UNISEX fragrances are the way forward
Usually the first thing we all splurged on us in the morning, after shower or in a store, is our favorite fragrance. Of course there are a ton of fragrances out there that are popular for both men and women. However, we’ve compiled a list of unique, unisex and most importantly one of a kind smells for you to try next time you’re on a hunt for a fragrance.
Maison Margiela –Replica Fragrances
The Replica fragrances come in Eau de Toilette and Eau de Parfum. There is also the filter fragrances a sort of layering scent and the untitled fragrance. The basis for all the Replica fragrances is that they replicate a memory essentially, like their scent Flower Market or Beach Walk. I find that most of these smells do evoke a familiar scent however only a few of them truly stand out. Personally my favorite is the Eau de Toilette –by the Fireplace, described as burning wood and chestnut.
This scent has a beautiful depth of woody smell with a slightly sweet top note. Definitely a winter/autumn scent. Another favorite from the replica range is Jazz Club described as heady cocktails and cigars, this is a more citrusy smell than -by the Fireplace but it lacks that sweet note.
Escentric molecules-Molecule fragrances
Originally this line had launched with Molecule 01 the most popular and my favorite of the bunch. The fragrances are based around a single ingredient, which reacts with your natural pheromones giving out a unique “tailored” made scent. Even if I tried I cannot accurately describe this scent, however is a beautiful unisex scent and a decent price point.
Jo Malone- Cologne & Intense
Jo Malone has over 20 scents of beautiful fragrances with botanical, citrus and other accents. I cannot really recommend just one since I think they are peculiar scents and each is special in its own way. Wood sage and sea salt is an easy going woody scent whereas Oud & Bergamont is deep, citrusy and more pronounced. When it comes to Jo Malone, definitely visit a counter and pick a scent that is personal to you.

Russian Leather by Molton Brown
If you love warm and deep fragrances, the new Molton Brown Collection “Russian Leather” is all you are looking for. Inspired by the 17th century Russian leather-making craft and is a great scent for winter and probably the best Christmas Gift for men.
The Russian Leather collection has a mixture of ingredients that creates a perfect balance between the smoky sweet yet spicy notes. The basil and Siberian pine make the scent and balance out the denseness of birch.
It is ideal for anyone, including myself, who enjoys heavier scents. Although Russian Leather is
considered one of the deepest leather scents, it feels surprisingly quite fresh on the skin.
