Best Perfumes for Entrepreneurs and CEOs

Entrepreneurs don’t shop for fragrance the same way most people do. You move faster. Your decisions are sharper. Your days are fuller. That applies to everything, including what you wear, how you speak, and what you smell like.

We’ve put together a set of perfumes that suit specific types of leaders. Each with clear traits, clean notes, and presence. You already know what kind of leader you are. Now find the scent that sounds like you.

Jasmin Al-Jazeera (Women’s)

The focused builders know their power. They don’t need to speak over people, dress to distract, or broadcast their vision on every platform. They stay steady, put their head down, and build consistently, intentionally. That’s what this scent feels like.

The jasmine and rose don’t shout. They sit close to the skin, soft but distinct, just like someone who never rushes but always delivers. Saffron and musk come in at the end, grounding everything in something quietly firm. Think: the kind of founder who runs lean, thinks long-term, and prefers depth over hype.

Not for trend-chasers or spotlight-lovers. This is for the woman who doesn’t overshare, but always knows the numbers.

1 Million Oud (Men’s)

You hear some people before they speak and feel their presence before they sit down. That’s this scent. It opens with a hit of unexpected yet playful peach and apple but give it a second and it turns warm, spicy, and commanding.

The honey and cloves wrap everything in this sharp, high-energy confidence. Add in oud and amber, and you’ve got a fragrance that doesn’t fade. Neither does the guy who wears it.

This is for the founder who loves pressure. He’s in five calls before 10 a.m., negotiates like it’s instinct, and knows exactly what to say when the funding round gets tense. 

Rose Oud Elixir (Women’s)

This perfume is perfect for founders that walk with clarity. It's pared back, minimal on the outside, but every layer is deliberate. The rose is clean but not floral for the sake of being soft, but sharp, almost metallic. 

Then comes the smooth and exact: oud. Followed by the  Guaiac wood which ties everything down with a dry finish, the kind you barely notice until you realize it’s still there at 9 p.m., same as the woman leading the final review.

If you're the kind of person who trims the excess, handles conflict without raising your voice, and keeps your team aligned without constantly checking in, this one fits. 

Sahara Desert Oud (Men’s)

This scent mirrors energy that is rooted in discipline. The spice hits first, like someone who gets straight to the point. 

The cedarwood at the core is calm, earthy, unwavering. And then there’s the oud again, but here it’s not ornamental. It settles deep, lasting hours, just like decisions made by someone who thinks far, acts steady, and rarely repeats themselves.

He’s not the loudest in the meeting, but he’s the one they watch the most. This scent isn’t for risk chasers. It’s for the ones building things that hold up, even in a sandstorm.
