9 Perfumes Similar to Gucci Bloom

Gucci Bloom has become a very popular fragrance since its release in 2017. Bloom has in a short period of time spawned a number of flanker perfumes bearing its name. When something achieves this sort of status in the fragrance world, people will no doubt be looking for similar smells, styles, or just cheaper alternatives to the best seller.

In this post, I want to present nine perfume options that can serve as alternative scents to Gucci Bloom.  Some will be inspired by Bloom, while others are just going to have similarities in style.

What Fragrances Smell Similar of Gucci Bloom?

Inexpensive Option

Floral Honeysuckle by Dossier– So far this is the only ‘inspired’ aroma of Bloom that I’ve found (update: the one below, too) and it runs $39 per bottle (as of publishing). It is a cheaper cost versus a bottle of the real thing from Gucci.

Now, I haven’t tried this one in particular out yet. Dossier usually has some very good renditions of popular scents and it shouldn’t be too difficult to match the aroma of Gucci Bloom, since it’s not overly complicated. Plus, the reviews seem to be overwhelming positive.

Second Inspiration

Jasmine Blossom by Oakcha– Here’s the second ‘inspired by’ perfume that I’ve found of Bloom. This one is by the brand Oakcha which describes it thusly, “It’s like a breath of fresh springtime. As you walk among the blooming flowers, you can’t help but feel uplifted.”

The notes are the same as the Gucci and the formula is an Extrait de Parfum strength, which hopefully gives it some extra staying power. Also, an affordable price, with sample sets available, if you’d want to try some of the other fragrances that they have.

Appears to be a good value and I’ve read positive things about the brand. So, maybe worth a try if you want an attempt at matching the Gucci formula, as close as possible.

Best Cheap Alternative

Kim Kardashian for Women By Kardashian Edp Spray, 3.4 Ounce– This is a fragrance for floral loves, as it is highlighted by gardenia and tuberose. Kim Kardashian for Women, is a very pretty, upbeat, and feminine fragrance. It mostly the white floral notes with a creamy and slightly woody undertone.

The main difference with between Kim Kardashian for Women and Gucci Bloom is the gardenia. In the KKW fragrance, it is the most prevalent ingredient. Nonetheless, you do get a full white floral array. 

At times, you will experience a creamy sandalwood or a bit of musk, but mostly you will get a great floral-based fragrance for really cheap. Beyond the gardenia and tuberose, there is orange blossom, and a good deal of jasmine.

This fragrance is very well done and super attractive. The end of the wear, has more of the wood note and musk, but the main draw of gardenia still reigns supreme. One of the better performing scents of the line, in terms of staying power.

Woodier and Earthy

Michael Kors By Michael Kors For Women. Eau De Parfum Spray 3.4 Ounces
A fresh and somewhat heavier than usual, white floral fragrance, that features some musk/woodsy spice.

Tuberose, peony, musk, cashmere woods, and freesia are some of the featured notes. Daytime, casual wear. The tuberose dominates the composition, with light musk, and a noticeable freesia note.

It gives off a semi-sweet and creamy sort of aroma, that is none too complex, but quite well done. During the dry down, more lily emerges from the floral accord. Michael Kors for Women, is delightful, and a good daily wear for any age group.

This scent has a woodier and earthier presence, than does Bloom. It shares that same tuberose note, but with the woods, and musk creating a slight distinction.

White Floral with Fruity Touches

TOCCA Eau de Parfum Florence 1.7 oz– Florence is an entry for those who love gardenia dominated perfumes. It’s got a clean, crisp, and watery background thanks to the fruity additions of apple and mostly pear.

Beyond that, you do get the usual gardenia pairing with tuberose, but the latter isn’t that strong. A very nice white floral perfume. The apple and pear notes, change up the feeling versus Bloom.

While this is in the same overall family, this Tocca scent is like a lighter fruitier version of the Michael Kors perfume above. 

---

Lighter on the Tuberose

Bond No. 9 Central Park South Eau de Parfum Spray for Women, 3.3 Fl Oz– Central Park South is a very bold white floral fragrance. Jasmine, lily of the valley, and grapefruit blossom lead the way. Seriously, the sillage here is huge, and it’s the type of fragrance that can fill up a room.

This one is dominated by jasmine throughout the wear and the rest of the notes in the composition, have a green garden-like aroma to it.

The projection is not only huge, Central Park South also lasts for a long tie. This doesn’t have the same tuberose strength, as Gucci Bloom, but has a greener aroma that our target scent lacks.

More Tuberose and Muskier 

Diptyque Do Son Eau de Parfum Spray for Women, 2.5 Ounce– A scent for the floral lovers out there. Do Son features notes such as tuberose, iris, rose, and orange flower. More of a fresh and natural kind of fragrance.

There are two versions of Do Son, the EDP (linked above) and the EDT. Slightly different from one another, however. The EDT has some powdery elements (iris), like Bloom, while the EDP doesn’t really. It is also less of a musk based scent than is the EDT.

Specifically, Do Son, is for those who are looking for a tuberose perfume. That is the most dominant of the floral notes inside of this one. It’s a very realistic rendition of tuberose, with some nice pink pepper, and greenish notes flanking this scent.

Later, it becomes creamier, and there is a healthy dose of musk in the base of this perfume.

A More Tropical Floral Take

Beyond Paradise By Estee Lauder For Women. Eau De Parfum Spray 1.7 Ounces– Beyond Paradise isn’t a one to one comparison with the Bloom line. However, the floral notes, greenish aroma, and semi-aquatic feeling at times is very similar.

White floral notes with some fruity influence throughout and a bit of underlying spice. As it moves along, the flowers such as lily, honeysuckle, and gardenia dominate and the fruits fade to the background.

It has berry and citrus notes on top, which separates it from our target, but this is much more of a floral/fruit perfume first. It can be an interesting change of pace for the warmer weather, with its more exotic and tropical floral profile.

Similar to Bloom Gocce 

TOCCA Eau de Parfum Florence 1.7 oz– Tocca’s Florence is sort of a mix of a few Bloom scents and Crystal Gardenia by Kim Kardashian. Not a clone of any, but this hits in the same ballpark.

To me, it smells closest to Gocce di Fiori from the Bloom line. That one is a jasmine and tuberose blend, lighter and fresher than others from the Gucci line.

Florence is a fragrance for those who enjoy gardenia dominated perfumes. It’s got a clean, crisp, and watery background thanks to the fruity additions of apple and mostly pear.

The gardenia takes the role of the jasmine and it mixed with tuberose, giving you a very wearable white floral scent. The pear in the opening creates a sparkling aroma, but that will give way to more of a pure floral.
