13 Awful-Smelling Fragrances
From Lancome to Avon, these women's perfumes left Total Beauty readers itching, gagging and more
No. 10: Elizabeth Arden M by Mariah Carey Eau de Parfum Spray, $54 TotalBeauty.com average reader rating: 6.1*
Why: Readers didn't particularly like the fragrance's "strong burnt marshmallow" smell, which they say was "overwhelmingly sweet, but not in a good way." One reader calls it "the nastiest, cheapest smelling perfume you have ever smelled." Another reader says she "literally gagged" when she breathed it in. A third reader says the scent didn't leave her either "disappointed" or "jumping with joy." But while she enjoyed the "sweet and powdery smell," she says it "doesn't seem to last very long."
