Unisex fragrances

Unisex fragrances are scents anyone can wear comfortably, balanced so they are neither very sweet and floral nor very sharp and aromatic; this list shows the most popular unisex perfumes. That balance usually comes from shared ground like woods, musk, citrus, iris, incense, leather and tea. A large part of niche perfumery works this way, so you will also find some less conventional scents here.

When choosing a unisex fragrance, go by how it makes you feel rather than by the label. The same scent can open differently on different skin: woodier on dry skin, sweeter and louder on oilier skin. Wearing it on your skin for a few hours before buying is the most reliable test. If you are looking for a fragrance to share with a partner, this list is a good place to start. It features perfumes classed as unisex, sorted by popularity.
