    ^I have! I think maybe Sephora is my problem. lol ... I've tried pretty much everything they carry. I need to branch out. I know Nordstroms is supposed to do samples too (right?) but the people at the perfume counters always give me the stink eye. So, I avoid going there if I can. I've also noticed an issue with Sephora not having everything available all the time as a tester.

    That reminds me, the people at Neiman Marcus tend to be snotty too. The last time I was there a woman kept following me around trying to force me to sniff various things. I found what I came in to try and sprayed it on, then turned to leave and she said "Well???" and I said "It's nice so far, but I like to wear it for at least a day before I decide" and she rolled her eyes at me. Uhg. So, I wound up getting it elsewhere -just- because I didn't want to encounter her again.

    The problem with so many department stores, is that the employees are always "loyal" to which ever brand they represent. Although Neiman Marcus is very snotty, one good thing is that they get paid commission no matter what brand they sell, so they are very unbiased. Also, they are VERY generous with perfume samples. When I bought the Boucheron, they loaded me up with 7-10 different samples of other perfumes! One of them being Ralph Lauren Hot, and another Tom Ford White Patchouli (I love it!) If I was you, I would go to Neiman Marcus and get some samples of the Tom Ford White Patchouli, I think you would like it. Also, go to the section where they sell all the Creed perfumes (it's a brand that carries around 100 different signature scents) and just ask someone nice that works there if you could try some different samples, you are shopping around for the perfect perfume. Usually the specified "perfume sales people" are extremely helpful and generous with the samples. I do agree they can be really stuck up at Neimans though, it is annoying!

    Nordstroms, IMO, is more stingy with giving perfume and samples, and just all around being helpful. Like I said earlier, everyone wants to sell you "their" brand. Ugh. Barney's, to me, is like a more boutique-y laid back Neimans. They sell some unique fragrances there (including Kai) so it would be worth venturing over there as well. Go to the Versace store and try on the crystal noir! Seriously do it! It is one of the most beautiful, exquisite perfumes I have found! I just don't think you will be able to find it anywhere else.....

    Gosh Penny, I know it is very overwhelming going perfume shopping! As far as Sephora, I agree it's all amateurs working there. You can tell them you like one certain thing, and they will pick out something totally opposite. Good luck, and keep us updated what you end up purchasing, I'm curious!

    Serge Luten Koublai Khan is hard to get here in the states but it's worth it in my opinion - whenever I wear it I get treated way nicer by men and lots of comments on how sexy it smells. It's a unique scent with lots of animal musk undertones (sounds horrible but smells great on) but it works.

    ********Feminine by D&G it smells soo sexy.

    I love this perfume by Valentino. They discontinued it for some reason, hopefully it will come back, it is just called Valentino Red, it is a V shaped bottle. When I wear this people always stop and ask me what I am wearing.

    I also love Clean Ultimate, I get it at Sephora. It smells really fresh. I only like the Ultimate though, I got some of the other ones as gifts, just not the same to me.

    Ok I am probably a total hippie for suggesting this, but...
    My absolute FAVORITE is just a drop of sandalwood oil, rubbed onto pulse points.

    This is probably because I don't like most perfumes (I have a very sensitive nose) so I stick with the essential oils.

    But for some reason, to me, sandalwood smells soooo sexy and just makes me want to keep inhaling and inhaling....

    You have similar taste as me. Right now I wear Juicy and I like Marc Jacobs (the older one with the more square bottle, as well as Opium.

    I've purchased mini samples from creativescentualization.com for like $1.00 & up (small vials) depending on scent. They also make blends too.

    Another fragrance update:

    Just tried Dolce & Gabbana The One and LOVE it. It's a floral oriental.. I usually hate just floral but this one has some vanilla notes in it which makes it smell amazing. Very classy scent.

    Another one that smelled really good once it settled and the top note wore off is Burberry Brit. It's sweeter than D&G.

    Worth checking out!
