Womens' fragrances vs. mens' fragrances?

I notice that the same brand of womens' fragrance and mens' frangrances smell very, very similar, but there is always a 'difference.' Mens' colognes are typically 'Por Homme' which I assume is French for men's fragrance (?). Please tell me… what's the difference in the two fragrances; how can they smell the same yet differently?

When perfume is made usualy it has three tones.
So each tone is a different ingredient i.e lavender, musk.
When they create a perfume as a guy and girl one they usualy want them to smell similar (also its just easier and less expensive)
so they might have …lavender, rose, vannila for womens…..the first tone being the strongest…..the last tone being the lasting smell of it.
So for the mens they might change it too a more masculin undertone like musk, rose, vanilla which changes the smell alot but still keeps it smilar to its counterpart. When they mix it all together your still getting the end smell of the rose vanilla but the base is changed to make it more fem/masc.

  4. I think men's fragrances are more bold in there smell…female fragrances smell fruity, or like flowers

  5. I would like you to know that men's Axe is not attractive to most ladies. Whenever I walk by boys with it on my eyelashes burn and my nose tingles, not a good impression. Okay girls fragrances are more fruity and pleasant. Some are way too strong because they spray five billion sprays on themselves. Now men's cologne is another story. Put a little on around your wrists and neck and you'll smell better than a baby's bottom after coming out of the bath. Please know that the more you put on the more difference there is. I actually think all perfumes for guys and girls except for Axe, excluding pheonix scent smell wonderful if there isn't too much of it.
