Don't wear it! I might use some essential oils to inhale that day and someone might smell them. If I am feeling really sexy I use Amazing Grace by Philosophy. It smells like clean. I use the body spay, not the cologne spray. Essential oils are my favorite.

Nothing worse than offensive perfumes.

Talking Toilet water

[quote=AliceT;11129047]There is nothing so appealing as the smell of clean, without additives. So many people have issues with fragrances, I really wish more women as well as men would simply be clean with just a freshly shampooed head. All fragrances and colognes belong in the toilet.[/QUOTE]


Oh, AliceT, now you know where I get my fragrance!...lol...
.....................toilet water
n
a form of liquid perfume lighter than cologne Compare cologne Also called eau de toilette

I have an addiction to scents. I must own at least 75 oils, perfumes and colognes (in all forms).

My favorite scents are no longer produced: "Cher Uninhibited" and "My Sin". I still buy them on Ebay. My favorite scent still in production is Teatro Alla Scala (very hard to find) and Paloma Picasso.

On men I'm still partial to "Drakkar".

Right now I usually wear Boss Woman (because I like to think I'm the boss, lol). Really, it just smells really yummy. I also like Happy and White Diamonds, although I'm a little paranoid about wearing White Diamonds because someone once said it's an old lady perfume.

I agree with the post who says most of it does stink....especially the ones that have been around for 10 years.
I have yet to find one I like.

My favorite by Raphael is Replique'......but you can't get it anymore.

I do like opium, chanel and aromatic elexier by clinque'
some bath and body works
and a cream by meridith baxter birney.....forget the name of it but smells wonderful.

To an extent, I have tos ay I like certain colognes and perfumes, but they shouldnt overpower a person. And it definately shouldnt be a 'mask' for someone who doesnt use deodorant and outright stinks. One of my all-time favourites is Sweet Honesty by Avon.

Some perfumes are nice but not long lasting.

My favorites are made by Gautier, Ralph Lauren, Chanel & Sung.

Classique, Romance, Coco, Sung.

I love a man with Givenchy Pi. Something about it makes me crazy.

I very rarely wear anything, but if I do it's usually a CK - eternity, escape, etc.
