Choosing the right perfume is a key part of expressing yourself as a woman. Scent is strongly linked to emotions – and the right perfume can make you feel irresistibly feminine.
But how do you find that perfect feminizing scent? I’m glad you asked!
In this blog post, written specifically for crossdressers and transgender women, I’ll guide you through various perfume scents and the impressions they create.
By the end, you’ll be able to confidently pick a perfume that matches your unique style and enhances your femininity.
Floral Perfumes
Floral perfumes are created using the scent of a single flower, such as lavender, rose, gardenia, or geranium, or a combination of multiple flowers.
These fragrances are particularly suitable for crossdressers and transgender women since they are the most feminine of fragrances. Wear a floral perfume when you want to express your soft, romantic side.
Examples of floral perfumes include:
- Daisy by Marc Jacobs
- Estée Lauder White Linen
- Dior J’Adore
- Stella by Stella McCartney
- Kenzo Flower by Kenzo
- L‘Air du Temps by Nina Ricci
Fruity Perfumes
Fruity perfumes contain citrus scents, such as lemon, grapefruit, strawberry, peach, kiwi, etc.
With their fresh and youthful character, fruity perfumes are an excellent choice when you desire to feel confident and energetic.
Examples of fruity perfumes include:
- L.A.M.B. by Gwen Stefani
- Cartier Eau de Cartier
- Sun Flowers by Elizabeth Arden
- Beautiful Sheer by Estée Lauder
- DKNY by Donna Karan
- Emporio White by Giorgio Armani
Fresh Perfumes
Fresh perfumes, also known as green scents, are light and airy, evoking notes of grass, green leaves, and the ocean.
Energetic and rejuvenating, fresh perfumes are perfect for when you’re “en femme” as they elevate your mood and create a comforting atmosphere.
Examples of fresh perfumes include:
- J.Lo Glow by Jennifer Lopez
- Fifth Avenue by Elizabeth Arden
- Diorissimo, Dune by Christian Dior
- Bond No. 9
- Safari by Ralph Lauren
Oriental Perfumes
Oriental perfumes emanate a rich and dramatic aura, blending scents of spices, musk, vanilla, and intense flowers.
These perfumes exude a sexy and sophisticated allure. Just remember to opt for a lighter fragrance, as oriental perfumes can lean towards the masculine side.
Examples of oriental perfumes include:
- Dior Addict
- Lancome Attraction
- Opium by Yves Saint Laurent
- Samsara by Guerlain
- Lalique Perfume by Lalique
- Sun Moon & Stars by Karl Lagerfeld
Woody Perfumes
Woody perfumes are heavy and dramatic and incorporate scents like sandalwood, patchouli, and cedar.
While woody perfumes are sensual and exotic, they lean more towards the masculine spectrum of fragrances. Hence, you may want to avoid this particular type.
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

Estee Lauder White Linen. I love th femminine smell and it makes me feel wonderful.
I have a love affair with Estee Lauder Sensuous Nude. I wear it almost all of the time. I know I am making an effect by the sly looks I receive and I love it. When guys look at me that way, I know that I have achieved the feminine impression I am looking for.
Ohhh the choices??perfume is Definetly one of my Fav things to shop for. Just the act of spritzing on a sexy perfume makes me feel so girly and feminine. My favorite is Definetly Beautiful, by Estee Lauder. Even the pretty pink box is sooo girly!!!
I wear Estee Lauder White Linen. I really can’t explain it, but it just feels femminine on me.
I didn’t see what type of scent it would be. Fruity? Woodsie? Floral? Which one should it be?
I usually wear Silk Ribbons, by Jessica McKlintock. When It is fresh, it is VERY feminine, but as it wears (at least with my body chemistry) it changes to a subtly light feminine version of Polo. So I apply a litte bit at night, after my bath. By morning it has toned down slightly, and I can go to work in man clothes, secure in the knowledge that people will think feminine, without knowing exactly why. Combining that with frilly underthings,I feel sexy and flirty all day long. The women love me, becasue they think I am gay, and the guys don’t hassle me, becasue they are afraid of either being thought gay themselves, or being charged with sexual harrassment. I’m a happy girl. 🙂
My favorite is Katie’s Secrets perfume! The smell is amazing!!!!
Bvlgari, Bvlgari, Bvlgari. I have just found this Eau de Parfum scent and I LOVE it.
I like Chanel No19 for daytime and No5 for evenings
