Perfume-inspired names

Wouldn't it be lovely to name your child after a beautiful fragrance? Aside from the obvious ones (Coco, Chloe, Jicky, Mitsouko, Shalimar)... here are some under-the-radar names inspired by perfumes.
  1. Kenzo
    • Origin:

      Japanese
    • Meaning:

      "strong and healthy"
    • Description:

      Kenzo is a common Japanese name with several creative bearers: the single-named fashion designer, prizewinning architect Kenzo Takada, and painter Kenzo Okada, which makes it internationally recognizable.
  2. Caline
    • Cabotine
      • Aerin
        • Origin:

          Tolkien Middle Earth invention, or variation of Erin
        • Description:

          In Tolkien's world, the derivation of this airy name is Elvish. Regular folks might consider it an artsier form of Erin, borne by cosmetics heiress and socialite Aerin Lauder.
      • Calyx
        • Cristalle
          • Description:

            Cristalle is a feminine name that appears to be a variant spelling of Crystal, derived from the Greek 'krystallos' meaning 'ice' or 'clear ice.' This French-influenced spelling adds an elegant twist to the nature-inspired name. The ending '-alle' gives it a sophisticated European flair compared to the more straightforward 'Crystal.' The name evokes qualities of clarity, purity, and natural beauty. Cristalle peaked in popularity during the 1980s when nature and gemstone names were trendy but has remained relatively uncommon. It may appeal to parents seeking a name with both natural associations and stylish sophistication. The name also has commercial associations through Chanel's Cristalle fragrance, adding a touch of luxury to its image.
        • Kilian
          • Origin:

            German variation of Cillian, Irish
          • Meaning:

            "war strife; church"
          • Description:

            This German spelling of the classic Irish Cillian is heard throughout Europe — it's a popular choice in France as well.
        • Nerolia
          • Olène
            • Anisia
              • Ambrette
                • Origin:

                  French, word name
                • Description:

                  Ambrette is the name of a French dessert pear, and also a West Indian hibiscus seed.
              • Yvresse
                • Nymphea
                  • Amaranthine
                    • Artemisia
                      • Origin:

                        Greek, variation of Artemis
                      • Description:

                        You might think Artemisia is the feminine form of the name, but in fact the original Artemis is feminine too, the name of the Greek mythological goddess of the moon. Artemisia Gentileschi was an esteemed Italian Baroque painter, unusual in an era when not many women were acknowledged. Artemisia is also a genus of plants which include sagebrush and tarragon.
                    • Calice
                      • Loulou
                        • Origin:

                          Diminutive of Louise or Louisa
                        • Description:

                          Loulou is more likely to be fashioned as Lulu today, but as a short form for any of the Louise names, Loulou is the more logical if more cumbersome spelling. Adorable, in either version.
                      • Aventus
                        • Cinnabar
                          • Origin:

                            Word name, English from Greek
                          • Meaning:

                            "deep red mineral"
                          • Description:

                            Associated with a vivid red-orange-colored lacquer, would make a more than distinctive color-related choice.
                        • Immortelle
