The smell of perfume is a very personal thing, because it reflects your personality. And since we are all different, it makes sense to find a perfume that others do not use. Do not get us wrong, we love classics, but there is a whole world of unusual, unique aromas for women and men that you can explore.
We offer you the top 10 perfumes with the most unusual aromas in the world. Most of them should not be worn every day, but with any smell from our selection, you certainly will not go unnoticed in the crowd.
10. Lady Gaga Fame
In 2012, Lady Gaga shocked the world with the launch of her new Fame perfume. By mixing her own blood sample and donor's seed, as well as herbal extracts, Gaga tried to pass this madness off as an unusual odor. She explained that he would be reminded of a "dear prostitute."
“Tears of belladonna, the ground heart of a tiger orchid with a black veil of frankincense, chopped apricot in a combination of saffron essence and a drop of honey,” reads the inscription on the packaging of this strange and shocking perfume.
Following the sale of 30 million Fame bottles worldwide, the extravagant singer became $ 1.5 billion richer.
In addition to its smell and composition, these perfumes are unique in that they have a dark color in the bottle, and after application to the skin become completely colorless.
9. Bacon Cologne
Imagine fragrant, warm bacon in a 50 ml bottle! He was invented by the Parisian butcher John Fergine at the beginning of the 20th century. In his opinion, the smell of bacon in combination with herbs increased the mood of customers.
I don’t know about you, but I don’t like the idea when bacon is sprayed onto the body. After all, it should be inside the stomach, and not outside. And all the surrounding dogs, as well as hungry people, will show strong interest in the owner of such a perfume.
8. DZING!
Great circus performances must have inspired the creators of this amazing perfume.
It is assumed that the perfumery composition of caramel apples, sweaty circus performers, elephants and saddle skin smells great. Would you decide to use such perfumes?
7. Paper Passion
One of the most unusual fragrances in the world is the creation of the famous perfumer Gez Schoen, in collaboration with Karl Lagerfeld.
Paper Passion is suitable for men and women, and the main role in it is played by a woody chord. According to reviews of those who used the "book perfume", this is a moderately loop perfume that sits close to the skin.
The smell of these spirits recalls a brand new book that has just left the printing house. The perfect bibliophile gift, right?
6. Garage Comme des Garcons
Perfumers at Comme Des Garcons - the creators of this very strange fragrance - are convinced that kerosene, leather and plastic are excellent perfume ingredients. Well, those who use these perfumes will always have the answer to the question “Where have you been?” Of course, in the garage, even if there is actually no garage.
5. Eau de Stilton
And these perfumes are perfect for those who always wanted to smell like moldy cheese. The inspiration for their creation was Stilton, an English blue cheese.
By the way, the bacteria present in blue cheese are the same ones that are responsible for the miasma exuded by sweaty feet. Disgusting? Well, it should be so!
4. Secretions Magnifiques by Etat Libre d`Orange
Many fans of unusual perfumes already know the name of these perfumes. The idea of their creation, owned by Antoine Lee, was to make an aroma-portrait of the human intestine at a time when it is in a state of intense excitement, whether it be panic or orgasm.
The base notes of the fragrance are four S:
- Sperme,
- Sueur,
- Salive
- Sang,
that is, "sperm, sweat, saliva and blood" in French.
And, despite such an unappetizing description, who dared to try this perfume on their body, they assure that its smell reminds of metal, salty sea and algae. If you have an extra 7,370 rubles, you can check for yourself whether these reviews are true, because these perfumes are sold in Russia.
3. Muscs Koublaï Khän
Reading reviews and impressions of Serge Lutens Muscs Koublaï Khan can be both intimidating and fun. Just think of “the armpit of a camel driver who has not been near running water for a week!”. Or about the smell of a cat tray. Or about a zoo in a third world country.
On the other hand, if you like the sensual richness of animalistic notes, then be sure to try these perfumes. According to their connoisseurs, they open on the skin with the scent of wildness, sensuality, animal sexuality and aggressiveness.
In addition to musk, Serge Lutens perfume contains notes of caraway seeds, cibetin (secretions from the glands of civet, from the feces of which coffee beans are used to prepare one of the most expensive types of coffee in the world) and the root of the kostus, which smells of not quite fresh hair.
2. Vulva Original
This is a flavored spray, the smell of which resembles the one that "is produced by movement and sweating in the intimate zone of a woman."
According to the manufacturer, the fragrance Vulva has erotic, slightly sweaty, urinary notes and, most importantly, it is organic.
1. The Malignant Dreams of Cthulhu in Love
The first place in the list of perfumes with the most unusual smell was given to the perfume created in honor of Cthulhu.
“A creeping, moist, slippery odor oozing from algae, ocean plants and dark, incomprehensible waters,” says Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab, who made the perfume.
The fragrance features incense, salt, seawater and seaweed, and, unexpectedly, Mexican chocolate. Well, if Cthulhu ever wakes up and rises from the depths, we know what he will smell like.
