Hi mylotters, Missing some friends here in mylot...I hope all doing good.. Coming to the topic, I generally won't use perfumes..I don't hate those things but I never used to that..Nowadays some of my friends also started using perfumes too much..Some gives a pleasant smell but some it is irritating.. Recently I just went for taking new dresses with my friends..so when I saw some body spray (perfumes)..I just asked my friend which will be the best..He told "addidas Ice dive" will be good..And it also has a good smell..Now I won't use daily but sometimes..and it looks good.. Some people hate if they see someone using perfumes..But it is irritating when the smell is too much. Do you use perfumes daily..? or you hate perfumes..?

I find them irritating for the most part. It is better to wear too little than too much. Very occasionally I will put on essential oils from nice herbs, spices, or fruits such as lavendar, grapefruit, or vanilla. Here is a nice article on making one's own perfume: http://www.ehow.com/how_4480752_make-own-perfume-fragrance.html

Hiya Gany, My Son is using "Joops" at the moment he puts quite a bit of it on usually on a Saturday Night too. I have just been in the Room and I can smell that all over the place and in my other SonĀ“s Room is Boss. The other one uses Loewe as well that is quite a nice one not to heavily charged either. I still use the Carolina Herrera one as her Perfumes last for ages and she makes them for Men too. Although the only time Perfumes are used here is of a Weekend mainly for the obvious for going out somewhere.

I hate being around perfumes. People always put on too much--perfume is supposed to be an intimate thing, detected only if someone is very close to you. I can smell most people who wear perfumes and colognes six feet away! It chokes me. I don't wear scents myself and try to buy laundry soap and other things with no scent.

I use boby spray and perfume only on special occasions. I like a more expensive fragrance and don't use it daily. I enjoy a clean spell or even alittle on the herbal side like lavender. That is my favorite. I don't use alot and I know that puting it on your pulsing spots is best so not too much.

I used perfume daily but I want the mild scent only. I hate those unpleasant scent perfumes, its bad to my nose. However, no two persons are alike, so we can't say others on what scent we want.

everyday no, but when i need to go to work i put and bring one as well. i am a musician and after an hour of set i change clothes then splash cologne or spray a little perfume. but at home i do not use perfume for i take a bath 4 to 5 times a day plus i have a four year old son so using perfume is not advisable. after bath me and my son put powder or baby cologne, so that sometimes my wife complains that the baby cologne is for the baby only har har har

I do use perfumes daily. I think it had been a part of my routine as I go for work. But I don't spray in that much perfume because like what you've said it's so irritating to the nose. I just spray a bit of it or I would describe it as gentle. I guess it's quite good enough to smell good while at work.

I use perfumes but just occasionally. Perfumes are good if you only use a very small amount of it. I like to smell of perfumes if the smell of so slight that you end up smelling where the smell is coming from. There are people who thinks that because they have a very expensive perfume, they spray their entire body with it and you can almost smell them a kilometer away and when their near you you get dizzy because of the strong smell. What I use are not perfumes but baby colognes on a daily basis, it keeps me smelling like a baby all day.

I frequently use perfumes since I am always going out. It makes me smell sweeter and makes me more confident especially in dealing with people. However, not all perfumes are good for me. I prefer sweet smelling perfumes for some is irritating to the nose.. These smell would preferably be that of flowers or fruits such as passion fruit, apple, watermelon, etc. My taste is like of penshoppe savannah, or others that smells like that...

I have lots of perfumes at home... but I never get to use them all the times since I don't like how some of them smell.But now I have to use them because I go to school all the time. And it's such a waste to not use them..I prefer colognes because their smell is not so strong.

I am one that has to apply everyday, and i use a scent that everyone and anyone that comes in contact with my scent love it so much that they stop me to ask. I kid you not when I tell you even men, strangers at that, will stop me to ask and write it down for them as it is a scent to die for. If I was ever to chance and change my perfume I have been immediately asked why as they love it so much.

I seldom use perfumes. Usually i'll feel dizzy when i smell too much of perfumes. I do have a few but all are present from my friends. You are right that minor perfume is ok but too much really irritates the surrounding people. :D

Some fragrances give me a headache and I do not care for them. I also know that other people have allergies to fragrance and I do not want to offend them. Fragrance or scent is nice in small quantities but I seldom wear it.

It depends on my mood. I think the perfume can give people good mood since it smells great. When I dress well or have a good mood and I don't go out in a hurry, then I will use the perfume so that it's perfect. I love China

I use perfume or scented oil occasionally but not every day mostly after a shower or bath, I use lightly scented body spray with a matching lotion. I make it a point not to over use perfumes because I find it annoying when people use too much perfume or body spray because it dosent smell good if a person pours the entire container of perfume on themselves.

Hi, I used to use perfume when I was working in the office. But now I am a full time housewife and I seldom use my perfume, it has been keep well in my cabinet for few years and I am not sure whether the smell of my perfume has changed or not. I used to like Davidoff perfume for ladies, it smell nice. Since I resigned from my job and being a full time housewife, I never shop for any perfumes again.

I don't wear perfume every day but I do have a few bottles of different perfumes that I use depending on my mood, as some are stronger smelling than others. As for men's perfumes, I really like them (some are nicer smelling than the ladies versions) but some guys do go a bit over the top with them. Less is more my friend. My favourite for the guys? JOOP!

Well I do use perfume sometimes because I want to smell good or sometimes I will just use body lotion that smells good that always does the trick, but I never like to go overload because their is girls that put on a lot and it always makes my eyes hurt cause I use contacts and I also feel that my throat hurts when I smell it because it's just to strong way to much.
