Australians wear a mix of mainstream designer fragrances and distinctive local brands. The most visible names include:

- Dior, Chanel, Yves Saint Laurent, Lancôme, Estée Lauder and Ralph Lauren - dependable department-store choices, especially for everyday and office wear. - Jean Paul Gaultier, Dolce & Gabbana and Armani - popular for stronger, recognisable evening fragrances; Chemist Warehouse's Australian team specifically highlighted Gaultier's Scandal and D&G's The One. - Goldfield & Banks - probably the best-known Australian niche house, using Australian botanicals and landscapes as inspiration. - Who Is Elijah - a Sydney-based, gender-neutral brand known for wearable, sustainable scents and strong local recognition. - Aesop - Melbourne-born and especially popular with people who prefer understated, woody, herbal fragrances. - Mihan Aromatics, SŚAINT, Odesse, Roemy and One Seed - smaller Australian labels with appeal among niche-fragrance shoppers. - Affordable options such as MCoBeauty and Maison Asrar - increasingly visible through Chemist Warehouse and social-media trends.

A practical summary: Dior, Chanel and YSL remain safe mainstream bets; Goldfield & Banks and Who Is Elijah are the clearest “Australian” choices; Aesop and Mihan Aromatics suit a quieter niche aesthetic. Popularity varies by city, age and budget, so there is no single national bestseller.
