I have some innate skepticism when it comes to star signs, but I still love reading these sorts of lists. I’ve tried to match the vibe of the perfume to that of each zodiac sign. Hopefully it gives a bit of inspiration if you’re picking out your next perfume.
Aries – Tom Ford Black Orchid
Aries is known for its boldness and instinct to lead, often moving forward with certainty and conviction. Black Orchid mirrors that fearless energy. Rich, commanding, and impossible to ignore, it carries the kind of presence that feels instinctive rather than deliberate.
Taurus – Diptyque Tam Dao
Taurus is often drawn to comfort and quiet beauty, appreciating what feels grounding and tactile. Tam Dao reflects that earthy sensibility. Its soft sandalwood and gentle warmth settle into the skin like a calm, reassuring presence. It’s a quietly meditative scent that I think encapsulates a Taurus so well.
Gemini – Escentric Molecules Molecule 01
Known for their adaptability and ease across different environments, Geminis tend to move fluidly between worlds. Molecule 01 mirrors that quality beautifully. It’s a scent that shifts with your skin chemistry, never quite smelling the same twice, quietly reflecting the person wearing it.
Cancer – Fugazzi Angel Dust
Cancers are often drawn to what feels comforting and emotionally safe, creating an atmosphere of quiet warmth around them. Angel Dust reflects that gentle presence – soft, enveloping, and intimate, like a protective layer that stays close.
Leo – Armani Privé Rouge Malachite
Leos are often associated with warmth and natural presence, carrying a quiet confidence that draws others in. Rouge Malachite reflects that radiant energy – rich, luminous, and unmistakably expressive, with a warmth that feels both inviting and captivating.
I mentioned this fragrance in my round up of 6 Romantic Perfumes to wear on Valentine’s Day if you want to hear more about it.
Virgo – Maison Francis Kurkdjian Gentle Fluidity Silver
Virgos often appreciate clarity and thoughtful precision, favouring what feels quietly refined. Gentle Fluidity Silver mirrors that composed sensibility – crisp, balanced, and effortlessly put together.
Libra – Jo Malone Peony & Blush Suede
Libras are often drawn to beauty and harmony, moving through the world with an effortless sense of grace. Peony & Blush Suede reflects that balanced elegance – soft, refined, and quietly charming, with a warmth that feels naturally inviting.
Scorpio – Chanel Coco Noir
Scorpios are often associated with depth and quiet intensity, carrying an air of mystery that reveals itself slowly. Coco Noir reflects that composed allure – dark, elegant, and subtly magnetic, it draws people in without ever needing to explain itself.
Sagittarius – Hermès Un Jardin sur le Nil
Sagittarians are often guided by curiosity and a love of discovery, drawn to what feels open and expansive. Un Jardin sur le Nil captures that spirit – fresh, vibrant, and quietly adventurous, like stepping into somewhere new.
Capricorn – Le Labo Thé Noir 29
Capricorns often gravitate toward what feels grounded and enduring, favouring depth over display. Thé Noir reflects that steady presence. Earthy and quietly sophisticated, it lasts without ever needing to announce itself.

Aquarius – Etat Libre d’Orange You or Someone Like You
Aquarians are often guided by curiosity and a strong sense of individuality, drawn to what feels thoughtful and quietly unconventional. You or Someone Like You reflects that independent spirit – fresh, intriguing, and slightly unexpected, with a clarity that feels entirely its own.
Pisces – Diptyque Lilyphea
The Pisces star sign is associated with sensitivity and imagination, as they move through the world with a gentle, intuitive presence. Lilyphea captures that dreamlike quality as it’s a soft, watery, and quietly luminous scent, like light reflecting across still water.
Of course, you don’t have to share a star sign to fall in love with a scent – sometimes curiosity is reason enough. Like I say, I think these sorts of lists are a good way to discover something new. What perfume matches your star sign?
