7 Best Perfumes For Women That Men Love | V Perfumes (2025)

I read once that perfumes made for men were initially created for women and vice versa. The purpose of this switch was for the perfume wearer to attract the opposite sex, and as we all know, sex appeal sells.

Therefore, as someone who finds more appeal in unisex perfumes and prefers to wear deep and warm fragrances over feminine ones (that is not to say I don’t have favorite fragrances that are feminine, I absolutely do!), I always wonder what types of perfume men prefer for their female partners to wear.

Quite frankly, as a woman, I have no idea what men prefer, and every time I discuss fragrances (feminine or masculine), I talk about what aspects of them I prefer most of the time. So, I went to my male coworkers for help with this one.

Our team of experts includes fragrance developers, promoters, sellers, and others. I couldn’t have found a better team to help me with my ever-so-urgent inquiry: What Women’s Perfumes Do Men Love? I gathered their unique insights, and I’m sharing them with you.

1. Prada Paradox EDP

The one that was mentioned the most was Paradoxe by Prada, an amber floral that is best for the spring. The most prominent scents are the white florals and citrus notes. But, what men are primarily attracted to in this perfume is the sweetness and the vanilla in the base.

I know that vanilla is deemed an attractive scent. When added to a perfume, it adds a hint of sensuality and is found in most gourmand perfumes. I can see why this was mentioned more than once. I’ve tried it a few times on different occasions and found it quite appealing.

2. Carolina Herrera Good Girl EDP

The second most mentioned was Good Girl by Carolina Herrera, alongside all its variants. Others that were mentioned from this line were Very Good Girl, Good Girl Legere, and Good Girl Supreme.

Good Girl is a well-loved fragrance among many, and it is also one of my personal favorites. What I love about this perfume is the hint of coffee. Apart from that, this is a very well-rounded fragrance. The sweetness here comes from the tonka beans and vanilla in the base. The patchouli note in the base enhances this fragrance’s allure and sensuality while also extending its longevity.

I only have one issue with this fragrance, which is the bottle’s shape, but there is a solution to this. Get yourself a perfume atomizer. This way, you can still enjoy this fragrance and have it on hand at all times without having to deal with the annoying perfume bottle. This can also be used on your other fragrances that come in bulky bottles.

3. Thomas Kosmala No.4 Apres L’Amour EDP

Next, we have Apres L’amour by Thomas Kosmala. This one initially surprised me since it’s not a fragrance we hear about much. But yet again, there was a reason I turned to the experts for this.

The musky grounding base stands out in this fragrance. Apres L’amour is a naturally comforting fragrance and surely stands out as a niche fragrance that only a true perfumista can appreciate. It is warm, spicy, and alluring.

4. JPG La Belle Le Parfum Intense EDP

La Belle Le Parfum by Jean Paul Gaultier is a simple and straightforward fragrance. Pear, Vanilla, and Tonka. That’s it.
Sometimes, less is more, and this is one of those cases. Although this fragrance is composed of simple notes, it is still loved by many and manages to stand out in any perfume selection, no matter how various.

I agree with the men on this one. I also really like the bottle shapes of most of the Jean Paul Gaultier fragrances, and this is one of them. I believe that it will beautify any vanity.

5. Mark Des Vince Fabulous EDP

Fabulous is one of the best-selling women’s perfumes by Mark Des Vince, a UAE-based brand that creates affordable perfumes that can compete with designer brands in quality and performance.

Fabulous is a sweet floral fragrance that is soft and subtle. Unlike the other fragrances on this list, this one is soft in its sensuality. It is feminine and elegant in its fragrance, as well as in its packaging.

6. Xerjoff Erba Pura For Unisex EDP

Why go to Sicily when a whiff of this perfume will take you there? Erba Pura by Xerjoff embodies the largest Mediterranean island’s citrus fruits and rich history in every note from top to base.

A unisex perfume that will make it to anyone’s favorites list. I personally hadn’t tried this fragrance before our team suggested it, and when I did, I felt like I had been truly missing out on one of the best perfumes that I had ever come across. As a seasonal perfume, It ticks all the boxes for the ideal summer scent; it is fresh, sweet, and fruity. It just might be my next perfume purchase.

Finally, don’t forget that the best women’s perfumes that men love are the ones that smell good on you. There is no right or wrong about perfume; it is just what smells good TO YOU. Have fun, take risks, and enjoy sampling and layering different scents to craft your signature perfume.
