Ariana Grande's Perfumes: The Complete Collection
This collection guide covers 23 distinct Ariana Grande perfume scents, including earlier limited editions, the five LOVENOTES fragrances and the two Wicked: For Good releases. The newest addition covered here is Cloud Aurora, launched in July 2026. The count is checked as of October 19, 2026; bottle sizes, gift sets and body mists aren’t counted as extra perfume scents.
Ari began the line in 2015. The collection now offers several different kinds of sweetness: fruit and marshmallow, lavender and coconut, vanilla and woods, or rose and musk. You don’t need the whole collection to find something you love. The useful question is which kind of sweetness makes you curious.
Ari, Frankie, Sweet Like Candy and Moonlight
| Perfume | Notes and character to compare |
|---|---|
| Ari | Pear, grapefruit and raspberry with flowers, marshmallow, musk and woods |
| Frankie | Pink pepper, pear and apricot with orchid, cedar, sandalwood and sugar crystals |
| Sweet Like Candy | Blackberry and pear with flowers, marshmallow and vanilla |
| Sweet Like Candy Limited Edition | Red berries and pear with a floral heart, marshmallow and a warmer musky-amber base |
| Moonlight | Blackcurrant and plum with marshmallow and peony, then sandalwood, amber and vanilla |
Frankie was introduced as a shared, gender-neutral limited edition in 2016. Sweet Like Candy Limited Edition followed in 2017 in a red bottle; it is a distinct scent entry from the original pink-bottle perfume.
One wearer who loves original Sweet Like Candy describes the Limited Edition as a similar idea with extra red berries and whipped cream. Another enjoys the berries, marshmallow and florals but finds it less sweet than its name suggests. If fruit and marshmallow are your favorite part of the line, those differences are worth exploring. The similar names don’t quite settle which one you’ll prefer.
The four Cloud perfumes
| Perfume | What distinguishes it in the family |
|---|---|
| Cloud | Lavender, pear and bergamot with coconut, praline, vanilla orchid, musk and creamy woods |
| Cloud 2.0 Intense | A separate EDP sharing the lavender, pear, coconut and praline theme, with musk and blonde woods |
| Cloud Pink | Pineapple, dragon fruit and berries with coconut water, vanilla orchid, ambrette, praline and ambery woods |
| Cloud Aurora | Spun sugar, musk and blackcurrant with vanilla-glazed petals, sandalwood, vanilla smoke and amber |
Start with original Cloud and Cloud Pink: lavender and pear against tropical fruit is an easy difference to get curious about. Add Aurora if blackcurrant and vanilla are calling to you. Cloud 2.0 Intense is worth smelling on its own if you love the original’s direction; the name alone can’t tell you how much longer you’ll notice it on skin.
LUXE Brands’ Cloud Aurora announcement dates its launch to July 14, 2026. Original Cloud, Pink and Aurora are separate scents, not just different bottle colours.
Thank U, Next and R.E.M.
| Perfume | Notes and character to compare |
|---|---|
| Thank U, Next | Pear and raspberry with coconut and pink rose, then macaroon sugar and musk |
| Thank U Next 2.0 | Apple, strawberry cream and pomegranate with creamy flowers, marshmallow, musk and sandalwood |
| R.E.M. | Quince, fig, salted caramel and marshmallow with pear blossom, lavender, tonka, musk and sandalwood |
| R.E.M. Cherry Eclipse | Black cherry and honeysuckle with jasmine, marshmallow meringue, amber and musk |
Choose between the Thank U, Next scents by whether coconut and rose or apple, strawberry and marshmallow appeal more. In the R.E.M. pair, compare lavender with salted caramel against cherry with marshmallow. The shared names identify families, not an identical scent at a different strength.
God Is a Woman and the MOD duo
| Perfume | Notes and character to compare |
|---|---|
| God Is a Woman | Pear and ambrette with orris and rose, then vanilla and cedarwood |
| MOD Vanilla | Plum, musk and freesia with orris, white praline and jasmine, then vanilla and cocoa butter |
| MOD Blush | Passionfruit, bergamot, raspberry and pink pepper with magnolia, rose and pear over musky woods |
MOD Vanilla is where we’d head for vanilla and praline. If you’d rather have fruit with your flowers, compare the pear in God Is a Woman with the fruit-and-rose direction of MOD Blush. That’s a more useful choice than picking a bottle color.
The five LOVENOTES fragrances
The original LOVENOTES collection contains four scents. Plush Vanilla joined in 2025 as a fifth fragrance. The original four launched in different regions, so a regional launch history and a current retailer listing are different things to check when shopping.
| Perfume | Notes and character to compare |
|---|---|
| Angels Kiss | Raspberry, coconut and rose-water gelato with rose, whipped musk, vanilla and woods |
| Pink Woods | Bergamot and lotus with jasmine, tea and vetiver over tonka, cashmere woods and cotton candy |
| Pressed Petals | Bergamot and lemon with violet leaf, raspberry and jasmine, then sandalwood, amber and marshmallow |
| Vanilla Suede | Bergamot, sandalwood and rice milk with vanilla and musk |
| Plush Vanilla | Vanilla with sandalwood, amber and cashmere woods |
Vanilla Suede and Plush Vanilla are the natural pair for a vanilla fan. We’d also give Pink Woods a look: tea and vetiver beside cotton candy is an intriguing idea. For flowers with sweetness, Angels Kiss offers creamy rose, while Pressed Petals brings citrus, flowers and marshmallow.
Wicked: For Good — Glinda and Elphaba
LUXE Brands and Universal announced these two EDPs for October 2025. They are part of Ariana Grande’s fragrance collaboration for the film.
- Glinda Bubbly Pink: nectarine, apple and tulip with sandalwood and sugared musk.
- Elphaba Enchanted: green apple, plum and moonflower with oudwood, oakmoss and vanilla.
Glinda is the fruit-floral comparison; Elphaba adds the darker wood-and-vanilla idea. Look for the full fragrance name when comparing a bottle or a set.
What counts as a different perfume?
The 23 scents above include named flankers and the earlier limited editions. A travel spray, miniature, larger bottle, gift set or perfume-and-lotion bundle doesn’t add another scent to that count. A body mist is a separate product format, so its presence and lasting power shouldn’t be assumed to match the EDP.
For a first bottle, pick two that sound genuinely different. You’ll learn more about what you like from that comparison than from trying to rank all 23 at once.
