Light fruity, baby-powdery smells are good. I don't know how to describe them. Alcohol based purfumes are bad. I shouldn't be able to clean cable contacts in your purfume.

I have a strong sense of smell and those nasty heavy purfumes make me sick. Bleh.

Just my $.02.

Coconut!!!!

I think it has to do with my perverted childhood on the beach smelling the tanning lotions and seeing lots of flesh.

My favorite too, and I don't usually wear perfume. I just spray it down my cleavage when I wear something low-cut when we go out. Seems to work for my husband. Or maybe it's just the low cut shirt?

I don't know for sure. There are definitely times when I'm talking to a girl or whatever for the first time and I am immediately turned on to the scent. I never actually ask what the perfume is...but I do notice it.

With my girlfriends, it hasn't always been that way. Sometimes I like something they are wearing very much...othertimes not so much. After tiem though...the longer I know them, the more I start to enjoy the different products they use (from shampoo/conditioner to perfume). It's kind of how you start to like things because of the person who is wearing them.

Wow, this is sad that of all the posts only like 4 posts pertaining to scents. Personally I prefer the scent "Happy" by Clinique. I can smell that stuff a mile off and it turns me carnal. ;)

I hear people talk about how most of the people on here are horny teens or whatever, but I just dismissed it as an opinion. But when this many people can't tell you what scent turns them on it gets you wondering....

Flame away, but the thread speaks for itself :)

I've yet to smell a perfume or lotion that I liked. A girl shouldn't smell like flowers, or grapes, or apples, or any other crap like that. Perfume/lotion is ok as long as it's not too much... I shouldn't be able to smell you from 5 feet away. That's why I never go to malls... girls/women there seem to go overboard with perfume, whether they're going nuts with the testers in stores, or just bathing in it prior to going out hoping to attract a guy. My eyes water when a group of 3 or 4 heavily perfumed girls walk by, it's almost nauseating.
