For the candy crusher
Try: Ariana Grande Cloud Eau de Parfum, $60

She's constantly got a sweet tooth and is always snacking on baked goods and sipping the sweetest frappucinos (and may or may not have a secret stash of candy stored in her purse). And you know what? She's every bit as sweet as all the sugar she eats, so she deserves a fragrance to match. Ariana Grande's latest fragrance fits the bill nicely, with its cuter-than-cute bottle and sweet notes of pear, coconut and more.

For the gourmand
Try: Maison Margiela Mutiny, $165

She frequents the most exciting new restaurants and has a keen eye for the finer things in life, whether it's a chic new silk scarf or an of-the-moment brass bangle. Between its luxe appearance and even more luxe scent (which includes notes like leather accord and saffron), this perfume is sure to put a smile on her face.

For the aesthete
Try: Ellis Brooklyn Sci Fi Eau de Parfum, $100

You've been to her apartment and almost everything is white — except for her ever-growing collection of plants, of course. She's going to want a fragrance that's similarly styled, like this modern, clean citrus (especially since it also happens to be cruelty-free and eco-friendly).

For the young at heart
Try: Viktor & Rolf Flowerbomb Nectar, $170

She's nostalgic for the halcyon days when fruity body sprays were all the rage, but she wants an update for 2018. Flowerbomb Nectar is pleasantly fruity and sweet without being, you know, too fruity and sweet.

For the tea enthusiast
Try: Jo Malone London Ginger Biscuit Cologne, $140

She's constantly warming her perpetually cold hands on a mug of hot tea (preferably with a splash of cream and sugar). For this friend, go for something unerringly Anglophilic and consummately refined, like this comfortingly spicy option from Jo Malone London.
