Hi people!
I have secret … I sometimes wear male perfume Smile

Azzuro- it’s my boyfriend’s and I yes, I wear it sometimes. He never said anything- he notices when I spray, but he just smiles, and he agrees it smells good. Anyway, I don’t go out usually wearing his perfume, I wear it just at home.
What do you think about male perfumes on women?

It depends what perfume is like. Some smell feminine some on the other hand are spicy and too sharp for women to wear it. I like Hugo Boss-Boss. It doesn’t smell feminine at all, but I like it. Not only on man, but also when I wear it Smile

so, you’re not the only one Smile

I think it is perfectly right if woman wears male perfume- as long as the scent is good. Anyway, most women wear sweet, fruity, bla, bla perfumes. Some of us like more sharp-spicy and musky ones, and so it happens that those scents are ‘reserved for men’- we women like it too!

I read somewhere that male perfumes are designed to attract both men and women, because both will buy it?

There were times when all male perfumes smelled the same- raw, spicy, either musky or patchouli scent. I think in recent years male perfumes are designed more women-like. Fruity and fresh scents and not so much or just a bit spicy, scents that are not so obvious to be masculine scents. Hugo Boss- Boss goes back in 20 years with blend of citrus and tangy apple with woody tones of sandalwood. More recent ‘Reaction’ by Kenneth Cole for example represents combination of grapefruit, green apple, mandarin, melon rind, patchouli, musk, and muguet. Interesting and not so male perfumes.
