8 weird and wonderful fragrances to try

The fragrance world is a weird and wonderful place. Just last month Kim Kardashian released a fragrance in a bottle sculpted like her naked body. But that’s just the beginning. There are way more unique fragrances out there.

We’ve gathered up some of the most unusual perfumes we can find, inspired by some of the most random things on the planet (seriously, we’re talking about earthworms and concrete).

Here is our edit of the best weird and wonderful perfumes around…


Star Wars Death Star Eau de Toilette

$39.99, Chemist Warehouse, My Chemist, My Beauty Spot, E-Pharmacy

This Star Wars-inspired scent was released on May the 4th and is a blend of marine accord, lemon, baby leaf, satsuma mandarin, mineral accord, ambergris, gulac wood, oakmoss and patchouli.

Demeter Play-Doh Cologne

$29.95, 30mL, muaustralia.com

Demeter created this scent to celebrate Play-Doh’s 50th birthday. They consider the fragrance best for highly-creative people who want a whimsical scent that reminds them of their youth.

D.S. & Durga Coriander Eau de Parfum

$256, 50mL, mecca.com.au

People seem to love or loathe coriander. We reckon it’s as divisive as pineapple on pizza. So if you’re a part of the coriander-loving camp then this scent is perfect for you!

LUSH Tank Battle

We’re betting most of your perfumes are named after an elusive and dreamy quality, like passion or spirit. So a Tank Battle fragrance doesn’t exactly blend in. But it’s such an intoxicating mix of earthy patchouli, sweet bubblegum, labdanum and clove bud oil, that you’ll be wanting to add it to your collection ASAP.

Comme Des Garçons Concrete Eau de Parfum

$228, 80mL, mecca.com.au

A far cry from the glitz and glam fragrance bottles we’re used to, this concrete fragrance exists to subvert stereotypes. The scent sounds quite delish though, with notes of cardamom, rose, musk, sandalwood, cedarwood and jasmine!

Demeter Earthworm Cologne

$29.95, 30mL, muaustralia.com

Yep, you read that right! Earthworm. But, it’s not quite as strange as it sounds. The fragrance is not the smell of a worm per se, but where it lives. Think: deep, dark and rich soil in a leafy forest.

Disney Princess Story Book Eau de Parfums

$19.99, 50mL, Chemist Warehouse, My Chemist, My Beauty Spot

Frozen is just one of the Disney Princess Story Book Perfumes you can get your hands on! You can also get Aladdin, Sleeping Beauty, The Little Mermaid, Beauty & The Beast and Cinderella. Plus, they’re all ethyl and alcohol-free and suitable for ages five and up. Super cute!

L’artisan Parfumeur Dzing! Eau de Toilette

$212.76, 100mL, global.artisanparfumeur.com

This scent is inspired by the circus and its fragrance notes couldn’t reflect that more! Notes of leather, fur, wood, talc, iris and caramel will bring the circus tent straight to you.

Have you ever come across a weird and wonderful fragrance? Would you try any of these perfumes?
