The Secret Feminizing Power of Perfume
Comments
Your feminine image is about more than the way you look. The real power is in sending subconscious signals that you are a REAL woman.
One of the best ways to do this is by wearing the right perfume. Scent is strongly linked to emotions and has a huge impact on the way people perceive you.
The secret is choosing a perfume that creates the impact you are looking for. Here are the basic perfume categories and what they say about you …
Floral
Floral perfumes are light and flowery. They include scents like lavender, rose, gardenia and geranium.
Florals are great for TG girls since they are the most feminine fragrance. Wear them when you want to appear especially girly or romantic.
Examples of floral perfumes include: Dior J’Adore, Stella by Stella McCartney, Kenzo Flower by Kenzo, Anais Anais, Beautiful by Estée Lauder, Eternity by Calvin Klein, and L‘Air du Temps by Nina Ricci.
Fruity
Fruity perfumes are usually based on citrus scents like lemon or grapefruit, but can also include strawberry, peach, kiwi, etc.
Fruity perfumes are fresh and youthful, so they are great for gals over 40. They are also a good choice for when you want to feel confident and energetic.
Examples of fruity perfumes include: Fresh Sugar, L.A.M.B. by Gwen Stefani, Cartier Eau de Cartier, Nina by Nina Ricci, Sun Flowers by Elizabeth Arden, Beautiful Sheer by Estée Lauder, DKNY by Donna Karan, and Emporio White by Giorgio Armani.
Fresh
Fresh perfumes (also called green scents) are light and airy. They are based on scents of grass, green leaves and the ocean.
Fresh perfumes are energetic and rejuvenating. They are a great choice when you are out “en femme” since they boost your mood and put other people at ease.
Examples of fresh perfumes include: J.Lo Glow by Jennifer Lopez, Covet by Sarah Jessica Parker, Fifth Avenue by Elizabeth Arden, Diorissimo, Dune by Christian Dior, Bond No. 9, and Safari by Ralph Lauren.
Oriental
Oriental perfumes are rich and dramatic and smell of spices, musk, vanilla and heavy flowers.
Oriental perfumes tell the world that you are sexy and sophisticated. Just be sure to choose a light scent since oriental perfumes can lean toward the masculine side.
Examples of oriental perfumes include: Dior Addict, Lancome Attraction, True Star by Hilfiger, Opium by Yves Saint Laurent, Samsara by Guerlain, Lalique Perfume by Lalique, Sun Moon & Stars by Karl Lagerfeld, Jean Paul Gaultier Perfume,
Woody
Woody perfumes are heavy and dramatic and are based on scents like sandalwood, patchouli, and cedar.
Woody perfumes are sensual and exotic, but they are the most masculine of all scents. Most woody perfumes should be avoided by TG girls.
Examples of woody perfumes include: Passion by Elizabeth Taylor, Escada by Escada, Lovely by Sarah Jessica Parker, Cashmere Mist by Donna Karan, Habanita by Molinard, Givenchy Organza.
Keep in mind that some perfumes cross categories. (For example, Lovely by Sarah Jessica Parker is a “floral woody.”) Your main criteria for selecting perfume should be how pretty and feminine it makes you feel!
What is YOUR favorite perfume? I’d love to hear from you, so leave me a comment below!
Love,
Lucille

Channel No5 makes me feel the ultimate in my Femininity
Thank you Lucille with your tips
I am inspired to try some of the wonderful advice from everyone! I have always loved “White Shoulders” and “Anais Anais”.Now I feel I must try other scents, just thinking about it has me very excited! I use unscented deodorant and shaving gel,so I don’t detract from the intended purpose. I apply just a drop to each inner thigh and between my breasts,where body heat can work its magic! Thanks ever so much Lucille for providing the forum and fabulous topics, and to all your friends for the great responses! Best Wishes and Sweet Kisses Honey
Thanks to you girls, I’ve just learned about a ton of new perfumes! I always love the responses I get here.
Hi all!
Kate Beckman “Intimately” perfume is by far my fav!
It is light and very feminine! Also very affordable too!
XOXOXO =)
“Most woody perfumes should be avoided by TG girls.” Lovely by Sarah Jessica Parker is listed as an example. I noticed that this perfume was also listed under Floral. Which one is it?
I have several samples that I use on special occasions. I keep using the ones I get compliments on. Usually, I don’t wear perfume because my best friend has a sensitivity to them. That and candles. And since she is one of my employers as well, I limit the times I wear boss repellent.
Sorry for the confusion, Melissa! Some perfume sites consider it a floral, some a woody. It’s technically a “floral woody.” I saw WEAR IT if it makes you feel feminine.
Hi Lucille, I use “Tommy Girl Jeans”. I believe it smell young and fresh. But really don’t know in which perfume categories you would put it.

“Be Proud of Who You Are”
My all time fav scent is the smokey sexy sultry classic from Estee Lauda..youthdew..If your not aroused then you must be dead.x Daytime scent would be Beautiful Sheer from the same producer..Its zesty light and ultra fem…for girly girls with class.xx
I enjoy all the perfumes and colognes for women. Some of my favorites are floral. I still fill odd waring them in public so I where them around the house and on occasion forget that I have them on and then go out which is a plus. If I do that more often, it will feel more normal where them anywhere. I love your letters I feel more encouraged by your desire to help males to be womanly.
I bought the breast enlargement program and trying to change my diet accordingly but fear that my age will inhibit the physical changes. I’m in my sixties now so this would have been wonderful if I was still in my twenties.
Much success with your programs.

My favourites are J’adore de Dior and Tresor de lancome. Whata lovely feeling!
I love COCO by Chanel,but it’s so darned expensive.
My favorite is Versace “Bright Crystal”. Have a fresh flowery scent.
Everytime I put it on, it gives me a nice fresh mind.
