Others I like:

Versace Metal Jeans
the old Prada
AlienAlien by Theirry Mugler
Shi by Alfred Sung

I don't wear perfume. The smell of it mixes with my hair products & I end up smelling rotten!

My perfume is Laura Biagotti's Venezia. It used to be easy to find at department stores. Now it is almost impossible to find anywhere. Even when I travel I always look in duty free with no luck. Now I have to get it on-line or there's a perfume store in a small mall nearby that occaisionally has it.
I'd be lost without it. It took me years to find one that suited me.

My favorite is Body by Victoria.

I love Victoria's Secret Heavenly also. That one is more of a nighttime scent for me.

I actually have a few signature scents. In the winter, I wear Body Shop's vanilla perfume, and at Christmas I combine that with the vanilla spice fragrance, also from the Body Shop (and only available during the holidays). In the summer, I wear Calgon's Hawaiian ginger body spray, with a spritz of the Body Shop's new pineapple-coconut body spray. I don't spend a lot of money on perfumes (and in fact, they're usually given to me as a gift by J's family), but I like smelling pretty; I just have to be careful about what I use because very strong scents give me a migraine or make me sneeze.

You could be right because i have The Bodyshops body butter in mango, coconut and brazil nut and Gil loves the smell.

You men, you've got no nose for perfumes really have you, it all comes down to food!

for me, it's not the strength of the perfume but the scent - certain scents will give me migraines, too. food scents are usually safe, but not always, as citrus can be a problem. there are at least 2 i know of well enough that i know their names - Escape, by Calvin Klein, Sunflowers by Elizabeth Arden - that always give me a headache. they also stink to high heaven, IMO - skunks smell better
i'm sure they must smell differently to the people who like them

I recently bought Bodyshop Satsuma body butter. Men comment on liking the smell, I've noticed. It's sort-of Orange scented. I also bought the Satsuma fragrance oil for my oil burner.

As an aside, the almond lip balm/butter is really nice too.

IA. If you need me, just meow..
My friend got me hooked on Mambo by Liz Caliborne.
I love the smell. Brad isn't much perfume wise, he wouldn't care if I smelled like cat food or grease from work
. He says perfumes don't do "it" for him. (whatever "it" is) LOL! He's such a goofball!

I can't handle heavy scents like Liz Taylor's line or anything heavy with musk.

I used to only wear Ysatis by Givenchy and got a lot of compliments on it, but hubby didn't like it. We spent about an hour at duty free one day just trying to find one we both liked - didn't happen. Then we met a real estate agent when we were selling our house and we both loved the scent she was wearing - it was Paloma Picasso. That is now the only scent I ever wear.
