Fragrance Files - GENDER FLUID
Who's the say what a woman or man should smell like? The coolest new scents occupy neutral territory.
Why do men and women pefer different fragrances? ... By the time the commercial fragrance industry exploded, post-World War II, gender distinctions were in place - and marketing just reinforced them. "When Marilyn Monroe came along and said all she wore to bed was Chanel No.5, perfume became connected to sexuality and glamour, which really changed things," says [Rachel] Herz [a psychologist and neuroscientist at Brown University who studies the sense of smell]. The sexual disparity continued throughout the '70s and '80s, as men's and women's fashion labels developed branded scents: Cacharel, maker of silky, flowered blouses, had lily-and-hyacinth-scented Anais Anais; Stetson, famed for leather boots and 10-gallon hats, did a musky, woody cologne. ...

Cacharel Anais Anais Perfume
Worldly Scents
[A]s French-Armenian fragrance maker Francis Kurkdjian puts it, "Perfume is as much part of the culture as food and wine; it's a part of life." French tradition involve taking young girls of 12 or 13 to shop for their very first perfume - Kurkdjian remembers his sister's first bottle of Anais Anais by Cacharel -- and they grow up learning how to dab perfume on their pulse points: the neck, the wrists, behind the knees. Later in life, the ritual becomes "part of seduction," explains Kurkdjian. "It's very intimate."
