Right now I wear a bath and body works body splash for everyday but for going out, etc. I wear a Burberry perfume that I have had since our wedding.

No, I got tired of buying one and then a week or two later it was giving me a headache so now I just try to stick to fruity soap and shampoo because I just can't handle much else.

I don't wear perfume anymore. I'm scent sensitive and I use non scented soaps and lotion.

I can always tell if my sister wears perfume.
Victoria ends up smelling like it. I prefer that Victoria smell like a baby and not the smelly stuff she wears.
I love it when Dan wears his colonge, but he doesn't do it much now for the sake of Victoria.
I used to wear it on my wrists, but haven't for such a long time.
And after being preggo, I can smell it a mile away. ;)
So I don't wear it, plus, I can't seem to find one that I like.
So, I'm like Lynette, I stick with the fruit smelling shampoos and conditioners for my hair.

Yummy! We were at a car wash the other day and they asked me which scent I wanted in the car so I told her cherry and they gave me this wafer you are supposed to put under your seat. I did and it smelled like the deoderizer that they use in portapotties! I had to toss it in the trash when we got home it was so bad and then the garbage can smelled like a bathroom until garbage day.

I don't wear perfume because of headaches too. I love to go to bath and body works, but sometime have to leave because all of the smells get to me. I just use pretty smelling soap.

John uses cologne when we go out and uses waaaayyyyy too much. I always make fun of him, but he still does it. I need to buy him some really light smelling stuff so I don't get sick!!

I cannot wear it because of headaches just like a few others have already said. I have Vasomotor Rhinitis that causes "recurring nasal inflammation, swelling of the nasal membrane or profuse watery nasal discharge that might signal vasomotor rhinitis. Swelling of the nasal tissues can cause headaches. Some people start sneezing when walking from a cold air-conditioned room into warmer air." Or so I am told by the Allergist at Kaiser. It totally sucks!

I usually just use pretty smelling laundry soap or shower wash but on the rare occasion i can wear perfume i will. Since before I had Myah I always wanted Jen-Paul Gaultier "classique" which I could only find in Nordstrum. I could never afford it so it was always one that i said one day i will get. To my surprise my two best-friends bought me a bottle as a gift while pregnant with Shelsea :D Its the only perfume that doesn't give me a headache but i still only use it on special occasions. I LOVE IT!!!!

Funny story a little OT: When I went to France after high school I fell in love with this shower gel called Tahiti so I brought some home with me. Well, the french word for "shower" is "douche" so my other mom sees this bottle in the shower and comes stomping down the hall as we were all sitting down to dinner yelling, "Which one of you girls is using douche?! You are going to mess yourself up down there with this crap!" :lol There were 5 of us teenagers in the house at the time, 2 girls and 3 boys and we all about crawled under the table until I figured out what she was talking about :biglaugh

My Hubby does the same thing. I have a hard time hugging him when it is strong like that. I am currently in the market for a parfume, just have not found one I like. I used to like Ysatis. I may try it again. There are a couple of Mary Kay Parfumes I like too. Journey, Elige, Tribute I believe. Still want to shop around before I decide.

I am right there with ya!! I am on a bunch of treatments because of severe nasal inflammation.. I just love when I'm so stuffed up that when I swallow, my nose squeeks and it's dripping like a faucet.. (I know what a beautyqueen)

Anyway.. once in a while when the pollen count is down and I really want to arouse the spouse.. clinique Happy as well as Egyptian Goddess (oil) is like snake charm!
