What's Your Scent?

I would love your help! I'm ready for a new perfume, and have been for a little while now, but I get SO overwhelmed visiting Sephora and department stores and smelling fifty different scents. I get frustrated and end up with a headache and just leave the store. The past two perfumes I've had, I have LOVED! But I've actually re-bought them both and used them again, so it's time for something new. What is your favorite? Any scent that is mentioned I will check out! Below are my two most recent staples, Juicy Couture and Chanel Chance Fresh. I've thought of trying Viva La Juicy, but I think it will be too sweet for me. Chanel Chance Fresh has been great, I reccomend it. FYI: it smells COMPLETELY different than regular Chanel Chance. It's very confusing because the only difference between the two bottles is Chance Fresh has pink on it, it doesn't even say "Fresh" on it. It's just pink! Both below have been good to me, but it's time for a new perfume. I know perfume scents are very personal, but I am pretty open-minded, or open-nosed I guess I should say.


What do you wear? Is there a scent that you 'swear by' and just absolutely love? I really appreciate your tips so I can get a head start - instead of smelling EVERY scent at Sephora this weekend. My nose and head thank you in advance!

XOXO,

  1. oooh- this is fun. I LOVE perfumes! I used to get a new one whenever I would run out, but the past 2 times, I've gotten the same perfume. It is Light Blue by Dolce & Gabanna. I absolutely love it. I've had a lot of my friends tell me I am not allowed to change perfume because they know what mine smells like. Haha, I don't know if that means I use too much or what... but they say they love it and always know when I'm around cause they smell me! Ha! So I guess I'm stuck with it. :) But I really love it.

  6. Great post! Right now I love Marc Jacobs "Daisy" and DKNY "Be Delicious". I'm thinking about getting Jessica Simpson's "Fancy" but I'm afraid it may be too sweet.

  7. I'm rpetty easy to please, when it comes to scents. And I've been using the same Victoria Secret scent for a few years. McStudly loves it, and I do, too... so I guess we'll golden, eh? I wear 'Pure Sedcution', but I sware I'm not the little hussy that the name would lead you to believe.

    He recently got me a free bottle (due to Nordstrom's pending lawsuit) of that britney Spears fragrance... oy... I can't remember the name of it. But I actually really like it. :-)

    I HATE picking out new scents!!

  10. I swear by Chanel Mademoiselle and Lilly squeeze. The Chanel is a good classic scent think black dress with pearls while squeeze is more fresh and springy think pretty lilly dress.

  13. Light Blue by Dolce & Gabbana. LOVE.IT. I can wear it year round..it's light and wonderful! When I was a waitress I always had people asking me what I was wearing so they could get it.

  14. Well, I'm pretty low-maintenance (read: a cheapskate) when it comes to makeup and perfume and stuff like that...and I don't generally like to smell too strongly, so most of the time I go with a body spray rather than perfume. My favorites right now are Victoria's Secret - Endless Love and Amber Romance. I also have a perfume I bought at Charlotte Russe, and it's called Refuge. Or the brand is Refuge. I dunno...coincidentally, I buy most of my jeans at Charlotte, and they're Refuge brand, too.

    And I've officially talked for WAY too long in a comment about perfume. :-P

  19. Coco Mademoiselle is my absolute fave!! I also like The Body Shop's White Musk line. It's not in your face MUSK, it's really rather soft.

  20. I adore Jo Malone fragrances. The one I wear is Nectarine Blossom and Honey. I get compliments on it all the time!

  21. I don't wear perfume very often, but when I do, it's "Hot" by Ralph Lauren (purple bottle). It always reminds me of summer - not sure why - and I love it.

  22. I have worn Clinique Happy since college and I LOVE the smell of it, but sometimes I think about switching to a different perfume. I really like the Chanel perfumes, but I can't decide which one I like best...

  24. Hi - thanks for visiting my blog today and leaving a comment. It's always nice to see new faces. I loved the story about your dad and his party. How wonderful! Love Gettysburg and hearing all the ghost stories. As for a new scent you might like Ed Hardy by Christian Audigier. When I first the saw the package I thought it may be too rock and roll for me but every time I wear it I get compliments. I am a Juicy girl too so I thought you might enjoy this fragrance. I always ask for samples first before buying and try them out for awhile. It is overwhelming though to shop for new scents. I am thinking Burberry you might like as well. Hope you come by again! :)
