Glow by J.Lo by Jennifer Lopez
I love this scent. It's subtle and you can't put on too much of it.
I only wish that
1) was that there could be a slightly deeper version for evening wear. I've tried Miami Glow (too much like sunscreen) and Glow After Dark (a little too much like Angel to be subtle). Finally switched to Cashmere Mist for evenings (which is still subtle but a little warmer). It's not as fabulous with my chemistry as Glow, but it's the effect I'm going for.
2) a stick deoderant version, like there is for Cashmere Mist. I would wear it constantly.
Other perfumes that work on me: Blue Grass and Shalimar.

Cashmere Mist by Donna Karan
The deoderant for this is wonderful. It gives just a little bit of scent without being overwhelming, and keeps releasing during the day. I'm definitely a fan of non-offensive perfumes and this fits the bill. For everyday use, I used to wear Glow all the time, but this deoderant has taken its place. It's also a little bit deeper than Glow. But if Glow made a deoderant, I would switch back.
When I first smelled the actual perfume, I didn't like it because it smelled like chemistry class (benzene rings, which they actually told us was a common ingredient in perfume). However, this smell isn't as prevalent in the deoderant, and eventually I got used to it. On me, the chemical smell wears off after about 10-15 minutes and leaves a nice warm scent.
Another reviewer suggested Burberry Brit. That smells terrible on me, it actually smells dirty. 2 out of five. Cashmere Mist is a 4/5 on me. Other comparisons: Glow is 5/5, Shalimar is 4/5, and Blue Grass (Elizabeth Arden) 5/5.
