Juicy Couture: Couture, Couture
There has not been one time when I wore this perfume and have NOT been complimented on it. It has maximum staying power even with as little as two squirts. It is light scent with traces of “pink grape accord, mandarin, creamy sandalwood, vanilla, honeysuckle, blushed plum, orange blossom, amber, and star jasmine.” For me, I say it smells like spiced vanilla. The number one repeated compliment I have received from this scent is “You smell like a real woman.” This scents screams “Goddess.” He won’t be able to resist you wearing this scent!
Victoria’s Secret: Dark Orchid
Talk about the ultimate seduction. This perfume is a bit stronger with a more woodsy scent. This screams “bad-a** and evokes the image of being naughty and nice. It is a mix of “midnight orchid, crushed plum and oud wood.” So go ahead and mix your business with pleasure by spritzing this on and showing your man who’s boss.
Coach: Poppy
If you want to a more light, playful and flirty scent, try Coach’s Poppy. He’ll definitely want to cuddle up with you after one sniff of this. This scent is a mix of “jasmine and gardenia blended with fresh cucumber and rose petals.”
