I wouldn't mind to smell like machine oil occasionally. The scent is nice on my Dad when he worked on cars a bunch. :)

Boucheron is my signature scent I wear every day. Love it love it love it!
Here's what I find about compromise--
don't do it if it hurts inside,
'cause either way you're screwed,
eventually you'll find
you may as well feel good;
you may as well have some pride

Joy is also my favorite. Has been for 50 years. The only time I didn't wear it was when I couldn't afford it. Once in a while I switch off to opium when I am in the mood for something a little (very) spicy.

try ebay.  they have a selection of the most expensive perfumes at very affordable prices

Hmmm...I have a few favorites, and I wear them depending on my mood.

Of course I am temperamental.  I am not ecstatic 24/7, but let me explain:

Herve Leger: I wear it when I feel competitive, if you smell that perfume on me, you'd better watch out, for Tink is coming"  ;D

Paloma Picasso: For those endless passionate nights!  >:D

Prada Infusion D'Iris: I wear it when I feel cute and cuddly  ;D

Burberry The Beat: I wear it when the days are cold and rather rainy.

So there bruja!  ;D ;)

Thanks for the tip, Natasha. It was worth checking out. However, the listings for Joy were mostly for toilette water or old, opened bottles of perfume from 'my aunt's house.' I will keep an eye on it, though. I hate how many listings say 'perfume' in the listing heading and then when I read the fine print I find 'edt' or 'eau de toilette'.

Thanks for this thread. I think I found a few new fragrances to try.

Well if you get a good chart of the notes (as each particular scent is called) and look for perfumes you like, then kind of look around it and find others in a similar vein.

Just like the commercial said, Eternity by Kalvin Klein ;D

I've loved it for more than 20 years, get only small bottles every once in a while. The generic stuff never comes close.

When he was ready he showed it to his friends and they said he had created a great statue. And the sculptor said he hadn't created anything, the statue was always there, he just cleared away the small peices." Rambo III

I felt carrying a porshe in my purse kinda got tiresome after the first minute.
The smell of wet earth after rain, tried it, but man did it mess up my purse
(more than usual...
Smell of fire, carried some burned piece of wood in my purse (quite a purse)
but set off the smoke alarm at bloomingsdale and ruined $2M of designer
clothes, hey, guess they won't take back that dress now...

Well if that's what your going for Keira, try bacon and beer.  Can't miss with most guys.

Ouch... that hurt... I guess maybe I still have a lot of male left in me :(

Getting made fun of is .... no fun. :(

I personally am an Armani guy for personal care and some fashion items.  I purchase the whole Code line from lotion to body(shower) gel.   Only 2 local stores carry it, so I tend to buy it in bulk because they sell out a bit.  I had to travel about 75 miles once just to get more body wash.

I don't remember what I bought my girlfriend and since I am half the world away and I can't go look.  Ugh, I feel so lame right now because I can't think of the designer either...

One way or round trip?  And I feel put out if I have to walk more than 5 blocks to get anything.

That was one way.  Luckly I was passing through, but I stopped at every retail store until I found it.  Really added a lot of travel time, but I am pretty insistant on getting what I want and will not settle for something else.  I could of hugged the lady behind the counter by the time I got to that store that had it.  Apperently they just got it in the night before.  I will never forget that trip either because I was trying to get to my mothers house for a christmas meal (a few days before christmas) and I left before sunlight and still barely made it in time for the meal.

Chanel Coco Mademoiselle (seems to last the longest and smells great on me, but also subtle and not over powering) I have one bottle
Chanel Chance (it's sexy, bold, and nice for going out to a club) I wish I had a small bottle of this
Givenchy ange ou demon (I love it, doesn't last as long it seems, but longer than cheaper stuff -- very nice) I really wish I had a bottle

Those are my fav perfumes at the moment... it kind of helps to work at a drug store so I can try stuff out. Sadly, our drug store no longer carries Chanel or Givenchy (I believe the chain does, just not our actual store, since it's small and a lot of the cosmetics/perfumes don't sell as well). Sadly, 'cause it's a smaller store as much as I'd love to work on cosmetics, they are never looking for people. Although, I cover breaks there, know most of the product pretty well know, and can run most of the department stuff. Through testers I've found different brands that I like and seem to work for me. I'm pretty good at helping people figure out their skin care and make up needs -- not perfect, but I've learned a lot and getting decent.
