in my experience, men love either vanilla, sweet scents or fruity ones. I've gotten the most compliments on these two categories. Yet, my favorite Samsara has been "rejected" by DH who always wrinkles his nose and says its smells like "incense". He prefers lighter frags like stuff from BBW

vanilla seems to be their obsession....

chanel no5

philosophy - unconditional love.. gets good responses. almost done with my second bottle (i've never finished a bottle of anything), but not sure if i'll be repurchasing because it has no staying power whatsoever.

marc jacobs' cucumber splash - too bad i got tired of it and still have a huge bottle.

prada - infusion d'iris...no comments

i like "clean" scents. haven't found a fragrance to make hubby go gaga yet, so maybe it's time to go out of my comfort zone?

Most of my perfumes = no comment
That was Hugo Boss Deep Red, Dior Hypnotic Poison, Gucci Rush, Prada Infusion d Iris, Chanel, Hermes Orange verte.

The only ones that got compliments from men were : Aquolina, Daim Blond, and The Body Shop vanilla, and Sephora Coconut (cheapos !?)
Kenzo Amour gets tons of compliments from women.

D+G Light Blue. Direct quote from my guy the other day was "Omg you smell so sexy!"

Lately, my DBF has complimented me almost everytime I wore: Pure Grace (Philosophy), Chanel Chance - Eau Tendre, and Viva la Juicy (Juicy Couture)

The scents of jasmine, gardenia, and honeysuckle.

Food scents... not so much florals, and definitely not powdery scents.

what i really love from my wifes collection

D&G light blue
versace red jeans
jean paul gualtier classique

for some reason i still like clinique happy

and im also throwing down a vote for anything vanilla

lol

my bf likes my Anna sui Dolly girl (pink one) and the Dior addict 2

Not sure, but I've returned perfumes my DH didn't like, most recently Gucci by Gucci. He also does not like fruity scents or most body sprays. He doesn't like for me to smell like "candy."

Not sure why, but the original Mediterranean by Elizabeth Arden drove my boyfriend crazy, and when I worked in the service industry and I was wearing it, men were always telling me how amazing I smelled. Then again, some of those men were probably just being creepy, haha. Nonetheless, my boyfriend for sure loved it!

I have not found one yet that my boyfriend likes. He seems to only comment on ones that give him headaches!

He used to love Jennifer Lopez - Deseo a few yrs ago and I just bought another bottle of it last month and he said it doesn't smell the same & does't like it anymore.

Now I'm trying to find one he likes as well...

We would write each other almost daily, and I would spritz D&G on all my letters to him, since it was light, and not an "obnoxious" scent, and he said all the guys in there would be going crazy over the smell! They would all be sniffing my letters, saying that they wish their girlfriends would wear something that smelled that good. My baby would also sleep with my letters under his pillow at night... Now, almost 3 years later, he still loves when I wear that fragrance, and says it reminds him of first meeting me! Haha, not the most romantic story, but hey, everyone makes mistakes! :)

that is such a sweet story, it made me smile
