Not many people realise how much their fragrance determines how they feel or how other people receive them. The way you smell is one timeless way to make a statement.
2023 was a great year for the fragrance industry as a lot more people joined the “smelling great” train. However, 2024 is about to be better, as the year is packed with exceptional trends to keep the fragrance community excited all year long. This article explores fragrance trends to expect in 2024, so you know what the year smells like.
Perfume Trends to Watch Out for in 2024
Take a look at some perfume trends to spritz on in 2024:
Floral Fragrances
Floral fragrances are coming back, but not without a modern twist. In 2024, expect a reinvention of classic floral notes, blending them with unconventional accords for a contemporary edge. We expect to see more combinations of floral and gourmand scents, with honey as a key ingredient in the gourmand formulation.
Personalised Signature Scent
Expect to see one-size-fits-all fragrances take a back seat in 2024. Creating signature scents is about to be the order of the day in the year. Brands are offering bespoke fragrance experiences, allowing you to create your signature scent. Fragrances that will perfectly embody your personality and preferences? You know you want to give this a try.
Wellness Scents
With self-care making its way up the routines of the majority, wellness fragrances are gaining popularity. Fragrances with calming, uplifting, or stress-relieving properties are becoming a staple. Your day can get better with a couple of spritzes, as we expect to see the rise of perfumes formulated with essential oils known for their therapeutic benefits.

Gender-Neutral Fragrances
Previous years saw feminine scents being overly floral and masculine scents being too strong. 2024 will see the rise of more genderless scents. Women may wear men’s fragrances, and men may wear women’s fragrances, as there’d be a rise in the formulation of less-separated scents. Also, it’d be all about preferences. More people will gravitate towards the ‘wear scents that you like’ trend.
Fragrance Dupes
The dupes trend is definitely going nowhere, especially with the infiltration of high-quality Middle Eastern dupes brands into the market in the past year. This is a perfect innovation for consumers looking to test a wide variety of fragrances before splurging on their most preferred scents. Consequently, this will lead to more scents coming in mini 30- to 50-ml bottles. Stay up to date on the newest in the world of Fashion, Arts, Beauty and Lifestyle; Follow FAB on Instagram.
Brands’ Transparency in Formulations
In a move towards transparency, fragrance brands are increasingly sharing their formulations. In 2024, consumers can expect more information about the ingredients in their favourite scents. This shift towards openness allows individuals to make informed choices, aligning with their preferences and values. More so, it will give brands room to grow and invest in owning their fragrance IP.
Conclusion
Overall, 2024 already smells great for fragrance enthusiasts, as the fragrance industry is evolving to cater to diverse tastes and values.
