What's Your Favorite Kind Of Parfume?, When you want to smell your best :) Options

What's your favorite kind of parfume do you use?

Here's some on my closet:

Bvlgari - Extreme (chic magnet)
Bvlgari - Notte (special occasions)
Hugo Boss - Dark Blue (for business)
Hugo Boss - Baldessarini (for business)
Kenzo - L'eau Par (evening use)
Giorgio Armani - Acqua Di Gio (chic magnet)
Aigner - Dark Blue (for business)
Channel - Platinum Egoiste (special occasions)
Davidoff - Cool Water (my long time fave)

Why Kinjo, you dog! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ohyeah.gif)

Currently in my bedroom are:

Issey Miyake - Evening wear, or when I know I'm going to have hot kinky sex.

Drakkar Noir - Ditto

Obsession - Anytime wear, clean, masculine scent.

Cool Water - Ditto

Egyptian Musk - A Body Oil, I wear it anytime really, but it is most excellent for first encounters.

I also have Bob Mackey in the form of a Body Oil. It's "okay". Women like it, but it's not really my style. It's important that I like the smell too, lol! I suppose I got it for "gettting it" sake, lol!

On my Wish List:

Fahrenheit

Acqua Di Gio

Chrome

Curve (I know, I know. But it's just the most simple, fresh smelling scent, lol! I don't care if the market's been saturated, lol!)

-F.F.

Edit: I also want some more Eternity. Almost a sweet smelling, yet masculine scent. VERY nice anytime wear.

*shrugs* I'm more of a floral kind of person, though I do like thicker scents.

So,

Lilac Eau De Toilet (in english that doesn't really have an appealing name by any means.)
Desire De Nature (This one is great, it's very earthy and fresh)
Passionately (This one is more thicker, like vanilla. My husband loves this one (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif))

I mostly have body sprays (they're nice and light).

*shrugs*

hey fr. fame, I like musks and run a search on that egyptian musk you mentioned and got about 250.000 results! care to pin point which product that you mean exactly? For a sweet smell, try Channel's Platinum Egoiste... it's so sweet I felt like licking myself! no wonder it's called platinum egoiste (IMG:style_emoticons/default/13.gif) My Kenzo - L'eau Par (water by?) also smells heavenly mesmerizing, go try it at your dept. store and see if you like it.

angalor, try Bvlgari "envy me". I just bought my lil' sis a bottle of those and she loves it. Also you may like Thierry Mugler - Angel Woman for a strong and very distinct scent. It seems to smell differently on different person.

Talking about scents, i read that woman loves vanilla scent? what do you think and which perfume has a lot of vanilla in it?

For a sweet smell, try Channel's Platinum Egoiste... it's so sweet I felt like licking myself! no wonder it's called platinum egoiste (IMG:style_emoticons/default/13.gif)

LOL!!!!! Thanks for uplifting my morning with that one bro, lol!!! On the real tip though, I know what you mean, Egytian Musk has the same effect, like sweet liquid. So does Issey. Man, you know what? I LOVE scents, not just for women, but for ME, lol! They repesent my moods, and my archtypal characters, and certain one's are evoked with certain scents. I LOVE scents, lol!

AND, I'll make sure to try out Platinum Egoiste and L'eau Par (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

As for Egyptian Musk, there really isn't any set product that I'm aware of, because the people I've always bought from mix thier own Oil's. I used to get my Body Oil's from a place here called Habeeb's Body Oil's, but the owner died and the store closed. Now, the only place to get Oil's are Arabian owned corner stores , but the quality varies and you really have to be lucky with them (I know, Habeeb is a Muslim name, but he was African American, and a great guy I might add). Another place that I will use in the future, and that I feel confidant in, is the local Muslim Mosque. (A world of difference in quality I hear, and see, come to think about it. Ironic that the store's oil sucks, but the Mosque's don't. Go Fig.)

So, I guess I would say to go see your local Mosque friend (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Other than that, find another local person who deals with Body Oil's, and smell it BEFORE you buy it. Oil's are of the type that if they are not mixed right, it will NOT be what you wanted to buy. The only way to check the quality of an Oil is to smell it before you buy it. That way, you know if the person selling it is full of Cow Dung or not, lol! Oh, one more thing. E-Musk has an unmistakeably wonderful scent. If you don't feel like kissing or hugging yourself when you smell it, then it's not Egyptian Musk. Trust me, with Oil's, you have to know this, lol! Okay, enough with the warnings, lol!

-F.F.

Talking about scents, i read that woman loves vanilla scent? what do you think and which perfume has a lot of vanilla in it?

Well, to tell you the truth, I love vanilla. It's a nice thick but yet full scent that seems very seductive. (besides, when I wear it my husband can't keep his hands off of me.) I'd say go with something like this. Cocoon
They make wonderful perfumes! This one has very thick top/middle/and bottom notes which gives off that full senual smell all the time.
Another one YRIA
I've smelled this one..WOW! They work great, when you first put on the parfume, the top not gives off that initial smell, then after that's gone it begins to give off the middle note with a mixture of the last, and finally by evening the last note is all that's left which is great for getting close and personal at the end of the day.

Chanel - Egoiste.

It just cant fail.

To not fail with me (for women in other words)
Anything vanilla.

Extraordinary by Avon
Ambergris (synthetic) oil
Ylang Ylang essential oil
Coconut scented oil
Carnation scented oil

I wear any of these favorites day or evening ...and I always go light on application of scents. If the mood hits me, I may wear a Frankincense & Myrrh combination, High John the Conqueror, or Grapefruit essential oil.

On days when I can be bothered: Issey Miyake.

On most days: A stale combination of tobacco and frankincense!

It's sandalwood oil for me most days when I feel like wearing perfume.

I also like the stuff Global Scent Company makes. They use straight oils, no synthetic fixatives or additives, so it's perfume I can wear without having an allergic reaction to it. In addition the straight oils won't break down in the summer desert heat and smell like Raid ten minutes later like their commercial/synthetic counterparts.

I like their "Rubies" and "Nightspell" ones, although I also like their "Leo" as well as Midnight Starr's "Scorpio" and "Water." Their "Rain" is really good too.

As with all essental oils, a little goes a LONG way. A half ounce vial of something can quite literally last me years if I keep it away from heat and light.

I haven't actually stocked up on heaps of different types of perfume.

...I only have 'Babydoll' and 'Japanese Musk'...

But what I do love is subtle fruity scents like instead of perfume.

I love passion fruit and grape body butter....

Actually subtle scents in general are nice.

I have this honey one and everyone's like 'what smells so nice' and I'm like 'This very expensive body butter' and then blab on about the benefits...

Also natural body spritz are nice (Not body sprays.)...those refreshing ones that usually come in citrus flavours.

I'm not a big fan of strong perfume smells. After awhile they all smell the same to me.

Edit:
And nice smelling soap is good too. =]
Fruity soap.

Anything vanilla.

I truly enjoy the scent of Sugar Wafer on a woman. Anything vanilla. It´s intoxicating! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/33.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/partytime.gif)

For myself, I also have a Vanilla-type cologne. Reserved for evenings, Pi (Orange Label), by Givenchy.
For "Steppin out," Bellagio by Michaelangelo
and for my general all-time scent, Hugo by Hugo Boss

Mmmmm....vanilla....... *dreams*

Let's see...my favorite perfume would have to be a wonderful combination of cigarettes, weed, and alcohol.
Not a fan of perfume. So I just burn things, and maybe the smells get stuck on me.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/ac41.gif)


Myself:

Lagerfeld
Tommy Hilfiger
Hugo Boss

I personally don't wear cologne except on special occasions, but when I do, I spritz it on my shirt and put a coat over it so it's more subtle and lasts longer. If I want to smell purtyer, then I just take off my coat.

I also use a shampoo with a cranberry scent to it. *shrug*

Chanel Allure Sport... honestly, no other cologne has ever gotten so many compliments. Including women who swear they have to buy it for their husbands! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

I used to wear Egoiste myself; still put it on once in a while.

And I have to say, I personally like the smell of Armani Mania on my s.o..

For me, it's a total contradiction, but I wear Angel by Thierry Mugler. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/angel.gif)

Greetings:

I have heard of some of your scents. My personal favorite, that stays nice through all the scent notes is the unisex scent known as INIS .. it is from Ireland. Kind of reminds me of the sea with heather and moss.

Ralph Lauren's Blue wasn't too bad either.

Otherwise I like body oils. Ylang Ylang and Carnation come to mind there.

I also like the for Psychic Enhancement paste like perfume that they sell at Erzullies.com A Voudon shop and online from Louisianna.


Love & Light,
