Okay, it's been overdone. But since we're starting anew, let's have it.

Recommend a fragrance (or fragrances) for either women or men or both, and tell us why. Don't let me down - I know you people wear cologne/perfume. (and yes, I'm freakin' obsessed with fragrances)


I'll start.

For women, Shalimar (by Guerlain). It's very exotic and sensual. Every woman I've ever known that's worn it wears it well. It just smells good.

For men, I'll recommend my two personal favorites: Xeryus Rouge (by Givenchy) and Eternity (by CK). Xeryus Rouge is very sweet and hypnotic, and goes a long way - but it's one of those smells I can't do without. Eternity is self-explanatory - just smells good. I like my "amber" colognes - which should be evident since both of the above men's colognes are amber in nature.

For women, Calvin Klein Obsession Night. It's very intense and sexy, but in a fresh way, not an overpowering way, if that makes sense.

curious - britney spears

sounds so teenagery i know. but i love it. it's just got a really fun, young feel about it. and the bottle is gorgeous.


pssst. the main forum is supposed to for threads directly related to clothes/fashion. threads about makeup/perfume/hair/skin etc are supposed to go in the subforum 'the spa'. and of course my mod powers for moving threads are gone

I like the bottle design for Obsession Night - I've always wondered what it smelled like.

Angel- thierry mugler. Smells kinda chocolatey,vanillia. i love the star shaped bottle too. Even better is when yer man is wearing amen(aftershave). Its just so sexy
