What Perfume Makes You Happiest? (Not Sexiest, Happiest).

partner

They're two very different things, right? For me, it's Petite Cherie, which was made by perfumer Annick Goutal for her daughter Camille. It landed on my desk a year ago when we were researching amazing products with pear as an ingredient, and since then, I've sprayed it pretty much every day to get through the bleak 3-4 PM time block. Like I say, not sexy, per se, but sweet and bright and sort of nostalgic, if that makes any sense—like the best, ripest pear you ate as a kid. Bottom line: it makes me happy.

So: Yours?

Does your perfume change your mood?  Apparently it changes snow leopards'... check it out!

    Currently, Tokyo Milk's Kabuki is my #1 choice of fragrance to put me in a good mood. It makes me smell like a sugar cookie in the best possible way, not a cloyingly sweet and artificial way...I pretty much love everything that Tokyo Milk makes! Back in the day, though, Clinique Happy was the perfume that I would always wear to make me feel like sunshine, it was my instant mood elevator. It might seem a little obvious, since the name of the perfume is Happy (duh!), but I loved it and even now when I smell it I smile!

    I guess mine would be Pink Sugar by Aquolina. It's sweet (but not overly sweet) and is playful, kind of reminds me of the cotton candy stuff I wore as a kid. Pink Sugar is more sophisticated though and is the perfect playful grown up scent, in my opinion.

    When I want to feel happy, I wear Amazing Grace by Philosophy. I wore it on my wedding day and it brings back lots of very beautiful memories.

    At DOTS there's this perfume called 'Yes,Yes' and it smells like cotton candy and a lot of sugar. It's really sweet smelling and it makes me really happy and energetic.
