Know someone who is ‘such a Gemini’ (yourself included)? These perfumes couldn’t define them more fragrantly.
Gemini Fragrance Guide: 8 Perfumes To Gift (Or Get For Yourself)

And just like that, half of 2024 has flown by and we find ourselves at the threshold of June – the onset of the monsoon season and the commencement of pride month. Aside from these important events, we’re also entering the second half of the rule of Geminis. Ruled by Mercury, the planet of communication and intellect, this vivacious air sign is known to possess double the energy and abilities of a person. Their minds are always on the move, ever curious, and they can articulately talk up a storm. If you’re a Gemini baby yourself or have Gemini friends or family, here’s the perfect fragrance gift guide based on this air sign’s characteristics.

Flexible (Clean, Fresh)

Whether it’s trying a new movie or leisure activities, Geminis are flexible and want to try everything, giving them an upper hand in being versatile. A clean and fresh fragrance fits into this vibe and is suitable for every occasion. From late-night clubbing to business meetings, a fresh, aquatic, and clean scent can uplift your mood and confidence.

What you’ll love: If you want to smell like an Italian Island, Giorgio Armani’s Acqua Di Gio perfume will come through with flying colours. Its nature-inspired aquatic scent has top notes of bergamot, heart notes of marine accords, jasmine, and rosemary, and base notes of cedar, persimmon, and Indonesian patchouli.

Outgoing (Oud, Oriental )

Socialising with the right crowds is like a cakewalk for Geminis. Their outgoing personality is best fed when they are immersed in new experiences and travel, soaking in the culture around them. Woody oud and oriental spicy, exotic, and aromatic notes aptly mirror this characteristic. It may be heady and robust at first but eases into the senses gradually.

What you’ll love: While Gemini personalities can be a magnet, the Lahn Al Oud Perfume from Dorral Collection helps expedite attraction. Though it’s an eau de toilette, this sensual woody scent has a great projection that leaves a faint trail as it slowly evaporates through the day. This suave formulation has citrusy, green top notes, floral heart notes, and a beautiful base composition of musk, labdanum, oud, and sandalwood.

Charming (Floral)

Geminis may be slightly allergic to commitment, but when their heart is set on a special connection, they can bet on their natural charm to win someone over. All they need is the perfect pheromonic, floral scent to ‘wingman’ their flirtatious tendencies.

Impulsive (Zesty, Citrusy)

Wherever there’s an adventure, you’re bound to spot Geminis. They love to be stimulated and are up for piquing their curiosity when the occasion arises. To the outside, it’s impulsive, borderline insane but to them, it’s a whole new world of galvanising experiences.
