Fragrances???

Yes- I have to be careful with the husband too- he gets migraines from some of them. This afternoon I was going through some of the new scents I ordered, and one of them was a masculine musk scent. When I smelled it- I immediately had "impure thoughts" - it was drop dead sexy. I thought about making a men's scent for a few minutes, and then I realized I wouldn't be able to let my husband out of my site if he was wearing something that good. I haven't brought any home to him- but if any of you have single brothers or sons- let me know. It's a good one.

I'm going to pull back from this thread and let you girls chat- I'm reading and taking it all in! You're all making excellent points- and I agree with you on the grapefruit- it has to be the "right" one.

oh what's it called?!?!? I've been dying to find an amazing cologne for my boyfriend (should be fiancee but a promise ring doesn't quite cut it lol). He has curve crush and givenchi pi but i had a bf in highschool where i swear, half the reason i dated him was the cologne he wore. They don't make nearly enough "impure thoughts" colognes for men. lol.

I'm throwing my weight behind PINK GRAPEFRUIT! I absolutely adore the line by The Body Shop but they don't bottle that delicious scent they have in their Body Butter and Body Wash. Pink Grapefruit instantly perks me up and makes me happy. =)

Another fresh scent I like (this is going to make me sound like I'm 5) is the Pink Lemonade scent Bonne Belle puts in their lipbalm. It's sweet, but with a sour citrus bite that is mmmmm....

I don't know if anyone else has suggested this, Karen, but I've always thought The Body Shop was on to a good thing with their mix and match line. Only the scents they produce are too complex and they break me out = (

How about some "note" scents that we can wear together or make a blend of, or wear alone depending on our moods along with more complex scents?

Got a sample of Tease. I really like this one! The scent I had before it was Mystic and thought it was a more mature scent. Didn't like that one until it was faded a bit. Lure Beauty also has a yuzu mango besides the yuzu grapefruit that smells great.

I also got a sample of Tease and really like it. It is lighter than Mystic. I can't really describe the scent.

I'd like to see the following fragrance families represented:

1. Citrus-floral - tangerine, lemongrass, jasmine, lime
2. Refreshing floral - rose, jasmine, sandalwood, ylang ylang
3. Earthy-spicy - sage, patchouli (but not too much), pine, sandalwood, musk
4. Sweet - vanilla, almond, mandarin orange

I'd love to see a natural duplicate of Clinique Happy.

I got a sample of mystic, and it is great! I generally don't wear perfume, but would definitely wear mystic!

Hi Karen, you might not be quite old enough to remember this scent, but I am sure there are a few others out there that remember the scent of Clairol's Original Herbal Essence shampoo(from the 70s). If you could do a dupe of this, I'd be in heaven!

Hi
I'm working on the grapefruit, and I think I've made something I love...any suggestions on a name? It's a juicy pink grapefruit scent blended with a little bit of cassis for tart sweetness.

I love cassis! I'll refrain from Love Potion #9 as a name though
