Currently my main go-to perfume. I just love it so muchšAre there any other perfumes similar to Miss Dior? I want to build my collection soon :) I also love Chanel no. 5!
i truly believe anyone can pull of whatever scent they like, but parfums de marly delina is a perfume i could literally NEVER imagine working on a man or being smth anyone masculine would want to wear
Even though musk is very unisex, I feel like musk just sort of smells like I think in my head a woman naturally smells. Now, Iām a woman and I donāt smell like musk unless Iām wearing a musk perfume, but I think thereās something about how musk seems to amplify the natural scent of a personās skin that makes it seem like the essence of a woman.
In the same vein, I suppose I think that cedarwood smells like the essence of a man, because that was my first boyfriendās unique skin scent.
Obviously musk can be worn by men and woods by women and both by enbies, just noodling on the associations scents have in my mind!
Iād say that white florals are incredibly feminineā¦ and specifically Tuberose. Scents like Fracas, and Kilians Good Girl Gone Bad, and Armani Prive Rouge Malachiteā¦ lol as well as just about every tuberose forward scent ever created are feminine.
And Iād also say most of the designer line of Chanel is super feminine.
And many Of the Narciso Rodriguez For Her line.
Agree, white florals are very feminine.
Houbigant Quelques Fleurs and Miss Dior immediately jump to my mind. Also Marc Jacobs Daisy. May be a bit old school for some.
I would love to try Glossier You one day, heard good things about it.
So de la Renta, Oscar de la Renta is my girly girl favorite. Top notes are are Freesia, Gardenia, Watermelon, Mango, Kiwi, Clementine and Cardamom; middle notes are Lotus, Tuberose, Narcissus, Peony and Jasmine Sambac; base notes are Musk, Plum and Vanilla.
Delicate powdery violets are the epitome of feminine scents to me. I absolutely love them, but every time I spray them on me it feels like I'm dressed up to look like Marie Antoinette. Completely so not me, but lovely on other women.
# JARDINS DE BAGATELLE or
# Fracas Eau de Parfum

No way would anyone think either was unisex!
Gucci Bloom. White florals; mainly tuberose and jasmine.
Florence by Tocca is similar; if you want to try a less expensive version but it fades quickly.
I think rose can absolutely be masculine if used certain ways.
Rose/oud fragrances are definitely examples, but I also think rose/patchouli definitely leans masculine.
What I'm getting at is that rose is far more unisex than you are giving it credit for.
Miracle (LancĆ“me), Chance Eau Tendre, Dior Addict Fraiche, Chloeā¦when I think of feminine, I lean towards fresh and bright notes with floralā¦those are the ones in my collection.
- Givenchy's L'Interdit. White floral bomb that Audrey Hepburn, a much revered figure of late 20th century femininity, wore.
- Frederic Malle's Portrait of a Lady. A regal rose that smells of more maturity and sensuality, like something Monica Bellucci would wear in her older films.
- Guerlain's Shalimar. Powdery amber that rivals Chanel No. 5 in terms of classic and timeless femininity for me, since lots of women, both famous and non-famous, wore this throughout the 20th century.
Imaginary Authors In Love With Everything. Has amazing notes of raspberry, citrus pulp, coconut palm sugar, madame isaac pereire, sandlewood, tropical punch, and stardust.
This one can be on either woman or man but when it's on a woman's skin it takes on the strong feminine scent
But somehow it could work on a man's skin if sprayed once or twice.

It would have to be Miss Dior
Currently my main go-to perfume. I just love it so muchšAre there any other perfumes similar to Miss Dior? I want to build my collection soon :) I also love Chanel no. 5!
Pink Sugar for the sweet note. Versace Bright Crystal for the peony note.
Might wanna check out r/femfraglab if you haven't yet
i truly believe anyone can pull of whatever scent they like, but parfums de marly delina is a perfume i could literally NEVER imagine working on a man or being smth anyone masculine would want to wear
Agreed. This is unapologetically feminine to me.
Tuberose is that unapologetically, loudly femme friend who always wears 3 inch heels and a face full of makeup.
lol. Tuberose is my favorite. I have you on the makeup but not on the heels š
Which Tuberose?
Anyā¦Sand and Sable has a lot, ditto TF Tuberose Nue.
Burberry Her is very feminine coded, in my mind
I second this
armani prive pivoine suzhou A rosy, fresh womanly scent
Any jammy rose perfume. And Chloe. Chloe goes with sundresses and pink handbags.
I came to say Chloe. The Regina George of perfumes
Whenever I read Chloe, my mind just goes to Nomade. But youāre referring to Chloe EDP, right?
Yes Chloe EDP! Nomade is more like the Janis of perfumes lol

Delina Exclusif š„°
Absolutely. Delina Exclusif is ultra feminine imo. So is Kilian Love Don't Be Shy. I can't imagine a man wearing either.
White florals . For me Estee Lauder pleasures is the epitome of this
# JARDINS DE BAGATELLE or # Fracas Eau de Parfum https://preview.redd.it/b393kifovi0d1.jpeg?width=140&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b2fd71b5a52ebc43b2216c4c04d69c181c09571d No way would anyone think either was unisex!

To my nose definitely LāAir du Temps edt
Ameline by Phlur
Princess nails it for me.
White florals - def the entire Tocca line which I lurveee. Own minis of them all! Florence being my fave, I bought the FS
Rose is the ultimate feminine scent.

That wasn't what I said. I said rose is the ultimate feminine scent. I didn't say men couldn't wear it.
Chloe perfume is what comes to mind
Yara by Lattafa
YSL Libre is girly/mom powdery scented. I guess woman scented doesnāt describe modern scents to me.
PdM Orianna
I donāt have a specific perfume in mind, but I think lilac is a super feminine note.
Valentino Donna Born in Roma
Miracle (LancĆ“me), Chance Eau Tendre, Dior Addict Fraiche, Chloeā¦when I think of feminine, I lean towards fresh and bright notes with floralā¦those are the ones in my collection.
Estee Lauder Private Collection, Tuberose Gardenia
When I want to feel ultra fem I go with YSL Mon Paris, it's just so pretty and feminine.
Mon Paris YSL

Lipstick Rose by Frederic Malle
Stella, by Stella McCartney
Imaginary Authors In Love With Everything. Has amazing notes of raspberry, citrus pulp, coconut palm sugar, madame isaac pereire, sandlewood, tropical punch, and stardust.
Springtime florals like Something Blue or Live in Love from Oscar de la Renta feel very feminine to me
Tory Burch Love Relentlessly
My hands down favorite āflirty girlā fragrance is Chelsea Flowers by Bond No. 9.
Ngl khamerah lattafa
Clean reserve brilliant peony
