impressing him with scent

London guy is coming up on friday and I want to wear a perfume or scent that he will remember me by, do you think people do react to scent on their crush? Do any of you make that association when you smell the scent your crush wears? :p:

I usually go for strawberry body sprays, but I worry this is not a sophisticated enough scent :rolleyes:

I also like Angel by Theirry Mugler, have any of you tried that? Is it a good one to impress guys, or too girly? :confused:

I'm afraid i havent tried that one, I used to work at Body Shop though and their invent-a-scent range was fab. you blend up to three of your fave fragrances to give yourself an individual fragrance.
And yes, I for one definitely remember the smell of my date/boyfriend... choose one that is really unique cos then he'll notice it an be like "wow!"
Although im not sure if blokes really pay that much attention to how you smell -its more how you look and what you do on the date that counts :wink:

ooh, yes, I love "invent your scent" too...I couldnt resist buying it when I heard of it, it sounded so fun! I like the green one and the red one, cant remember what they are called, together :biggrin:

when i worked there obviously I had my 50% discount, so i got aztique (my fave!), chymara (the red one) and velique (nice and flowery). i only bought them cos I thought my blending them id end up with loads of different scents, but im always in a rush so i just wear them one at a time!!

Dazzling silver by estee lauder. my first ever girlfriend had that, and it still makes me go nuts on that rare occasion you catch a whiff of it on the streets.
if not that, then deep red by hugo boss.

i don't like angel, far too sweet for my liking (also, a guy friend said he nearly choked on the stuff when he was kissing his girlfriend)

patchouli and sandlewood is supposed to be a great match, aphrodisiacally speaking.

i'm addicted to paul smith woman, but i've heard the new viktor and rolf scent is amazing, really flowery but not too girly.

i agree with 2+2=5, you don't need much, spray it in the air a couple of times and walk thro the cloud, only if you're away for AGES should you take some with you to freshen up cos long after you can't smell it anymore, other people still can
