What kind of fragrances/scents do you like/wear?
I like oriental woody/vanilla/spicy scents and I hate metallic/"fresh"/too citrusy smells. My signature scent is Lolita Lempicka by LL.
I'm looking to buy a new perfume as a Xmas present for myself  I'm a Cancer Sun/Moon/Mars Gem Venus and Virgo asc.
Name your placements too.

Hi Green Fairy I love Armani Code (this is my signature scent), Agent Provocateur which are evening/night time scents. I would say my taste is very simular to yours. ------------------

^^Another issey miyake fan here. I like light, fresh scents in general - eg. Daisy by Marc Jacobs, Sensi by Armani and Capri by Michael Kors. Not a fan of vanila or rose scents. Cancer Rising

Yet another Issey Miyake here. In fact I have to admit there are times when I want to smell like my Grandpa with Old Spice, too bad it's no longer available in my country.------------------

Anything musky!(is that a Scorp thing?) My skin is highly sensitive so I stick with body sprays rather than perfume. For the past four years it has been Amber Romance by Victoria Secret.

i'm a Sagittarius. i don't like refined scents. i used to wear ananya oil from Bodyshop and this rose/sandalwood perfume oil from India. everything i owned smelled like it. now i don't wear anything. especially not in this part of Asia, it's too humid i'd make everyone around me sick.IP: Logged |

I don't like perfume but rather the freshly bathed smell. Lush is my favourite brand  If I had to pick a particular fragrance I'd go with patchouli, cinnamon - earthy but spicy.Nag Champa is my favourite smell around. If they bottled that I might change my mind! (they probably do). ------------------

I don't like citrusy scents either.Generally I wear Flowerbomb by Viktor&Rolf. Before that was Lacoste Pour Femme. I absolutely LOVE Bond No. 9 Saks Fifth Avenue. I made my boyfriend get Burberry Touch for guys. Smells like heaven. Aqua Sun/Libra Moon/Gem Rising/Pisces Venus/Sag Mars IP: Logged |

Sunshine Lion and I are similar. Issey Miyake and Cool Water - both have been favourites. I love Tresor, but my mum smelled me one day and bought some too, which is totally heinous perfume etiquette!Libra Sun, Pluto, Uranus.

Ok, I will admit it...I actually like Drakar Noir on a man. I know it has this reputation for being worn by skeezy, pervy men, cause it's supposed to make a girl horny or something like that. But i actually think it smells really good. (Lowers head in shame)I also love Issey Miyake for men.

I like mild citrus scents and woody musky scents. Right now Ralph Lauren Romance and Marc Jacobs are in heavy rotation.------------------

I wear Ferragamo's Incanto perfume...
I don't know how to describe the scent tho.
Last year I wore YvesSaintLaurent's "baby pink" I think that's what it's called..They smell so good.
I don't like coconut/too sweet smelling scents. I like citrus/flowerly/clean perfumes.
When I was a teen I wore Gap's So Pink.Taurus/12th, Scorpio Moon/6th, Cancer Rising.

Male here.I like MontBlanc Individuel. It's the only one I've bought for myself, and even symbolically it seems perfect. Scent Composition: The freshness of bergamont combined with contrasting spicy presence of cinnamon, corriander and juniper berries. A blend of rosemary and lavendar with the cooling addition of mint. A masculinized floral accord of geranium, orange blossom, violet and jasmin. Combination of patchouli, sandalwood, oakmoss and vetyvert with an exotic touch of black chocolate and tonka beans and an addition of sweet raspberry with the sensual amber, vanilla and musk as base notes. http://www.montblanc.com/products/individuel_eau_de_toilette.09365.php?productDe tail=true&tab1 I seem to remember liking some of the Burberry scents when I was checking out colognes.
