We Spent the Last Three Months Testing the Top 24 Pheromone Perfumes for Women in 2024
Published: 22nd October 2024
If you've been scrolling on TikTok recently, you've probably noticed the hype around pheromone perfumes. These perfumes aren’t your average fragrance; they're designed to make an impression by using pheromones, which are natural chemical signals known to subtly enhance attraction and boost confidence. Think of them as scents that work with your body's own chemistry to create a unique fragrance that's tailored just for you.
And the excitement is real. TikTok is flooded with people sharing how pheromone perfumes are helping them turn heads, spark unexpected conversations, or simply feel more confident. With so many brands out there and lots of positive stories floating around, pheromone perfumes are becoming a real trend in the beauty world, making us wonder if there's some science behind the sensation.
To get to the bottom of it, our team has spent the past three months testing 24 of the most popular pheromone perfumes for women. We tested each scent across different settings and took notes on everything from fragrance longevity to the impact on social interactions. After careful review, we've finally narrowed it down to the top 5 pheromone perfumes that truly stand out.
Further below, we'll be breaking down some of the best pheromone perfumes we've tried this year and which ones came out on top.

Summary:
A unique one-ingredient perfume containing only Iso Super E, which is synthetic sandalwood. If you think it's too subtle for your liking, it's perfect for layering with other perfumes, giving yourself a fresh and slightly woody note.
POSITIVE
- Contains only Iso Super E that smells unique to each wearer.
- Velvety woody note that vanishes and resurfaces periodically.
- Cruelty-free.
- Clean and fresh smell.
NEGATIVE
- Some wearers dislike how subtle the scent is.
- Expensive for an EDT concentration.
Overview:
This unique one-ingredient perfume contains only Iso Super E, which can stimulate pheromone receptors.
It has a subtle woody scent on first application before it starts settling into your skin chemistry. On first wear, we would describe it as "airy" and "clean" with a hint of alcohol, drying down to almost an unscented body soap odor.
Throughout our three months of testing, we did notice that it wears differently on our skin based on diet, weather, hormones etc. On some days it's sweet, on others it smells muskier.
We recommend it for those who want a fresher scent made for layering, or if you're interested in seeing how it mixes in with your skin chemistry, creating a new scent that's wholly you.

POSITIVE
- White musk and rice.
- Long-lasting fragrance.
- Lightweight and safe for sensitive noses.
- Good for everyday wear.
NEGATIVE
- Leaves stain behind on thinner fabrics.
- Mixed opinions on the dry down smell.
Overview:
Diptyque is a stable in any woman's perfume wardrobe. Their most popular scent, L'eau Papier, emulates the ultimate "clean girl" aesthetic. It opens with notes of pleasant musk and rice steam accords, smelling almost papery, like the pages of a comforting old book.
Some of our team had already owned a bottle of this prior to testing, and it quickly became a favorite even among those of us who had never tried it until now.
On first spray, the clean and androgynous smell was very pleasant. It lasted us throughout the day. We tested it on lighter fabrics like linen, and much to our dismay, it left a light stain behind.
However, it's been said that it dries down to a more basic floral scent, although some of our test participants did not agree with that.

POSITIVE
- Notes of white tea, orange blossom, lavender and amber.
- Good vanilla scent.
- Cruelty-free.
NEGATIVE
- Stains thinner fabrics.
Overview:
Despite coming last on our list, Moodeaux's Worthy Eau de Parfum is by no means lacking. After narrowing down our top 5 from the 24 pheromone perfumes we've tested, our standards were rigorous.
This list wouldn't be complete without a vanilla perfume. Worthy isn't a traditional gourmand scent in the way that vanilla takes the center stage. It's rather warm and the florals of the orange blossom and lavender balance out the vanilla well.
We didn't have any problems in terms of longevity, and the fragrance still held well on our hair after a long day. With that being said, we noticed that a spritz of it stained lighter fabrics, similar to Diptyque's L'eau Papier.

How we ranked:
Effectiveness in Social Settings: We focused on how well each perfume performs in social scenarios. Our team wore each fragrance during various social events and casual outings, observing whether it boosted positive interactions, sparked conversations, or received compliments. Only perfumes that consistently enhanced the wearer’s presence and allure made it to the top.
Longevity in Staying Power: A fragrance’s lasting power is essential, so we monitored how long each scent remained noticeable after application. Perfumes that stayed vibrant for at least six to eight hours scored highly, ensuring users could count on their perfume to last through the day or evening without needing frequent reapplication. Cosari Pheromone Cologne in Original Scent holds fragrance for the longest.
Quality: High-quality ingredients make a huge difference in the complexity and richness of a fragrance. We prioritized perfumes with well-balanced blends of natural or high-grade synthetic pheromones and scents that complemented each other, resulting in an appealing and captivating aroma without overpowering the wearer.
Wearer Confidence and Appeal: A great pheromone perfume should not only attract others but also make the wearer feel more confident. We assessed whether each perfume helped the wearer feel more poised and self-assured, considering that confidence is often the most noticeable quality a scent can amplify.
Value for Money: We wanted to ensure that each recommended perfume was worth its price. Perfumes that delivered long-lasting effects, quality ingredients, and an appealing scent at a reasonable price received higher marks, providing users with great value without compromising on quality.
By carefully evaluating these criteria, we arrived at our final ranking, with the Cosari Pheromone Cologne at the top, followed by the Escential Molecules Molecule 01, Diptyque L'eau Papier, Pure Instinct Pheromone Perfume Oil, and Moodeaux Worthy Eau de Parfum. This ranking reflects a balanced combination of effectiveness in social settings, longevity in staying power, quality, wearer confidence and value for money, thus considering the diverse needs of users seeking good pheromone perfumes for women.
