OK I NEED TO KNOW GUYZ AND FRAGRANCES- SURVEY FOR TV INTERVIEW. LOL!! I think I can think of alotta fragrances guys like to smell on girls but i want to make an unofficial poll of it, incase my list is rusty or it needs further additions to it.
OK. So im gonna be interviewed on what fragrancez guyz like to smell on girlz. I have come to learn through my experience in the fragrance industry- that fragrances with prominent musk, vanilla and/or tonka bean notez (createz chocolatey scents like Angel,Wish, Hypnotic Poison, Euphoria and the likez) as well as alot of oriental fragrances have caused some sort of frenzied reaction ( i think i should leave some guys alone with the fragrance strip ). I believe this is alwayz subjective to the individual, but in these circumstances i am forced to generalise a little, and hey i dont mind this one time! So...ok girls can do this too- if you wanna tell stories of personal experience go right ahead. Most head turning, gob smacking womens fragrances- you list em!! Thanks heaps!! Hope y'all are well No hablo espanol,no!

The Hanae Mori is THE BEST perfume I've ever purchased, I think I'll stick with it forever Lots of these have vanilla & I'm surprised the Hanae Mori doesn't but I tend to lean toward vanilla/musk/oriental scents. I like all of these:

Lolita Lempicka (woody/oriental) NOTES: Ivy Leaves, Aniseed, Amarena Heart, Violets, Iris Roots, Vetiver, Tonka Bean, Vanilla, Musk. Burberry Brit Eau de Parfum (floral-oriental) NOTES: Italian Lime, Icy Pear, Green Almond, White Peony, Sugared Almonds, Amber, Mahogany, Vanilla, Tonka Bean. Tocade by Rochas... NOTES: amber, vanilla, geranium, magnolia and iris, a rich floral aroma. Touch With Love (woody, oriental) NOTES - a light scent of aromatic woods. Dior Addict Eau Fraiche (oriental) NOTES: Silk Tree Flower, Mandarin Leaf, Orange Blossom, Night Queen Flower, Bulgarian Rose, Bourbon Vanilla Absolute, Mysore Sandalwood, Tonka Bean. Dior Addict (oriental) NOTES: Silk Tree Flower, Mandarin Leaf, Orange Blossom, Night Queen Flower, Bulgarian Rose, Bourbon Vanilla Absolute, Mysore Sandalwood, Tonka Bean. Clinique Happy (A chic, modern, multi-layered floral with sparkling, lingering fragrance of Ruby Red Grapefruit, Boysenberry Bush Flower and Hawaiian Wedding Flower.)

I find any alcohol-based perfume to be....well, the smell is just not for me, to be honest actually... some are ok, I guess, in moderation... can't stand it when someone OWNS the room with perfume, as it were
... favourites are vanilla essences occasionally ... but *gasp* I actually like the natural smell of my girlfriend, coupled with her showering regularly, of course, quite well. But yeah, vanilla essences and coconut are good, in moderation. I have perhaps what some might call a sensitive sense of smell so I can't handle a lot of perfumes very well. .

Keep going people!!
Also- if you could stick to designer fragrancez too- that would be helpful. I appreciate that there are some who don't prefer fragrancez- n thatz cool!! But i really just wanna find out the fragrancez that DO cause a reaction (not repulsive ) Lolita Lempicka is looking like a winner in this thread so far Has tonka bean, and aniseed in it, so its rich and has a licorice scent about it! So yeah keep goin!! Thanks everybody though, i appreciate everybody's input!! No hablo espanol,no!

I like heavy musky "classic" scents. I don't really care for a lot of modern fragrances which smell like fabric conditioner, hair-gel or glue to me.
Versace, L'Homme. Smells like a cross between a rich fruit-cake and marijuana. Aramis. The original. Sort of reminds me of the interior of a new car. Definite leather smell. Dunhill, Man. It smells like sweat - but in a good way. | |

I've been wearing 'Laura' by Laura Biagiotti for over ten years. It's a very subtle fragrance, so many people don't realize I'm wearing perfume until I'm telling them. But I'm often told I smell nice. | |

I love that one too, and Eternity and Ceruti 1881. I just don't buy them for myself very often. My fave mens fragrance of all time: Chanel Pour Monsieur. Wonderful! | |

Hey lilmissmissy ... do you work in the perfume industry?
I find that some fragrances that smell lovely on other women smell like cat's piss on me. Do you know why that is? ... the ones I picked earlier are the ones that always smell nice on me, or attract comments (hence me buying them more often). My husband loves me wearing Obsession - he always says I smell lovely when I wear it. I don't know what that says about me the rest of the time though. | |

And the reason why you may smell like 'cat piss' as you put it so charmingly is because we all have different body chemistry. Our phermones are as individual as our hand printz! There are alot of people who experience this- it'z not a rare occurence at all! Another thing to note that your skin chemistry will change over time too. Anything from pregnancy to ageing to an operation can cause a different reaction to the same fragrance over time! And this is why you are experiencing the fragrance change on your skin to something unpleasant. It's purely an individual thing. No hablo espanol,no!

This one I was NUTS about when I bought it but that only lasted about 2 months It's too sweet & spicy or something Liz Claiborne "Bora Bora" This is some cheap drug store shit I used to wear in high school. When I'm feeling completely goofy I *might* wear it, it still smells really good believe it or not... Bonnie Bell "Skin" | |
