What is your scent?

[Anonymous]

op here...thanks for the suggestions...and to Miss Rudy McRude above, geesh...really three paragraphs being rude....prioritize dear. I have three small kids and was looking for suggestions because I don't have time to just slowly go through the perfume counter so was looking for some suggestions so I could go to those first.

OP - Sephora has a kit where for $50 you get 10 samples of different perfumes (5-6 uses each) that you can try out and that includes a voucher for a free full size version of one of those scents (usually 1 oz.). I think it's a great deal and I've found several out of the set that I really like (Ralph Lauren Romance, Gucci Envy, and Michael Kors Hollywood), but there is a variety of options and it's nice because you can use them and get an idea of what it will smell on you a couple hours later rather than just in the store (because the scent often changes after youv'e been wearing it a while). They usually come out with a new kit at Christmastime, but I just bought the current version. They don't have them online, but have them in stores.

J'Adore by Dior. Get compliments on it all the time.

Ralph Lauren Romance is really lovely as well. And in college I had a bottle of (I think) Lauren by Ralph Lauren that I also loved. I just Googled and the bottle is different than the one I had then, but I'm 99% sure that's the one I had.

Maybe Jo Malone Grapefruit for Women?

I really love citrus-y smells. For body wash, I use Happy Hippy from Lush - LOVE it, makes it a little easier to wake up in the mornings.

1000 by Jean Patau. Wonderful scent (but admittedly kind of pricey.)

I save this for special occasions, and were Coco normally (which is not floral or crisp though, like 1000)

Bought one of these online last year for my husband (with men's cologne, obviously). The voucher was for a 3.4oz size! Great deal!

Also, many times at a mall store, there are representatives from individual fragrance companies hanging around. So the person asking if they can spray you with whatever fragrance works for the fragrance manufacturer, not the store. So ask the employee who they work for. The salespeople who work for the store will be more versatile.

A suggestion for OP, try Fresh Sugar or Brown Sugar perfumes.

Eu de Bebe Puree

Maybe Marc Jacobs Daisy. And my SIL just LOVES Clinique Happy.

I wear Gucci Guilty and Coco Mademoiselle.

Fresh Sugar Lychee. Fits exactly what you describe.

Clinique Happy sounds like your type too.

Some of the previous suggestions are NOT crisp or fruity at all. Lauren? Really?

Love's Baby Soft has cult following for a good reason-it is one the least offensive scents on the market. It basically smells like baby powder, but better. It's almost impossible to use too much. Don't let the low price throw you off-this has been my go-to day fragrance for years.

NP here. Would the bored negative poster move on to another board already. We really do not like you. You are in fact pointless.

Exactly! J'Adore's crisp?

Anyway, whatever you end up buying, please,please,please, don't overdo it! We have a woman in our building that wears so much perfume her 'scent' lingers in the elevator for fifteen minutes after she's gone. I can't imagine what it's like sitting next to her in the office.

She's just bitter because she smells like placenta.

NP here. Call me bitter, but this post belongs to the Beauty and Fitness Forum.

In case you're wondering, I don't smell like placenta.
