GTKY: Perfume?

Do you wear perfume or body spray?

What do you wear most often?

 

I LOVE perfume. I own more than I care to admit, and I also own a ton of body sprays from B&BW.

My favorite perfume is Bright Crystal by Versace.  It's a sweet smell. More "fruity" with a floral hint.

  • Aawww, did you read my FFFC and decide to Bring the Fun back?  Thanks! 

    Do you wear perfume or body spray?  I wear both (not at the same time silly, but one or the other)

    What do you wear most often?  Most often I wear Sarah Jessica Parker's "Lovely", or B&BW sprays.

  • I wear perfume every day and feel GROSS without it, but I am a very sweaty individual. My only perfume for the last few years is Juicy Couture Viva La Juicy :) I should probably investigate new perfumes, but I'm far too lazy.

  • Chanel Chance Eau Tendre is my favorite perfume of all time.

    Close second is White Jasmine and Mint by Jo Malone. I am wearing that now b/c it's more of a spring/summer scent.

  • DKNY Delicious - my fav!!!

    If not that, I wear Victoria's Secret Secret Charm or Love Spell lotion. 

  • Most perfumes and scented things give me horrible migraines so I don't really wear any. I used to love happy from clinique and heaven from the gap.  Those were mild enough not to really give me headaches.  Body spray- I love pink grapefruit from B&BW.

    D*mn right I did. :) I was thinking I wanted to find a new perfume to try, when I read your post. It was a no-brainer. :)

     

    To the poster about Britney Spears: I like them too! In college a friend got each of us in our group one of the little bottles. I had my DH buy me the full size for Christmas. :) It's the one in a short blue bottle, that kind of looks like a top. I don't know which one it is though.

  • Ooh, fun.

    My standby is Clinque Happy, as dated as that may be. I can't tell you how many compliments I get.........including, but not limited to, a big, burly guy at the deli counter last week. With my H standing right next to me (so the dude wasn't trying to hit on me...at least I hope not).

    I got Lola by Marc Jacobs for Christmas so I've been wearing that lately and really like it. The bottle itself is like a work of freaking art.

  • I have a few favorites. I LOVE Michael by Michael Kors, and Daisy by Marc Jacobs for perfumes. For body spray, I like VS body sprays or B&BW.

  • I love perfume! Right now I have two different Gap perfumes on the go, and a Nina Ricci one which I'm not totally in love with so I'll be happy when it's gone. I have lots of body sprays but I usually only use them after a shower or bath at night before bed. 

     I really want a DKNY Delicious perfume next, they smell amazing!

  • I am obsessed with perfumes and body sprays! My go to is absolutely Britney's Fantasy. I'm not even ashamed to admit it. I am a B.Spears fanatic, and it smells AMAZING. I get 10 compliments a day when I wear it. 

    Other favorites: Burberry Brit, Oh! Lola by Marc Jacobs, Miss Dior Cherie, Viva La Juicy, Michael Kors Hollywood, Taylor Swift's Wonderstruck and all the Benefit fragrances are yummy.

    ***This is super flame worthy ...The Snookie and Justin Beiber perfumes smell incredible! Although I refuse to buy them, I was surprised.

  • I used to have a larger collection but now its just a few bottles. Jessica Simpson, Paris Hilton, Donna Karan, and a bottle we bought in France (ooh la la!!) I make it a point to never repeat a fragrance because the smell always reminds me of certain places and times and I want to keep it that way...crazy I know. However....the only perfume that I refuse to lose is Issey Miyake. I will wear that on every special occasion until the day I die , I love it that much :)

    Im glad im not the only one who mentioned that! Do you ever find it goes "bad" though.  Since I don't wear perfume every day I found after a while the perfume didn't smell good anymore and would need to get a new bottle which ticked me off.  Curious if thats ever happened to anyone else 

  • I work in a lab where we can't wear perfume or scented stuff, so am not in the habit of wearing it.  The (very) few times I've put some on DH hasn't really noticed either.
