8 Best Ariana Grande Perfumes Ranked

Cloud Eau De Parfum Review

Addictive, mouthwatering, sensual, and indulgent are choice words to describe Ariana’s sensational Cloud perfume. 

Conceived in 2018 by Clement Gavarry, this bottle of happiness embraces all that is Ariana and ranks as the best-selling celebrity scent.

The fragrant showstopper kicks off light and airy – a calm, aromatic lavender mixed with juicy pear and sparkly bergamot. A delicious candied core follows, with notes from vanilla orchid, creme de coconut, and praline before the scent settles into a sensual, musky-woodsy base. 

All through, Cloud EDP retains the sweet, caramelized coconut essence.

Cloud Ariana Grande is loved worldwide by Ariana’s fans and niche fragrance lovers. It radiates positivity, smells expensive, and adoring followers can’t get enough of the captivating fragrance. Moreover, it’s perfect as a daily perfume since it’s neither overpowering nor too light. 

This perfectly-balanced fragrance has excellent projection and lasts all day, meaning the compliments keep coming. It shines best during winter and fall but is flexible enough for warmer seasons — a perfect signature scent!

Sweet Like Candy Review

Sweet Like Candy evokes the aroma of fresh berries, vanilla, and candy. 

Released in 2016, this sweet gourmand fragrance boasts a playful, sexy vibe that is alluring. The perfume invites you to daydream, flirt with temptation, and unleash delicious possibilities.

The bubbly fragrance welcomes you with bright, fruity top notes comprising blackberry, pear, and Italian bergamot. Shortly after, a sweet, creamy heart with a prominent marshmallow accord eases in, later joined by florals resting on a base of vanilla and precious woods.

This summer/spring fragrance works exceedingly well as a bedtime scent. Sillage and longevity are decent, and you’ll enjoy sniffing the delectable aroma on you. Sweet Like Candy is the real deal for lovers of sweet, creamy perfumes with hints of florals.

Ultra-feminine Sweet Like Candy presents in a creamy pink, pyramid-edged flacon featuring a fluffy pom-pom.

Thank U Next Review

This 2019 floral-fruity gourmand release is the work of perfumer Jérôme Epinette. It represents life’s journey with its ups and downs and comes in a cute pink bottle shaped like a broken heart with a body mist to match.

Playful, fun, and uplifting, the Eau de Parfum opens to reveal luscious white pear and wild raspberry notes. 

The perfume starts fruity with tartness but quickly evolves into a deliciously creamy coconut heart, while the dry-down includes a sensual, velvety musk with macaron sugar. The overall effect is an enticing scent guaranteed to enhance any mood.

Best for daytime use, the highly versatile perfume is fabulous for spring/summer and suits both young and mature women. Longevity is a decent 5+ hours with enduring projection – it also comes at a great price. 

This scent epitomizes Ariana’s journey. It is strong, inspiring, and sassy, encouraging you to live life to the fullest. Additionally, it’s a scent you want to carry on your next vacation thanks to its tropical aroma that rests wonderfully on your skin.

God Is a Woman Review

Now, this is an interesting name for a fragrance. Jérôme Epinette, the perfumer, sought to create a scent different from the typical ultra-sweet Ariana offerings. The result was a cruelty-free, nature-derived, fruity-musky concoction that smells beautiful — like a burst of fresh air.

This perfume’s aroma is simply breathtaking. A quick spritz yields a semi-sweet yet succulent pear combined with a musky-cum-floral ambrette. The heart reveals delicate rose petals accentuated by powdery orris, while the base is a smooth blend of vanilla and sandalwood. 

You can wear this perfume during the day, particularly in spring or summer, stretching to fall and autumn. Longevity is on the lower side, though, while sillage is soft at best.

The fragrance comes in a minimalist bottle, and the understated aesthetics echo the vegan agenda.

Moonlight Review

The next perfume in this pop star’s collection is Moonlight. It is presented as an Eau de Parfum in an exquisite flacon adorned with a fluffy lavender pom-pom. 

The uniquely shaped perfume bottle is the perfect receptacle for Moonlight to exude its magical essence. Exquisite! 

Ariana’s positive energy and bold spirit are well represented in Moonlight. The mesmerizing fragrance is designed to inspire and illuminate your authentic self, making you stand out as an irresistible woman.

Moonlight unfurls with a bright, rich blackcurrant/ juicy plum duo enriched with a fluffy marshmallow heart alongside fresh peony notes. 

Boldly captivating, the heart weaves a web of intrigue into the perfume, lasting to the seductive dry down featuring amber, creamy sandalwood, and vanilla accords. The sillage lingers as an indulgent mix of sensual addiction.

This EDP will last you most of the day, making it worthwhile. The fabulous scent will also earn you loads of compliments, making you feel super confident.

Ari Review

Ari is the scent that ushered Ariana into the world of perfumery back in 2015. The pop star gave the luscious perfume her name, a befitting gesture. It’s designed to lighten your steps and brighten your smile.

The fragrance kicks off with a delectable trio of succulent fruits. It then meshes with a plush floral bouquet, ending in a blend of woods, creamy musk, and a hint of sweet marshmallow. 

A fan favorite, Ari is fresh, clean-smelling, and extremely sexy. Neither too sweet nor too heavy, the beautiful floral scent lasts fairly long, drawing glowing compliments wherever you go. You can wear Ari every day, everywhere, in any season, with daytime producing the best effect — making you feel happy and youthful.

Price-wise, it’s budget-friendly, with a 1oz (30ml) bottle going for less than 50 bucks. For such a luxurious-looking perfume, that’s a steal!This gourmand scent comes in a sophisticated gem-shaped bottle with sparkly, rose gold accents. And just like Sweet Like Candy and Moonlight, the pink-tinged Eau de Parfum sports the cutest pom-pom.

R.E.M Review

R.E.M EDP is a 2020 formulation that’s lavender-forward and also includes enticing elements like zefir and salted caramel. 

R.E.M refers to Rapid Eye Movement sleep when vivid dreams occur. The scent is considered among the best Ariana Grande perfumes and caters to a more mature audience.

R.E.M. bears a softly seductive aroma. The fragrance opening reveals gourmand and fruity top notes. It starts fresh and somewhat masculine, with a dominant powdery lavender note. However, upon drying out, the scent takes on a sweet quality, becoming less masculine. While it’s sweet, this is no candied lavender, as the sweetness emanating from the headnotes is not overwhelming. (Learn more about Lavender, the universal perfume ingredient.)

One thing that stands out about R.E.M. is how unique the fragrance is, with all the notes blending beautifully. It’s also an exciting mix of contrasts; masculine yet feminine, sweet and at the same time fresh and woodsy. 

While the performance could be better (about 5 hours), R.E.M. is highly versatile. The all-season scent is excellent for cool evenings when you want to chill out. An iconic bottle with projecting crystals holds this purplish perfume — REM is the most expensive Ariana Grande scent.

MOD Vanilla Eau De Parfum Review

MOD Vanilla EDP is an amber vanilla fragrance. The recent release (2022) is highly addictive, starting fruity and ending in a sweet vanilla-coconut dry-down. MOD Vanilla is characterized by plum and musk opening leading to a praline and orris heart. 

This gourmand scent rests on a foundation of powdery vanilla absolute and coconut, the duo piecing together the last notes in this memorable scent.

MOD Vanilla delivers average staying power, making it ideal for a day at the office with a reapplication. Vanilla lovers will enjoy this fruity version though the scent leans more toward a younger audience— young girls in their teens.Some users report their first impression of MOD Vanilla is that it smells like Cloud. However, this is only at the onset. Once it settles, the fragrance veers off on a different tangent, taking on the sweeter, yummier quality of a creamy, fruity, musky vanilla. The only downside is the packaging —- the oval-shaped bottle is awkward to handle.
