Spring hasn’t sprung just yet here at Bentley, but there is no better way to get in the spirit and sooth those winter blues than a new perfume. From floral fragrances to relaxing aromas, a new perfume could be your best spring accessory. Here are a few of my favorite scents to get heads (and noses!) turning this spring, and they can all be found at Sephora.
La Vie Est Belle
Lancôme
La Vie Est Belle, or “Life is Beautiful,” smells just like it sounds. It’s just the right amount of sweet without being overpowering. It has a distinct scent that is fresh, feminine, and a little bit powdery, perfect for adding some subtle sophistication to your ensemble.

Parfum D’Extase
Marchesa
Parfum D’Extase by Marchesa is this collegiette’s favorite spring perfume. It’s more playful than its Lancôme counterpart, with a more floral, breezy scent, perfect for sunshine and warm weather. With a fresh, powdery base veiled by sweet flowers, Parfum D’Extase is guaranteed to give your day a boost.
Too Too Pretty
Betsey Johnson
Too Too Pretty by Betsey Johnson is more fruity than musky, with a sweet rather than powdery base. It’s floral and fun – just take a look at the bottle! – Not to mention light and clean. Too Too Pretty is perfect for a date, a night out with friends, or for just feeling pretty in the spring weather.

CANDY
Prada
Candy by Prada is aptly named, and definitely the sweetest of the perfumes on the list. It reminds me of the Cow Tales candy, in the best way of course. It’s caramel and vanilla scent is light and sweet, the perfect fragrance to pick you up after a long day. Candy is definitely the most unique perfume on the list, with a yummy aroma that will certainly catch some attention.
Poppy
COACH
Poppy by COACH is the most flowery and playful of the bunch, perfect for spring. This scent is feminine and fun, but won’t asphyxiate your fellow collegiettes. Poppy is perfect for any occasion, and will make it feel like spring all year round.
