Your ideal fragrance type: fresh
Fragrances with green (think fresh cut grass), citrus (like lemon and grapefruit) and water notes would be best suited for your energetic and fun-loving personality. Fresh fragrances are great for both men and women who want a "clean" scent. Here are a couple to try:
Elizabeth Arden Mediterranean Breeze, $57.50

14
Your ideal fragrance type: floral
You take the time to stop and smell the roses -- or you might be too busy to stop, so you'd rather smell like a rose yourself all day. Either way, you're drawn to floral fragrances and should seek perfumes with notes of rose, jasmine, gardenia, violet, orange blossom and carnations. Here are a few to try:
15
18
Your ideal fragrance type: woodsy or Oriental
Scents that have mossy, woodsy, dry and leather notes appeal to your adventurous spirit. To enhance that side of your personality, look for notes like amber, sandalwood and patchouli -- all classic woodsy smells. Scents that are warm, spicy and exotic enhance your sultry side, so Oriental fragrances, with their high inclusion of musk, are perfect for someone like yourself. Look for perfumes with notes of cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla, orchid. Here are a few woodsy and Oriental scents to try:
Woodsy perfumes:
DKNY Delicious Night, $38
Oriental perfumes:
Chanel Coco Mademoiselle, $80
Strange Invisible Perfumes Magazine Street, $135

Never worn any of these, but I'm going to give them a look and see if they might work for me. They did peg me on the types of fragrances I like, but I'm with the others who mentioned the "dream jobs." I went with chef, but I think other make-believe dream jobs could have gone into the mix too How about the next Jane Austen or Oscar winning actress? Or super-model (Yeesh).

Most of my answers were None of the Above. How about fine-tuning this with more options per question and/or a few more questions?

This quiz is so wrong. None of the perfume recommended is my favorite. I've tried almost all of them and I do not like any at all.

Hmm, I'm apparently drawn to florals...ick. I guess this isn't terribly accurate. I like musks, vanillas, spicy scents.

For only having eight questions I thought it was just "alright". Why would my dream job be to work in a floral shop? Seriously, why would I want to be a baseball player or even a sports writer? A chef maybe, but they seriously couldn't have come up with any other dream jobs for women. I mean the question said "dream job"...my idea of a dream job is like a doctor, an interior designer, a fashion designer, an astronaut, first lady, a forensic scientist, or even a wedding coordinator. Ugghh...these quizzes leave something to be desired. Although I am interested in trying one of the recommended fragrances. I am a mood shifter in regards to fragrance. The fragrance I wear depends a lot on the season and where I'm going. Unfortunately I'm just not interested in smelling of coconuts in winter regardless of whether or not my dream vacation would be on the beach of the Mediterranean. And I'm so sick and tired of smelling like fruit or vanilla cream pie. And I hate perfumes that DON'T last. I'm a busy person and I don't have time to think about spritzing myself throughout the day.
