Here's What Your Zodiac Sign Smells Like as a Fragrance

Finding the perfume that fits you best is a highly personal affair. You could go with the one that seems to work best with your skin's chemistry. Or try your favorite celebrity's new scent. Or just default to the one your mother always wears. Or if you're truly stumped, you could just pick the perfume that corresponds to your sign. Yes, Demeter, a fragrance company known for creating quirky scents (like Baby's Head and Pizza), has released a collection of 12 fragrances each made specifically for an astrological sign.

You may be wondering, How in the world does this company know what a Gemini smells like? Here's how: "We chose fragrances that we thought were fun and corresponded with personality traits, symbols, or tendencies generally associated with each sign," says Mark Crames, the CEO of Demeter Fragrance Library. "For example, the symbol of Gemini is the Twins, which is characterized as a versatile dual sign. Demeter's Moonbeam scent captures the dual nature of the moonbeam, reflecting both innocence of night and passion of light, which we thought corresponded well with the sign's description."

Hmm...we guess that makes sense. Here's a brief synopsis of what each sign smells like, according to Demeter:

Aries: Rain. "Just like the Ram, Rain is dynamic and mysterious."

Taurus: Giant Sequoia. "A bold, fresh, floral, and woody scent, Giant Sequoia is stable and strong, just like the bull."

Gemini: Moonbeam. "Expressive and versatile, Moonbeam celebrates Gemini's dual sign."

Cancer: Ocean. "Ocean celebrates this water sign's devotion and charm."

Leo: Sunshine. "Fiery and bright, Sunshine celebrates this Lion—the star."

Virgo: Sandalwood. "It has been said that perfectionist Virgos prefer scents that are clean, sensual, subtle, earthy, and fresh."

Libra: Mountain Air. "This fresh, clean, crispy Mountain Air scent celebrates the cool and even-keeled Libra."

Scorpio: Lotus Flower. "This water flower celebrates Scorpio's determination, resourcefulness, and resilience."

Sagittarius: Vetiver. "Just like the inquisitive, energetic, and philosophical Archer, vetiver has a rich and fascinating history."

Capricorn: Dirt. "The earthiness of this fragrance celebrates the grounded and gregarious Capricorn."

Aquarius: Linen. "Linen celebrates Aquarians' uncanny ability to see both sides of a situation and a world of possibilities, making them excellent problem solvers."

Pisces: Salt Air. "Salt Air celebrates the easygoing, gentle, and quiet empathy of the Pisces."
