Since her television debut over a decade ago, Sydney Sweeney has had a superb rise into one of Hollywood's most recognisable faces. Best known for playing Cassie Howard in Euphoria, her stardom has also turned her into a source of fashion, beauty and even car inspiration (she’s a trained mechanic who restores vintage vehicles) for women across the globe. Good news, then, that we know exactly what she smells like – and even better news that her favourite perfume is currently on sale. 

The actress' go-to fragrance is the Armani My Way Le Parfum, which she loves both for its feminine notes and because it has a nostalgic quality for her. She told Glamour: “It really represents a lot of who I am and who I wanna be. The vanilla reminds me of cooking with my grandma, making cookies. Or of home because I love vanilla – I have vanilla candles everywhere! So I feel like I'm always home and cosy with it."

Since its launch in 2023 as a more intense take on the original My Way Eau de Parfum, the perfume has become a massive hit. It opens with a bright fusion of calabrian bergamot and orange blossom before melting into a velvety middle of solar Indian tuberose and fresh French iris pallida. The scent then settles into a powdery base of cedarwood and vanilla vanilla, with the woody base adding a depth to the overall scent that reminds Sydney, 28, of growing up by a lake. She added: "I grew up outdoors and hiking and exploring and campfires, so a lot of aspects of the perfume are truly who I am.”

You don’t just have to take Sydney’s word for it. My Way Le Parfum has rave reviews on the Sephora website – which also happens to be where it’s part of a special sale. To get a discounted bottle, you need to sign up to the MySephora Loyalty programme (it’s free to do this) which will give you access to the MySephoraSale.

Sephora UK’s MySephoraSale is a rare sitewide discount event across makeup, skincare, haircare and fragrance. It's currently happening and the discounts are added automatically to your basket at checkout. The discount level depends on what kind of member you are to the MySephora Loyalty programme: gold members get up to 25% off, silver members get up to 20% off and bronze members get up to 15% off.

One glowing review on My Way Le Parfum says: "I remember the time when I got a small 2ml sample of Armani My Way from a shop and I eagerly sprayed them all over my hair. The fragrance lingered in my hair even after two washes. The scent is sophisticated and sweet with hints of clean, citrusy notes. Anyone five feet away can immediately sense the scent and for me, that is a win.”

Another reads: “This is such a lovely perfume; subtle but noticeable. I do like floral perfumes so My Way is to my liking. It has vanilla, orange blossom, Jasmine and white musks, which are beautifully blended to create that overall vanilla floral scent. I sprayed it in the morning and could still smell it by the evening.”
