You Are What You Smell

Sometimes I find that I can recognize people by their scents. Whether it's a certain cologne they wear, a brand of soap they use or even the smell of their home (You can literally smell incense or tiger balm on their clothes depending on what scents dominate their homes). Although I’m not a big fan of perfume, I do have a small collection of body mists and lotions. My favorite scents include Victoria's Secret's Amber Romance (a vanilla-like scent) and melon or fruit scented liquid soap from Bath & Body Works. I also like anything that's natural and organic which can be found in Body Shop or Sabon, a bath and body store. Sabon also carries a variety of room fragrances too - so in case you really don't want to smell like incense there are better alternatives like tangerine, green tea, vanilla, etc.

Sabon also carries natural creams which I think is something worth a try. I currently use one from Body Shop but sometimes I find that my skin is still a bit dry. I think I'll look into a new day cream since it seems like my skin has adjusted to the current one. Perhaps something fragrance free or fruit scented would be ideal. With any products, it's always good to check them out thoroughly especially if you have sensitive skin just to be safe of allergic reactions.

If you know of any perfumes that aren't very strong or floral scented, or fruit scented creams you recommend, please fire them this way or let me know if you've done any reviews on your blog : )
