What scent or fragrance (cologne or perfume) do you wear most often? Why?  email this discussion to a friend?

I tend to wear vanilla scents most often. I've had so many comments on how "yummy" I smell, from both men and women, that I know the scent obviously is good on me. I also love the Cotton Candy scent and will sometimes wear that if I feel a bit more "playful". Both scents I get from Walmart and it's the Body Fantasies brand. I've tried expensive brands and while some smell ok they rarely seem to last as long as this much less expensive version so why pay more!?

What do you wear most often and why?

I love Very Sexy by Victoria's Secret! I love the way it smells on me. Plus my husband can't resist it! I also use this new lotion from Suave called 'Happy'. It's tangerine scented and something about the citrus scent actually gives me energy.

I wear Vanilla Musk most of the time. I think it smells good on me. I get mine from Walmart, also. The pharm carries it also. I love the smell. I first noticed it on someone else and thought it smelled good and bought it.

I guess I am a floral kind of girl, unsure, I wear Happy, by Clinque during the day when I am cleaning the house, it is a clean floral smell and then I wear Basic Instinct by Victoria Secret's when I am at home with my boyfriend and family in the evenings, it is a kind of floral musk smell.

I got my daughter some of that cotton candy scent last year at the after Christmas clearance. It was the only thing I could find that seemed suitable for a 7 yr. old girl. I ended up taking it away from her after I caught her spraying it in her room for air freshener. LOL
Did you also try the Sugar Cookie scent? It had more of a vanilla scent to it.

But for me, I like nearly any flower scent. I like White Shoulders but can't afford it that often.


myLot reputation of 99/100. thinkingoutloud (3182)  5 years ago

That's expensive air freshener! LOL!

Gumball, I wanted to leave a comment because I had the same problem trying to find a scent that I liked (and that seemed appropriate) for my younger daughter. I was surprised to find that they still sell "Love's Baby Soft" which I remember from when I was her age. It was the first scent my mother ever bought for me. I got her the body spray and she just loves it. It's powdery, so I find it nice for a young girl :)


myLot reputation of 95/100. Gumball (464)   ranked 5 out of 82 in scents and fragrances  5 years ago

I thought about that one too but she doesn't like the smell of regular baby powder (she likes the lavender better) that much. I figured something different would go over better. :)


myLot reputation of 95/100. Gumball (464)   ranked 5 out of 82 in scents and fragrances  5 years ago

I almost forgot - I'd bought it on after Christmas clearance for 75% off so it was under $3.00 for the small bottle.


myLot reputation of 99/100. thinkingoutloud (3182)  5 years ago

What a great deal! Lavender is such a lovely scent - your daughter has good taste! We use lavender sachets in some of our closets and the girls like them in their pj drawer. I'm going to have to look into this cotton candy scent you folks are discussing... one of my daughters did mention it but I have yet to find it on a shelf here. My other girl has a Caramel body spray and, in spite of being a really sweet smell, it fades to be quite yummy. LOL... all these food smells!


myLot reputation of 95/100. Gumball (464)   ranked 5 out of 82 in scents and fragrances  5 years ago

Is what she has a plain caramel scent or is it maybe Pear Caramel? I was at Walmart last night and saw that plus the Calgon Marshmallow and the Cotton Candy scent. I even got a couple of other scents - Sugar Vanilla Fantasy, Calgon Vanilla Swirl, Apple Fantasy and one small one that smells good enough to eat - Vanilla Buttercream made by Bodycology. It smells just like buttercream frosting. LOL


myLot reputation of 99/100. thinkingoutloud (3182)  5 years ago

I had to run up to her room and look LOL It's Calgon Smiley Sweet Love body spray and it's just caramel. Since I'm currently doing the south beach diet, I think I need to get several of those scents you described and live vicariously through my nose instead of my mouth! ROFL! :)

I don't wear much cologne or perfume..but I do like the very light scent of Philosophy's AMazing Grace,Pure Grace and Baby Grace...I wear the solid or the spray. I really like the solid in the winter and the spray in the warmer weather....people mainly comment that I smell so "fresh"...it isn't an over powering scent but gives me a good feeling!!! My husband has a bloodhound's sense of smell since his liver transplant...so I try not to put him into olfactory hell but wearing too heavy of a cologne!!!


myLot reputation of 89/100. hockeygal4ever (5360)   ranked 2 out of 82 in scents and fragrances  5 years ago

Oh I will have to check Philosophy out! I like a fresh clean scent. I will often buy Clean Cotton by Bath & Body Works for the summer. I also like the sweet smells, like my vanilla and the cotton candy. I have an awesome pomegrande scent by Bath & Body too. It's divine!

Lately I've been wearing a new perfume oil from a company called Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab(or BPAL for short).
The scent I just purchsed is called "White Rabbit". Here is the description for the BPAL site....

WHITE RABBIT
Strong black tea and milk with white pepper, ginger, honey and vanilla, spilled over the crisp scent of clean linen.

I think it's smells heavenly and it's a perfect year round scent.
If you love perfumes, or just reading about scent descriptions (I have spent hours reading the descriptions on this site...they are just so fun!), check out:
http://www.blackphoenixalchemylab.com/

The prices are also pretty affordable and with oils, a little goes a long way so I'm really feeling like I'm getting my money's worth.


cherry_pig (93)  5 years ago

Oh a friend gave me a BPAL she didn't want called "Devil's Night". I love it. I have yet to get into the whole BPAL collecting myself. But I am tempted.


myLot reputation of 99/100. twilight021 (1620)   ranked 7 out of 82 in scents and fragrances  5 years ago

Yeah, they have some pretty wacky fragrences, but I just love reading the descriptions. I could stay on the site for hours!


myLot reputation of 89/100. hockeygal4ever (5360)   ranked 2 out of 82 in scents and fragrances  5 years ago

Interesting indeed! I'll have to check it out! I always love to find a new scent!

I don't wear perfume very often, but when I do I wear Cool Water. I'm also fond of Gardenia scented lotion from Avon. It's actually one of the reasons why I'm going to start selling Avon.


myLot reputation of 85/100. ajmccrary1986 (376)   ranked 27 out of 82 in scents and fragrances  5 years ago

I sell Avon as well. Do you know other people who might want to sell Avon?


myLot reputation of 89/100. hockeygal4ever (5360)   ranked 2 out of 82 in scents and fragrances  5 years ago

I've never found an Avon scent that I liked. Even their botanical collections don't seem to appeal to me. Not sure what it is. I always say no matter what the scent they seem to have the same base to them or something, sort of like they all smell the same with just a hint of something different added.


myLot reputation of 95/100. Gumball (464)   ranked 5 out of 82 in scents and fragrances  5 years ago

Hockeygal4ever, have you tried Avon's Sweet Honesty? I also love most of Avon's Naturals line. I've sometimes found better buys on Avon products on eBay than I have through the reps.

My skin tends to be very dry, so I use a lot of creams and lotions that are scented so I don't use a perfume on top of it.

I like the Japanese Cherry Blossom scent from Bath and Body works. Everyone seems to like it on me and frequently give it as gifts.


myLot reputation of 89/100. hockeygal4ever (5360)   ranked 2 out of 82 in scents and fragrances  5 years ago

For some reason I find the Bath & Body works don't last as long as some of the cheaper stuff. That always amazed me. I will say that when you purchase the "cologne" bottles, the more expensive versions, they do tend to stay on a bit longer. I love a lot of the B&B stuff, especially the clean cotton and some of the sugary stuff like Sugar Cookie and oooh... their apple scent in the fall!!!!!
