I like the alternatives from heavy to lighter scents. Much appreciated!

I like Light Blue. An old favorite is Sand and Sable. It reminds me of the beach.

The Bulgari Jasmine Noir sounds right up my alley. I really enjoy the smell of jasmine.

Wow . I love perfumes but as advice i would rather buy the more expensive one because they last longer and they have wayy better quality.

I have been wanting to try Philosophy's Summer Grace and now I know I will like it! Thanks so much!

One of my scent loves is this Pearberry body spash one from Bath and Body Works. Smells so fruity and summery. And it comes in a tall bottle, so it'll last a really long time!

Good suggestions, though I don't change my fragrance with the season.

Love it

These are all great perfumes, but my fave has to be Halle by Halle Barry. The smell reminds me of a sunset on the beach. Plus, it's only priced between 21. 99 - 28. 99 depending on where you buy it!

I want to try CK One Summer!

by WiccanLady Tuesday, July 19, 2011 at 02:57PM Report as inappropriate

I don't usually shop for scents in the summer so I mostly just have heavy winter scents or a few body spashes I'll use in the summer.

I'm sticking with my D&G L'Imperatrice. :) It's light and sweet and floral/fruity.

CK Summer is amazing!

by MissPurple Thursday, July 7, 2011 at 10:51AM Report as inappropriate

Bath & Body Work's Forever Sunshine is simply perfect for summer for those aged 12-25 as it is quite a youthful scent. For women 25 and older I would recommend Daisy Eau So Fresh by Marc Jacobs. BBW also just launched the Citrus Collection which includes shower gel, body lotion, and fragrance mist for those who want a light lingering scent without the heavyness of a perfume or the cost.
