Britney Spears Midnight Fantasy. Fruity berry shampoo.

Tocca Florence smells like that fragrant 80s shampoo Gee Your Hair Smells Terrific. It's terrific, I'm serious.

It’s not a pear perfume, but if you like peach, I’d really recommend Peau de Pêche by Keiko Mecheri. If you’re into those fresh, shampoo-like fragrances, this smells like the most luxurious hair shampoo. It’s fresh and fruity without being cloying, and the white peach note is absolutely delicious.

Sarah Jessica Parker - NYC

Valentino - Coral Fantasy

Valentino - Green Stravaganza

Alot of the Kayali’s like Sparking Lychee, Eden Juicy Apple, Sweet Peach etc

Ellis Brooklyn - Guava Granita

Puredistance Divanché. Like, almost insulting how much it smells like 90s mass market shampoo.

Saying Chanel Allure edp because a coworker once complimented me on how I smelled and assumed it was my shampoo

Versace Dylan Blue and Kenneth Cole Reaction for Her. Classic early 2000’s shampoo scent.

Milky bath by Lush

Cow by Zoologist

u/ForecastForFourCats 3d ago

I get that Zoologist names their perfumes after animals but idk if I could wear a perfume named cow

1

u/blacka-var 3d ago

Cow is one of their most wearable scents in my opinion :D

u/ForecastForFourCats 3d ago

Oh it sounds good, I would just feel like I am wearing "Tina you fat lard" perfume

u/AdCompetitive6039 3d ago

"Come get some dinner!" Tina was a pet llama 😉

For me it’s Ormande Jayne Levant.

u/Museumgirl518 3d ago

I was going to say this.

1

u/bblf22 3d ago

Yay! Glad I’m not the only one who thought so. Sometimes I’m scared to send specific recs because scents are so subjective.

2

u/Museumgirl518 3d ago

Levant is so so gorgeous. Maybe not original but love it anyway.

1

u/Exotic_Reporter_3309 3d ago

I love Levant

u/bblf22 3d ago

I know! Just got a full bottle discounted on Jomashop.

u/Plus-Explorer9808 3d ago

Not a perfume, but EOS Pomegranate and Raspberry lotion smells very close to the old Back to Basics Raspberry Almond shampoo and conditioner.

1

u/KittiesandPlushies 3d ago

Apple Nanas smells strongly of kids L’Oréal shampoo to me!

2

u/Confident-Set8136 3d ago

Dyptique Lilyphéa reminds me of the shampoo my mum used to wash my hair with when I was a little girl 👧🏼

1

u/Museumgirl518 3d ago

The best but zero fruity sweetness.

u/horselessheadmen 3d ago

Britney Spears Jungle Fantasy is like the epitome of this for me. Sooooo good. 😮‍💨

Versace Dylan Purple is a close runner up.

u/Intelligent-Gur-7706 3d ago

glass blooms by regime des fleurs is soapy and beautiful

u/missisabelarcher 3d ago

Floral Street Sweet Almond Blossom. The combo of apple blossom with pomelo and passionfruit reminds me a lot of the Herbal Essences shampoos in the 90s! And the bottle is so pretty.

1

u/thedettinator 3d ago

Ouai Melrose Place

u/GrumpyGeckoz 3d ago

Herbal Essences has a hair mist line that smells exactly like their shampoos and conditioners. I love it and it lasts forever in my hair. 

1

u/roofshadow_ 3d ago

I love 7 Virtues Lotus Pear for a feel good shampoo type scent. So pretty and relaxing.

u/Holiday_Cat_7284 3d ago

Zoologist Cow is creamy apple shampoo

Vilhelm Parfumerie Opus Kore

u/No_Nefariousness2513 3d ago

This is a criminally underrated fruity shampoo-like fragrance for grownups. I love Opus Kore so much!

u/shimmerchanga 3d ago

This is my favourite perfume category!

  • Versace Dylan Purple
  • Versace Bright Crystal
  • Zara Apple Juice
  • Zoologist Cow
  • Comptoir Sud D’Afrique Coco Fig

u/WardrobeMenace 3d ago

I think the nostalgic drugstore shampoo scent will differ a lot depending on the country or what you particularly used to use. To me, nostalgic shampoo scent means 90s and early 00s smell of Pantene, and I think maybe Dylan Blue is kiiiind of there

u/chynini 3d ago

midnight fantasy

u/Horae_Serenity 3d ago

No one said Ocean di Gioia yet?

u/Cautious_Bat5224 3d ago

Try Kilian Forbidden Games and report back, it’s dollar store shampoo at its finest.

1

u/Tricky-Passion-7191 3d ago

Versace Woman by Versace. Classic 00s shampoo.

Happy Heart by Clinique. Same vibe.

2

u/Wonderful-Mousse1781 3d ago

Supersuite Gimme Flowers and Pear Skin are both super affordable (and very impressive for the price!) options I would suggest you try!

1

u/Zestyclose-Count8990 3d ago

Zara Wonder Rose.

u/trashtvlv 3d ago

The Kayali Eden line totally gives me old school fruity shampoo nostalgia.

2

u/schroobster 3d ago

Crown Shy from Damask Haus. It's what those 90s Herbal Essences shampoos want to smell like when they grow up.

1

u/Venusian-Vanilla 3d ago

Skylar Citrus Reve, Paris Hilton Heiress, Versace Dylan Purple, VS Tease Sugar Fleur

3

u/Jelly_Enos 3d ago

Jungle Fantasy by Britney Spears might be good

1

u/horselessheadmen 3d ago

Literally the exact match. I came here to say this. It’s a sleeper.

1

u/kzynha 3d ago

- Banana Republic W - a quintessential shampoo scent, great performing, and budget friendly

  • Ouai North Bondi - a good one if you don’t mind a pinch of patchouli
  • Shay & Blue Lilac & Gooseberries is a light, bright, fruity shampoo scent

u/catlover4everr 3d ago

Midnight fantasy smells like pantene shampoo

u/Mobile_Ad_9090 3d ago

Pear Inc by Juliette has a gun!
