Unisex perfumes: when the androgynous trend enters the perfumery aisle
The term androgynous means masculine (“andros”) and feminine (“gyné”). It defines the link between men and women. This concept also seems to have made its way into the world of fashion for some years now. Moreover, more and more designers are striving to blur the lines between the feminine gender and the masculine style. The androgynous look is therefore asserting itself a little more year after year, changing our own codes and opening up our transgender vision a little further. This trend also seems to have spread to the world of perfumery. Focus on unisex perfumes, also called mixed fragrances.

WoodyWhat is a unisex or mixed perfume?
A unisex perfume is defined as a fragrance that can accompany a men's wardrobe just as well as a women's. These are juices that most often combine woody scents, rather masculine, with floral and powdery odors, rather feminine. This combination usually results in a light outcome. Likewise, other unisex compositions are based on marine and very fresh accords. They are enhanced, in this case, with peppermint or rosemary, ingredients equally appreciated by women and men. Finally, fruity and spicy notes are also tonalities that are difficult to classify into a particular gender and are also associated with unisex perfumes.
The origins of unisex perfumes
Unisex perfumes first appeared in the 90s. Specifically, they owe their existence to the famous designer Calvin Klein. It was he who had the idea of developing this genre, starting in 1995, with the appearance of the iconic CK One. As expected, it immediately appealed to an entire generation. It met with immense success and its notes of bergamot, pineapple and spices sold to the tune of 15 million bottles in barely a year on the market. Aimed more particularly at a generation of 16-25 year olds, it can boast of having paved the way for many other androgynous perfumes. What is more, this style can be an excellent gift for Valentine's Day. It proves to be one more object to share as a couple, thus highlighting your many common points and revealing your relationship in an original way. Although unisex perfumes are intended for both men and women, make no mistake, you could very well be seduced by a unisex perfume while being very feminine. Likewise, gentlemen, your virility will not be diminished by wearing such a perfume. So, if you are tempted by the possible choice of a unisex fragrance for your next purchase, here is something to guide you in finding, in just a few clicks, the fragrance that best matches your expectations...
