Scent of A Woman - My Closet Friends

It’s rainy days once again and this is the time when I appreciate scents the most.  I love scents but  you can never make me wear one during summer here in the Philippines especially when the temperature reached 35º.  Except of course during occasions wherein I will need to mingle with people, shake hands and make “beso-beso”. 

Here’s sharing to you some of my favorite scents that I had fun of taking photo one time that I found them neatly lined up in my closet which is a rare instance.  They are usually messily stack together in a basket inside my closet.  These are from my previous stocks. I haven’t check what are the scents in my closet right now though I spotted CK.

my closet friends :)
MyScents

1. Dolce & Gabbana for Women by Dolce & Gabbana
This first women’s scent creation from Dolce & Gabbana is somewhat perfect for my taste (or smell should I say).  I am biased with scents with a citrus note.  This Dolce & Gabbana is perfect for me because I found the scent combined with a note of flower, herbal and soft-musk.  Aaah! exactly what I’m looking for. 

What makes me love it more is the simple but classy packaging – the red top (pour femme) cover in sturdy rectangular bottle makes it my favorite “grab” from my messy perfume basket. 

2. Glow by JLo
Honestly, I am more interested with the bottle design than the scent.  I’m guilty with this bottle because I stripped it off with the cutest and sexiest bottle accessory which is a “bottle-necklace” like accessory in silver cord with “JLo” initial in Swarovski crystals.  I strip it off and put the accessory on my black Nokia passion phone.  It is supposed to look like this.

I hope I can find a photo of my favorite Nokia cell phone wearing this accessory so I can share them with you as well.

Glow is the first fragrance by Jennifer Lopez and it became very popular which inspired other celebrities to launch their own fragrance line.

3. Victoria’s Secret Eau De Toilette Spray and Body Mist
My all time favorite!  This is not only my closet friend but also my purse’ best friend thus I prefer the 30ml bottle.  This is my “wear anytime, anywhere” scent.  I wear this even during summertime.  That explains why the bottle from my stock is almost empty.  I like all the scent in the Secret Garden line but my most favorite is Love Spell.

4. True Star by Tommy Hilfiger
I’m not sure why this scent makes me feel confident when I’m wearing it.  I was thinking maybe because it is being endorsed by one of the most influential celebrity – Beyonce?  I don’t know.  I simply love its aquatic fresh and fruity sweet scent with a note of citruses and musk.

5. Dune Dior for Women
Actually, my old/all time favorite scent is Poison by Christian Dior.  I don’t have it in my closet for quite a while because I can’t find one when I was looking for it and nobody is giving me one for quite a long while (paging sponsor friends lol).

Then I found Dune!  and I fell in love with its scent too. I don’t know how to exactly describe Dune’s scent but I’m sure there’s a lot of flowery scent in it including the rare ylan-ylang.  All I know is that I am liking it because I found in it the same sweet scent that I found in “Poison”.

There it is!  Some of my favorite scents.  I will try to share more in the future.  What about you? What is your favorite scent?
