Re: What is your favorite summer scent?

I like Dolce and Gabana "Light Blue."  Pure Grace by philosophy is nice for summer too.

Re: What is your favorite summer scent?

Ah yes, Rive Gauche by Yves St. Laurent. Wore this back in the 70's - is it still out there? Also wore L'air du Temps and later on O de Lancome in the summer(citrus scent) - As a teen, Muguet du Bois by Coty, and in my thirties and forties, Anais, Anais by Cacherel. I have been wearing the Graces for several years now so do not shop much for fragrance. And one more, a little strong nowadays for me but Clinique Aromativs Elixir....... all bring back memories, don't they?

It's one of my favorites but actually for year round.  Almond Coconut by Laura Mercier.  I receive many compliments when I wear it which makes a person feel good.  Cat Very Happy

Re: What is your favorite summer scent?

In the summer I like fresh, green scents. Nothing too floral or heavy or cloying.

 

 

Bvlgari Green Tea, my new love

 

Colonia Natural by Lancry

Very green without citrus, out of the shower fresh, cheap, huge bottle

 

 

 

 

Bien-être, the green cap, very fresh, green, no sweetness, more aromatic, dry.

A classic, childhood memories

 

LUSH, Dear John

Not green but fresh with just a touch of spice. I get compliments on this one all the time.

 

Sisley Eau de Campagne

Green green green, my husband likes it too.

 

Chanel Cristalle Eau Verte, green, dry, office appropriate,.

 

I love all the scents above but too much of anything good can be bad, people who overspray themselves kill the appeal of the fragrance.

 

Contrary to what perfume sellers on TV tell us, a fragrance is NOT SUPPOSED TO announce our arrival and linger after we leave. That's just bad and tacky advice.IMO

In the warmer months I love Eliz Arden Green Tea

 Light Blue from D and G is a year round fave, and Rive Gauche certainly brings back lots of memories.

Mosquitos are attracted to carbon dioxide - I think you can rest assured no one is making a CO2 perfume.


Mosquitoes are also attracted to perfumes.....can't say which ones, but they are @151949.

Estee Lauder Pleasures Intense. Just a tiny mist of it.


@Jacie ......  I love Tova Signature.  That is the scent I gravitate towards most often.   Got another compliment on it just this past Friday.
