What is your favorite scent?

CheshireCat · Post by **CheshireCat** » Wed Aug 30, 2006 12:40 pm

After someone complementing me on smelling good, (that's a compliment after working with dogs all day) i was wondering what scent ya'll prefer. On yourself and the opposite sex.

Every day scent for me is Red Door, it's Halston for hte little black dress. On men I like Halston 1-12 and Dakar.

CSquared --

Good question!

For men, I think you mean Drakkar Noir? If so, I love that on my hubby, along with Polo Ralph Lauren (I know, I know, it's very common, but I do love it!)

I wear either Angel by Thierry Mugler, Opium by Yves St. Laurent, sugar vanilla body spray, or my husband's cologne -- I love to have his smell all around me

Women and nice perfume do it for me, thats for sure.

I think there's nothing sexier than a nice smelling lady!!

My favourite fragrance? an oldie, but a goody: Channel no. 5

My favourite mans fragrance is a choice between Pole or Nico Cerutti 1881 pou homme. I like "Dry" fragrances

Zinky - I just looked at your profile pic and am weak at the knees.. WOW :-4 !!! As fer perfume - I don't use much and don't use it often. Two main ones. YSL Opium, and Bulgari Omnia. I once had an Avon perfume called midnight carnation or something like that - gorgeous. And then there was White Mink... Mmmmmmmm... And of course ze Chanel No 5 (for ze nacked afternoon romps with one of my Brians ... Ahhhhhhhhhhhh.. .)

With perfume, subtlety rools OK!!!

(Opium isn't subtle of course :sneaky: )

Couldn't agree more, there is nothing worse than sitting next to someone that has taken a bath in their cologne!

Or to get on an elevator with man or woman who reeks!! You can't get away.

yes, marinating in your scent of choice is never a good thing.....:yh_sick

You know, when I was younger, I knew this Sherrif's Deputy that worked security. I had a huge crush on him and had to give him hugs everytime I saw him. He smelled like lavander, very subtle. Very sexy!

Lulu2 · Post by **Lulu2** » Thu Aug 31, 2006 11:28 am

A year or so ago, I stood behind a gorgeous Italian woman at the airport in Tirana, Albania. She smelled soooooo good! I tried to ask what scent she was using, but she spoke no English.

I SNIFFED and SMILED and said "BELLA, BELLA!"

She laughed and said a LOT of Italian words....but I understood "CLINIQUE," so, when I came home I went to the Clinique counter and told them my gorgeous Italian woman story.

They asked me to describe the scent and then they handed me a bottle of AROMATIQUE. I love it! And I always remember the tall, gorgeous Italian woman...

But, as you've said above....a little goes a long way.

Bez · Post by **Bez** » Thu Aug 31, 2006 11:57 am

My 2 most loathed perfumes....Opium & White Musk....also Vanilla and anything fruity like Strawberries...I don't mind slightly citrus though.

I normally go for something like Musk or Sandalwood...

I've been looking for something very soft like 'Baby Powder' for years....any ideas ??

that reminds me of a perfume but I can't remember which one....I'll have to do some sniffing next time I'm at the store...

I can recognize that fragrance every time I smell it on someone! My sister used to wear it years ago and it's very distinct.

Gosh Angelica. That rates high on my list too, though I haven't had any of that in years. A lovely perfume.

AussiePam · Post by **AussiePam** » Fri Sep 08, 2006 4:21 am

I only wear one or two perfumes these days, Wendy. They kind of become part of your you-ness. Mostly Opium in winter and Bulgari Omnia in summer. But I do very fondly remember White Linen. Maybe I'll put that on my Christmas wish list.
