    Ha Ha... I never minded waitressing much back in the day...but I hated that cooking smell on my clothes....
     
    Later I had a job where I smelled like formalydhyde  (can't spell that right, I bet)
     
    But I wouldn't mind smelling like an auto body shop.  For some dang reason, that smell turns me on....I love garages!
  • Eilan said on Nov 25, 2007....
    Right now, I smell like lavender.  I tend to alternate between lavender and vanilla.

    My husband wears various colognes--he spritzes cologne into his chest hair after a shower--but I love the way he smells first thing in the morning, pre-shower.

    My oldest daughters sometimes smell deep-fried after they've been visiting their dad.
  • Zayda said on Nov 25, 2007....
    Right now I smell like Jasmine and toothpaste (as I just finished brushing my teeth). I tend to alternate between Jasmine, Vanilla, and Sandalwood.
  • Fallyn said on Nov 26, 2007....
    wombat. my ex worked at taco bell....i HATED that smell. .....he wasn't a great believer in hygiene either.
    where were you working that you smelled like formaldehyde?

    eilan, does their dad cook a lot?

    zayda....very nice. i like those.


  • Fallyn said on Nov 26, 2007....
    i tend to smell like, my shampoo, i'm not sure what the scent is

    or citrus and berries....

    or on special occasions White Shoulders perfume. (my absolute favorite)

    i used to wash my hair with vanilla shampoos and conditioners....(to impress a guy who loved vanilla) ......until he told me i smelled like a cedar dog bed... ("but in a GOOD way!!") then i stopped.

    sometimes i smell like sawdust, not as often as i did as a kid.
    sometimes i smell like the ocean, or a camp fire.
  • wombat said on Nov 26, 2007....
    Fallyn:  Furniture factory.... formaldehyde in the wood dust...  choke, choke..., sick sick.....
  • Fallyn said on Nov 26, 2007....
    THATS what my dad always smelled like when i was really small.
  • Fallyn said on Nov 26, 2007....
    he worked in a furniture factory when we live in the dormitory and the little house.


  • amyispretty said on Nov 26, 2007....
    The only perfume in the world that i like is gap, heaven.  I've been told I smell like apples also, maybe my conditioner.  I've had a few exes that smell like crusty feet, hehe. 
  • Fallyn said on Nov 26, 2007....
    amy....ewwwe. *laughing*

    apples are nice *grin* i've never smelled that one. um...gap heaven.
  • dazed_and_confused said on Nov 26, 2007....
    Some days I wear D & G. But nowadays, I pretty much smell like blueberries because of a fruity cologne. When I leave the bathroom after bathing, I could always smell fruity scents, thanks to my shampoo. =)

    Cheers
  • Fallyn said on Nov 26, 2007....
    i love fruity scents!
  • moyz said on Nov 26, 2007....
    i smell like baby powder...coz that's what i put on after bathing...and then when i'm going out i use ...clinique...happy
  • Fallyn said on Nov 26, 2007....
    oooh, i haven't smelled that one 
  • karta.devera said on Nov 26, 2007....
    My favourite perfume for me, is Very Irresistible by Givenchy, I also
    smell good when I put on GF Ferre Her, but sometimes the perfumes are
    too much for me, so I just wear my body lotion, I shower from two up to
    three times a day, coz I treat showers as not only my body but my '
    soul cleansers' as well. I believe a hot shower rids you  of the
    negative energy people unconsciously try and send you, at work or on
    the street...etc. So after I've showered I wash off the negative, and I
    need to moisturize as well, this is why I use a nice baby lotion, since
    these are more affordable than products for women.Currently I am buying
    this German lotion named SANOSAN, smells like Christmas cake, and, (for obvious reasons), babies.

    :))

  • Fallyn said on Nov 26, 2007....
    i couldn't shower that often...i don't have time.
  • karta.devera said on Nov 26, 2007....
    I understand. I am a techer (of English as a Foreign Languge), so I can even dismiss the class if I have to. Plus I live like 5 minute walk from where I work.This is a really tiny town I live in.What do you do?Should we be doing this in PM?
  • moyz said on Nov 26, 2007....
    i shower twice a day...sometimes more..because of the heat...but normally it's in the morning and then before i sleep or if i'm going anywhere or if someone is coming over...lol
  • Fallyn said on Nov 26, 2007....
    if you want you can pm me.

    moyz. it's COLD here...if i washed my hair more than once a day it would never dry.
    as it is...if i put it into a ponytail......it's not dry by afternoon.
  • silverwhisper said on Nov 26, 2007....
    usually, i smell like my deodorant (speed stick) and cologne (acqua di gio).

    ed
  • Fallyn said on Nov 26, 2007....
    oooooh ed! nice!
  • pickersplock said on Nov 26, 2007....
    Mostly I buy unscented everything.
     I smell like dove soap.
    I get this great lemon scented body cream from the Body and Bath Works, so I guess I smell like lemon also.
  • Mamie said on Nov 26, 2007....
    my fav fragrance is calvin kleins Obsession...yummy!!!!!!!!!!!!
  • wantingmore said on Nov 26, 2007....
    My favorite perfume is Chanel Cristalle. I've worn it for years and it's the old standby. I'll wear others from time to time, but I always go back to my fave. I'm never without a bottle of it. I also like Clinique Happy, Estee Lauder Pleasures, and Vera Wang. Fun poll Fallyn!
  • Fallyn said on Nov 26, 2007....
    pickers, i get unscented deodorant so i don't mix scents if i want to smell like something else.

    mamie, obsession is yummy.

    wanting, i don't think i've smelled that one. and thanks! *grin*
  • evil_twin said on Nov 26, 2007....
    I smell like my magical Axe deodorant right now. And shaving cream. And I think I detect a hint of Snuggle fabric softener too because I just pulled this shirt out of the dryer.

    -evil_twin LA
  • Fallyn said on Nov 26, 2007....
    axe and snuggle.....now THERE'S a  manly combo for you *grinning*

    axe does smell awfully good though.
  • evil_twin said on Nov 26, 2007....
    Axe makes me sexually irresistible and the Snuggle makes me cuddly and soft. It's a lethal combination! :-P

  • CayenneMan said on Nov 26, 2007....

       Well to be honest with you, I don't smell the same on any given day. I do use after shave colognes . I'm not allowed to wear my favorite because the smell seems to take me back in time. . . to a time when I would return home from a hot days labor of cutting grass. Years ago my sister bought me a cologne for my birthday. . . at the time I was not overly impressed .I can remember coming home after walking the nieghborhood with my buddy going door to door offering our services of cutting grass.(summer break) We both were about 13 or 14  years old but we always seem to do well. After cutting grass I would head home and take a shower and could not wait to put on the cologne my sister had bought me. I would then proceed to meet up with my friend where we would head over to the mall to scoop up some ladies which we often did . . .heck we probably had nine or ten dollars in our pockets. The cologne I had used was Jovan Musk Oil for men. Even to this day if I smell that perticular scent it takes me back in tme. 

  • Me-Myself&I said on Nov 26, 2007....

    i have 3 favorite smells-White Shoulders, Red Door, Green Tea.....huh...i just notice i'm color-coded. **smile** Each of the smells go with each of my moods. see ya

     

  • wakingharmony said on Nov 26, 2007....
    I like White shoulders & my Best Compimented perfume thats has had a memeber of a band say "Oh Maggi You sure smell good"..(I was dancing near the stage) The hotter you get the better it smells ...Shalimar.
  • LadyGamer said on Nov 26, 2007....

    I use perfumed body cream. Warm Amber. Everyone who hugs me says I smell Gooooooooooood.

     

    As a woman should IMO.

  • PassionTraveler said on Nov 26, 2007....
    Fallyn, as for scents, just personal grooming products: Deo, shampoo, soap, etc. I rarely were perfume.

    Cayenne Man, from where do you hail? With a moniker like that, maybe Louisiana?

  • the_infernal_optimist said on Nov 26, 2007....
    Right now, I smell like cherry blossoms and like my shampoo/conditioner.

    Most of the time I wear Bath and Body's Juniper Breeze but if I am going out I wear Obsession Night.
  • mOOn_platOOn said on Nov 26, 2007....
     
    My jobs don't smell, but I have always loved walking into a newspaper office where you can smell the ink of the presses - I don't know if you can find that anywhere except small town papers any more, but it's a great smell...and probably toxic.
     
  • mOOn_platOOn said on Nov 26, 2007....
     
    I had a bottle of cologne forever called "Farenheit." It was my favorite and my GF broke the bottle. I haven't been able to find any since.
     
    No, she did not throw it at me.
     
     
  • wantingmore said on Nov 26, 2007....
    Oh, that's ashame moon...I LOVE Fahrenheit!!! I hope they didn't discontinue it!
  • Fallyn said on Nov 26, 2007....
    cayenne....oh....smells and memories.....and the way they go together.

    memy and waking.....i've never heard of anyone else liking white shoulders so much......
    i'll have to try shalimar too.....

    Moonplatoon.....that's what i used to smell like....i was working back there....covered in ink. *grin* it's still one of my favorite smells. actually the ink is soy based.
  • CreativeWoman said on Nov 26, 2007....
    I smell like Halston perfume today.  Sometimes it's Charlie.   Sometimes I smell like whatever I have cooking in the kitchen.  :-)

  • travelr712 said on Nov 26, 2007....
    i work on computers, so i must smell like a microchip :-)
  • Fallyn said on Nov 26, 2007....
    trav...that's doubtful. *grin*

    cw...i think i've smelled halston.....is it kind of musky? or am i thinking of something else?
  • travelr712 said on Nov 26, 2007....
    well, yeah, you're right, i don't. i just said that so i didn't have to tell you what i really smell like! :-P
  • Fallyn said on Nov 26, 2007....
    now you do *grin*
  • travelr712 said on Nov 26, 2007....
    i have been blessed with the power of rotating smells! :-P
  • CreativeWoman said on Nov 26, 2007....
    Fallyn,
    I wouldn't really call Halston musky.  I really like it though.

  • wakingharmony said on Nov 26, 2007....
    Fallyn~ Shalimar is one of those perfumes that smell differently on everybody. You need to warm it up rub it a bit and it smells better as the night goes on...
  • Fallyn said on Nov 26, 2007....
    trav...okay THAT needs explaining.

    CW...i must be thinking of something else.

    Wake. i like those kind.
  • travelr712 said on Nov 26, 2007....
    fallyn - i thought you meant 'now you do', that i smelled like a microchip now, so i rotated smells. what, that wasn't obvious? :-P
  • Lioness said on Nov 26, 2007....
    Fallyn, I always go for local mild-scented baby colognes (Bench, Hype). For perfumes, I go for rosy  scents, so I guess I smell like a rose garden. LOL  Sadly, I haven't found a soap that really clings to the skin. If I find one, maybe there's no need for colognes/perfumes anymore.

    Nice post.
  • minniemouse said on Nov 26, 2007....
    Wellll....one of my jobs I work as a manager in a very popular body care and cosmetics store....so when I get out of work I'm a potpourri of smells.....Right now I have 3 favorites.....Victoria's Secret "Heavenly", Japanese Cherry Blossom from Bath and Body Works and Amazing Grace by Philosophy....  :-)  Minnie
  • travelr712 said on Nov 26, 2007....
    minnie - maybe i'll come to your shop. i really need someone to care for my body... ;-)
  • wakingharmony said on Nov 26, 2007....
    minnie I love bath & body Works too my daughters all go there and they also have wonderful lotions
  • gingersoul said on Nov 26, 2007....

    No scented deodorant is a must.....i always leave the house with some perfume on....my all time favorites are Aqua di Gio' by Armani, Ysatis by Givenchy, Chanel Number Five, L'Istant de Guerlain and Acqua di Parma alla Rosa .... D&G too is so good.....

    As body lotions i prefer rose, jasmine, lavender and passion fuit...

    I go with the mood.....today i had Ysatis....

  • Fallyn said on Nov 26, 2007....
    trav....no.....for some odd reason it wasn't. *grin*

    lioness, when i'm not going out at night i like the babysoft scents....i think that's what they are.....really mild...i think baby powder was the first one they had...i like it...buy i like lemon better.

    minni.....i borrowed my aunts cherry blossom from bath and body works. i liked it...but it was a little too spicy for my nose. spicy isn't the right word......*laughing* golden....grrr. that's all i can say......it makes no sense.

    trav...wow.

    ginger, very nice. armani has such nice scents.
  • crybabylu said on Nov 26, 2007....
    Elizabeth Taylor's "white diamonds" only I can't afford hers, so I buy an imitation.  The only difference is it doesn't last as long.  You have to re-apply it.

    dee. i never liked that one...i'm not sure why.... maybe it has to do with pheromones.

     I am fifteen and have honestly smelled every decent perfume in stores from The Bay to Bergdorf Goodman looking for my perfect fragrance and never found anything that suited and/or smelled any good (talk about picky)! So I decided to try mixing fragrance. I went to a specialty art store and picked up a book on the art of perfume (really interesting actually) and figured out how to effectively mix them. Then I hit the Department stores asking for samples of anything I thought I could mix with nice effects. Then I spent the next 4 months or so of my spare time in the garage waving, spraying, heating, mixing and spritzing the former together in hopes of obtaining the scent of heaven (Had sooo much fun with my friends teaching them how to mix fragrance and pretending to be mad scientists! Oh yeah we're cool)! Finally found perfect mixture after try # 22 (my new fave number)! I mixed CHANEL-Cristalle with MAC Creations MV-2 together to create a cool, sophisticated yet spontaneous and unique aroma. And THAT is what I smell like! 

    Forever Yours...
    xoxo...
    Antonia 

    PS. (Don't try mixing without knowing how first. Tried. Disaster. And it smells REALLY bad if you don't do it right. Like I was trying to mix a second batch myself and I messed up. I had to air-out the garage for like 2 weeks to get the smell out! So save yourself the trouble by doing it right. Hope this helps if you are thinking of mixing!! Oh and try mixing Fréderique Malle-Fleur de Cassis with a teeny and I mean teeny bit of L'Occitane en Provence - Neroli EDP )
  • Fallyn said on Jun 08, 2008....
