I used to wear that all the time!! But now I switch between Champs Elysee(very nice) and Amriage..which smells delicious. I have also became a fan of J'adore but I know too many people who wear it. I do like the idea of signature scent but I'm ADD so I get bored very easily!!

I've worn Gap dream since I was 13, and last year I bought Bath and Body Works Imagine...Peace perfume. And I just found out a few months ago they cancelled the Imagine perfume line! I have half a bottle left, hopefully it'll last me until I can find a suitable replacement.

I also like Clinique Happy and Ralph Lauren. Mmmm, so good. But I'm a cheapskate, and they're a little expensive for my budget right now.

I've been wearing L'eau de Issey by Issey Miyake ever since I bought a bottle in Paris (yes, France) after graduation. (Hooray for being stingy for 3 years and saving $.) Right now, I am coveting the new Le Feu de Issey--it's spicier. I also have a tiny bottle of Sandalwood oil from the Body Shop that I wear for Sexy Moments. It's still 3/4 full--what does that mean?

After my shower each day I spray a cloud of scent and proceed to stride through it, head up and shoulders back, like the Queen in a parade. It is my favorite moment of the morning.

My absolute two favorite perfumes ever are:

*Amazing Grace by Philosophy (compliments gallore plus it's one of those scents that just work with my body chemistry)

*Il Baccio by Marcella Borghese (haven't bought it in a few years b/c it's a bit pricey but trust me ITS GORGEOUS!)

.

fluff, you are in good company with my Jello. the men's version is his signature scent--i recently stocked up on it for him, and i can never get tired of smelling it on him. when he gets dressed in the morning, i can't let him walk out the door without a smooch.

i was a Happy girl for the past couple of years, and last night, Jello presented me with L'eau d'Issey as well as Gucci Envy as an early Mother's Day/cheering me up from an absolutely miserable day present. I am wearing Gucci Envy right now and I am in heaven. i am a walking sex machine, i swear. it lasts for a long time, it seems.

my mom is an Estee Lauder White Linen woman--it always makes me happy whenever i smell it. my dad is a Herrera for Men man--a very good choice.

Q still has that baby smell that you can never quite recapture. sometimes i inhale whenever i zerbert his tummy, and i try and hold that scent in my memory for when he is going to leave for college.

Anyone remember an old Gap scent called "Om"? Kinda woodsy, musky. Yeah, I still have a big ole bottle of that from my days as a Gap salesgirl. The scent seems to be getting better with age.

I used to use Neutrogena sesame oil moisturizer for the lovely smell until it started making me break out. Now I use the sesame oil lotion and follow with liberal spritzing of Bath and Body works Warm Vanilla Sugar body splash. Yum.

OM was a great scent. Beats me why they discontinued it. I'm still using dream, but i'm thinking of switching it up a little. Lately i've been using Avon's line of cucumber melon...mmmm summery

i used to wear graham cracker by Demeter. i also liked Dirt... it sounds silly but it smelled really good, light and fresh. i heard that Sharon Stone wears it as her signature scent. my only problem with Demeter is that they dont last long enough.

i love Ellen Tracy, Lolita Lempika and Dior Addict.

Lovethebag, i want to try Amazing Grace by Philosophy, ive heard great things about it, what does it smell like??

right now i wear the White Musk oil from Body Shop, its like sex in a bottle.

I have Pleasures, which I have always loved, Miracle, and Amarige (sp?). I alternate them, but only at night or on the weekends. (My boss is allergic to perfume and so nobody in the entire company can wear it. Bah.) I usually spritz it on my chest and in my hair. My problem is that, no matter what I use or how much of it I put on, it never seems to last more than an hour or so. I have been on an obsessive quest recently for all things almond scented. Does anyone know of a good, long-wearing, almondy perfume?

I wear Ralph Lauren Romance almost every day. I was never a scent person, although I love the way my boyfriend smells (Gucci Envy--mmmm...). Just before I left for a 6 week trip last summer, he wanted to buy me perfume so that every time I put it on while I was traveling I'd think of him. We went to pick something out together, and when we smelled the Romance, we both said simultaneously, "that's the one." It's floral, pretty girly, but not too much; I always think that the commercials and the name capture it perfectly. Makes me think of pale pink and lace.

I never payed attention to this thread before! Well, I switch between:
-Bath and Body Works' "Imagine...peace" for everyday use

- "Ralph Lauren Romance" for dates and when I want to feel 'girly'. My boy bought it for me last year for my birthday and I love it - but I think he's allergic!

Since the imagine...peace is discontinued (fairystar, I feel your pain) I recently bought "The Healing Garden Waters - Pure Joy."

I love the way YSL's Opium smells but I associate with an old friend too come to think of it. Whenever I catch a whiff of it now I always end up doing a double take to try to pick out who I passed that was wearing it

I also like the idea of having a signature scent but there are so many different scents to choose from, I just hate having to stick with one for the rest of my life haha.

My current favorite: Pleasure Intense.

My absolute favorite perfume ever is Chanel's Coco Mademoiselle. It is expensive, but it lasts. I got it as a gift to myself after I won $250 bucks in a swing dance contest, and I've never looked back. My office gave me a big bottle of it last summer as a gift and it's not even half gone yet!

I used to mix my own perfume at Garden Botanika--nobody smelled just like me. I had a strange mix (apple melon, floral musk and pear) that just worked perfectly. I may still mail-order some of it from them, for nostalgia's sake. It's only $20 a bottle, but it doesn't last as long as my Chanel. I go through a bottle every six months or so of the GB stuff.

I am not normally a perfume-wearing gal... walking through the perfume aisles makes my eyes water. But I love Coco Mademoiselle. It's my absolute fave too.

I've been wearing Origin's Ginger Essence and loving it, but it's about to run out and I don't have the funds to replace

I still have a TON of the body lotion, maybe I'll just wear that and hope I get the same effect until I can afford to replace the perfume.

I wear CK Truth: Two spritzes into the air chest level that I walk into naked and one on my writst that I rub on my other wrist. Perfect!
When I'm going some place fancy or just want to feel extra sexy wear YSL Opium (gift from my mum that I love!) in my hair and on my wrists or behind my knees

I get such a kick out of reading this thread because I have absolutely no idea what any of these fragrances smell like (with a few exceptions though)! Ah, my age is showing!

The one scent I wear all the time, get many compliments on, and it's cheap to boot is Tabu. I will wear Red Door once in awhile but it's a strong scent. But my other absolute favorite is St. John by Marie Gray but it's pricey so I'll buy that on-line when I can find a good price.

Perfumes smell too chemically for me and make my nose all sneezy. I get tons of "mmmm you smell good" comments with Palmers Cocoa Butter, used all over twice daily. Combined with Lush Skinny Dip shower gel, it's the closest I have to a signature scent.

My absolute favorite for the last year or so has been Dolce & Gabbana's Light Blue - it is the cleanest, freshest perfume I've ever smelt - - every friend I've introduced to it is now wearing it.. but I must admit I hate the ever popular Origins Ginger Essence - it smells like furniture polish.

I am definitely a Mademoiselle girl. It is so great, and I need some more. But it's too expensive right now, so I'm trying to hold out til Christmas.
I also used to wear one of the personally mixed Garden Botanika perfumes: Apple Melon Vanilla Mint. Sounds really weird, but it was so fresh and yummy. My dad mixed it, actually.
For now, I am using the Mademoiselle sparingly and wearing either the Gaultier summer fragrance or Clique's Simply on regular days.

I recently started wearing Dior Addict and got complimented by a very cute boy on my scent. Yay!

I'll wear Angel by Thierry Mugler for the rest of my life, though.

For summer, I found the BEST cologne. It's actually for men, and it's from The Body Shop. It's called Jivari. They say it has ginger and black pepper. It smells really clean.

I tend to OD on perfume because I love it so much. I'm sure my fellow commuters HATE me in the AM when I am freshly spritzed.

Ah, my days selling men's cologne finally pay off...it's pronounced YOOP.

It's the designer's name. I like that one. A lot of women wear men's, actually.

Anyone ever hear of Gendarme? It was a men's cologne that was created for people with sensitive skin. It was nice and light. I really liked that one. hmm.
