Smells.
What is your favorite smell or perfume?
If you do wear a scent, do you wear it for yourself or for other people? Although it won't damage your health, has someone's perfume spoilt your enjoment of a meal? Does advertising affect your decision about what you will perfume yourself with, as the heady scents of the 80's like Giorgio and Poison aren't as popular as they were. I wear Lagerfeld when I'm going out, it's deep and not very commonly available, so very unlike me. When I want to smell fresh and clean I love Happy by Clinique, because it's just so fresh and citrusy. My favorite smell on a woman though is Youth Dew by Estee Lauder, because it reminds me of my Mum kissing me goodnight if my parents were going out when I was little. |

I wear Eternity perfume myself
I adored Lynx Tempest ..... I don't think they sell it anymore :(....... it used to make me go weak at the knees if any man was wearing it in the same room as me :) oohhhhh!!! |
Re: Smells.
I've got a few favourites - depnds on my mood, the time of day or evening and where I'm going.
For daytime I like something light and fluffy and floral. For evenings I prefer something a little more interesting. My daughter has introduced me to "Exclamation!" and I rather like it. I definitely wear a scent for myself. I'm the one closest to the smell so I want it to be something I like. Mind you, it's nice if whoever I'm with likes it too and if I had one that Busman found revolting then I'd probably abandon it. Oh yes someone else's perfume can certainly spoil my enjoyment of a meal. If it's too strong, overpowering or sickly I feel like I'm eating it! Part of the enjoyment of food is the smell as well as the taste. Some scents remind me of people too - my Gran always used "4711". "Je Reviens" reminds me of my mother. |

Re: Smells.
If I smell someone wearing Antaeus by Chanel it really affects me. I just want to smell or even hug that person and breath it in.
I did consider buying it myself, but it's probably wrong trying to lick yourself. |
Re: Smells.
One perfume I really don't like is Samsara (my apologies to anyone who wears it) I think it has a real earthy smell. I find myself checking the room for someone smoking dope before I realise it's THAT perfume!

Does anybody remember a range of talc/body lotion/bubble bath absolutely ages ago which came in sort of orange coloured, plastic containers with brown plastic, tortoiseshell effect tops?
I've done a quick sketch but the top doesn't look to be in proportion. The oval above is a cross section. The orange range was brought out first and then they brought out a lemony one but I don't think that caught on. I can't for the life of me remember what it was called but I did like it way back then. |
Re: Smells.
I believe that perfume or aftershave should fit the wearer like a good pair of shoes, snug and comfy and never tiresome. I like to wear Cerruti 1881 Aftershave or Paco Rabanne; I’m not a lover of much else. I also like to use Lynx Africa and Touch. I wear it for the simple purpose of Not Smelling unattractive when in company.
I love the tones of Youth Jew on a woman, but much prefer the seductiveness of Yves Saint Laurent - Rive Gauche. There are not many perfumes that I dislike other than 4711. For a blast from the past, I loved Old Spice and still like its lingering tones. For the girls it was Charlie “The Original Stuff” as a teenager it use to pump the pheromones whenever it hit me…….. Just to lower the tone, you can't beat the smell of a good Ale...................:) |
Re: Smells.

Big downfall of mine is I can't help accosting nice smelling men!!! It can get quite embarressing when I suddenly find my nose stuck in their neck!! :o |
