Hey, lovelies.
There’s something so powerful about having a scent that just feels like you. It’s more than smelling good—it’s emotional. It’s identity. A signature scent can ground you in your femininity, even if no one else knows you’re wearing it. Especially when you’re only able to express that side of yourself in quiet, subtle ways.

This post originally appeared on my old blog, Crossdresser Chronicles. I’ve moved it here because it still reflects an important part of my journey. Some details may be out of date, or lightly updated to fit where I am now.

My Personal Go-To
For me, it’s Victoria’s Secret “Love Spell.” I first smelled it back in high school. I used to go shopping with a group of girls, and one day one of them picked it up from Victoria’s Secret while I was with her. That’s when I found out what it was—and let me tell you, it left a mark.
Sweet, flirty, light… and it stuck with me. Even back then—long before I started crossdressing—it hit different. Years later, when I finally started exploring my femininity, that scent popped into my head again. I bought it instantly.
Now? It’s mine. I wear a little bit on my neck almost every day at work. I’m in a cubicle, so it’s subtle—nothing overwhelming. But it’s this tiny thing I can do to stay connected to myself. It’s private. Feminine. Affirming. And it works.
Little Extras
I have tried the matching lotion, and it’s just as lovely. I haven’t always been great about keeping lotion applied consistently, but building a better skincare routine is something I’m working on. It’s on my current list of priorities—and layering the scent like that? Total bonus.
Tips If You’re Still Figuring It Out
Honestly? You don’t need to overthink it. I’m not a perfume expert, and that’s okay. If you don’t have a signature scent yet, just start exploring. Walk into a store. Try a few testers. Spritz one and see how it makes you feel. Feminine? Powerful? Playful? That’s the one. You’ll know it when you find it. Trust your gut.
Final Thoughts
Finding a scent that feels like you can be life-changing. It doesn’t have to be bold or expensive—it just has to make you feel more aligned with the version of yourself you want to be. So whether it’s for going out, dressing up, or just owning a quiet moment of girl mode in a busy day… let it be yours.
