Are you looking for the best Gwen Stefani Perfume Guide? To help you pick the best fragrance to fit your personality? If so, then you are in the right place, girl. I got a chance to test out every perfume from the Gwen Stefani G. LAMB perfumes range. After a lot of struggle, I can say that I found a scent that perfectly matches my essence.

The first perfume I had ever experienced. Belonged to my grandmother’s extensive collection of jasmine-scented perfumes. Even after so many years have passed, I still remember the aroma of that incredible scent.

The collection of her mesmerizing fragrances inspired me to explore more beautiful scented perfumes for myself with a long-lasting impression. Today, I want to share a Gwen Stefani Perfume guide to help you find your ideal perfume. So that you don’t have to search for years and years as I did. 

Bottom Line Up Front

Most of us have probably made the wrong choices of perfume for ourselves. It’s because you don’t know what ingredients they are made of. Or how to select the ideal scent for you based on your personal preferences. Sometimes finding the best bouquet can be overwhelming. 

The perfumes from Gwen Stefani are known for their quality of being sweet, delicate, fresh, and everlasting. The adorable collection ranges from bright floral to new fruity scents. Which can be used in every season and admired by everyone. The one fragrance from her collection that I immensely adore is Harajuku Lovers Baby. Which feels very gentle like a baby, ingenious, and has a unique floral scent. 

Selection Criteria

I chose the Gwen Stefani Perfumes mentioned in this article according to the following criteria:

• Perfumes that form part of the G. LAMB perfume range.
• Perfumes that are suited for ladies of all age groups.
• Perfumes with cute and attractive packaging.
• Perfumes that smell amazing.
• Perfumes that will make great gifts.

More About Gwen Stefani and Her Perfumes

Gwen Stefani is an American pop artist’. She is also involved in the fashion world along with her musical talent and has created many accessories. She introduced a fragrance line in September 2008 that forms part of the Harajuku Lovers products. It is the G. LAMB perfumes, and it denotes G for Gwen and L.A.M.B. for Love, lil’Angel, Music, and Baby, that are her backup dancers.

The appearance and scent of each perfume were inspired by the cuteness of Japan’s youth culture and street fashion. It was something that Gwen admired a lot, and she wanted to showcase it in her perfumes. Which I find very cute! What I love about this perfume range is that each perfume has a unique look and style to it and, of course, scent. But the 5 perfumes in this range have something in common.

They are all cute and aesthetically pleasing! Whether you are looking for a sweet citrusy scent, something spicy, or something more toned down and gentle. You are sure to find it in this G. LAMB perfume range. 

Later up to 2014, she introduced many other perfumes like:

• Snow Bunnies | Sunshine Cuties ( 2009)
• Wicked Style (G, Love, Lil’ Angel, Music, Baby) ( 2010)
• G of the Sea | Jingle G (2011)
• Super G (2011)
• Pop Electric (2014).

I have recently reviewed some of her perfumes. I’ve got a few recommendations for you that I think you’ll enjoy having. So let us get to it!

1. G by Harajuku Lovers

The Packaging of the Perfume

I’m in love with the perfume’s packaging and think it is adorable. It is aesthetically pleasing and great for displaying on your dressing table.

The box comes in black with blue detailing on it. The perfume lid is a cute little blonde doll with a little white shirt, a blue mini skirt, fishnet stockings, and little black shoes. When you take off the lid(This is the doll part that you see). You still have a gorgeous transparent bottle that says “Harajuku Lovers G” on it. The bottle is very easy to use. 

What Does the Perfume Smell Like?

I would describe the scent of the perfume as a sweet coconut explosion with fruity floral elements. The smell is like a coconut body lotion or body tan. It has top notes of apple, mandarin, and fresh coconut. The heart notes include magnolia, Freesia, and jasmine sambac. The base notes include white sandalwood, coconut cream, and cottonwoods. 

How Do I Feel About this Perfume?

I love that the perfume has a whiff of my favorite scent, jasmine. I also love that the coconut scent is not overpowering and sickly. But sweet and pleasant. My husband loves everything coconut. From coconut sweets to the smell of coconut body washes and perfumes.

You will always find me buying coconut body lotions and body washes. I was over the moon when I discovered this scent. I wear it on date nights or days I want to impress him and grab his attention. Which is pretty much every day. So yes, I’m running out of this perfume like it is going out of style. 

Who is this Perfume For?

This perfume is for anyone who loves coconut scents with a hint of floral and fruity scents. It is the perfect summer scent. Throw on your bikini, spritz this perfume, and head to the beach. Don’t forget your Pina Colada.

Pros

• Perfect for those who don’t prefer strong and overpowering fragrances
• Super cute packaging
• It will look stunning displayed on your dresser.
• The bottle is easy to use

Cons

• It is not long-lasting.
• It is quite expensive for its quantity.
• Some people may see it as teenage.

2. LOVE by Harajuku Lovers

The Packaging of the Perfume

You can just feel the love by looking at this cute perfume. I love that there is a pink theme with the hearts in her hair and the details on the box. The doll has dark brown hair, pink hearts in her hair, a little jean dress with white striped detail, and red sneakers. When you remove the lid, you are left with a gorgeous transparent bottle. Just like mentioned before. With a long neck and the added detail of “Harajuku Lovers Love.” The appearance of this perfume is my favorite of all the perfumes. 

What Does the Perfume Smell Like?

It is a beautiful soft floral scent that is perfect for everyday wear. It has a combination of sweet citrus and slight musky notes. I would describe the smell as romantic. It includes top notes of Bergamot, Peach, Bamboo, and Pomelo. Heart notes of jasmine, rose, Narcissus and Peony. Base notes of Ylang-ylang and Vanilla.

How Do I Feel About this Perfume?

It initially has a strong aroma of floral scents mixed with a hint of spice. But then it shifts to a mixture of sweet rosy floral and white musk scents. I like sweetish, musky blended floral scents with fruity undertones. The white musk incense is one I am deeply in love with. I also love the packaging as I see myself in the doll. Dark long hair that is always tied up in a bun, a cute dress with sneakers, and cute accessories added to the hair. I think this perfume suits my style and personality the best. 

Who is this Perfume For?

This perfume is suited for young girls. Or women who enjoy distinctive floral essence bouquets and who like to romanticize their life. It is even suited for everyday wear. I think this perfume will be a great choice for those going to a romantic dinner with their partner. 

Pros

• Perfect for those who enjoy fruity scents
• Adorable packaging
• A scent that can be worn daily
• Perfect summer scent

Cons

• It has a bit of a synthetic smell.
• It is not long-lasting.
• For some, the scent may be a bit overwhelming.

3.LIL’ANGEL by Harajuku Lovers

The Packaging of the Perfume

The box is black and covered in yellow designs. The little doll bottle gives me “school girl vibes” with the little dress, pullover, shoes, and tie. Don’t forget the little cute yellow headband. When you remove the lid, you are again left with a transparent bottle and the detailing “Harajuku Lovers Lil’ Angel.”

This is definitely a perfume that I would have loved to have worn back in school. As I just know, the whole appearance of the bottle would have made me feel cool and comfortable. I know my friends would have freaked out seeing it in my room. 

What Does the Perfume Smell Like?

It is a little fruit bomb with a little citrusy edge. The fragrance is filled with a combination of fruity aromas of raspberry, black currant, cranberry, and pineapple. The scent is sweet, fruity, juicy, and heavily pineapply. It includes heart notes of Violet and rose. Base notes of Amber and Hinoki Wood. It’s got considerably more energy than Baby or Love. 

How Do I Feel About This Perfume?

It reminds me of delightful pineapple and maple syrup mixed with honey. Which sounds very delicious but only for your tastebuds. This perfume is more of the solid fruity smell of pineapple and berries at first. But, when it dries down, it still maintains its fruity freshness. With the scent of the woods, amber, and a little more floral aroma. 

This is a heavy fragrance for me. So I won’t be using it again because I don’t like the smell full of astringent citrus fruits. 

Who is this Perfume For?

This perfume is for every girl, whether she is still a teenager or a businesswoman.

Pros

• It has a cute schoolgirl bottle.
• Suited for every girl regardless of their age
• It is long-lasting
• It has a fruity scent. 

Cons

• It may be strong, harsh, and unpleasant for some.

4. Harajuku Lovers Music 

The Packaging of the Perfume

The box is in black and covered with blue details. The doll bottle is cute, with a little white dress outfit with bows and black sneakers. Her hair is tied up in a bun and looks like Mickey Mouse’s ears. I think it is very cute how each bottle has its unique look and story to tell. I love that we can see music notes in her hair as if she is listening to music. 

What Does the Perfume Smell Like?

Music is a soft, delicate floral perfume with a sweet fruity, and floral scent. The dry-down scent of music smells like fresh, lush pears and juicy clementines. Laced with honeysuckle and vanilla sugar. It is a bouquet of pears and flowers. That blend delightfully in a sweet, re-energized, and refined manner.

It isn’t exactly distinguished from others in terms of smell. But it feels slightly less generic than Love or Lil’ Angel. The perfume includes the following notes: Top notes of Clementine and Pear. Heart notes of jasmine, honeysuckle, and Sweet Pea. And lastly, base notes of musk, Vanilla, and woodsy notes. 

How Do I Feel About this Perfume?

I adore this fragrance! I found this perfume so fresh, aquatic, and juicy! The top notes that I smell are pear, clementine, and honeysuckle. But once I sprayed it on my skin, I got more hints of musk, Vanilla, and sleek woods together with the traces of the top notes. 

To me, this is a yummy, creamy, and rich gourmand fragrance. That has become my favorite one in the series. Because of the sweet floral scent of Jasmine and Vanilla. Which makes the overall aroma very fresh and soft. 

Who is this Perfume For?

The perfume is girlish. Best for teens. But also a great choice to wear at work. 

Pros

• It is a light and refreshing scent.
• It is an excellent perfume for the summer.
• You can wear it anytime and for any occasion.
• It has a good price value.

Cons

• It doesn’t last long.
• For some people, the pear smell might be a bit overwhelming.

5. Harajuku Lovers Baby

The Packaging of the Perfume

The box is black, with light pink detailing. When we look at the cute doll perfume. We can see that she is wearing a cute pink polka dot dress tied around her waist with a bow. She is wearing cute little black shoes. Her hair is black, looks like it is permed, and has cute little green bow accessories. Her hair kind of reminds me of a blackberry. Don’t you agree? 

You are left with a beautiful transparent bottle when you remove the lid with “Harajuku Lovers Baby” detailing on top of it. I think the overall design of the perfume is very cute!

What Does the Perfume Smell Like?

This perfume is as innocent and gentle as a baby. The scent is primarily floral. It is advertised as a “powdery musk.” It smells pretty much like baby products. With slightly more floral than your average baby lotion or powder. The top notes include Bergamot, Freesia, and rose. The heart notes include Jasmine, Orange Blossom, and Tiare Flower. The base notes are Vanilla, musk, Violet, and Heliotrope.

How Do I Feel About this Perfume?

My mother gifted me this cute perfume on my birthday. The fragrance packaging was so impressive that I couldn’t control myself to open it and try it on. The scent reminds me of sweet floral baby products. The floral notes give a unique powdery scent of white musk and rose. The Vanilla adds sweetness to the fragrance. I’m obsessed with it. 

Who is this Perfume For?

This fantastic baby scent is for everyone: every girl, every teen, and even woman of any age. 

Pros

• It is a very soft, sweet, and gentle scent. 
• It is a reasonable price. 
• Perfect to wear for any occasion

Cons

• It does not last that long.
• Not everyone will like the baby/ powdery musk scent.

6. L Lamb By Gwen Stefani Eau-de-parfum Spray

The Packaging of the Perfume

The perfume comes in a gorgeous golden and black box with white and blue line detailing. The box looks elegant and luxurious. The bottle itself is beautiful, and it looks like red, yellow, and green colors are fading into each other. The perfume lid is my favorite part as it looks like 2 Tetris blocks. That fit into each other and form one big golden block. To me, this Gwen Stefani Perfume defines class and elegance. 

What Does the Perfume Smell Like?

The perfume has a fruity floral scent with sparkling green freshness due to the mixture of top notes of leafy water hyacinth with pears and Freesia. The prevalence of musk marks its dry down. The combination of pear with the sweet aromatic scent of Freesia seems to dominate the fragrance for a few minutes.

Over the less dominant floral notes like jasmine, fragrapini, and Lily-of-the-Valley. Let us have a deeper look at the notes of this perfume. It includes top notes of Violet Leaf, Freesia, Pear, and Water Hyacinth. The heart notes are Orange Blossom, Jasmine, Lily-of-the-Valley, rose, and Sweet Pea. The base notes include peach, Heliotrope, Musk, and Frangipani. 

How Do I Feel About this Perfume?

This fragrance is too peachy, but it has a delightful aroma. It is soft, elegant, and not overpowering all your senses. It’s light, softly floral without the sweet sugary indulgence in it. I found the fragrance a bit strong at first, but once it settles down, it smells soft and stays all day!

Who is this Perfume For?

The perfume works for every woman. The light and soft combo can be worn casually by young girls, teens, and women at home or work. It works everywhere at parties, at home, or at formal gatherings. 

Pros

• It is a light, soft floral fruity scent. 
• It has good longevity.
• For its quantity, its price is affordable.
• It will make a great gift.
• Its packaging looks elegant and luxurious. 

Cons

• The strong peachy smell, in the beginning, feels very uncomfortable and harsh. 

7. Gwen Stefani Harajuku Wicked Baby

The Packaging of the Perfume

The perfume comes in a light pink box with a checkered print on the sides. And black detailing. I think the bottle itself is adorable. And definitely fits its name “Wicked Style” perfectly. The little doll has light pink hair that is tied in 2 ponytails. And a colorful pink, yellow and green outfit with white shoes.

When you remove the lid, you are left with a transparent bottle and see the pink perfume. “Harajuku Lovers Baby” is printed in black on the bottle. I love the cute details added to the packaging and that you can see the pink perfume. 

What Does the Perfume Smell Like?

The perfume has a gorgeous floral, sweet, and musky scent. It has a citrusy opening. With a mixture of red apple and white peach scent, which suddenly disappears after a spritz. It is fizzy and powdery simultaneously. It has a vanilla floral scent once it settles down. Let us take a further look at the notes: 

The top notes include Freesia, red apple, and peach. The heart notes are jasmine, orchid, and Frangipani. And lastly, the base notes consist of Musk, Sandalwood, Amber, and Vanille. 

How Do I Feel About this Perfume?

I kind of like this pleasant scent that combines peach and fresh Vanilla. The scent is light and sweet. I smelled some bitterness in the fragrance for a moment which may be because of the peachy top note. I have not experienced any musky or woodsy scent. Still, the sweet combination of Vanilla, red apple, and orchid. And tropical Frangipani is impressive.

Who is this Perfume For?

This perfume will be perfect if you are obsessed with sweet Vanilly or fruity-floral smells. The perfume’s scent is feminine and suits every girl and woman. But if we look at the appearance of the perfume. It looks as if it will be more suited for teenagers or someone with a “wicked style.”

Pros

• The scent is very sweet and feminine.
• It is affordable
• The perfume has a cute and funky look.
• Makes a great gift
• It is suited for special occasions like romantic dinners.

Cons

• Not very long-lasting
• Not a scent for daily wear

8. Gwen Stefani Harajuku Wicked Love

The Packaging of the Perfume

The packaging of the perfume is very cool, gothic, and emo. It comes in a purple box with checkered prints down the side and black detailing. The little doll has purple curly hair and a red dress with white frills and bows with cute little buckle shoes. 

The bottle itself is more round than the other Gwen Stefani Perfumes. It is transparent with the “Harajuku Lovers Love” printed in black on it. I would have loved this perfume when I was younger. Because I was in a gothic faze, which would have suited my style perfectly back then.

What Does the Perfume Smell Like?

It has a sweet and fruity floral fragrance with much of a grape candy floral scent. It’s pleasant and smells precisely like grape-flavored Popin’ Cookin’ kits. The middle floral notes are very light and are not very dominating. It has also got a bit of floral aquatic musk scent. Let us have a look at the different notes. 

Top notes include Mangosteen, Nectarine, and pear. The heart notes are Osmanthus, Violet, African Orange Flower, and Lotus. Musk, Patchouli, Sandalwood, Praline, and Woodsy Notes are base notes. 

How Do I Feel About this Perfume?

I found this perfume light floral, but the strong grape scent is something I do not want. Although the grape isn’t listed as a note, this nectarine or pear may have a grapey smell. I smelled a mixed scent of wine grapes and violet floral notes. I feel the blossoming sweet violet scent is very impressive. But this isn’t a scent I would go for; it is just too citrusy. 

Who is this Perfume For?

This perfume is suitable for young ladies or teen girls who want to come across as sweet and gothic at the same time. 

Pros

• It is a pleasant, light, and inoffensive scent.
• It is affordable
• Great present for your teenage friends/children
• It has a cool look to it and will make a great addition to your collection.
• It has an intimate sillage.

Cons

• The grape scent may feel harsh and unbearable to some people. 
• It has moderate longevity. 

9. Gwen Stefani Harajuku Wicked Music

The Packaging of the Perfume

The perfume comes in a hot pink colored box with checkered prints down the side and black detailing. I love how the perfume has a cool punk look to it. I like the hot pink hair of the doll and the light pink-colored perfume that can be seen through the bottle.

I feel the black blazer outfit with the skirt, laced shoes, and hot pink hair contribute to the “Punk” look. I think the doll’s green tie and green eyes go well with the pink theme. The packaging gets a yes from me!

What Does the Perfume Smell like?

 It is fruity, sweet, floral, and pleasant. I find it settles into the skin quickly. It’s a fresh daytime scent that could be worn from spring, summer, to fall. It smells like White floral with sweetish musk and a hint of cedar. The fruity top notes give a sweet scent of apple. The other notes include:

Top notes of Bergamot, red apple, and fruity notes. The heart notes include Gardenia, Jasmine, Fuschia, and Peony. 

How Do I Feel About this Perfume?

It is one of my favorite scents. It is a woody floral fragrance that feels refreshing, sweet, and fruity. It quickly settles down on my skin and gives a delightful smell. I get the beautiful blending of different scents of red apples and woodsy notes. Gently floral middle notes, which feel very sweet and gentle. When I spritz it on my skin, I feel cool and confident. 

Who is This Perfume For?

The perfume appeals more to young girls and ladies in their 20s but is wearable by older women too. It is for those ladies who have a wicked style and want to smell wicked too. But in a sweet scent kind of way. 

Pros

• It is a perfectly balanced floral fruity smell. That is light and refreshing. 
• It has an intimate sillage. 
• It has a cool appearance and packaging.
• It will make a great addition to your perfume collection.
• Great gift for young girls or teenagers

Cons

• Its longevity is weak.
• It is a bit pricey.
• Some older ladies might not like the packaging and might find it a bit teenagey.
