ok, I'll start:

1. Miss Dior Cherie (I love wearing it anytime of the year)
2. Incanto by Salvatore Ferragamo (My favorite for the summer)
3. Lolita Lempicka (it kind of feels good now during the winter)

In general I love sweet fragrances, and I get good comments from my friends, specially when I'm wearting Miss Dior Cherie. However, I'm thinking that for spring I'll go for something totally different, mmh... maybe something with citrus tones.

My natural oils I wear:

Dragonsblood
Sandalwood
Ylang Ylang

As far as scent in a spray I wear:

Addict by Dior
Narcisse by Chloe
Obsession - CK

Light every day is good old Yardley's English Lavendar. Just smells clean and fresh.

And one of my faves is discontinued - the original Guess? by Georges Marciano, yummy sexy Oriental.

Only on pulse points, straight out of the shower, and a light spritz to walk through. Comments are usually "WHAT are you wearing? That smells so good!"

1 omnia amethyste by bulgari (the purple one)
2 black by kenneth cole
3 light blue by dolce e gabbana

1 is magnetic and everybody notices it and likes it
2 is a classic jasmin scent so it is fresh and that's what ppl comment
3 is almost a classic, very summery, usually the best noses ask me "is it light blue?"

They sound interesting, I've always seen the bottles but never actually stopped to check them out.

please dont tell anyone but my fave perfume is paris hilton (the one in the pink bottle with the black lines on it). i wear it everyday 😒

Haha! Don't worry about it. My philosophy is: If it works for you and you like it: wear it! πŸ˜‰

Ok, here's my guilty pleasure: Jessica Simpson's Fancy. -Boy, do guys get closer to me when I wear it! Like bees to honey :p

Oh! I love the smell of sandalwood, it is my favorite inciense aroma too. By my night table I always keep little bottles with scented oils, specially those that are for relaxation, because I like to put some on my neck right before going to bed. They help me sleep so soundly at night πŸ˜„ I guess this is some sort of aromatheraphy thing.

That sounds like a very nice thing to do ariesvita, very relaxing. Sandalwood has been a favorite of mine for a very long time. Give dragons blood a sniff next time you're slinking around where you purchase your oils, it's like sandalwoods evil twin. It smells sensuous and deep, the tree itself is an interesting character. I'd really like to get some true attar of rose and orange blossom. Pricey, but I think it will be worth it, mix and match my own scents. πŸ™‚

Awww just go with what you like and what smells good Hairitic. Hehehee, now I'm going to smell Phoenix when I'm at the store, just because I'm a curious monkey. I already know I like Lynx, my British friend sent me books and the smell was all over them, sneaky man. Their version of Axe I do believe. The women will just crawl all over you if you wear it according to the ads. LOL

Embarrassing isn't it! I think Glow by JLo is fine too. It smells good.

Whenever i past perfumery i spray myself with men's cologne-it's far more exciting to wear mens than womens. Mens is like an actual turn on. Whereas womens just smells all floral and fanny like.

I think it depends on a persons chemistry. My father wears lilac from time to time and it smells awesome on him. Flip that around for a woman and you get sultry, with the deeper wood tones and spice from mens scents.

And Hairitic? The mens cologne that makes me go bonkers are Drakkar Noir, Photo by Lagerfield and Mens Obsession. YUM.

Haha, That would have to be my favorite too..
I also adore Red Jeans Woman by Vesace.. which is sadly discontinued now..
And, Princess by Vera Wang is lovely as welll.. : )
A reallly cheap scent that I get complimented on by EVERYONE is Refuge. it's a Charlotte Russe store brand scent. It cost I'd say 15-20 bucks a bottle and they also have roll on sticks.

I'm a perfume addict.. I got over 10 bottles for christmas. :x

I wear Lacoste "Red" and Boss "Bottled". Don't really get comments but I feel right wearing them.

On a woman Est?e Lauder "Pleasures" drives me crazy with lust! Seriously - make sure you have bodyguards if you plan on getting anywhere near me when you're wearing that stuff!!

Ariesvita, it's for me, mens perfume just smells so good. But men wearing the perfume themselves can be a turn off. I want them to smell of all that is clean and fresh like a Polish laundry(!) not crappy bottled crap.

Right now my top frangrances are:

Halloween
Halloween Kiss
Red

I am running short so I need to try another set of perfumes. I have been wearing Red since I was in High School so I probably will keep wearing it, but IO want to add some new ponies to the show

Has anyone tried Marc Jacobs "Lola'? It's my new summer scent. Last year, my summer scent was Chanel "Chance". Viktor & Rolf's Flowerbomb is the bomb too!

πŸ™‚

Chance is a lovely summer scent I still wear it.

Haven't tried Marc Jacobs Lola but one of my friends has been raving about it too so need to check it out.

1. My winter scent - Burberry
2. My summer scent - Flower by Cynthia Rowley (despite it's name it's not flowery, more like musky and sandlewood w/ just a hint of gardenia)

At the moment:

Ange ou Demon by Givenchy (a classy seduction-sweetness combined; the most comments so far, LOVE it forever!)
Baby Phat (Pink) Goddess by kimora lee simmons (another amazing, slightly exotic scent; eye-catching bottle, too.)
Sarah Jessica Parker's Dawn (a refreshingly subtle-clean, yet slightly mysterious scent..)

After a long search, I finally got my two new summer scents

Sula's Sun-kissed citrus, it has those citrus notes I wanted and it makes me feel so fresh and energetic everytime I put it on. It is lingers lightly on you, perfect for the office.

and
Clinique's Aromatics Elixir, just one word: delicious! I can't stop sniffing myself -hahaha. It is definitely the type of change I was craving for, and the best part of it is that the scent will last throughout the day.

3.) Prada Amber Pour Homme
2.) Kenneth Cole Reaction
1.) Armani Code

I like Acqua Di Gio as well because it's fresh, lasts a long time, & it goes well w/ my body chemistry but it's kind of dated, too many guys wear it, and chances are that I'd smell like someone's ex-boyfriend lol. I always spray on top of Gold Bond lotion or Kama Sutra Chocolate Creme Brulee Massage Creme (too bad the Honey Almond's discontinued).

1. Halle Berry's fragrance! OH my Lord, it smells like sweetness! The hugs people give me while I'm wearing this fragrance tend to be a tad bit longer for some reason than they are when I'm not wearing it!

2. Victoria's Secret-Dream Angel's "Heavenly." This fragrance is also very sweet & soft-smelling. The perfect scent to put on after a hot shower & right before cuddling/bedtime with your partner!

3. Victoria's Secret-"Pink." It's fun, flirty & has a tang to it!

I wanna smell that. I smelled Beyonce's new one. Not the gross one, the other one. Forget the name, but it was good.

Some others that I can think of off the bat that are pretty good too:

Eternity by Calvin Klein (For Fall and Winter) - Very neutral scent that's great.
Daisy by Marc Jacobs (For Summer) - Kinda fruity, kinda floral. I like it!
Sunflower (For Spring) - A bit strong, but perfect for this season. Very youthful scent as well.

And I love the Cool Waters scent on men.

Hey Ariesvita, which variant of Cherie are you referring to? There are 3! My fave is L'Eau (the greenish one).

My faves:
* Christian Dior: Miss Dior - Cherie - L'Eau
* Elizabeth Arden: Mediterranean (Men seem to love this one! Sensual scent, but not too strong)
* Shiseido: Relaxing Fragrance (Recently found out this has been discontinued. Boo!!)

Dune - Christian Dior
Chanel #5
Euphoria - Calvin Klein

I always get compliments when I wear Dune. I'm out right now and I miss it. It's a great summer fragrance. Euphoria is more my winter fragrance though.

Viva La Juicy - Juicy Corture
Lacoste - Pink or Blue (forgot which one I have)
Armani Code

New favorite! - Flowerbomb by Viktor & Rolf β€” β€” β€”

+1 on Flowerbomb. I got it as a gift and didn't like it much when I smelled it from the bottle, but I wore it anyway and ended up wearing it well. It smells much better on.

mmmm...my b/f wears Givenchy Pi and I find it sooooo sexy ;P

I wear Jo Malone Amber & Lavender.
Clean and classy w/ a little spice. I believe it is marketed as a unisex fragrance.

"Amber, the exotic scent of the Orient and one of the perfume world's most legendary ingredients, is combined with the comfort of French lavender and myrrh. This clean aromatic spice evokes the subtle, spicy warmth of twilight."

Jo Malone's are made to be mixed and matched and I have several others but this is the one that feels like 'home' for me. Someone complimented me on it at lunch today.

Mine are:

1) D&G #3 - L'Impretice

2) Perry Ellis - 365 degrees

3) Moschino - Cheap & Chic

Most responce I got was from the Perry Ellis one, it's quite a unusual scent and not for all. Most comments have been from men.

I've had a few comments form work about the 1st one...it has a nice fruity smell and mellows down well during the day. Women seem to ask more about the 1st one.

I want to try this one:

"classified as a refreshing, gentle, oriental fragrance. This feminine scent possesses a blend of citrus and rose top notes, with floral mid notes and base notes of vanilla, oakmoss and cedar."

That sounds verrah nice. πŸ™‚
