Slight balance of musk and vanilla, sandalwood, cherry pipe tobacco, maybe a hint of chocolate...complex

I'm in absolute Heaven, while cleaning out a bathroom drawer, i've found my old bottle of " Paisley " by Alan Flusser...the best way to describe it would be " baby powder w/ an " edge " or if baby powder was erotic, this is what it would be...( i thought it was lost in the move )

btw, L.B., i just noticed the price on the box...( $29.99 for this huge bottle ) got it in Steinmart, i also buy top brands online, at Tuesday Morning, and T.J. Maxx.............all highly discounted..........

i don't think i've ever spent $100 bucks on a perfume in my life( n or would i )..

my husband used to keep me suppled in JOY...his fave as well as mine...

I've heard of Joy but never smelled it. It's like that one Jicky, I saw it for $350 somewhere...no I don't have some Arab guy keeping me or anything :lol: :lol: :lol: Pricey stuff there...

The TokyoMilk was $30 but I know what you mean, first time I went into a TJ Maxx the other day, deep discounts on a bunch of name perfumes...I adore window shopping Sephora. They have one in Wayne...they'll give you samplers of literally everything in the store, perfumes, bath products, everything...I could spend a couple hours in there

I have a collection of perfumes that suits my mood. Like Lacoste's Touch of Pink and Love of Pink when I'm feeling extra girly. When I want it casual I love Benetton's Giallo. I also like to wear perfumes for men like Dunhill's Desire, Cold and B United by Benetton. Most of them are gifts.

I have a collection of about 40 perfumes and wear different ones depending on my mood. I don't wear them to work often as a lot of people (in cube world) are bothered by perfume. Sometimes when you've worn a certain perfume for a long time, you get immune to the smell. I'm always afraid I'll put on too much and people will be passing out!
One of my favorites that I've loved for years and years is Anais Anais.
I do use different scented Bath & Body lotions daily.

My sister in law wears Anais, Anais, It smells lovely on her but like Cashmere Mist it doesn't smell good on me...must be body chemistry. Bath and Body is a fun place to shop...something for everyone! I love their linen sprays.

I wear a perfume named Blood Vampire. Names a little sketchy but it smells really good. I found it once and only once but loved the fragrance so much that I've been on the hunt for it for a while.

Interesting choice of words there Laci with the name of that perfume! :)

Ugh - I too don't care at all for Cashmere Mist! Reminds me of mens Grey Flannel cologne that I absolutely abhor!

Did it come in a dark red bottle? I have something vampiry with kind of a deep vanilla smell in a deep red bottle

Very, very rarely (like once a year), a touch of Inis. Mostly though, just plain ol' Irish Spring shower gel.

Daily :) I like to switch it up with the seasons. Love Giorgio for summer! Started wearing it when it was first released and I was much much younger. We used to joke that an ounce of Giorgio was more expensive than an ounce of Cocaine (back then). The cologne has became much more reasonable over the years...and you can get a nice bottle for under $50. now.
