    Default i am lazy - help me

    so i've recently decided to try "real" (read: high end) perfume.

    up till this point i have always used lightly scented body lotions. the -only- spray scent i ever use is various demeter scents. i actually own like 25 of them... can we say addiction?

    anyway ................. i spent awhile in sephora and i spent awhile in ulta. i smelled a lot of stuff and although some of it was "ok" nothing made me want to spend 40-80bucks. mind you, i -will- spend that -if- i find something i realllllllly like.

    so, what the hell should i try? give me some ideas so that i don't spend 45 minutes giving myself a headache.

    use this as a guide

    scent descriptions i like:
    (and it doesn't have to be all of them, obviously, that would be bad)
    semi spicy
    earthy
    foody (but not toooo sweet)
    sultry
    seductive

    scent descriptions i DO NOT like:
    flowery
    floral (get the point? heh)
    super sweet
    super girly

    basically i dislike all perfume that smells like flowers, baby powder, or teenagers. meaning.. the overwhelming GIRLGIRLGIRL scents everyone used to wear.. like "electric youth". i'd rather have "grown up" perfume.

    so..... any suggestions?

    i want something that smells like sex (not lierally plz).

    Well, to me it sounds like you'd love Coach's scent. It is distinctly feminine, but not at all girly or sugary-sweet like so many perfumes are.

    I also really like Armani's "Sensi"...it's much more rich and sultry than flowery/sweet, which I hate.

    Something that screams sultry and sexy to me that I also happened to fall in love with is Calvin Klein's "Euphoria" I seriously cannot stop sniffing my wrists when I wear it, and I discovered it in a magazine with a sample of it. My all time fave. I also love J-Lo's "Miami Glo".

    no offense to anyone, since i know a bazzzilllioonnn girls wear it, but that victoria secrets stuff (i think anyway) angel?

    can't stand it.

    and for some reason there's a BUNCH of perfumes that smell just like it right now.

    of course, lots of people -do- love it. i hear guys tell girls they love it all the time. *shrug* just not my bag i guess.

    i'm gonna write all these suggestions down by the end of the week, so that i will go out armed!

    nevermind i'm retarded.. i think that angel stuff is thierry mugler. maybe i just got it confused with victorias secret cause of their "angel" line.

    at any rate.. the "angel" that 60% (complete guess) of all strippers wear makes me dizzy.

    my favorite bath n body works stuff ever was the pumpkin paradise line. smelled like pumpkin pie... but it was a bit too sweet still.

    if i could find a perfume with the spicy but slightly sweet smell of say, pumpkin pie, with a hint of earth/woods/leaves ....... i would -die-.

    i want a perfume called "autumn sex". someone make it for me? K?

    ^I love it. I had a spray sample but used it up fairly quickly. I really should get a full size bottle.

    "Attraction" by Lancome, it's an old one but subtle and nice.

    My absolute FAVORITE that i get tons of compliments on is Dior Addict... it's spicy, sexy, deep? smelling, vanilla food-y-ish, kind of like a sexy marshmallow. not floral at all. just sex sex sex.

    I used to wear Jean Paul Gaultier classique as well.. but that might be a little floral for you- Howard Stern said that every woman should smell like it.


    I also like Burberry Touch... it's musky sexy delicious.. but maybe more of a daytime scent?? Not floral at all, or citrusy... very soft and sexy smelling.

    Why don't you go to a perfumier? I did and it was one of the best investments ever. We took a base that I really liked (Provocative Woman by Elizabeth Arden) and added and tweaked til it was perfect. Then you will have something no one else has, and works perfectly with your body chemistry and idea of your perfect perfume.

    you can find a zillion rated perfumes on makeupalley.com. I scrolled for a bit, wrote down some of the one swith the highest ratings, and now whenever I go to nordstrom, I take a look at the ones I remember from my list. Some are reeeaaaaly good. If you like spicy green scents try ma gariffe (sp?) or one of my favorites is lancomes oxygen. I also really love one of the prada ones, but I can't remember the name, and you might like some aquatic smelling ones. They are very fresh and clean, almost like a slightly powdery soap.

    I second Dior Addict. Definitely a grown-up scent, and NOT something everyone can wear. If you smell it I'm sure you'll want to buy it.

    I don't like recommending perfume for others since it's such a personal choice. I remember everyone raving about D&G Light Blue and I didn't like it at all. Mugler's Angel was okay to me, nothing special. I liked the other scents he released like the Lily and Violet Angel.

    Green Tea, by Elizabeth Arden-every guy i've met LOVES this scent. Its citrus-ey, without being over powering, not overly sweet (i hate girly girly perfumes-they make me get headaches) Its quite grown up...its delicious mmmmm

    For real life perfume i will only wear Ralph Lauren. I like a more spicy musky scent..not too girly..and his line is perfect for me. I've worn his Lauren since high school and it is my all time fav but it is now discontinued.
    THe rest of the line is nice too though.

    Yes I love gucci rush. Envy me is also a really nice scent.

    I'm personally addicted to Ralph Lauren HOT...but from what you are describing it would be a little too sweet for your tastes.
