Ranked by how many people have rated each perfume — the most-worn and most-discussed first. Every perfume links to its own page with the full ranked list of alternatives and where to buy.
How this list was ranked
- Judged on the full note list. A note like nutmeg is a specific ingredient rather than a broad accord family, so a perfume qualifies when nutmeg appears among its top, heart or base notes.
- Ranked by ratings, not by our opinion. At least 1,000 ratings each; 190 perfumes qualified and the 30 most-rated are shown. Popularity is the one ranking nobody has to take our word for.
- Discontinued perfumes are excluded. A list you buy from should not lead with a bottle no retailer stocks.
- The cheaper match is AltScent’s rank-1 alternative, shown only when it scores 85 or better. Similarity is an AI-generated estimate informed by community opinion; it describes perceived scent character and is not a statement of fact.
- Prices are estimates of a full bottle in USD and vary by retailer, size and time.
