I second this. I used it in HS and then stopped using it. Then, on a whim, I picked some up at CVS a few months ago. I've received many compliments on good it smells. And it's not overwhelming. |
Big fan of dolce & gabanna light blue. I hate most perfumes but I heart this one! |
Eau de Sweat |
I love love love Jo Malone Grapefruit for Women. It's one of my go-to perfumes and I ALWAYS have it on hand. It fits the description of what you're looking for. |
What can you really expect from someone who says Nordies? |
I haven't used Love's in years, but I have used some variation of a Vanilla scent since HS. I was upset when Vicki's discontinued the Vanilla Lace scent for a while - then they brought it back, I guess due to customer comments. There was a Love's scent that came in a purple bottle - anyone remember that one? I liked it. |
Skinfood's Italian lemon. Crisp not sweet and I can even wear it to work---I'm an RN and too much perfume makes patients ill. |
Original Love's scent poster here and sometimes you can find a variety of the old timers on line-there's a lemon one, a rain scent and I'm not sure what the purple one is but I think I've seen it online. I like it because you can even wear it around babies (in small doses). |
baby powder smell does not equal crisp or fruity. just sayin. |
I know, it's not for everybody. I consider it a kind of 'old money' scent. Take that however you wish. |
"Old money?" Seriously? This is a drugstore perfume for tweens. |
I agree with PP. Chanel no. 19 or 5 -- that's old money. |
.. it's old alright, it reminds me of my husband's grandmother. |
I've been a fan of the Clinique perfumes for years (esp Happy) and I get lots of complements when I wear it. |
Elie Saab is light and jasmine-y and just wonderful! It's a little $$ though. |
