10. Lady Gaga Fame

Lady Gaga Fame

In 2012, Lady Gaga shocked the world by releasing her new perfume, Fame. Mixing her own blood sample with donor semen and plant extracts, Gaga tried to pass off this madness as an unusual scent. She explained that it would remind her of a “high-priced prostitute.”

"Belladonna tears, ground tiger orchid heart with a black veil of incense, crushed apricot combined with saffron essence and a drop of honey," reads the inscription on the packaging of this strange and shocking perfume.

After selling 30 million bottles of "Fame" worldwide, the extravagant singer became $1.5 billion richer.

In addition to its scent and composition, this perfume is unique in that it is dark in color in the bottle, but becomes completely colorless after application to the skin.

9. Bacon Cologne

Bacon Cologne

Imagine fragrant, warm bacon in a 50ml bottle! It was invented by Parisian butcher John Ferginet in the early 20th century. He believed that the smell of bacon combined with herbs improved the mood of his customers.

I don't know about you, but I don't like the idea of bacon being sprayed on the body. After all, it should be inside the stomach, not outside. And all the local dogs, as well as hungry people, will show a strong interest in the owner of such a perfume.

8. ZING!

ZING!

The great circus performances must have inspired the creators of this amazing perfume.

A perfume composition of caramel apples, sweaty circus performers, elephants and saddle leather is supposed to smell great. Would you dare to wear it?

7.Paper Passion

Paper Passion

One of the most unusual fragrances in the world is the creation of the famous perfumer Geza Schoen, in collaboration with Karl Lagerfeld.

Paper Passion is suitable for both men and women, and the main role in it is played by a woody accord. According to reviews of those who used the "book perfume", this is a moderately sillage perfume that sits close to the skin.

The smell of this perfume reminds you of a brand new book, just out of the printers. The perfect gift for a bibliophile, right?

6. Garage Comme des Garcons

Garage Comme des Garcons

The perfumers at Comme Des Garcons, the creators of this very strange scent, are convinced that kerosene, leather and plastic are excellent perfume ingredients. Well, those who wear this perfume will always have an answer to the question "Where have you been?" Of course, in the garage, even if there is no garage.

5. Eau de Stilton

Stilton Eau

And this perfume is perfect for those who have always dreamed of smelling like moldy cheese. The inspiration for its creation was the English blue cheese "Stilton".

By the way, the bacteria present in blue cheese are the same ones responsible for the miasma that sweaty feet exude. Disgusting? Well, that's how it should be!

4. Secretions Magnifiques by Etat Libre d`Orange

Secretions Magnifiques by Etat Libre d`Orange

Many fans of unusual perfumes are already familiar with the name of this perfume. The idea of its creation, belonging to Antoine Lie, was to create an aroma portrait of the human intestine at the moment when it is in a state of strong excitement, be it panic or orgasm.

The base notes of the fragrance are the four S's:

  1. Sperm,
  2. Hello,
  3. Salive
  4. Sang,

that is, “sperm, sweat, saliva and blood” translated from French.

And, despite such an unappetizing description, those who have risked trying this perfume on their bodies claim that its smell reminds of metal, salty sea and seaweed. If you have an extra 7,370 rubles, you can check for yourself whether these reviews are true, because this perfume is sold in Russia.

3. Muscs Koublaï Khän

Muscs Koublaï Khän

Reading reviews and impressions of Serge Lutens Muscs Koublaï Khan can be both terrifying and hilarious. Just think of “the armpit of a camel driver who hasn’t been near running water for a week!” Or the smell of a cat litter box. Or a zoo in a third-world country.

On the other hand, if you love the sensual richness of animalic notes, you should definitely try this perfume. According to its connoisseurs, it opens up on the skin with an aroma of wildness, sensuality, animal sexuality and aggression.

In addition to musk, the perfume from Serge Lutens contains notes of cumin, civet (secretions from the glands of civets, from whose feces coffee beans are collected, which are used to prepare one of the most expensive types of coffee in the world) and costus root, which has the smell of not quite fresh hair.

2. Vulva Original

Vulva Original

It is a scented spray that smells like the scent "produced by movement and sweating in a woman's intimate area."

According to the manufacturer, the Vulva scent has erotic, slightly sweaty, urine-like notes and, most importantly, it is organic.

1. The Malignant Dreams of Cthulhu in Love

The Malignant Dreams of Cthulhu in Love

We gave first place in the list of perfumes with the most unusual smell to a perfume created in honor of Cthulhu.

"A creepy, wet, slippery scent oozing from seaweed, ocean plants and dark, unfathomable waters," says Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab, the company that makes the perfume.

The scent features notes of incense, salt, seawater and seaweed, and, surprisingly, Mexican chocolate. Well, if Cthulhu ever wakes up and rises from the depths, we know what he'll smell like.
