For this, list I have selected eight fragrances by Marc Jacobs that can be considered the best. Where, I have done a full review on the perfume, I have linked to it. I will also update this, as needed, over the ensuing months or years.


What are the Best Marc Jacobs Perfumes for Women?

Best Seller

Marc Jacobs Daisy by Marc Jacobs 3.4oz 100ml EDT SprayThe most popular fragrance by Marc Jacobs. A feminine and playful floral perfume with notes of violet, vanilla, grapefruit, gardenia, jasmine, and musk.

Very sweet and elegant. It opens up with a water floral bouquet, consisting mainly of the violet, but joined by gardenia and jasmine. You also get that bit of citrus a the top, supplied by the grapefruit note, which adds a nice touch away from just being a straight floral fragrance.

The dry down gets musky/powdery and the perfume has good performance, in the 7 hour range, on the skin. It’s a best-seller for a reason, it’s quite lovely. Daisy Full Review


Fresh Fruity Floral

Marc Jacobs Daisy Women’s Eau de Parfum Spray, Dream Forever, 1.7 OunceDaisy Dream brought you wisteria and jasmine, but Dream Forever, amps up the fruity notes, that flank those florals. The result is a more attractive and balanced aroma versus the original.

Dream Forever kicks off with a pairing of blackberry and pear, mostly. The blackberry strikes the nose as quite sour at first, but I think the sharpness of the grapefruit, is behind most of that. Nevertheless, this scent settles down and becomes a great fruity/floral perfume.

Dream Forever gets sweeter, with a fresh finish, and a light almost aquatic aroma. The sillage isn’t overly powerful, but Dream Forever hangs around quite nicely.


Best Decadence Scent

Marc Jacobs Decadence Eau So Decadent- This is the best of the Decadence line for me, even if none of the others are all that great, in my opinion. However, Eau So Decadent is a very nice daily wear sort of fragrance.

You get a fruity top blend, which aids the overall floral aroma. Blackcurrant and raspberry, give this perfume a somewhat sour berry smell. Meanwhile, pear is the real star of the show. The floral notes are lily of the valley, magnolia, and jasmine.

In the end, this fragrance is made up of: lily, magnolia, pear, and amber. It’s very versatile, a bit green, has enough sweetness to keep it interesting, with a solid performance. Eau So Decadent Full Review


Classic Marc Jacobs

Marc Jacobs Dot Eau De Parfum Spray for Women- More fruity than floral and built for the spring and summer months. Dot is soft, vibrant, and youthful. Dot features notes of red berries, dragon fruit, jasmine, honeysuckle, coconut, and more.

It isn’t a powerhouse perfume, but will give you 6-7 hours of solid wear, and can be worn in a variety of situations. Dot is clean and has a juicy and somewhat tropical aroma. It opens up with a punch of the red berries, dragon fruit, and delicious coconut water.

The fruits, definitely dominate the composition, but the flowers do build strength as it dries down. I personally detect jasmine and the honeysuckle, as the two most prominent floral notes.  Dot Full Review


Best Summer Perfume

Marc Jacobs Daisy Eau So Fresh Eau de Toilette Spray-125ml/4.25 oz.A fruitier take on the original Daisy with raspberry and pear notes. Much more intense and brighter than the original as well. You get fresh and sweet fruits, that are less juicy, and more tempered by the floral notes, such as violet.

This one is a simple and straightforward wear, with more earthy and floral elements emerging after the opening. The sillage isn’t huge, but Eau So Fresh, is a fantastic option for daily wear during the warmer months of the year.


Under the Radar Fragrance

Marc Jacobs Honey Eau de Parfum Spray for WomenSoft blend of really sweet fruits and honey. It’s not a totally loud or in your face perfume, rather, one that is subtle and good for the teenage/college set.

When one of the main notes is fruit punch, you should know what to expect, especially when you add in orange and the title ingredient. As it dries down, further, you do get more of a creamy/musky scent, which is clean and does take on a honey smelling aroma. Fresh and dynamic.


Top Spicy Floral Scent

Marc Jacobs Lola By Marc Jacobs for Women Eau De Parfum Spray- A rose based floral with some notes such as pear and grapefruit to give it an air of fruit. Pink pepper provides some spice and warmth. Mainly, you get a good amount of rose, with some peony, and an underlying blend of sweetness and pink pepper.

An underrated scent, that is very simple in its presentation. It might be discontinued at this point, but you can still find bottles.

So, there you have the full list, as of now. Each of these fragrances does represent a different style and will provide an option for just about anybody who is looking for a Marc Jacobs scent to wear.


C’est Parfait

Marc Jacobs Perfect Women 3.3 oz EDP Spray– Perfect is a newer addition to the line and currently one of the most popular from Marc Jacobs. It’s also a very nice fragrance.

It kicks off with a mix of rhubarb and strawberries, giving it an initial fruitiness that pairs well with the underlying greenish aroma. 

That is a sweet and tart beginning to the perfume, which will then give way to daffodil and almond milk. The sweet tart will fade away and daffodil, musk, cashmeran will dominate this one.

Clean, floral, and woody. A very balanced aroma on the whole. The performance is solid with 7-8 hours of performance and Perfect provides a sunny and upbeat experience for the warmer months. Perfect Review
