Many people ask me : what perfume should I wear male or female?
What is the difference? Although the history of perfumery dates back to ancient times, the difference between a perfume for men and women is actually relatively new. Originally, fragrant products from plants (wood, roots, mosses, flowers, etc.) are used in the same way by men and women. The sexualization of perfume stems from the hygienism that invaded Europe in the late nineteenth century.
Because during the previous century, men of the high society were not afraid to lack virility by perfuming themselves with flowery fragrances! The rise of American marketing in the 50’s will eventually accentuate this gender distinction and the difference between a perfume for men and women, persuading noses that a perfume must be for her or for him. A word of advice: Perfume is all about subjectivity, only your feeling matters. So keep your ideas and nose open, be bold and indulge yourself!
