We Asked Filipino Male Celebrities and Personalities to Reveal Their Signature Scents

“My signature is the new YSL MYSLF Eau de Toilette Intense. It has bright bergamot, then that orange blossom the whole line is built on, settling into clean woods. Lighter scents are my go-to, which is exactly why it works. Even when I’m under set lights or the sun for hours, it never gets heavy.”

“It’s hard to pick a signature scent because I have different fragrances on rotation, but if I were to pick today, it would have to be Byredo Vanille Antique. I’m a big fan of contrasts, so the sweet vanilla mixed with a dry, woody quality underneath feels smoky and almost slightly boozy rather than sugary. I don’t wear it every day, but when I do, I become so confident.”

“My go-to scent for the past five years has been Bleu de Chanel. I can talk about how light yet rich the scent is and how long it stays throughout the day, but it’s honestly just because someone I was courting at that time complimented me, saying it’s the best male scent she’s smelled.”

“I love fragrances, and [there are] just too many for me to pick a signature fragrance. I could go from Ralph Lauren Polo 67, to Maison Margiela Replica Lazy Sunday Morning, to Xerjoff Layla. My signature is ever-changing, depending on what’s happening in my life.”

“I’ve been wearing Guerlain Arsène Lupin Voyou since 2010, so at this point, it almost feels like my signature. I like it because it has character without announcing itself too much. I feel it’s a reflection of my own personality.”

“I don’t really have just one signature scent. I tend to match my fragrances to my mood and the season. Lately, I’ve been reaching for Loewe Solo Mercurio by day. It's citrusy and slightly sweet, but still has depth. I feel fun and fresh wearing this. It sets an optimistic mood for the day. 

“At night, the Henry Jacques No.11 De Sacha is very sexy, but at the same time, unique and scarce.”

“For me, it’s Creed Silver Mountain Water. It’s such an easy and fresh fragrance to wear! I can use it every day, whether it's at work or on a normal day, and constantly smell clean and crisp.”

“My favorite right now is Miller Harris La Feuille. I really like fresh, green scents that aren’t too overpowering. This one is a bit earthy, which I love. It just smells very natural and fresh, and it’s something I can wear every day [from day to night].”
