Perfume poll - Page 14

My go-tos are:
1. Pure Poison by Dior-I wear this when I go out. It's a little stronger and sexier than I like for the daytime.
2. LAVANILA Vanilla Coconut-It's heavy on the vanilla with a little coconut. It's a good date scent for me because it's sweet but not overwhelming and it's a little comforting, too.
3. Philosophy Amazing Grace-This is what I usually wear during the day if I wear actual perfume because it's light and clean.
4. Plain ole oils...Nag Champa and Sandalwood-Most of the time this is what I'm wearing day to day. It's the easiest to put on in small quantities but still keep a nice scent all day, and I just like it.

Versace Bright Crystal is what I currently have & LOVE.
Before that I used Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue and I still love that.
I also really like Curious by Britney Spears.. My mom recently found me a small bottle of it. I used to wear it a lot so it's kinda nice to have around now.

For guys I love Polo Blue, David Beckham (but I bought it for my dad so I wouldn't want my SO to wear it) and have always always loved Hollister Drift (but it's discontinued)

There is no greater smelling perfume than Attraction, which was on the market about three years (or so) ago, but Lancome discontinued it.

I have no idea why, so I'm stuck to buying it on Ebay by a reputable seller who, apparently, has all of their old stock. It's expensive even on Ebay, but well worth it. I'm going to be so sad when I'm not able to find it anywhere else.

My favorite is Pink by Victoria's Secret (the original scent, non of the "fruity & bright" etc. crap). I really like j'adore by Dior as well.

But my everyday scent is Sea Island Cotton Body Splash by Bath & Body works.

^^^^Oooooh yes, I forgot about the casual, everyday scent. Lemon & Pomegranate body splash by C.O. Bigelow (Bath & Body Works). It smells like Skittles.

My absolute favorite is Coach Legacy. It's light, tasty and classy, perfect for special occasions or everyday wear.

I got a sample of Dolce & Gabbana Rose the One a couple of weeks ago from Sephora. I love it!!!

Munchkin03 · #9 04-04-2011, 05:15 PM

It's time for a Spring/Summer fragrance!

I'm debating between Annick Goutal's "Petite Cherie" and Dior "Cherie." (Clearly, there's a theme here.) My fall/winter scents this year were Narciso Rodriguez and Stella...love them but a liiitle too heavy these days.

Bumping a couple benign girly threads because ERMAGEHRD TEH SPAMZ.

Has anyone seen Lovely by Sarah Jessica Parker anywhere lately??

Here is another very good source for decants that a real perfume devotee friend prefers to The Perfume Court, which I have also been very satisfied with.

I have also been very satisfied with The Fragrance Shop, which makes excellent replications of the originals of many classics that have become mere shadows of themselves due to reformulation rules in Europe. The quality is excellent, as is the service.

I love Jo Malone's Oud and Bergamot, but unfortunately, it doesn't last that long. I get lots of compliments on it, though.

Hey, have you tried the CoCo Chanel?? It is totally designed NOT to smell like Grandma's Chanel No.5. It is focused for the modern career/college girl who wants to be sophisticated like her Mom and Grandma.

But for all who love classics, Shalimar has been reconfigured and is better than ever. Gave my daughters the Britany cologne and they love it!!

I used to wear Coco but I got tired of it.

This thread reminds me to get some Pink Sugar. OMG.

I LOVE Coco. I even spray it on my pillows when they come out of the dryer.

I really need to get a bottle of the Coco Mademoiselle, too. It's so sweet-smelling...I love it, too.
