I hate to admit it but the 2010s actually got better for the aromas of fragrances. A dramatic step up. Here are a few select smells
you would sniff on the street if you were walking around in the 2010s.

Similarly with fashion, I feel like people got more into having a classy fragrance, coming off the 2000's when so many people were using body spray (and a lot of it). I also think through instagram, and eventually Tiktok, what is on one's vanity seemed to become more of a status thing than it used to be. That said, the fragrances themselves have gotten to be less strong overall, whether that's due to increased regulations, demand with people complaining of allergies, or no longer much of a need to cover up cigarette smoke (though that's more of a 80's and before thing). Personally I started smelling less perfume in public on a regular day. The scents themselves have gotten more unisex in contrast to the prior decade's fruity cotton candy scents and Axe, though some that gained popularity in the 2010's seemed almost like an elevated version of those (I'm thinking Bleu de Chanel and La Vie est Belle). Though celebrity scents were fading in the first half of the decade, Ariana Grande did manage to resurrect them.

If you look @ fragrances from Margiela and LeLabo they def got more unisex. Even non unisex fragrances are being labeled unisex ( as a trend) Yeah Bleu De Chanel kind of started the whole Ambroxan craze, Dior Sauvage followed a few years later and then YSL Y. That Ariana Grande Cloud scent btw is a clone of MFK 540 ( A 300 dollar scent) but I bet most people buying it don't know that.

Sometimes I see people say they can smell Baccarat Rouge everywhere and I'm like "most of it is probably Cloud" lol. One thing interesting about Margiela's Replica line particularly is how they elevated the smells like something specific style of scent. Before that would've been found more in candles or maybe body sprays, and even those would be more the cake-like gourmands. I can't imagine that many people in prior times wanting a campfire or festival/weed perfume.

Yeah I noticed that as well, tbh Margiela's scents are super weak minus Jazz Club & Fireplace, def not worth the money, but I do like how every fragrance they make is classified by a "moment" Gucci did a weed perfume as well like 2 years ago, smelled like dead fish and toliet bowl. I don't think that and the Woodstock festival whatever MM calls it actually is selling like hot cakes, more of an experimental fragrance.
