"Eau du Sud" by Annick Goutal has that effect on me. And coffee.
Lol! I wonder if anyone has made a good coffee perfume... I will check out Goutal's line, coffee or not.

Jasmine also has a powerful effect on moods (check out clinical trials on it) but I find it mellower and more comforting.
Still, very good to inject some positive outlook during those grey winter days.
Oh, I had no idea and will definitely look up some! I love jasmine, even the radioactive GM strain of the "Alien" family, and wonder if this is the reason why I love those fragrances.
For me, Versace's "Versense" works really well. Not too crisp or sour, has some fig/wood complexity to it underneath the citrus, and lucky for me it is widely available and affordable
