Indeed, both Brown and Ortega have defined the way the world sees fragrance and have made it a part of one personality. While Ortega found it as something that empowered her, Millie Bobby Brown channeled her ‘wild self’ with it.

Millie Bobby Brown never wore perfumes in her life because nothing suited her aura, as she shared with Allure in August. However, it all changed when she launched Wildy Me through her brand, Florence by Mills. The fragrance took nearly two years in the making because she wanted it to suit her personality. “It really interested me to make something less focused on fragrance and more on personal auras,” she said.

The Netflix star wanted her perfume to remind people of a certain memory and place. According to her description, the notes of bergamot, sage, and sandalwood reminded her of home and made her feel comfortable. Though both actresses had different perceptions of fragrance, the common point was it made them feel their true selves.
