I'm a big olfactory person; I get a lot of enjoyment out of scent (pray you never see me at a bath and body works semi-annual sale!) What's your favorite scent to wear? Shower gel, cologne, perfume, shampoo? I'm hooked on BBW green clover & aloe shower gel, sometimes I use the matching body spray. Also currently using BBW black raspberry & vanilla shampoo/conditioner, and occasionally I wear white jasmine & mint cologne (Jo Malone). I used to love the smell of Finesse shampoo, but they keep changing the formula  What (scent!) are you wearing today? |

I remember flowering herbs! I went for fresh lilac back then, though--another discontinued classic. *tries not to think about how old the remaining FL body spray in her cabinet must be*
xmascookie: did you ever try the dessert line BBW had maybe 5-6 years ago? They had a creme brulee line that was so realistic I spent most of the day trying to resist the urge to lick my arm!

On the rare occasions that I actually get dressed and put on perfume, I wear Carolina Herrera.
Everyday I use japanese cherry blossom or secret wonderland spray.
My home is usually some version of apples and cinnamon or fresh linen...

I love the smell of the ocean.
for perfumes, I'm pretty sensitive to most of it. I use BBW cucumber melon spritz most days, or if I can find a "Sunflowers" spritz, I like that too. but only a spritz or 2, or I'll be sneezing all day.

LOL! Cucumber perfume/spray is fine (I've smelled various ones before), but I can't stand the ones that smell like definitive fruits. In high school Bath & Body Works scented lotions became the thing to buy. Every other girl had peach lotion..... SPEW!!!!  |

the pear wasn't bad in small doses, don't think I ever smelled peach. my school had a lot of that vanilla sugar one that smelled like a bakery.  another one I used to use was the Body Shop's "satsuma" shower gel, it was orangy. not like 'peel an orange' strong, but a decent hint of it anyway. I'd get a faint scent of it through the day if I didn't use another scent spray. |

Blue Grass by Elizabeth Arden
Many years ago I went to a perfume counter to find something else. I tried everything, and when I left I didn't smell good, just smelled.
I went back to Blue Grass.

My shower gel is a 'seafoam' type scent - very subtle. On the rare occasions that I wear scent during the day, it's very mild - usually something light like Vanilla Fields or Adidas Pure Lightness.

I love anything Vanilla (mainly as candles for my house) or Coconut (I love the The Body Shop's Coconut Body Butter). From BBW I used to like the Cucumber Melon, but I think it's been discontinued.  When I'm going fancy or for special occasions I'll wear one of the following: Lola by Marc Jacobs Angel by Thierry Mugler Be Delicious by DKNY Parisienne by Yves Saint Laurent But in general I don't put on a lot of perfumes or scented stuff. The only exception is my obsession with Herbal Essences Hello Hydration. It makes my hair smell oh so yummy  |

CL or Swamp - it depends on the day :-) LOL! Exalt for that! I like food smells, cinnamon, vanilla, etc. Most things that say they smell like chocolate don't.  I also am one that can't handle much of any scent. If you layered your scents (body wash, lotion, spray) I'm gonna choke on it. Florals are particularly hard on me. The sweeter it is, the worse it bugs my sinuses. |

Too bad they can't come up with a perfume that smells like freshly baked chocolate chip cookies. Talk about irresistable!
