Yikes! I was obsessed with Obsession for men in high school, too :) In college I seriously loved Rapture by Victoria's Secret, but they no longer make it. I tried to find it a few years back but no luck! For a few years not too long ago, I wore Romance by Ralph Lauren. Still love it, but don't wear it as much. Nowadays, I am super in love with Simply by Clinique, Chance by Chanel and DKNY Cashmere. Simply is discontinued, but I have a few bottles stashed away. I used to wear it every day, but find that I hardly use it now. I think it's because I am afraid to use it all up :)The Ramblings of a Thirtysomething Wifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11553461322411061745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3972051150902313067.post-59309444358596307142011-02-14T08:41:27.960-08:002011-02-14T08:41:27.960-08:00I used to love sun ripened raspberry too!

For many years I didn't wear a fragrance until I found Philosophy's Pure Grace. It's my signature scent now. And, my husband loves it too, which is a bonus!Sarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05510971989522522535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3972051150902313067.post-29751666268896024872011-02-12T11:34:02.740-08:002011-02-12T11:34:02.740-08:00I don't really wear perfume, partly because my...I don't really wear perfume, partly because my fiance is allergic to most scents.

I can still smell is and picture my middle school gym locker....is that weird??<br /><br />I definitely associate memories with smell. Victoria Secret's Dream Angels perfume takes me right back to my Junior Prom. Oh...and GAP's Grass perfume they used to have?

Bath and Body Works has always been my fav. place for lotion - and I use lotion every day. Gotta keep my skin looking young! :) When I was dating my first boyfriend in high school I used cucumber melon from B&BW. With my second boyfriend, I wore lavender flowers. When I met my husband, I was using sweet pea. Now I usually buy 4 or 5 different lotions and change them out, depending on what kind of mood I'm in that day. :)<br /><br />I usually skip perfume since I use scented lotion...but now I wanna try the J'adore perfum everyone's talking about! <br /><br />-HollyHollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05847866614820716717noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3972051150902313067.post-59662333270493032512011-02-10T12:55:03.689-08:002011-02-10T12:55:03.689-08:00Oh the Bath and Body Works days!

All thru high school and college I rocked either Clinque Happy or Britney Spears Fantasy.. so sugary and innocent. :-) J'adore is my current scent, and has been since I met my Mr! I wore it on my wedding day too, and actually have a gorgeous pic of the bottle that my photographer caught in the Bridal Room. My husband absolutely loves this scent. Even if I change in the future, J'adore will remind me of love and our wedding. :-)Jessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01734686395613514771noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3972051150902313067.post-28255472672887222772011-02-10T11:15:56.315-08:002011-02-10T11:15:56.315-08:00I totally remember the tommy girl days....
