Sex sweat. Not available in stores.

Habanita is my "signature scent". It's amazing but quite heavy:

Evening after a hard rain. A lot less dust for one, but there's something else.

I like this the best... but haven't tried the new formulation, I don't know if I will

I use this occasionally and it's good to a bit too strong

Scents tend to give me headaches so no perfume for me.

"The top note is delicate and softly fresh (clementine, almond blossom and cyclamen). The heart reveals jasmine, peony and amaryllis. The drydown is warm, opulent, and balsamic with amber, musk and sweet powdery vanilla. The fragrance was created by Jacques Cavallier."
It smells like a French girl at the cinema supposedly. (Actually it kind of does). I wear it often.
**edit: I found this picture for it.
I want to see a picture representation of every perfume before I purchase from now on.

I love the smell of fresh goat milk in the morning.

I'm constantly looking to align the real with the ideal.I've been more oriented toward being overly idealistic by expecting the real to match the ideal. My thinking side is dominent. The result is that sometimes I can be overly impersonal or self-centered in my approach, not being understanding of others in the process and simply thinking "you should do this" or "everyone should follor this rule"..."regardless of how they feel or where they're coming from"which just isn't a good attitude to have. It is a way, though, to give oneself an artificial sense of self-justification. LSE

Lucky You. http://www.fragrantica.com/perfume/L...-You-8971.html I've occasionally switched to other things, but I always end up going back to this because it suits me so well. I get a lot of compliments on it, too. This site is fun!
I find it interesting how the same perfume smells different on different people.
My favorite scents in general (as opposed to in perfume) are probably sandalwood and jasmine.

I don't wear perfume, but I love the scent of bookstores, chococolate and cinnamon, tobacco and an evening in summer.
Like others here I'm allergic to most perfumes and the smell of them generally give me headaches (or asthma fits - take your pick). However, the least offensive ones for me are the ones that smell like a very light soap, or lightly scented laundry detergent (heck, I even have to watch out for laundry detergents setting me off).
Essential oils aren't too bad, though, as long as they're very light florals.
You seek a great fortune, you three who are now in chains. You will find a fortune, though it will not be the one you seek.
But first you must travel a long and difficult road, a road fraught with peril.
You shall see things, wonderful to tell. You shall see a... cow... on the roof of a cotton house. And, oh, so many startlements.
I cannot tell you how long this road shall be, but fear not the ob-stacles in your path, for fate has vouchsafed your reward.
Though the road may wind, yea, your hearts grow weary, still shall ye follow them, even unto your salvation.

My mom collects perfumes, so I grew up spritzing myself constantly with what i found to be the most delicious of all scents. I love so many of them.
Last year, I was in this little underground shop in Kuwait, where I picked up a 2 dollar oil-based nutty/fruity perfume that I just utterly love. Even hubby loves it. I can't believe I bought only one. I asked my mother to pick me up as many when shes down there; she only found 2 :_;
Winter scent is Opium
http://www.fragrantica.com/perfume/Y.../Opium-93.html
and Gucci eau de parfum (It's discontinued but I still find it)

also love http://www.fragrantica.com/perfume/S...ura-11258.html cause it feels like an enhanced version of the above, but unfortunately what makes it initially "better" to me is amber - which for some reason in perfume tends to get me headachy & sneezey after a while...
(it's also safe to say that anything that looks yellow in a bottle will be "too warm" for me... I tend to go for not chokingly sweet pink, some more pronounced whites and less grassy smelling greens.)
I totally wore this for a while!
I don't wear perfume that much anymore, but when I do it's usually Red Jeans - Versace. It's been my go-to since my parents got it for me one Christmas when I was 13. It smells like raspberries and jasmine and I don't know what else, but it suits my skin really nicely. It smells a bit strong imo though.

When I want to perfume, but something lighter, I go with Demeter fragrances. They have some pretty friggin weird scents, but some really subtle nice ones too. My favourites are Earl Grey, Pumpkin Pie (during the fall), Green Tea, and Gin & Tonic.

Awesome thread!
This is what I wear daily; it doesn't last long and it's kinda cheap, but it smells delicious and the ladies love it:

This is what I bust out for special occasions; it's potent, complex, unique, and unmistakable:

I am a perfume junkie... I have at least 10 bottles, maybe 15... and about 40 decants (samples going from 5 to 20 ml).
I like pretty much confidential products like Serge Lutens, l'Artisan Parfumeur, Guerlain or Hermès Exclusives... Creed, Penhaligon's... but also classic French parfumerie.
My last crushes:
Hypnotic poison DIOR EDP
http://www.fragrantica.com/perfume/D...fum-23098.html
L'Instant GUERLAIN EDP
http://www.fragrantica.com/perfume/G...erlain-51.html
For Her NARCISO RODRIGUEZ EDT
http://www.fragrantica.com/perfume/N...r-Her-209.html
I like it to be sensual, suggestive and a bit animalistic.
