My fragrance of choice is Chanel Mademoiselle. I have received several compliments on it.

My daughter has started wearing Vera Wang's Princess. A young man that she was out in a group with said she smelled, "Mmm". It should, it has notes of chocolate and pink frosting in it. ��

When I think of "sexy" scents I think of orientals right away. But amber perfumes are also pretty sensual in an exotic way... I have a bottle of Yves Rocher Ambre Noir that I love.

Basically stay away from florals which are more appropriate for the daytime.
My body chemistry amplifies sweet and musky smells. And it mellows out stronger smells that can be overwhelming - spices and wood notes for example. I can put on a masculine scent and my body chemistry turns it into something else.

Perfumes end up smelling really interesting on me. While I like the ideas of many gourmand scents on me it turns into a candy shop.

So I agree there is no one answer because everyone makes everything smell different.

This is how it's described...which isn't how I would describe it, but oh well.


"This energetic women's fragrance collection features a deep base of complex coffee notes, with mellow pear and spicy pink pepper adding balance to the aroma. Sweet floral jasmine and orange blossom notes come out on top, making Yves Saint Laurent's Black Opium an intoxicating fragrance for the captivating personality within you. Experience the vibrancy of this 2014 fragrance as part of your signature scent, or reserve it for those days when you feel like bringing infectious energy into the world"


To me, this is bedroom sexy.
I’m gonna have to try this. I love pink pepper.

None.



I would never date a woman who uses perfume, and I don't care how attractive or accomplished or rich she might be.

That is such an interesting preference. What’s wrong with perfume. People have been scenting themselves since the beginning of time.

They might not care if you don't date them.

Scent of a natural woman for me. Allergies drive me up a wall with perfumes/colognes.
