Sabrina Carpenter's New Perfume Is for Anyone Who Loves the Smell of Coffee

Sabrina Carpenter has had quite the year, revealing a new Marilyn Monroe-gone-pop look, performing at the industry’s most-watched events, and debuting chart-topping hits like "Please Please Please," "Taste," and "Espresso."

It’s the latter song that really catapulted her into fame over the last 365 days, though, and the one-year anniversary of the song launch lines up perfectly with her newest fragrance, “Me Espresso Eau de Parfum.” We chatted with the perfume formulator to learn all about what went into this delicious, coffee-infused scent.
A Coffee Gourmand With a Floral Twist
Like Sabrina Carpenter herself, Me Espresso is bold, sweet, and vibrant. It’s got an energizing vibe via espresso bean and is infused with cocoa powder, buttery biscotti, caramel, and sugared amber—the perfect latte order if you ask us. Add a little bit of night-blooming jasmine and vanilla orchid and you’ve got yourself the perfect balance of creamy sweetness, floral sophistication, and a toasty coffee kick.

“Each [note] was chosen to create a scent that unfolds beautifully throughout the day—much like the experience of enjoying a rich espresso,” says Gil Clavien, the nose behind the scent and principal perfumer at DSM-Firmenich. “The notes were carefully layered to offer both immediate impact and lasting depth, combining sweetness, warmth, and a touch of floral elegance to make it feel indulgent yet wearable.”
She adds that “Me Espresso” was inspired by that first sip of coffee—the way it wakes you up, makes you feel cozy and warm, and gives you a little zing before you take on the day. It’s all about capturing that ritual and turning it into something you can wear. The fragrance was also, clearly, inspired by Sabrina Carpenter’s hit single, and the scent helps bring that vibe to life.

“The song is about a woman who is so amazing she keeps a man awake and we wanted a scent to embody that,” Clavien says. “Me Espresso is for anyone who wants their fragrance to feel like a little boost of confidence. It’s perfect for those who love warm, cozy scents with a sweet twist, and who see fragrance as part of their personal style.”
If you’re someone who’s drawn to gourmand fragrances then it’s a great pick to add to your rotation, and if you’re someone who’s curious about this unique fusion of coffee, sweets, and florals coming together then you have to give it a whiff, as well.
