Okay, Chi_ZETABBW, I had to run some errands today and needed to pick up some toiletries. I came across the Calgon shelves and saw all of their body mists on display. After playing around with them for a little while, I decided on the Morning Glory fragrance. I only sprayed it on my arm once just to get a feel for the scent. Do you know that was HOURS ago? And I can still smell the stuff?! I think I'm hooked. Thanks for telling us about this little jewel. Of course, I had to pay well over two bucks for it since I bought it from the doggone Walgreens, but I'm willing to pay a little more for something that's really going to last a good while. :) Thanks again.

I alternate between:
Pink Sugar (like cotton candy and sugar cookies) and Burberry Brit (musky and sort of floral) in the fall/winter

and

Stila's Jade Blossom (it's sweet, but has a nice bite) and Clean Provence (which is like fresh soap, laundry, and lemons) in the spring/summer.

I got two compliments on the Clean Provence last week :D

I've been wanting to get DKNY's Be Delicious but I like the men's version better... I'm tempted to get it anyway.

How come your suggestions make me hungry? :p

I've fallen in love with Estee Lauder's Pure White Linen.

I also really like Mary Kay's Journey.

I'm in the market for a new perfume. just finished Tresor. I get excited because where I go they flood me with so many samples, it's a month and a half before I use my actual bottle! PARIS HILTON is one that's standing out.

Munchkin03 01-02-2008 12:38 AM

Narciso Rodriguez
Jean Paul Gaultier
Stella by Stella McCartney

Right now my favorite perfume is Falling In Love by Philosophy! It smells soooooo good! (in the voice of TGS). :)

love love LOVE this. It's flowery without being old lady. I love all her other scents too.

I'm so glad she turned out to be a cool celebrity daughter, especially since I want to be her stepmom. :p

[QUOTE=OOhsoflyDELTA#9;1571668]Diamonds by Armani---QUOTE]


My Daddy bought that for me for Christmas. I love it already.


In trying to pick my scent, I found that I also enjoy:

J'Adore by Dior
Unforgivable by Papa Diddy Puff (I just can't bring myself to purchase it after those ridiculous commercials.)
Incanto Charms by Ferragamo
Sheer Veil by Vera Wang

The Diamonds was meant to replace my bottle of Romance, but my Hanae Mori is running out too - I'll have to buy another bottle. It'll be my signature scent.

Pretty08 01-03-2008 02:24 PM

Goddess
 
I use Baby Phat Goddess by Kimora Lee Simmons now. But previously I used Romance by Ralph Lauren. Both smell wonderful to me.

skeeliteful 01-03-2008 04:09 PM

My all-time favorite perfume is Angel by Theirry Mugler. But I also like J'Adore, Light Blue, and Marc Jacobs. I received a sample of Narciso Rodriguez and I might be adding this to my list of favorites.

I just picked up the Sweet Pea fragrance from Bath & Body Works. I never knew that they came out with an actual perfume until this weekend. I love me some Sweet Pea!!!!

SummerChild 03-27-2008 06:13 AM

I was wearing Stella a few years ago...then my assistant started wearing it so I had to lay off and let her have that for awhile ... at least until her bottle ran out. LOL.

My sister wears Jean Paul Gaultier. She also wears Issy Miake? That's a cool scent, if you like spices.

Aideclaire,
Do you like the florals? I see a lot of that in your list and I like florals too. I used to wear Michael Kors by Michael Kors back in 2002 or so. How do you like Black? I haven't smelled that one.

I wish we could go on the internet and sample fragrances. LOL. It would save time. :)

My old favorites are still working for me, but I'm slowly getting new stuff in the mix.
For instance, I bought a bottle of Creed Spring Flower (a tester) at a secondhand store for about 20% of its retail. I'm going to splurge on Creed's Virgin Island Water for Boule as my day fragrance. My night fragrance is still a TK, either Tom Ford Black Orchid or Chanel's Coco. These packing restrictions are just :rolleyes: ugh.

aideclaire 06-15-2008 07:00 PM

Elizabeth Arden's Mediteranian(sp)...yummmmmmmy

NinjaPoodle 06-15-2008 07:40 PM

I just got a bottle of Escada Moon Sparkle

Have you ever tried any of the Bond No. 9 fragrances? They look and sound so intruiging, but for the price not only does it need to smell good, it should do my dishes and feed the cat too. LOL

33, I've actually tried some of the Bond No. 9 in samples. I like the Chelsea Flowers. The prices are on par w/Creed.

As a side note, Laurice Rahme, Bond No. 9's founder, first brought Creed to the U.S.

I just love everything that has a high or low tone of vanilla!! it isnt 2 strong but not very very light. As a result i Love Vanilla Lace from Victoria Secret and Warm Vanilla Sugar from bath and body works they both smell so good and i have been wearing it for so long and i still get compliments
