Re: Perfume GTKY
What kind of perfume do you currently wear? I have been wearing Chanel CoCo Mademoiselle
What does it smell like? (floral, fresh, citrus, powdery, spicy, etc) I don't really know how to describe it, fragrantica.com describes it as a floral.
What is your favorite perfume that you could never get tired of? I have gone through two bottles of Victoria's Secret - Very Sexy Noir in the black bottle.
What perfume do you dislike? Tommy Girl. DH thinks it smells so good and I cannot stand it!
I always buy the ones my lil sis has. She smells so good. They never smell as good on me.
What kind of perfume do you currently wear? In the spring/summer, I wear Marc Jacobs Oh Lola!, or Daisy. Sometimes DKNY Be Delicious, J'Adore Dior when I am feeling fancy, CK One (because, you really can't go wrong), or Philosophy Amazing Grace.
What does it smell like? (floral, fresh, citrus, powdery, spicy, etc) Most of my spring/summer scents are citrus or floral scents.
What is your favorite perfume that you could never get tired of? Armani Code. I will wear it always...in the fall & winter.
What perfume do you dislike? H bought me a bottle of Givenchy Very Irresistible, and it is just too strong for me. I feel like I can taste it.
What kind of perfume do you currently wear? I like CK One Summer, Guess Gold, and Provocative Woman by Elizabeth Arden. I also like Lauren by Ralph Lauren. There are so many others too!
What does it smell like? (floral, fresh, citrus, powdery, spicy, etc) I think the ones I like smell soft and beautiful. I'm really bad at describing perfume.
What is your favorite perfume that you could never get tired of? Provacative Woman
What perfume do you dislike? Obsession and anything like it. I get a screaming headache every time I'm near it.

What kind of perfume do you currently wear? Vera Wang Sheer Veil and Vera Wang Truly Pink. Both discontinued, I manage to find them once in a while at TJ Maxx.
What does it smell like? Both are floral; Sheer Veil is lily of the valley and other white florals, Truly Pink is like old-fashioned roses. I love florals, but only "real" floral scents--most "it smells like flowers" just smells like chemicals, is too sweet, or is too musky.
What is your favorite perfume that you could never get tired of? The above. I lurve Sheer Veil. Super delicate and elegant. If I switched, I'd probably go for Issay Miyake.
What perfume do you dislike? Almost everything? I dislike musky perfumes and anything heavy and anything with a "sharp" overtone. And I hate anything sweet--no vanilla notes for me. I do like citrusy and woodsy scents, but I don't tend to buy them for myself.
Funny, I was actually going to make a perfume post today. I am on the last dregs of Clinique Happy. I love it, but I am looking for something new.
I prefer citrusey, light florals.
I have switched between Happy & RL Romance for years.
I pretty much dislike all CK perfumes.

"A wealth of flowers. A hint of warmth. A deepening of emotions. Wear it and have a happy heart."
In looking at the descriptions I like fruity and floral perfumes for the most part. Although a couple are more musky. I guess it just depends on the time of year or occasion.
I agree with @BPer about Armani Code.
I don't know if I dislike it but it doesn't smell good on me: Flowerbomb by Viktor and Rolf. I bought it because I thought it smelled good out of the bottle but the more I tried it the more I didn't like it.
I have a bottle of Clinique Happy never used. I don't like the smell very much. It's too strong for me. I like light and airy scents but I also like the vanilla and musky smells.
I have a billion bottles from BBW that I'll rotate between but I absolutely love the Faith Hill perfume she no longer makes. I'm currently wearing VS Heavenly and I really like that as well.
What kind of perfume do you currently wear? Marc Jacobs Daisy
What does it smell like? (floral, fresh, citrus, powdery, spicy, etc) light, fresh and slightly citrusy
What is your favorite perfume that you could never get tired of? Romance by Ralph Lauren and the Marc Jacobs Daisy they are both really light
What perfume do you dislike? My mother in law wears Elizabeth Taylor White Diamonds and it is so heavy and musky. It sticks to everything she touches.
I've tried a lot of perfumes over the years, I can't even begin to list them. I don't like any that are to strong and one of my biggest pet peeves is when people wear to much!
I own three bottles of perfume and rotate between them. Since I've been pregnant with #2, I hardly wear any at all because it makes me feel ill.
I rotate between Chanel "Chance", Coach "Poppy Flower" and the third is escaping me. Chance is sweet smelling, but almost powdery and Poppy Flower is very fruity smelling. I have some very small bottles that I keep in my makeup bag, one is "Amazing Grace" by Philosophy, a Dior (name?) and another is Coach "Poppy Blossom".
I used to have a ton of perfume and wore it all the time, but now two to three bottles is my max because I don't wear it enough and it goes bad before I finish a bottle.

@BPer, I agree. I bought a bottle of it quite a few years ago and returned it within days for that reason.

I wear (on occasion) and never get tired of Hermes- Un Jardin sure le Nil
Description I found online: Jardin sur le Nil is a sensory stroll along the Nile River. A new translation of freshness: green, mouth-watering, and tangy scents. A fragrance of light and life, generous and sparkling.
I do love the smell of Armani-Code and of Lancome-Tresor
