Good day to you, Since we need to save a lot now a days, there are times, I need to check some cheap brands that I can use as an alternative to the usual things that I am buying. However, though I am now using an alternative brands for the sake of saving money, I am still hesitant to buy a substitute brand in terms of buying a perfume. Eventhough it is branded but it is somehow unisex (can be use by both - men and women), still, I am quite hesitant to use it. Hence, I am thinking, what if the scent of the unisex perfume has been smelled from a guy then after sometime it will be smelled from a woman. They might conclude that, the lady is using a guy perfumes or vice versa. If you were on my shoe, would you go and buy for a unisex (can be use by a man or woman) perfume just to save money?

So what if someone thinks a woman is using a man's fragrance or vice versa? I dont care if its supposed to be for male or female. If I like the smell, I'll use it.

Yeah, I totally would, cause I don't really like perfumes that are too flowery and too girly, I like those that are somekinda masculine that's why I would definitely go for unisex perfumes, cause they fit the smell that I really like.

if anything I think that the vast majority of perfumes are quite unisex, even if they don't specify so. there's a really in depth book of different perfume reviews, and I think it was either Brut or Old Spice, both thought of as quite out-dated mens scents now, that the reviewer says is one of the most beautifully put together perfumes for a woman that there is. so sometimes even just going for a mans scent would mean you are wearing something very unique and beautiful. men and womens skin chemistry tends to react very differently with the same scents. so if you're worried that someone would have smelt it on a man and would recognise it, it's really not very likely. and also, every individual persons skin chemistry is different too, regardless of gender, and the same scent can be remarkably different on different people. I love smelling perfumes I know on other people and seeing the differences. but what it really comes down to, if you like it, it doesn't matter WHO it was designed for.

Oh yes why not? I would surely go for a unisex perfume, as any member of my family can use it. And well I dont care so much about what people will make out about me and what will they think, trust me, they wont think anything like that and they may not even notice it because most of them are busy worrying about their own self and after all when you are using a unisex perfume and not a guy's perfume, I dont think there is anything like such to worry about.

Sure, some of them smell great, and I even used to use one already. CKOne it was called, by Calvin Klein. It was great! So I am all for it! Just make sure you love the smell!

Hi Airasheila!. I think I don't mind of I like the smell. I think a perfumes thats really matters is not the price but how well the scent bond with you. I never getting a long with Chanel perfumes its makes me dizzy, I like perfumes thats smell refreshing and not to sweet. Sometimes I buy men perfumes if I like the smell like Dunhill blue or Dafidov for men. But my favorite is still JLO live.
