What kind of perfume do the female members wear? I feel it’s probably better not to wear anything too strong during a meal, though…
This content is machine-translated.
I’ve always struggled to find the right perfume.
I’ve never found one that really clicks, feels just right, or makes me think, “This is my signature scent.”
I generally don’t wear perfume.
Because of my work, I’m not used to wearing it, and the men I interact with in both my personal and professional life all have their own wonderful scents.
One of them gave me the same fragrance so we could match, but I only wear it when I go golfing or traveling.
I really loved the scent of a papa (a male supporter) I used to see. I’d bury my face in his chest, and if I caught the same scent on a train or somewhere else, I’d look around trying to find where it was coming from.

I think it’s wonderful that Japanese and other Asians don’t have much body odor. White and Black people, and people of other non-Asian ethnicities, can be seriously bad. I assume perfume developed in medieval times, when people like that didn’t bathe and needed to do something about their own smell. Wine and food pairing is called “marriage,” and apparently people choose perfumes that go well with their own body odor in much the same way. In other words, I see perfume as something for people who smell bad—not something Japanese people really need. It’s purely a fashion statement.
At a dating club, I think it’s best to go easy on perfume, since many people probably don’t want the scent lingering on them. If a man likes perfume and wears it himself, you might enjoy experimenting with different scents together. But if he doesn’t wear any, I think it’s better to start by assuming he may not be fond of perfume.
I might actually like the natural scent of Japanese people too—like the smell of a woman’s hair. A little while ago, ice cream that smelled like a parakeet was released and became a topic among some enthusiasts. I think it’s something along those lines.

I agree with Mac’s answer.
I’m also someone who would rather smell natural body odor than perfume.
Perfume is fine when you catch a whiff of it from a distance, but during a date you’re close together, so it can be way too strong.

I’m a male member, and I used to love Nina Ricci’s Les Belles de Ricci. Sadly, it’s been discontinued.
The women I see don’t wear perfume. I used to wonder if they disliked it, but then I realized it was out of consideration—they didn’t want me going home smelling of perfume. That’s incredibly sweet!
For perfume I wear myself, I like CK.

For first meetings or food-focused dates—like sushi, Japanese cuisine, or wine and French food—I don’t wear perfume.
Once we’ve gotten more comfortable and I know their preferences, or if they’re fine with perfume, and the meal is more casual, I’ll wear some depending on my mood.
I also wear just a light touch for work.
When I’m in the mood for something cool and clean, I use CLEAN’s WARM COTTON (I’ve been wearing it for a long time).
Ever since I started going by the name Jasmine, I’ve become more interested in jasmine scents, so I ended up buying Dior’s JASMIN DES ANGES (lol). I also like feminine fragrances.
I wear that one on dates.

I don’t wear perfume because I worry about it being too strong during meals or transferring onto food.
Instead, I use Jo Malone’s Tuberose body cream. It keeps my skin moisturized, and I love the scent, so I’ve stuck with it.

Sorry this got so long lol.
I used to love the CHANEL Chance my ex-boyfriend wore, so we often wore matching scents. But when I worked part-time in Ginza, I learned that hostesses don’t wear perfume, so I stopped wearing it too.
I heard it was out of consideration because strong fragrances can bother customers’ wives, and wearing perfume in places like sushi restaurants is considered bad manners. I thought that was kind of nice.
Even now, though, I occasionally wear Chance when I happen to think of him.
Also, when I first met my current papa, he smelled incredibly sexy, so I asked, “What are you wearing?” He said it was Le Male by Jean Paul Gaultier. I wanted to be able to smell his scent even when I wasn’t with him, so I bought the same one secondhand（笑).
I told him, “I bought it on Mercari because I wanted to feel like I was always with you. The new one was too expensive…” He was really happy and said, “That’s so cute.” Though maybe he was actually put off.
Another papa wears Hermès, and yet another wears Jo Malone’s English Pear & Freesia. I love them all so much that I bought matching ones for everyone on Mercari.
The Jo Malone papa is getting fed up because I like his scent so much that I make a fuss saying, “It smells sooo good!!!! Let me smell it!!!”
I love perfume, but it’s expensive, so I don’t buy it myself and don’t usually wear any. Sorry for the long post.
