Jackson faced some heat online for his perfume choice, with comments like, “Don’t let the opps see this 😭🙏” and “They got my boy. SMH.” But the Ravens star wasn’t having it. When one netizen asked, “What perfume do you wear, King?” Lamar clapped back, saying, “Whichever 1 your girl wears 💯.” Savage!
No wonder the Ravs QB’s new cologne, Night Lights, is all about breaking boundaries. Priced at $90, it’s a unisex fragrance that’s ‘wonderful, soft…se-y‘ for everyone. Jackson explained, “I like to smell like a female sometimes,” highlighting its versatile vibe. With this, the Ravens star blends personal style with inclusivity, proving he’s bold on and off the field!
While some might raise an eyebrow at the quarterback’s preference for softer, unisex scents, others are nodding along, understanding the genius behind his move.

Unexpectedly, Lamar Jackson’s choice to embrace ‘girl perfume‘ has stirred the internet, but his fans aren’t just watching—they’re rallying behind him. “Makes sense,” one fan chimed in, “guys’ cologne smells musky and too strong.” Clearly, Jackson’s breaking away from tradition resonates with many.
It’s not just about what Jackson prefers; it’s about why. He’s leaning toward fragrances that aren’t overpowering but still leave an impression. “I get this. Many men’s colognes are very musky. It sounds like he prefers softer and fresher unisex scents,” another supporter shared. For a man who throws spirals with finesse, it only makes sense his scent game would match that level of sophistication.
Jackson’s fans also see the logic behind ditching the musk for something fresh. “I get it. He might like to smell floral or fresh or citrusy even. Not everybody wants to smell like musk lol,” someone else commented. The NFL MVP isn’t just making statements on the field; he’s subtly rethinking the way athletes approach self-expression.

Of course, the 27-year-old’s move isn’t just about smelling good—it’s a strategic play. “He’s not wrong though; he just gave a cheat code to all the fellas,” one fan joked, hinting that Lamar’s preference might be a game-changer for the guys trying to level up their fragrance game.
And perhaps the strongest endorsement comes from this sentiment: “Lamar gets it. Girl or unisex fragrances are better.” Whether it’s a softer scent or even borrowing your partner’s go-to fragrance, fans seem to agree Jackson’s onto something.
