    My mum rang me last night, gobsmacked at the price of Dior Pure Poison, wanted to know why i have such expensive taste in scent, all i could reply was that it has always been my fav perfume, and the scent makes me feel just that bit more girly.

    Before i found Dior Poison i used to wear Elizabeth Arden, but there was something about Poison which really turned me onto it. You dont need much on, just walking into the mist is enough otherwise it can be a bit overpowering, but i kinda love that heavy scent it has.

    For me, it is the most feminine smell in the universe, aside from a well battered minge =o)

    Seeing as its almost Chriiiiiiiiiiiiiistmasssssssssssss (yeah fuck off noddy) whats your fav scent and why?

    Love that and scents are always soooo evocative - lol my liking for vanilla started off with incense sticks - love strawberry and my biggest discovery recently on natural products is lemons and limes - they are soooooooooooooooo good for MY skin -not for everyones but for me they are brilliant.

    I always gotta have a Vanilla scented Magic Tree in my car, love the smell but it makes me hungry lol though i once made the mistake of buying those Vanilla flava Monster Munch a few years back, totally gross, soooooo wrong lol
    Have used coconut essence before, on my legs and bum, they felt lovely for hours, i kept stroking my own legs cos they felt so soft and lovely lolxx

    Oooooh just been checking out RoseWater- never heard of it before I am amazed I had never come across it before - and looks well cheap if this is what you are talking about - looking at this site -which is pretty upmarket by the look so maybe worth a go cos the special couscous is really cheap http://www.melburyandappleton.co.uk/giant-couscous-jumbo-couscous-moghrabieh-fregola-86-p.asp

    Well Ellen - I am pleased that fortune is smiling upon you - I am brassic presently- something to do with two massive break ups, enforced homelessness, a violent landlord and a daughter. Factor in no parental assistance since 16, and not being ablet to even get mobile again...I am grateful that you have suggested rosewater, and I know that alot of people are short of cash- I was not trying to imply that you were girl. The question of the right fragrance is all about what suits your body chemistry - you can buy bloody expensive stuff that smells horrid on you - and what is the good of that - if you smell lovely with an organic product then brilliant- I hope I do and will be looking at the full range of natural cosmetics which link off from it - Its great it allows one to consider a full range of fruit and flower based aromas and have already suggested the links to my daughter who as a student nurse could hardly ever afford the fragrances she really liked.
