What's your favorite scent??

[KillarneyRose]

That Bath and Bodyworks post started me thinking so now I'd like to pose this question to both the ladies and the gentlemen out there....what is your favorite scent to wear and what is your favorite scent for the opposite sex to wear?

For myself, I love "Angel" by Thierry Mugler; it is billed as a chocolate, vanilla and caramel scent (hey, it works!) For my significant other, I love Gap Blue for Men. Yummmmmmy!!!

Oops, I didn't think to do a search until after I posted this thread and I see a similar poll was done last year! I'm sorry!
So, you all can just ignore it if you like and I won't be offended

Fun post! BTW KillarneyRose, I hear a lot about Angel by Thierry Mugler. I've never smelt it though! Next time I go to Sephora...it's a definite stop for me!

For me:
-Clinique Happy
-Yves Saint Laurent Baby Doll
-Prescriptives Calyx
-Hugo Woman
-Ralph by Ralph Lauren
-Stila Aqua Flaunt (in Gardenia, I think??)

Some of these I don't have...I wish I did, but some are so expensive! BTW, can you tell that I like citrus scents??!!

For men:
-Coolwater
-Gap Blue for Men (I agree, KillarneyRose!!)
-Givenchy Pi
-Silver Mountain Water by Creed
-Acqua di Gio

Alright, back to studying again.

I wear Toujours Moi and Mr. Carnation wears Jovan Musk! However, I want to explore several scents--including the one that KillarneyRose mentioned and some fruit scents. Anybody got any suggestions?

[newbie]

Gee, I should be doing my hmwk. *shaking head* LOL...but, Carnation...which types of fruit scents are you looking for? I myself love citrus scents! I'm really excited b/c Gap's new fragrance (So Pink) is supposed to be a wonderful scent with a mixture of sparkling grapefruit and some florals.

[carnation]

Citrus!!!! Oh, and anything that smells like jasmine!

[ASLFrose]

My favorite scent for me is Clinique Happy, and sometimes Bath and Body works scents.
For guys, Tommy and Curve; there's also some Nautica stuff that smells really good, but I don't know what it is.

[Alumnus who cares]

I use Hugo Boss. My ex-girlfriend gave it to me. We broke up a year and a half ago, but I still use it because it smells pretty darn good.

Hey Carnation!! Say hi to your daughter for me!! That's really cool that mother and daughter are GCers now!! I absolutely LOVE citrus scents!! For some reason, I always am attracted to citrus scents. In fact, there was an issue of InStyle a few months back with a special fragrance section. For some weird reason, there is a GROUP COLOR Test which you can take which will show which group of fragrances you are attracted to the most (i.e., floral, oriental, woodsy, sporty, etc.). I was attracted to the group with baby pink, baby blue, baby purple (is there such a color?!), soft aqua. That put me in the citrus category...and it's so true!

The scents which I listed in my first post in this thread (under "For Me:") are mostly citrus! Have you ever tried Clinique Happy, YSL Babydoll, Px Calyx, or Ralph by RL? (I'm wearing Babydoll right now--and I love it!) Those are truly citrus scents! I think Stila Aqua Flaunt in Gardenia is also pretty citrus too. In fact--I am going to Sephora tomorrow! I will go there and check out some fragrances--I will report back to you in which citrus fragrances I really liked. Have you ever been to a Sephora store near you? The Salespeople are great--they are genuinely nice, helpful, and generous! You can pick up 3 free vials of perfume samples each time you go to the store (of fragrances that you like). The vials, IMO, last quite a long time! They are also generous with cosmetic samples, too (like foundation perhaps). HTHS!@! Like I said, I will report back to you soon on what I find!

P.S. I just remembered--Davidoff's Cool Water for Women is supposed to be a very popular, light, citrusy scent! I have never smelt it though (but the men's version is DELICIOUS!!)-- *making mental note to check it out tomorrow* --will tell you about it soon!!

P.P.S. Have you ever logged on to www.icompact.com ? I love that site! They have fragrance sections, makeup sections, skincare, etc. Also www.beautybuzz.com has a big section on fragrance and fragrance smell-a-likes!

Hey localsororities, I wear Curve too; its a great scent! I read somewhere that it contains synthetic pheromones or something which is supposed to make it more appealing to the opposite sex (frisky huh? ). I also love Green Tea - its smells so fresh and I get compliments every time I wear it. For my honey, I persuaded him to wear Tiffany for Men because that is my all time favorite guy scent. He loves it now and it smells SOOO yummy on him!

[CONTENTASCANBE]

FOR WOMEN:
Curve
Clinque Happy
Pleasures
Romance
Ralph
Good Life
Lancaster (Sunwater)
Splendor
Perry Ellis 360
Design
Nautica
Cool Water

[MeezDiscreet]

for men, i also like romance and good life, as well as curve, cerutti image and my all time favorite scent for a man is cool water!!!

[SigTauJake]

I always wear Gap Blue for Men and Abercrombie...

On the ladies...Green Tea (just meet the most wonderful Zeta and she wears this) and also Tommy Girl...

[KillarneyRose]

I tried a sample of Prescriptives' "Flirt" when I was at Macy's earlier today and when I got home my husband said I smelled good. I have known this man for 10 years and he has never once noticed the scent I was wearing until now. Am I going back to Macy's tomorrow to buy a bottle? You bet your bippy I am!
