Perfume makes me sneeze so I wear body sprays from Bath and Body Works. I like the Coconut and the Warm Sugar Vanilla. When I was in high school and could wear perfume, I liked Sand and Sable and that stuff Debbie Gibson put out called Electric Youth. HAHAHA!! I am fricking old. :lol

I am also allergic to perfume, but for some reason the bath and body works stuff doesn't bother me.... I absolutely love the warm vanilla sugar. I also really like country apple, and plumeria. They also make some other fragrances that are really nice...i think one is called clearwater, or clear blue water, or something like that...something with water in the name.

My absolute favorite is Tova Signature fragrance, manufactured by Tova Borgnine, wife of actor Ernie Borgnine. Any time I wear this fragrance people ask what it is and where can they buy it. She also has other fragrances as well as other cosmetics. They are great.

Yeah, I don't wear perfume either but I wear those Body Sprays that you can get at Walmart or Bath & Body works. Anyways, definitely get the Caress Body Spray in "Berry Fusion". It's a pink bottle. It smells soooo good. Some guy in my college class was like "Are you wearing perfume?" and I'm like "Well it's this body spray type stuff" and he's like "Oh, well I was wondering why you smelled so good" lol..Good stuff :-) Also the blue bottle of Caress called "Waterfresh Breeze" is good too.
