What are your favourite perfumes to use as cover-ups for the “non rose smelling” phero’s? Any perfumes that should be avoided for any particularphero’s?
I’m currently totally mad about Lolita Lempicka’s perfume…I reckon that it may work well as there seems to be alot of mentioning of vanilla, candy & musk-like scents
“Lolita Lempicka for Women is a refreshing, oriental, woody fragrance that has a blend of exotic liquorice, vanilla, violet florals and musk.”
I personally haven’t used it yet, but I’ve heard fantastic things about using Aqualina Pink Sugar as a cover. I love DKNY Be Delicious, and it seems to be working for me just fine. I don’t know about avoiding any perfumes unless they’re nasty smelling .
Pink Sugar seems to be the best for covering the smell of cops. Adding just a hint more liquorice to Pink Sugar is good for covering lingering smells like Androstenone.
Alone Pink Sugar smells like warm sugar cookies to me. Adding cops to it makes it smell like butterscotch and sex, which my husband finds particularly appealing for some reason.
Lately, I’ve come to have a liking for Ralph Lauren Romance to cover things up. There’s this floral pleasantness that helps make the cops smell less gross. I really must get my hands on Pink Sugar one day…
Ah, no… it is a much more complex scent than that.
Its notes are: Bergamot, Sicilian Orange, Raspberry, Fig Leaves, Lily of the Valley, Licorice, Strawberry, Red Fruit, Cotton Candy, Vanilla, Caramel, Musk, Sandalwood, tonka bean and Powder.
When you first apply, the powder, wood, musk notes come out first. Then it complexes up and you begin to take in all the other elements. This is a top knotch , very well balanced fragrance, and why we love it so much. It is geared towards the younger market and isn’t really appropriate for evening-wear for mature women. But for day wear, this is just wonderful at any age, imo. You can layer it with a little more musk and spice it up and it is fine if you find it is too sweet for your tastes.
It has been one of Sephora’s top 5 colognes since it was introduced.
To most men’s uncomplex noses, it smells a little like cotton candy, caramels, and buttery sugar cookies. It is a warm, homey, comforting smell. To us ladies it is much more than that, and a wonderful day-time cologne.
That sounds really nice actually, not at all what I’d expect from the name Pink Sugars. I bet I’d like it as long as there isn’t a huge emphasis on vanilla, not too keen on sugary vanila scents.
