My sister came to the hospital wearing 'Amazing Grace' by philosopy and now I am addicted to it! I wear it all the time. It smells so clean ~ I just love it. Is there any perfumes or cologne that you just can't go without? This is more expensive than I usually buy ~ I usually get the $2.99 bottles of Dark Vanilla when they are out at Christmas :laughing:

For men's cologne ~ I love Lagerfield (OHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!) and Obsession! I know they are oldies ~ but they still are the best as far as I am concerned!!
 
Ping: don't you just love that stuff. I have become a huge fan of all Philosophy products. Go to QVC and ever once in a while you can get a bargain. There products just basically never go on sale. I checked out some of the new scents when I was at our Sephora store this weekend and ahhhhhhhh, I would take ten baths a day just to chill out in a tub full of that stuff.
 
I bought the set from QVC! It had the perfume, Shampoo/Body Wash, and lotion! I love this stuff! I went to eBay and bought the roll on perfume! They have some really good deals on there! You need to check it out. That is where I am buying my refills out ~ I can get it a lot cheaper through ebay than through QVC. I just love it when I catch a whiff of it...it just smells so good.

Now I have to say that I hate the new stuff ~ 'Falling in love' ~ my sister bought it and to me it smells like lemonade and cotton candy mixed up. Just not my thing!
 
:wave: I had always wanted to try Amazing Grace, so I bought the 8 pc. today special on QVC back in Oct.
Well as soon as I received it I BECAME TOTALLY ADDICTED!! I bought another kit they had with the body butter
in Nov., I couldn't help myself.... It's my #1 favorite scent now.

I did smell the Falling in Love at my friends house, because she told me about it and I didn't like it, a little too sweet.

:sunny:
 
I like honey suckle from bath and body works and plumeria by bath and body works.

I still love ivory soap, to bad thats not a perfume/lotion. I would buy it. :crazytongue: Or eat it. jk
 
On me, all the Philosophy products smell like bug spray. Its my skin...I do better with strong oriental/woody fragrances like Attar, Sandalwood...and, of course, Pine Tar Soap :laughing:
 
I really like Origins Ginger and I have some nice Escada in a tall bottle. Some of the cheap colognes are nice but they seem to lose potency sooner.
 
:wave: Would YOU believe Im still a honeysuckle & ROSE pefume LOVER... I cant get enough of those whiffs Or ISLANDER or WHITE ISLANDER or White MUSK OR ding dong RED DOOR... I try to make my Truck & my car & my house SMELL like like all the ABOVE.. I spray the pillows & furnature & anything PORUS that will ABSORB ... Lamp Shades ect... AND I aLSO Q DO you??? LOL :laughing: I LOVE the BIGGGG rugssss..
 
It is funny that some perfume will smell so good on some people and stink on me!!! So I know what you are talking about Red!!

Yes, I Q, too!!
 
I have been "addicted" to Red, by Giorgio, ever since it came out, some time in the 1980s. I buy it twice a year - that's all I can afford to do, so I put it on when my hubby takes me out to dinner or some special occassion.

But, Red is "on the way out," I'm afraid :cry: It used to be in the department stores (Dillard's, Macy's, etc.), but they don't carry it anymore. But, the good news for me is, Walgreens carries it now - and at a less expensive price (but it's still more than I can afford - I wear it to church now, as well as special occassions).

Funny story - when my youngest son was married in 1996, my new daughter-in-law asked me what scent I wore, because she loved it and wanted to buy it, too. Before I could get the words out, my son said, "I don't want you to smell like my mother!!" :scratch: :sunny: Made sense - but both my daughter-in-law and I started to laugh until we couldn't stop :laughing:

Look on eBay ~ you can probably find some good deals ~ I can still find new bottles of Forever Krystle on there and I haven't been able to find it on the shelves in years!
 
I have a huge perfume fetish...i have about 7 different perfumes that I love...but right now I am addicted to Provacative Woman by Elizabeth Arden I have had people stop me in bars and on the street to ask me what perfume I am wearing because they love it. Usually I can only buy it at the big department stores but I see Walmart now stocks it at almost $10 less than at the other stores :nono:
 
My favorites are Clinique "Happy" and Jessica McClintock. Both smell so light and fresh, and I just love, love, love them!! I get so many compliments when I wear the Jessica McClintock - people always sniff me twice and say "oh my god, you smell sooooo good". I like that :laughing:

My friend wears Vera Wang Princess, and I tried some on in the store, but it doesn't smell good on me at all, but it smells awesome on her. Isn't it funny how our skin makes such a difference with perfumes?

Sometimes I wear White Diamonds, which the guys really seem to love. I used to wear Passion (Elizabeth Taylor).
 
Don't forget to check stores like Marshalls, and TJ Maxx. I found a bottle of JOY in TJ Maxx for 35.00 ! WOW. A 2oz bottle is 225.00 at Macy's. You better believe I snatched that sucker up.
 
My Momma would only wear White Shoulders ~ everything else gave her a migraine! I packed the last bottle that she had around in my purse for a year. When I would get really upset I would take it out and either spray it on me or just smell of it! Then I finally took it out of my purse and I have put it up on my computer desk so I can see it all the time! I love White Shoulders also!!
 
You would love my mom and my niece. I won a ton of magazine subscriptions in the MSN contest last year. So, we get Cosmo Girl, Marie Claire, Esquire sent to the house on a monthly basis. My mom and niece sit there and tear out the perfume sniffy things and they sample all the free samples in the magazine. It smells like a perfume factory for a couple of days.

I happen to like the Vera Wang princess one. i liked the way that one smelled.
 
My favorite at the moment is Tiffany. I called in a freebie sample, and fell in love with the stuff. I couln't believe how little you need, and the scent lasts forever. I loved it so much, I ended up ordering a bottle on their website. It's pricey, but worth it.
