I've searched and cannot find a similar thread. Before anyone points out there is one apologies my search didn't find it.

So what scent should be in every collection? One male, one female, one unisex.

I have only one
Clinique Aromatics Elixir

For me, everything in my collection currently, belongs there.

As tastes differ, I wouldn't reduce it to one fragrance but say:
feminine: a classic Guerlain in pure perfume (Shalimar, Mitsouko, L'Heure bleue etc.)
masculine: one of the classic Creeds (Bois de Santal, RSL, BdP, BdG...)
unisex: a traditional Eau de Cologne, preferably Villoresi's all-natural Colonia

If you really love perfume, you have to explore the sources at some point...

For both female and male, something from one of the great perfume houses,Caron,Chanel and or Guerlain.

Everyone should have the chance to test and own a niche.
