With a new season approaching, it’s not uncommon for women to put down their previously worn perfumes in favor of a fresh fragrance. And, now that autumn is almost here, ladies may be looking for a brand new scent.
Instead of shopping solely in the women’s department, however, why not dabble in the world’s of men’s fragrances? According to industry experts, the idea may not be that out-there.
"It’s like wearing your boyfriend’s shirt or his Rolex," industry expert Frédéric Malle told Allure magazine. "The paradox is that it makes a woman more feminine."
Designer (and perfumer) Tom Ford agrees. "Ultimately, choosing a scent is personal and primal, and should be decided not by gender, but by inhaling and asking, ‘Does it smell good to me? Does it smell good on me?’" he told the news source.
Women looking for a masculine fragrance have a plethora of options available to them, including scents from Tom Ford’s line, such as Grey Vetiver For Men Eau de Parfum Spray, which contains notes of grapefruit, sage and woods.
Ladies can also spritz on Armani Code For Men Eau de Toilette Spray before they head out the door. The fragrance boasts hints of citrus and olive tree blossom.

Women can wear men’s fragrances
Friday, September 10th, 2010Experts recommend perfect summertime scents
Friday, July 9th, 2010
Most women have their own strategies for picking their signature scent – some ladies prefer warm vanilla-based fragrances, while others opt for clean floral sprays. But when summertime rolls around, gals may want to switch their perfume to coincide with the hot season.
According to experts at Allure, citrus notes smell so fresh because they evaporate after approximately 10 minutes, making them a popular choice for summer scents. To increase longevity, women should look for citrus fragrances combined with florals.
While light aromas may be most popular, they are certainly not the only option for warm-weather scents. The news source reports that women can embrace deeper fragrances by selecting a woody scent with milky undertones, like CK One, by Calvin Klein, which has notes of nutmeg, musk and fresh pineapple.
Those who prefer natural scents can dab on perfumes that boast classic summertime notes. L`Occitane Jasmine Eau de Parfum is a light floral formula that is sure to conjure memories of seasons passed, while CLEAN Fresh Laundry for Women Eau de Parfum Spray includes notes of rose and freshly cut grass.

L’Occitane’s to-go kit is perfect for women on the move. It features a 1.7 ounce eau de toilette spray, a soft-scented lip balm and a peach-colored travel pouch. Those who carry the kit will find it easy to stay fresh despite the heat!
