Male fragrance sections at shops are always so sad. Would you like to smell like you just downed a bottle of gin, like a leather couch, or like you were sitting on the wrong side of a campfire? Women get all the nice fruits and flowers. This stuff shouldn’t be gendered anyway like most things.

@Gargron there are the gender neutral ones too with vanilla and citrus
@Gargron Dudes. D00ds!
Mawaan had the last word on this.

@Gargron I feel the same in the clothes sections. Why do only women get to wear colors and patterns?
@Gargron I actually craft custom scents for people. My husband smells like cinnamon and citrus and ocean water. And everything I make is non toxic ✨
This is why I only use Patchouli ...
@Gargron Maybe this is gay thing but leather and campfire scents sound nice & hot, I wouldn't want my man smelling like artificial flowers and discount fruit juice. Or maybe it's the association where I find camping fun (smell of smoke) vs grocery store scents (I don't like masses of people) and pollen allergies (flowers).
No parfyme is always best though, people with good hygiene and natural (unique) scent is unmatched.
But in the end, nobody else has say in which shelf you buy stuff from.
@Gargron My husband loves Commes des Garçons. They don’t do the “gender” split https://comme-des-garcons-parfum.com/
@Gargron Labels and marketing strategies around fragrances are ridiculous. I share a set of unisex fragrances by Aesop with my female partner ranging from "earthy" to "floral".
@Gargron Males in the wild also seem to more frequently use overtly offensive fragrances in quantities that would kill a small horse.
Must be the same dynamic that motivates them to drive loud, oversized vehicles.
@Gargron
Mann könnte sich ja auch ein Frauen Parfüm benutzen, wenn ihm das mehr zusagt.
@Gargron Real men wear whatever they want.
Male fashion in general is like this.
Women have all manner of clothes and accessories. Walk by 10 women on the street, and you will see 10 outfits.
Walk by 10 men on the street, on the other hand, and you will see 1 outfit: pants, a T-shirt, and maybe some kind of jacket. On rare occasions you'll see a business suit. And if you see more than one business suit, all of them will look exactly the same. Not a single accessory between the lot of them, unless earbuds count.
Boring!
@Gargron You like a scent marketed for women, you got and use it! Scents have no gender. Perfume called Hommage a Homme is great on me (a woman), my husband uses my Perles perfume and it'd gorgeous on him...
@Gargron just buy the fragrances that smell nice to you. Doesn't matter if it's gendered, you can choose to live beyond that limitation imposed on your by some corporate execs at big fragrance.
Be free!
I'm a sucker for fruity / minty aromas, and I'm surprised they're so unpopular compared to the boring musks for men
