I have 3 perfume's I love to wear: Vampire, Heat and Navy.
Navy has been likened to baby powder, which, since I was living as male at the time, got comments like "Did you powder your B@!!$?"
Heat has a spicy scent. It's by Beyonce. And Vampire has more of a berry scent.  Deodorant-wise I use Secret.

While I am really MTF not androgyne, I figure I might as well weigh in on the scents I like.

My favorite perfume is Rapture by Victoria Secret, my second is probably Chanel No.5 which is what I am wearing ATM. I generally like floral scents, but I like others too.

When expected to smell male, in the past I used axe bergamot, but basically even when people expect it I rarely use the stuff anymore, though I consider the scent to be almost gender neutral. Bergamot usually seems neutral to me.

As far as other smells go I really like the bath and body works cherry blossom scent, for just about any of their products. I like alot more from that company, but the names escape me at the moment.

Yeah, bergamot is pretty neutral I'd say.  It just reminds me of tea.

I honestly had no clue what bergamot is, lol, so thanks, foosnark.  I like the scent of tea too.

Is it a scent you can buy, or is it an actual tea, or both?

I justWikiwtfed it. now I have to go out and find some. Seems popular, at least in this thread.
I wonder if it just might be a Transgender favorite?

For some reason,  maybe, just being a homebody,   I like the smell of baby powder.  Then some strawberry or rose petal scents.

it is the peel of the bergamot fruit, it is distilled into an oil as a fragrance, but also used to flavor some teas.

it's pretty strong stuff though - it's what makes earl grey so nice.

Is that a part of Earl Grey tea? On occasions I just have to have some. It's a world of it's own.

Then you might like Navy. You can find it at Walmart and it's not expensive. But a lot of the girls I work with have always commented that they know when I am around because they can smell baby powder.

What does a kitten smell like? My nose gets plugged up even getting close to them, lol, so I'm in the opposite boat of you.

I like puppies well enough and aren't allergic but I don't think they smell very good at all unless they just had a bath like a half hour ago, lol.

Oh, guinea pigs have a nice furry smell to them, though.
