I really can't stand the scent of perfumes, it literally makes me sick to my stomach and my nose burns. If I wear something with fragrance in it my skin turns bright red and starts itching/burning. (and I have dark skin, so that's saying something) I really like essential oils though. I love lavender.
lavender and orange EO's together are heavenly. Just be careful about wearing citrus oils in the sunshine.
lavendar and orange....sounds wonderful, Irm. I think I will need to try that combination...I think I have lavender oil here, but no orange....will need to buy some on ebay, I think.
I spray under my arms every day, but I don't wear perfume every day , either. However, I just sprayed some Hawaiian ginger on, and it is wonderful, so I feel better now..... I am also eating a tuna fish sandwich on a bagel from Dunkin Donuts. Dogs are all looking at me hoping I will give them some. How many pug eyes do i count here? lol
OMG....10 pugs eyes. I just counted....looks like they will share...I cannot seem to eat more than a few bites of anything these days....good thing....someone said I looked thinner ...a lady I see on my jogging route....She is cool. I felt good when she told me I was disappearing....lol...not quite yet, but I will....LOL
I have decided I am going to bath each of the pugs tomorrow. I do one of them at a time in the tub, I bath each with Dawn dishwashing liquid.....and then put them outside in the pen to dry, since it will be so warm tomorrow.....They all need baths......
I like Ed Hardy perfumes, and Body Fantasy Twilight Mist bodyspray, I like wood and musky scents.... but my favorite scent of all time is patchoulli!
Poet, are you aware of BPAL? http://blackphoenixalchemylab.com They are all tied up in some stupid naming conventions (worked when they had two lines. I got connected via ren faires) I stand behind Larry and Kerry at Crystal Mountain, too. http://www.crystalmountain-aromatics.com
Chanel....yes.... Britney Spears has a perfume called Fantasy. It is in a pretty pink bottle with rhinestones. I never would have bought it, but found a new, unopened bottle of it at a rummage sale last year for only a dollar, so i bought it, and said what the hell, I will give it a try, as the bottle is so beautiful. I like the scent. I was pleasantly surprised.
Here is a photo of my perfume tray...most things just sit there year after year.....I do use the Chanel the most....but you can see the Britney bottle on the left....I just sprayed Britney under my arms......
My current favorite that I got on vacation to the beach a week or so ago.... I am so in love with this scent. Is Midnight solid perfume by Bella Luna. It smells delicious...
I love unique body oils. I buy them in small shops and I always get stopped and asked what I'm wearing. I usually wear vanilla, then layer a sweet, light fragrance over it. Or I'll pick two fragrances that compliment each other and wear them both. I'm a big fan of jasmine-lace scents. I cannot STAND musks. Blech!
