I've been looking for a good fall/winter fragrance, but I've found most of them too heavy for my tastes (or they mess with my allergies). I ended up getting Noa Fleur. I almost came home with whatever Escada put out for the summer, though. I love their fragrances!

I still wear Chanel Allure (I guess I like smelling like somebody's Grandma) and bought Ines de la Fressange from sephora.com a while ago. For fun, I have a trial size Aquolina Pink Sugar that I wear sometimes. I usually ask the husband for a new scent each Christmas.

Sometimes, I check the free samples from sephora.com and if they have samples of perfume, I'll buy something small just to test them out. In fact, there are a few on there right now I'd like, but we can't really afford to buy anything.

The husband doesn't wear any cologne, and I kind of like it that way.

See, I don't *personally* think it smells like a grandma (or at least not my grandmas lol); I think it smells awesome. The kid was a douchebag anyway, so his opinion on perfume isn't valid. I still love Allure, I've been wearing it more at night though when I go out and then wearing the Marc Jacobs during the day.

I like it because it's something I can see myself still wearing in 30 years, but I don't feel old wearing it now. It's classic. It has a *slight* powderish dry down on me (and normally I hate anything powder-scented), but nothing overpowering, it's just nice.

Well, last night at Ulta I tried and really liked....

With Love - Hilary Duff. I might have to actually buy it.

I also sniffed the Vera Wang Princess and it didn't do anything for me.

I would have to call your craziness on that, except one of the best eyeshadows that I've ever used was Mary-Kate And Ashley....

I was at the outlets on Black Friday and EVERYTHING at Banana Republic was 40% off - including the perfume! I got myself a huge bottle and a small one for boyfriend.

I got a sample of the Vera Wang Princess and it smells really nice. However, I noticed as it wore off it started to smell funky, like some sort of werid metalliac scent. Anyone else notice this?

Let me know how the staying power is on these - I saw them the last time I was in BR and was SUPER tempted.

I've worn their classic before and it has lasted for most of the day. I don't have mine with me now because I couldn't carry it on since it was over 3 oz. and couldn't go in my magical 3-1-1 sandwich bag.

I just bought Cashmere Mist for my sister for Christmas, it smells really good. I recently picked up Armani Code for myself.
