Take the Test

Here’s what came up with my answers:
The best scent for this romantic, sensitive and sweet personality would be a bouquet of complementary florals, sure to woo even the most fickle of noses. Look for familiar notes like magnolia, jasmine, rose and lily. For the more fresh-minded, keep it light with a hint of lavender or a fresh, herbal top note. For those with a hidden sultry side, pick up a fragrance with a bottom note of amber, wood, musk or vanilla.

Right from when I hopped from preschool to grade school, I have learned to appreciate colognes and perfumes and now I have my very own collection of different scents for different occasions. Since then to the time I dated until now that I am married, I am a self-confessed perfume junkie. :-)
My all time favorite scent is Baby Doll by YSL. It was first launched in 2000. Top notes are orange, pineapple, black currant and apple; middle notes are freesia, heliotrope, lily-of-the-valley and rose; base notes are sandalwood, tonka bean, vanilla and cedar.

I would have to say that it is almost like a give away thing for the hubby, because special occasion will not be that mind boggling for him because he knows he can’t go wrong with perfumes.
A little trivia about scents. Do you know that most men believe that perfume has the power to turn on or off? For some reason, guys favor yummy scents, 55% (sweet and tasty) over fruity notes, 27% because of the familiarity of these scents to their simple childhood days. These tasty notes go towards the subconscious that loosens him up. Only 18% actually find floral scents appealing. So that’s a little guide for you right there when you go shop for your next scent.

These are a few of my collection of scents.
