Greetings!
As usual I was looking through some of my favorite beauty blogs and I came across Yummy 411's fragrance survey and I knew I had to take part! If you know me personally then you probably already know that next to makeup I am a fragrance fiend. I am guilty of stalking sites when a new fragrance is released so that I can get my hands on it. And just as much as I enjoy figuring out my favorite scents I enjoy reading about others favorite scents. I believe that a fragrance says ALOT about a person, so take a sip of your green tea while I indulge you with a few of my favorite scents. : )
Most Recent Fragrance Purchase: Juicy-Couture Couture Eau de Parfum
For Christmas I received a gift card and purchased this. To my surprise, I love it! I've always heard of Juicy and their purses, clothes, and fragrances but to be quite honest I was never really interested. The apparel line doesn't really resonate with me and I figured it'd be the same with the perfumes. I was definitely wrong! This scent is so feminine and I love it, it reminds me of being young and pretty whilst enjoying a glass of Chardonnay....it pretty much reminds me of me! LOL The longevity of the scent is definitely noteworthy, when I wear this to class I can still smell it on my bookbag when I get home, and that's just with three spritzes!
Fragrance on Classic Status: Chanel- Allure
My mom gave this to me when I was like 15 years old, I never wore it until I was 18 and that's when things changed. I became more mature and felt more like a woman. This scent was definitely a huge part of that transition. I must have worn this perfume everyday my freshman year of college and I'm sure my roommate at the time remembers the scent as well, LOL. It may be a little on the "strong" side but it diminishes to a sultry scent after about an hour of wear. The depth of it allows its strong scent not to be overpowering but instead like a raspy whisper, if you will. ; )
LIES. Overall, it offers that innocent and young scent that I sometimes go for, it is more for the teenage crowd but every now and again I can appreciate reminiscing on my teenage years. ; )
Fragrance to be Restocked: Chanel-Allure
See above. I'm running low on this one anyway.
Fragrances that are on my 'to-investigate' list: Dolce & Gabbana-Rose The One, Michael Kors-Lola, Gucci-Guilty, and Rihanna-Rebelle
What are some of your favorite perfumes/colognes? I want to know!

Fragrance that Surprised Me Most: Paris Hilton by Paris Hilton
I'll spare you the details on how I came to have this perfume, LOL. If you don't know, Paris Hilton is an heiress to the Hilton hotel brand, in other words, she is BANKING! She had a reality show a while back that was tacky in every sense of the word. Although she may be tacky I must admit that she is a businesswoman and I respect that. This perfume has a sweet smell, probably the ONLY sweet smelling perfume I have in my collection  | ||

lol! we have to go fragrance shopping together! i'm not as familiar with allure and the juicy fragrance. i had a juicy fragrance that i didn't like so i wasn't too keen on smelling the rest. i may be missing out lol chanel, i like the no. 5 now that they reformulated it (imo), chance and mademoiselle.
ReplyDeletefor me, paris by paris hilson is a classic too!! i don't wear it much because it had a place in time with me and that time has passd so i feel a bit bored when i wear it.
you know how i feel about rose the one... marc jacobs lola (?) i loved it! it's one of the few straight up florals that got my attention. i think you'll like it... the sad part is, im going hard for oh lola now. tisk tisk! gucci guilty is really nice, but i find it sometimes too average/mellow to stand out amongst my other selections. rihanna rebelle, it leaves me stuck on confused if i like it or not :/ (like the first one) i really want to love it cuz i love rih rih ... for the most part, lol!
as if my comment wasn't long enough, i pressed publish too soon.
ReplyDeletethe lady at rite aid told me that beyonce is one of the best selling perfumes in the store -__- lol
make up some new categories about fragrance and i'll answer them too ;)
lol! i didn't think i would have like lola as much as i did but once i took a sniff i was hooked! PLEASE check out chanel allure and tell me what you think! :)
