I like the three Graces. In the summer, I wear Pure Grace which smells like you just got out of the shower. For dressy occasions, Amazing Grace. Currently wearing Baby Grace.
The best smells come straight from the real world: suntan lotion & salty skin on the beach, sea spray while boating, bonfires, pumpkin pies baking, snow, pine tree needles, the air just before it rains, the wet earth after a good downpour, leather horse saddle, hyacinth blooming in spring, tomato leaf in a backyard garden, lavender, freshly squeezed lemon wedges, dewy grass & honeysuckle on a summer morning walk. When it comes to fragrances, my favorites are the ones that capture such moments. I particularly enjoy: bobbi brown beach, Comptoir Sud Pacifique Aqua Motu, Hermes Kelly Caleche & Eau des Merveilles, Annick Goutal Folavril, Eau d'Hadrien, & Eau de Camille, Burberry Weekend, Chanel No. 5, L de Lolita, Shiseido Feminite du Bois, Donna Karan Chaos, some of the Guerlain Aqua Allegorias, and also some Demeters that are particularly realistic scents. These are truly just a few of my loves, and my favorites change with my moods; although, some are constants and always beloved, no matter my mood or the weather.

TRUE!
My absolute favorite is the skin of someone I love.

It's amazing how our memories are intertwined with our sense of smell. My first adolescent "love" will always be the intoxicating scent of his neck, Dior Fahrenheit & a wool scarf.
For summer- just about anything by Escada
Michael Kors Island
Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue
In the cooler months I love Burberry London & Brit.
