On June 10th, 2023, fragrance designers, perfumers, influencers, and enthusiasts from across the world gathered in Orange County, California for one of the most anticipated days of the year in the fragrance industry. Since launching the awards in 2020, the Golden Pineapple Fragrance Awards results have been the talk of the internet and social media. Moreover, insiders have noted that the Golden Pineapple Fragrance Awards tend to be a great predictor as winners would often go on to win other awards. This year, with our first live event, interest in the awards increased tenfold.
As visitors found themselves on Pinappos with no answers, all they could do was wait. That wait is over.
While the results have since been shared on Instagram and all across social media, below is the official list of this year’s prestigious Golden Pineapple winners as well as the historic winners of fragrance awards’ past.
Congratulations to all our winners! This was a tremendous event and we look forward to making history once again when we return in 2024.
