Related story:

A few months ago, we were at a supermarket with my mom, buying some stuff.

My mom needed an antiperspirant. When she was about to grab a black one, I heard a guy "helpfully" telling her that she was grabbing one "For Men™", that the ones "For Women™" were the pink ones.

I immediately looked at the guy like "lol what, who asked".

(My mom uses "men's" antiperspirants because she doesn't care about that, and they are usually cheaper than "women's")

I'm a man and don't like most scents of the deodorants/antiperspirants "for men", so I just use one "for women". I smell fruity instead of some agressive chemical fragrance.

Same. I'm currently using coconut scented conditioner, and some sweety cologne, for example (chocolate scented spray kinda slaps too)

You may like Bath and Body Works Immortal. The Black Plum gives it a very distinct sweetness so it's not your typical masculine scent. Only available in autumn though.
