If QVC wants to sell fragrance they should send samples and for skin care also.

I love fragrance . Does it have to be QVC? My favoirte way to test fragrance is by samples . There are sites like Luckyscents , where you can purchase samples for $3-4 . You can search scents by notes you like or differnt types like floral, oriental etc. I use only cruelty free brands now and PInrose and Sweet Anthems and Inkling  also sell sample scents very reasonable too . My new fav is Pinrose Tambourine Dreamer - a mix of Lily of the Valley, Orange Blossom , Peony and Ylang Ylang . Good luck in your search . A new scent can really lift your spirits !!.

Thanks for the tip on Luckyscents.  I was not aware of it.

try Fragrantica dot com.   you can search the fragrances you know you like there are sugesstions for fragrances others like as well.

i have to try out and  wear a fragrance before i buy. i want something to last but not be too heavy. sometimes scent changes on the skin too.   i had a friend who wore L'eau d'Issey and she always smelled amazing.   i  spritzed some on in Ulta one day. ugh could not wash it off quick enough. smelled like Lestoil on me

It is light and I have found that it lasts a lot longer than the alcohol based scents.  Try Amazon.com for best prices.  Good Luck.

NEST Fragrances Midnight Fleur Soleil from QVC. It is light and a great daytime spring/summer scent.  It last all day!  I love it!

If you are thinking of buying Nest fragrances from QVC, including the upcoming TSV, try them out first at a bricks and mortar Sephora store where they carry that brand so you can decide if you like them or not before purchasing them.

I have found that the Jo Malone website makes it a little easier to select a fragrance.  At least they break it down by categories:  FLORAL, FRUITY, WOODSY, etc.  Blackberry & Bay is a lovely scent not heavy but certainly not light and a new favorite scent for me.  The citrus scents are very nice but light.  You can't go wrong with Grapefruit (does not smell like a grapefruit) and her first scent.  Lime, Mandarin, Basil is also light and pretty.  Pomegranate & Noir is a favorite of mine.  When you make a purchase you receive 2 samples of your choice.  Nordstrom will give you samples and I understand Sephora now carries the line.

Don't try to purchase any fragrance online unless you've already tested it in person and know it will work for you.  It just doesn't work.

I wouldn't buy from TV altho, I did buy Amazing Grace with good luck, but have bought others that were awful and just let them evaporize. However, I do buy samples from ebay with really good luck. I'd rather spend just a few $$ for a small, useable amount, than a bunch of $$ for a huge amount.
