The 10 Most Romantic Fragrances of All Time

According to Jan, this Calvin Klein fragrance is for the eternal romantic, with notes of jasmine and peony and elements of musk. 

"Musks are an important ingredient," says Jan. "They help bring an echo to the floralcy, and add a less innocent dimension."

Jan categorizes this Narcisco Rodriguez fragrance as "the beautiful new interpretation of a musky rose peony." The notes of rose and peach pulp start the fragrance off light, while amber and woody give it a spicy finish.

A perfectly balanced myriad of rose, orchid, and freesia flowers are the highlights of this beloved juice that has captured the hearts of thousands.

"Romantic fragrances are often built around a floral bouquet or a single flower like rose," says Jan. "This kind of fragrance tends to connect with your emotions."

This new addition by Chloé, which includes jasmine and orange blossom notes, has an undeniable elegance that has solidified it as a must-have fragrance throughout the ages.
