6. Escentric Molecules Molecule 1

Escentric Molecules are redefining perfumery and owe their formulations to Iso E Super, a fragrant ingredient made in laboratories. In an interview with The Strategist, Lucy Hale, star of the hit television series, Pretty Little Liars revealed that this is her favorite fragrance. Hale wanted to stop gatekeeping her favorite cologne and stated,

“When I spray it on myself, I can’t even smell it but everyone else can. It’s a unisex scent and definitely muskier and masculine, but I love that. People literally stop me on the street to ask me what I’m wearing. It’s not like they recognized me or anything."

Price: $150


7. Maison Francis Kurkdjian Baccarat Rouge 540

This long-lasting and luxurious elixir includes strong accords of jasmine, saffron, cedarwood, and ambergris. In a 2021 interview with Vogue, singer Olivia Rodrigo revealed this is her favorite fragrance. She added that she prefers fragrances with "natural musk." The fragrance is available in EDP and elixir, with the latter being more potent nutty and woody floral notes.

Price: approximately $214


The variety of fragrances loved by celebrities is a testament to unique choices in the perfumery world. While some prefer musky accords, others like fruity and floral scents. Many also opt for unisex scents like Molecule 1 that stand out from the rest.
