You know how some people smell very, very good? They are the type of people who walk into a room and you instantly know they are there. Yes, people who smell amazing have probably invested in a signature scent, but a great perfume is only part of this equation: if you want to smell amazing at all times, you need to be an expert at layering scents. That means opting for scented shampoos, body washes, and laundry detergents (as long as they don’t irritate your skin, of course). Last but not least, add hairsprays to that list.
They often have a distinctive odor that is difficult to ignore. Unfortunately, some are not so good. But the good news is that some of the best hairsprays out there also come with a sophisticated scent profile, so you don’t have to sacrifice your personal fragrance for good hair. Below, we’ve rounded up the best-smelling hair sprays out there, based on editor favorites and rave online reviews.
Read on to discover the 10 best smelling hairsprays on the market.
1. Oribe superfine hair spray

KEY NOTES: Calabrian bergamot, white butterfly jasmine, sandalwood
SIZE: 300 mL
RATINGS: 4.4/5
REVIEWS: Oribe’s fragrance is so good it smells like you’re wearing hair perfume. It’s so beloved that you can even buy it in fragrance form, but it’s powerful enough in their hair products to turn heads.____Katie Berohn, Beauty Editor.
2. Crown Affair The Finishing Hair Spray
Crown Affair hair spray is a fine non-aerosol mist that provides flexible hold to hair. It’s made with Acacia Senegal gum, an ingredient that helps styles stay in place while ensuring they’re easy to brush. Therefore, you can restyle your hair even after applying hairspray.
KEY NOTES: Bergamot, yuzu, lemongrass
SIZE: 100 mL
RATINGS: 4.7/5
REVIEWS: “Of course, the most important thing I want from my styling products is performance. They need to do what they promise to do. But another thing I prioritize is how good they smell, especially as someone who won’t use a product if I don’t like the scent, no matter how effective the formula is. Crown Affair incorporates a blend of citrus notes like bergamot and yuzu with floral and woody notes like calla lily and sandalwood in all of its products, and the combination is so lovely and refreshing that it puts me in a better mood every time I smell it. The formula also feels nice and light on my locks; I hate the feel of products in my hair and I dread having to use hairspray, but I almost forget I have this on.”____Carol Lee.
