morning matcha latte. Pistachio fragrances present a vibrant, creamy, and enticing quality akin to pistachio gelato. Meanwhile, pear perfumes are sweet, subtle, and juicy, reminiscent of biting into the season's first ripe pear. Below, discover 15 of the best editor-approved selections to enhance your fragrance collection.

      Le Labo

      Thé Matcha 26 Eau de Parfum

      Notes: Fig, bergamot, bitter orange, sesame, cedarwood, vetiver, matcha tea accord. Le Labo's Thé Matcha 26 embodies a "your-skin-but-better" fragrance that honors the rich history of matcha in Japanese culture. The brand hopes to inspire "a moment of introspection" for its wearers, and it truly achieves this. The scent opens with a creamy fig note (which is why fans of Phlur's Father Figure Eau de Parfum will likely enjoy it) and transitions into a grounding mixture of vetiver and cedarwood, complemented by an uplifting hint of bitter orange. It encapsulates self-care in a bottle.

      Bulgari

      Au Thé Vert Eau de Cologne

      Notes: Green tea, Italian bergamot, beeswax, tonka bean. Launched in the 1990s, this designer fragrance focuses on the green, herbal aroma of green tea. Italian bergamot adds a citrus sparkle, while creamy tonka bean contributes a warm, grounding note. To me, this scent evokes the sensation of a hot matcha latte garnished with orange zest, with steam swirling upward.

      Maison Margiela

      Replica Matcha Meditation Eau de Toilette

      Notes: Bergamot, mandarin, green tea accord, orange flower, jasmine, matcha accord, benzoin, moss, white chocolate. Floral fragrance enthusiasts will appreciate this reinterpretation of matcha. The combination of bergamot, orange flower, and jasmine produces a sweet, delicate scent anchored by earthy green tea and matcha accord. Inspired by a sunlit afternoon meditation, this fragrance encourages mindfulness, inviting stillness and tranquility.

      Matcha Cloud Eau de Parfum

      Notes: Matcha, white chocolate, toasted pistachio, whipped cream, vanilla bean, honey caramel. A true gourmand, this sweet matcha fragrance is infused with the effortlessly chic note of pistachio, creating an earthy, nutty profile. The addition of white chocolate, whipped cream, vanilla bean, and honey caramel gives it a dessert-like aroma, bottled.

This scent features the nutty note at every level—top, middle, and base. Originally created in a limited run of just 100 bottles, the enthusiastic reception led to it being added to the permanent collection. It’s sweet and bold—a fragrance for true pistachio aficionados.

      Kayali

      Yum Pistachio Gelato 33 Eau de Parfum Intense

      Notes: Pistachio gelato, hazelnut, rum, cotton candy, whipped cream. Each time I wear this perfume, it takes me back to my trip to Rome, where a charming gelato shop near my Airbnb served the best pistachio flavor. Interestingly, Kayali's founder had a similar experience which inspired this fragrance. The main pistachio gelato note is clear, while the hazelnut recalls the waffle cone I enjoyed, and the rum evokes the warm sun on my shoulders. The cotton candy and whipped cream notes are the perfect finishing touches, whisking me back to the vibrant streets of Rome.

      Green Tea Pistachio Crunch Eau de Toilette
