Best-Smelling Hair Product No. 5: Show Beauty Premiere Dry Shampoo, $35
Aside from being a fantastic dry shampoo in a wildly luxurious bottle, this product also smells like heaven — if heaven were a treasure trove of decadent desserts coated in caramel. If you love warm, rich, sweet scents (and clean and volumized yet shiny hair), add this dry shampoo to your vanity.

Best-Smelling Hair Product No. 4: IGK Hot Girls Hydrating Shampoo, $25
The new hair brand IGK was created by a trio of supercool stylists from New York, Los Angeles and Miami. Products are categorized by city, and each has a signature scent that reflects the women from each location. While New York is sophisticated and Los Angeles is fresh, Miami takes home the fragrance prize. This shampoo smells like a sexy, fruity cocktail with guava, coconut water and pink lotus, and after you wash your hair the scent lasts for days.

Best-Smelling Hair Product No. 3: Moroccanoil Treatment Original
The smell of Moroccanoil's original treatment is like a beauty junkie's own special version of catnip. It blends the musky sweetness of argan oil with natural smells like wood and tropical flowers to create a luxurious, Mediterranean scent like no other. I could huff this stuff all day long.

Best-Smelling Hair Product No. 2: Herbal Essences Smooth Collection Shampoo, $4.49
The orgasming ladies in those '90s commercials certainly made us feel awkward in between watching episodes of "Friends" with our parents — but we still wanted our hair to smell like Herbal Essences and only Herbal Essences. The brand's Smooth Collection Shampoo is still available, and we love the rosy floral scent just as much as we did when we had to ask mom to buy it for us.

Best-Smelling Hair Product No. 1: Oribe Dry Texturizing Spray, $46
If heaven exists and it doesn't smell like Oribe's texture spray, then I don't want to go there. The product's signature scent is legend and has spawned perfumes and candles in its image. The divine combo of watermelon, lychee and edelweiss flower extracts are what we want our hair to smell like all day, everyday.
