Days are just a bit longer; sun’s a little stronger.
Pastel posies blooming everywhere….
We’re all feeling flirty; puttin’ on our “purty.”
All because sweet Spring is in the air.

I really like Elizabeth Arden’s Green Tea. It’s citrusy and minty with just a hint of musk. I wear it year-round, but especially in the spring. It makes me feel clean and energetic!
I wear Clinique’s Happy. The citrus scent makes me happy. 😀
I love Dolce & Gab’s Light Blue for Springtime. It smells clean and fresh ~ a little like sunshine! When I wear it, I feel like I should be swinging in a hammock with a big, frosty glass of lemonade in hand….
I use Cotton Blossom by Bath and Body Works. It smells a little sweet and sort of like fresh laundry. It’s inexpensive, so good for my budget!
I find that in the warmer time of year, perfumes can feel so overbearing. Especially since I’m a spicy perfume kinda gal. So instead, I opt for scented moisturizers and such! My favorite would be Kiehl’s Superbly Restorative Dry Oil. The smell is light and since it is a “dry” oil… not sure how that is possible… but that means no greasy sticky mess! And you can use it anywhere! Face, body or hair!
Another option is to head to your nearest Bath Junkie. You can mix up whatever scent(s) into almost any kind of lotion you want. So if you are craving the smell of basil and dirt (Really! They have it!) or lemongrass and mint, you can mix it up just how you like!
Cool. http://www.bathjunkie.com/
Yes yes! That’s the one! Although, if you have one near, it’s a great experience to go. You can sniff all the scents and select what makes you happy! I always thought I loved rose scented things… turns out peony is really what makes me smile!
Florals, honeysuckle and lilac!
Forgot the most important part!
Honeysuckle and lilac smells make me feel light and springy! When I was younger I had a lilac tree under my bedroom window. How lucky was I??!!
OMG Jennifer, too funny! I wear D&G Light Blue too. Great minds DO think alike.
I love Bath and Body Works and Avon Body sprays they are light and refreshing! I don’t care for anything heavy. Right now I am wearing Avon’s Sparkling Pear and Acai Body spray which I also mist through my hair.
One of my favorites is Island Capri by Michael Kors. Really nice smelling one. Sad that my bottle broke, really need to get another one.
I like Avon’s Haiku, Victoria Secret’s Strawberries and Champagne, and Curve Wave. Strange assortment, I know. And hi from AQ. 😉
Hiya! ;-D
I absolutely love Marc Jacobs’ Daisy Eau So Fresh and and Lola by Marc Jacobs. I also enjoy Viva La Juicy from Juicy Couture. I have been spoiled by my nephew – he recently got a job as the frangrance specialist at our local Sephora so we get samples all the time and for my birthday he surprised me with the bottle of Viva La Juicy 🙂 Yummy!!
I never pay attention to the time of year. I just wear what I’m in the mood for at the time. I usually have several smaller bottles of my favorites. I wear them based on occasion. I have something fancy, and something light. I even have a favorite DH hates that I wear when he’s away on Coast Guard duty.
I guess I’m just an old foggy, I still wear Estee by Estee Lauder. Have for years. Went to purchase the bath powder to match recently and found that they no longer make it, sniff, sniff, wahhh…:-( …so looked around and sniffed a lot of different ones but didn’t find anything that I really liked in the short time I had, then just kind of gave up on it…au natural now a days…saving what’s left of my Estee for special occasions…
Diamonds Extreme by Armani, every day throughout the year. Love it!

I love a smell that is not too loud, but makes me feel warm and romantic. it wafts when i walk. smells of citris (grapefruit) and hawaii. it should smell fresh and not at all over bearing. it should lift my spirits. I used to love paloma picasso for very special evenings, but that is too heavy for everyday wear. I have not found any that i can wear that dont shut my nose down when i put them on.
Moonlight Path, from Bath & Body Works. 🙂 It’s nice and light, and I frequently receive compliments when I wear it.
I love woodsy, green scents in the spring. Anything that reminds me of the smell of green growing things. My grandmother used to wear something that smelled like that, and I have yet to find what it was….
