5 Best Smelling Katy Perry Perfumes

Katy Perry has been putting out hits, in the music arena for over a decade now. So, like many other celebrities and pop singers, she moved into other branding opportunities. Most notably, the world of perfumes, with which she has enjoyed a lot of success. Some stars, never get beyond a few releases, but Katy has stacked up plenty of them.

In this post, I am going to give my opinion, on what the five best smelling fragrances that she has released up to this point in time. Update: No new scents have been released since 2018, so it may be done completely. I’ll continue to update as needed.

Favorite Fragrances by Katy Perry

Fruity Floral for Summer

Katy Perry Mad Love Eau de Parfum Spray for Women, 3.4 Ounce– This one didn’t seem to generate quite the same level of popularity, as the other fragrances on the list. But, it is still quite a nice gem.

It is a sweet and fruity perfume, with a coconut/strawberry blend sitting on top of a creamy undertone. It actually shares some overlap with the earlier Ariana Grande perfumes such as, Sweet Like Candy. Though, I like that one more than Mad Love (this is a lower price, however)

Then, there is a light and crisp apple. Hints of floral notes, emerge during the dry down, but this is mostly a fruity affair.

Good warm weather fragrance, for the price, with solid performance.

Youthful Styled Perfume

Katy Perry Meow Eau De Parfum Spray for Women, 3.4 Ounce– Meow opens up with pear and tangerine citrus, which is quickly joined by a wonderful vanilla. This one is definitely a youthful and sweet sort of fragrance, so, don’t expect something refined and ‘grown up’.

However, in its innocent sweetness, Meow is still utterly enjoyable. It’s light and pleasant, with a bit of musk, but an overall sweet and creamy profile. This is probably the best bet, for the younger set from Katy Perry.

The vanilla is the strongest note here. I enjoy the sparkling pear note up top and that lovely citrus touch. What’s also good, is that I can pick up on the individual floral notes at different times in the wear.

So, it’s not just a generic floral aroma. Honeysuckle, jasmine, and gardenia actually show up and are distinct. Meow Full Review

Sweet Gourmand

Katy Perry Killer Queen Eau de Parfum Spray for Women, 3.4 Ounce– You get a sweet gourmet top, with praline and fruits, mostly its berries. However, there is a light citrus aroma at the start, from bergamot.

While this is another sweet scent, Killer Queen, adds in a solid bit of patchouli to rough things up a bit. It’s still sweet and girly, but the patchouli note and some jasmine, gives it more maturity than something like Meow.

But, the floral notes are lighter in this one. While that one is more bright, creamy, and sweet. This is dark and fruity sweet.

Killer Queen does bear some resemblance to Flowerbomb, while not being fully the same. You get a very similar style, some of the same aromas, just at a much lower price.

Most Popular Katy Perry Perfume

Kate Perry Purr Eau De Parfum Spray for Women, 3.4 Ounce– Purr is still the most popular of this line of perfumes, after almost ten years, or so. It opens up with apple and peach, with some floral notes and coconut, also peaking through.

Apple really pops out after the initial spray and takes that early lead. But, peach will be the stronger note, once that apple quickly wears off.

As it dries down, it becomes a bit more floral, but still retains a tropical coconut vibe with some vanilla creaminess.

Purr also contains a really interesting bamboo note, which pairs with gardenia. Ultimately, it’s about the peach, coconut, bamboo, and gardenia. Less of the bamboo versus the other notes. Clean and light scent. My Review of Purr

Underrated Perry Fragrance

Katy Perry Royal Revolution Eue de Parfum Spray for Women, 3.4 Ounce– Royal Revolution feature pomegranate and blackthorn, which looks like a blueberry, but has a more tart aroma and taste.

Those two notes combine, to give this a candy-like fruitiness, but the dry down features more patchouli and creaminess. Fresh and fruity up top, with a general woody/floral/sweet finish.

There is just enough freshness and a slight spice to not let Royal Revolution get bogged down. It’s actually a fairly light sillage for this style of perfume. Pretty close to RiRi by Rihanna, in terms of style, just not the exact same scent.

With vanilla orchid and freesia, this one has enough unique notes, to set it apart from the rest of the scents on this list. Juicy, warm, and then floral and woody.
