Perfumes - the_marsbar - 24-08-07

Okay I know some of you might think that an "interest" (i wouldn't exactly call it that, but I didn't know what other word to use instead) in perfumes/scents is a bit weird.

Personally I'm really fond of especially light (and sometimes fruity like DKNY - Be delicious) scents. The subtler (should probably have been "more subtle" instead) the better

Also, it doesn't really make any sense for me to overuse a perfume (which is often seen today though!), because 1) normally it doesn't smell as good, 2) you get tired of using it in no time, 3) it's not pleasent for other people to even walk past you.

My personal preferences when it comes to scents have to be:

- My girlfriend's skin when she's slept and her perfume is gone. Lovely
- When it comes to perfumes: DKNY - Be delicious, Georgio Armani - Night. I also recently discovered Paco Rabanne - Black XS which has to be my new favourite.

Any of you share the same interest for smelling good?

That Diesel one is quite good too, super sk8, I have that one as well.

Hmm Pure, isn't it two different things? I always thought so.

Well you have Aftershaves and Eau de Toillettes for men usually the latter being the better quality and normally more expensive!

My faves (and there are loads!) are Esencia by Loewe , Havana by Aramis which is very hard to source now since production stopped, Paco Rabanne, Dunhill , Givenchy - Gentlemen , Chanel Platinum Egoiste , Ralph Lauren - Polo , Nino Cerutti - 1881 , Cacherel - Por L'Homme. Just ordered a new one on line on Wenesday called Commes des Garcons which is really nice i think.

Good to see we all like to smell nice!

Well what a girl wears is perfume and a bloke wears aftershave or eau de toilette.
Having said that, I usually just rub on a bit of Spam cos the ladies like me meatilicious.

And the top to are for girls? Here in Denmark we use what would be "perfume" when we talk about scents for both girls and guys.
