Scents and Sense......

jlkz — Sun, 31 Dec 2017 23:41:40 GMT

Decided to finally say goodbye to the last spritz of one of my favorite perfumes, Champagne.

Just as a poster has said, it is like saying goodbye to a friend....the memory stays. I know I can find Ivresse but I would rather look forward to finding another future friend !

Got one last very special " friend ", Theorema, but that is for very special occasions.

Happy, healthy New Year to the QVC posters....a wealth of information on any topic !

@jlkz There are two scents I always receive compliments on. I usually wear this one in the fall/winter months -- Jo Malone's Pomengranate Noir and in the spring/summer I wear Laura Mercier's Coconut Almond and actually the body butter lasts longer. Happy New Year.

I also save my Theorema for special occasions. I wish they'd bring this back, it is amazing and I have found nothing like it.

I've worn "Rapture" by Victoria's Secret as my fall/winter/special occasion scent for years and was very disappointed to learn that it's been discontinued. I still have a full, large bottle that I'm about to open, but I'm out of shower gel and lotion. There's a few pieces available on Amazon and Ebay, but since they're hard to find, the price is at least double what the retail price was.

Fracas is my scent, have been wearing it for many years, never get tired of it.

Oh, @Lindsays Grandma, you and actress Kate Beckinsale and Sofia Coppola! I always think of "Fracas" as such a sophisticated perfume. It seems to me that Jackie Onassis wore it as well, among others. I know she wore "Vent Vert" for sure...

It's fun to see what various celebs like. Since perusing the list, I have a newfound respect for Julia Roberts, since she wears "L'heure Bleue" by Guerlain! And adorable Nicole Richie is a long-time loyalist of Houbigant's "Quelques Fleurs", my mother's girlhood scent:
