Discover the Scent of Your Soul with Maison 21G
Perfume is an inherently personal thing — a statement of one’s unique identity through scent. As we live in a world where our individuality makes us stand out, it’s only natural to wish for the tools to help us do so. Besides the obvious, think makeup, hair dye, accessories, body modifications, tattoos, and more. The littlest things that play into what makes you the person you are.
When it comes to choosing the right fragrances for ourselves, we’re thankfully moving away from the one-size-fits-all formula. But with the domination of mass fragrance brands out there, how exactly do we go about doing that? According to luxury bespoke perfumery house Maison 21G, it all comes down to two main things: Picking a scent that best represents your soul and not being afraid to break gender stereotypes through your choice of perfume.
It’s time to embrace your individuality through personalised perfumery. Maison 21G thrives off the belief that there is a unique scent for every person; much like your DNA, your perfume should be distinctively you. It should be the extension of your soul and what sets you apart from others. Perhaps it is time to stray away from having brands tell you what scent to wear, and instead, choose for yourself what suits you best.
Maison 21G encourages you to stand out from the crowd and express yourself through their vast array of scents available to best arm yourself with a fragrance that is unlike anything anyone expects of you. They specialise in the ability to craft your own signature scent with the right mishmash of beautiful, rare, and haute couture ingredients. The beauty of it is that there is no right or wrong way to create a scent that screams you. The aim? To get people coming up to you with questions like “What are you wearing?” instead of “Who are you wearing?”
One other way to do this is to not worry about what is expected of your assigned gender. Gone are the days where cishet and genderfluid people have to worry about fitting into the boxes expected of them; it’s all about self-expression now. At Maison 21G, breaking such gender stereotypes through perfumery is always welcome.
Conforming to the norm has since become outdated, so much like gender, perfumery goes beyond the binaries expected of it. Maison 21G embraces this new demand of gender neutrality by embracing progression: Using traditionally feminine floral notes like notably rose, tuberose, and Muguet in men’s cologne and masculine woody, leathery, and Fougere notes vice versa to pave the way for the new contemporary of fragrances as we know it.
Trust Maison 21G to do the heavy lifting for you: The brand has formulated unisex scents like Geranium Gem and Clandestine Carnation from their exclusive Black Collection and Secret Spirit — a fresh approach to Cognac — to appeal to the modern individual. Perfectly blended fragrances that offer masculine and feminine notes to help wearers stand out with their delightful and daring unexpectedness.
Nothing is more satisfying than finding yourself and growing to become the best version of yourself that you can possibly be. And if bespoke perfume can help you do that and stand out? Why not?
