    Just like the title suggests. What fragrances do you wear (male or female) and why? What fragrances do you want?

    Britney Spears - Fantasy

    Because i like it.

    I'm female, but I tend to veer towards scents that smell masculine. I far prefer them to light floral scents.

    I like CK One and CK Be.

    Another favourite is Elizabeth Arden's Spiced Green Tea ( a version of the Green Tea scent)

    Gucci Rush
    Gucci Rush2
    Armani
    Inis
    Anais Anais
    Body Shop White Musk

    Coolwaters
    Joop (sometimes)
    Miracle
    CK1
    CKB

    I'm interested to know what ladies think of these though :)

    Vera Wang - my wife and I chose new fragrances to wear the day we were married. So when you apply it anytime afterwards it brings you right back, it's a nice idea and it works. :)

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,264 ✭✭✭✭jester77


    Comptoir Sud Pacifique - Bois De Filao is nice

    Some of the Creed collection is also very nice, my 2 favorite are the Silver Mountain Water and Erolfa - this one was actually given out to first class passengers on the Titanic

    Acca Kappa's White Moss is amazing

    but the best has definetly got to be either
    Clive Christian's X for men or
    Divine's - L'homme de coeur
    Think i slightly prefer the Divine
    Both never fail to get comments :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 194 ✭✭Serpentine


    Armani Mania- divine! Or Ralph Lauren Romance both remind me of great nights out, or Polo Sport woman for daywear subtle but always get complimented on it (actually every1 notices them all) :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 169 ✭✭hughm


    Fahrenheit
    Versace
    Gucci
    Obsession
    Ralph Lauren – Safari


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 198 ✭✭Stephanos


    Jean Paul Gaultier, Le Male because I think it smells like Heaven or at least that is what I hope Heaven smells of.

    Also partial to Dior, Eau Savage because it is nice and oh so different.

    Hypnotic poision by dior...have been using it for the last 6 years.When ever anyone smells it it reminds them of me and its is just a gorgeous smell.Not many people wear it which is a plus too.

    I also sometimes wear maybe baby by benefit cos i Like the smell of that for a bit of a change too and it seriously sexy which perks me up when im having a non sexy day which happens lots:)
