I regularly apply lavender essential oil to my neck and wrists multiple times a day. One of my favorite scents easily. I also use a lot of eucalyptus-spearmint scented lotion, and I'll usually sniff my hands after I apply it to myself.

Some smells I like. Many of them wearable:
yellow champa;
myrrh;
patchouli;
neroli;
grapefruit+basil+peppermint (try it if you're not too sensitive!);
Viccolo Fiori perfume by Etro;
some Diesel stuff;
I also like the smell of lily of the valley.

I love the smell of hyacinth :heart:
I also like the smell of wet tree trunks, especially if there's moss involved. Oak trees, pines, grass. If there's a perfume of that kind, I'll give it a try.

For everyday I use Pacifica Tahitian Gardenia or Indian Coconut Nectar.
For special occasions I have a mini trio of the three perfumes in the Clinique Happy series;
Happy, Happy Heart and Happy in Bloom.
On the "too expensive to be practical list" I do have a few favorites from Marc Jacobs, Prada and Chanel.

Like the kylie Minogue perfume darling.
Had a ted baker for women body mist once which I liked too.

For me it's prada candy.

I've kept the bottles as a collection but I like Anna sui perfumes too, smell divine but dont last as long. Moderate but prada nearly all day.

I like perfumes of all sorts. My favorites are mostly florals, though I do have a couple that smells like cakes and candies. :) Right now I'm using Lancome Tresor Midnight Rose. It's very strong but also very pleasant. I change my perfumes every season and for different activities. Like I have one I spray on myself before playing video games. :D

I mostly spray them on my clothes, though. I prefer my body to be scent-free and clean. Thank goodness I don't need to use lotion or deodorant.

Scents give me 3-4 day migraines with nausea, and kaleidoscope eyes.

No thanks.

Just be clean or smell like an old leather jacket, and I'm good.

Aw that's too bad. Well many public places here are scent free so I don't use perfume when I go to there. I do use them freely at home.

I'm a sensory seeker (it's a valid type of autistic behavior, too). :) I just enjoy sniffing stuff. All my clothes and underwear are scented by either essential oils or herbs, sometime soap bars people gifted me. Years ago I wanted to use up my perfume stash and switch to essential oils. I even got an aromatherapy certificate. But I kept getting perfumes for birthday or Christmas. I just give up now. :lol:

My mom will get migraines if I wear them around her. Seeing as we have lived together the vast majority of my life, and not wanting to cause her harm, I have avoided them for the most part.

I have been gifted perfumes from friends. I do like them. My favorite I've ever been given was Victoria's Secret Love Spell. Nowadays, I do get it in lotion form and wear it at work, it's worn off before I come home with my mom.

I’ve had a thing for perfume for as long as I can remember. Have a bit of a collection. Whenever I travel overseas, I like to try & find new perfume at the Airports. Current favourite are Miss Dior & Victoria Secret Bombshell. Still spray a little “Alien” on at bedtime. :lol: Nearly forgot, Catherine Herrera Good Girl(the stilleto) is soo beautiful a fragrance! Get comments whenever I wear it. It’s interesting how much tastes can change for fragrance as the years go by.

Something sweet but also mixed with something low toned so it won't be so sharp.

Thus something sweet like some fruits or flowers but it had to be 'warm' and added with something that can tone it down like vanilla, nectars or certain oils.


Too bad my sense of smell isn't so good.
It's not often I'd engage with scents.

Most of the time, I complain about not being able to breathe through a nose that's almost always constantly clogged or swollen for seemingly no reason.

"Samsara" by Guerlain :heart:
I love main accords in it:
powdery, woody, vanilla, musk and warm spicy. It is mysterious, long lasting and it even smells better and better as the day goes by and untill eventually it fades away.

Edna, have you got checked for allergies? Your nose shouldn't be stuffed for no reason. Pollen is the most likely cause, or, mold or pollution. If you can find the cause it can be easily treatable.
