The Best Spring & Summer Perfumes Under $100

If you were wondering what the best spring and summer perfumes under $100 were —

I have you covered.

This has taken much research.

I tested some for one entire summer of trial and error that I will mention, and I think I can speak boldly and say that I have some fragrances to share.

Fragrance is very personal.

What you may like as a fragrance, others may not (& vice-versa).

Spring Fragrances

I will start with the best of Spring with Fine’ry (a brand sold at Target).

If you are a middle of the road, masculine meets feminine scent lover like myself. This one is for you.

Fine’ry has a perfume and also a body spray called ‘I’m a Musk.‘

When I first saw the name, I laughed. Who wants to smell like a “musk?” In my head, I just imagined a muskrat. Idk.

Turns out this scent is as addictive as ever.

You won’t be able to put your nose on exactly what it is on your first drink of the smell.

Some claim it makes them smell like pickles. I love pickles, but this scent is a marshmallowy, clean, bright, and muddied scent.

It’s as if you’re wearing your significant other’s sweatshirt that is being mixed with some of your own fragrance. It’s just divine.

I haven’t heard that this particular scent is a dupe. I think it’s a Fine’ry original.

Don’t sleep on this one.

A Gourmand Lover’s Staple That Hits Different

The next is “Pistachio Please.”

As a non-gourmand girlie — this one got me, and it got me good.

It’s not as if I don’t smell the gourmand — it’s because this particular blend hits earthy tones with the pistachio scent.

I find a lot of the sweeter scents are too whimsically cloudy and strong. This is a middle-of-the-road scent.

When looking into the dupe’s origins, I found that this $30 perfume was what I would prefer (over the original scents) because the other two scents are less pistachio and more gourmand original.

‘Pistachio Please’ is a dupe of Kay Ali’s Pistachio scent, ‘Pistachio Gelato 33,’ and also Sol De Jeneiro’s scent, ‘Cheirosa 62.’

Lovers of both scents either agree or disagree.

I think with this, even if it’s similar, it isn’t too sweet. It has a sexy undertone that isn’t asking you to smell it against your will.

It’s just a treat to smell.

You have to try it.

Spring & Summer Scents Under $100

These scents can be worn in hot weather and during the spring and fall.

They spread out their scent to a pleasing note no matter the heat.

They are up for the temperature to take a hike or to take a dip.

We love a versatile scent.

Platinum Rush by Paris Hilton

People rave about Paris Hilton fragrances.

I am a longtime fan of Paris Hilton and had to give her perfumes a try.

To decide what perfume I should get — I took a quiz and was directed to get ‘Platinum Rush.’

I love it.

It reminds me of my mom’s Versace perfume but has a unique quality to it (making it a scent all its own).

Paris Hilton fragrances give fashion house fragrances a run for their money, and I love it.

What I love about this scent is how you can smell the pear (but also the floral influence). It’s a sexy perfume, for sure.

In one word, I would say it is intoxicating (and lasts all day).

This scent is going to expand into a really beautiful and earthy scent with a hint of floral in the heat. Platinum Rush will be lovely during all seasons.

Philosophy’s Magnolia

This scent is my hot summer day, soft spring day, dependable scent. 

I wore this all last summer.

It truly lasts all day.

It’s just a good crisp basic scent to have.

Like a great pair of jeans.

I also loved ‘Ballet Rose’ from the ‘Amazing Grace’ Line as well.

Final Summer Scent ‘Flower Bed’ — The $30 Chanel Dupe of Chance

‘Flower Bed‘ has me ready to head to Chanel’s fragrance counter.

Why? If this is a dupe? What does the original smell like.

I can’t tell if I go nose blind with this scent, but damn …. I want to smell this more.

The previous scents last all day long on me.

This particular one smells like a dream.

When I wear this scent I get the most compliments.

So, it has to be good, right?

It really is a beautiful scent. It’s just a perky, spring-like, frolic in the meadows, youthful, and free-spirited kind-of scent.

Absolutely stunning for $30.

Well, that is it for the under $100 perfumes for Spring and Summer. However, I would love to go into the more expensive scents that I also enjoy.

These were ones I got a bit more experimental on, and I am glad I did.

Let me know if you wear these scents, have tried them, or are about to try them.
