    Marc Jacobs Autumn Splash Ivy by Marc Jacobs

    I love this fragrance. It smells amazingly natural compared to all the other designer fragrances that all smell the same, cheap, and synthetic. It reminds me of dried twigs and leaves, a wool sweater, and warm autumn breeze. I find it very relaxing.
    I found this when i wandered into the Neiman Marcus. I had no plans on buying anything, just wanted to try some stuff out. After perusing the Hermes, Creed, etc., I found some nice stuff but nothing worth those prices. Then i see this massive rectangular bottle of brownish-green stuff. I was immediately intrigued. I tried it, and thought i was going to melt. I had to buy it.
    I have many fragrances, but this is my go-to. It just seems right for any occassion, but definitly a fall/winter scent. The notes that catch my attention are the suede and minty "candycane accord," they are what make this fragrance so unique in my opinion, and really stick out. At first the suede was a little annoying, but has grown on me, and is now my favorite part.
    I use this stuff for everything, and with 10oz of it, thats not a problem. I use it as a cologne, clothing and linen spray. Once i even sprayed it one my pug dog when she was a little smelly, and it worked great! I really can't say enough about this stuff.

    One thing i don't get though is why this is classified as a womens fragrance. I don't get that at all. I even bought this in the men's dept. at NM. Oh well, I wear it more for me anyways.

    Kistna by Body Shop

    I love green fragrances and this is one of the greenest leafy ones out there. The green and herbacious notes kinda take control of this one as i don't really detect any of the spices and vanilla that are supposedly in here. This is a good summer scent. I have gotten compliments from both men and women with this one. Nothing special or groundbreaking, but a solid fragrance for a good price
