10 Gender-Neutral Fragrances That Work On Anybody

info@hypebae.com (Hypebae)  Wed, 02 Apr 2025  Hypebae

Fragrance can blur the traditional boundaries of femininity and masculinity by overlapping and intertwining traditional conventions. Finding a scent that is truly your own is the embodiment of a spectrum of notes that are both traditionally feminine and masculine, not one or the other. In a gender-diverse and inclusive world, consumers are looking to buy into beauty that represents them on all fronts — with fragrance as the story of scent telling the bulk of our day-to-day lives.

Are you in the market for a new gender-neutral scent? Below, we're rounding up 10 of the season's most loved fragrances for you to bookmark, from Maison Francis Kurkdjian's "724" to Jo Malone's "Ginger Biscuit."

Maison Francis Kurkdjian "724" Eau du Parfum

It's giving clean white linen, fresh out of the wash. This genderless scent is perfect for those who enjoy the sensorial experience of raw and urban notes, such as sandalwood and jasmine, tied together with white florals.

Jo Malone London "Ginger Biscuit" Cologne

Jo Malone London found a way to make holiday gingerbread smell sexy. The notes of ginger, vanilla and hazelnut give anything but your favorite hot drink from Starbucks, but rather a luxe experience that will have you inhaling yourself (or someone else) for more.

One thing Kilian Hennessy knows how to do is make a seductive fragrance. The name of the scent tells you everything you need to know; the bourbon vanilla mixed with tobacco is the spice and sexiness anyone would ever need. Whether you're scouting a potential at a cigar lounge or spritzing on for a walk around the grocery, you will be noticed.

The brand may be named Boy Smells, but there's nothing boyish about its smells. "Woodphoria" features traditional masculine notes of sandalwood and cedarwood, but what powers the scent is the salted mucks and floral medley. It's not too strong to be worn during the day and gives you the perfect "ummph" for the evening.

Louis Vuitton crafted this scent to make sure you don't know who's in the room, but you will know someone is there when your nose comes across the oud, jasmine, orange blossom and rose notes of this fragrance.

Jean Paul Gaultier "La Beau Intense" Eau de Parfum

Even though it may be for "les beaus," we think that Jean Paul Gaultier's latest scent can be worn by anybody. With notes of pineapple, ginger and sandalwood, it plays on contrasts— fresh and spicy, sharp yet inviting.

Stora Skuggan's "Thumbsucker" works no matter your gender identity, playing on the sweetness of honey and narcissus to lay on the body delicately as a skin enhancer.

Loewe "Earth" Eau de Parfum

Loewe's "Earth" is as grounding as it is ethereal, blending notes of cassius, musk and pear to wear on the skin beautifully.

Frederic Malle "Carnal Flower" Eau de Parfum

"Carnal Flower" by Frederic Malle moves past gender norms with its broad appeal. Built with notes of musk, sandalwood and orange blossom, its popularity spans the past 20 years, launching in 2005.
