Hi all:
I received a Sephora gift card for my birthday! How nice that someone understands and respects my interest in fragrances enough to give me such a gift. I was surprised and touched. Now I have to figure out what to buy.
I went to Sephora on Monday to try things out. The selection was somewhat limited. I thought I would look for something nice for summer since we are headed there soon. From what I tried, here is what I am considering:
Prada Man (Amber)Ive been flirting with this one for about a year now. I like it every time I try it, but for some reason I just havent been able to make up my mind. Im afraid that I might get tired of it after awhile. I do love the soapy smell though.
Kenzo (original)I was surprised that they even had it because I had never seen it in a store. It fits well with my oceanic interest, as detailed in a previous thread. A strong contender.
LEau par KenzoI liked the refreshing lemonade character of this but not sure about it for the long haul.
DKNY MenHiss, boo, hiss, you might say, but I loved the way it smelled! Another strong contender.
Burberry SummerAnother I liked in the same vein as DKNY Men but perhaps not as much.
Cannabis SantalThis was in the womens section. Probably not really a summer fragrance, but I liked its soft sweetness. Great price, too.
There were others (Allure Edition Blanche comes to mind), but the ones mentioned above were the standouts for me. Im leaning toward Kenzo or DKNY. Probably Kenzo because I might never find it in a store again, but Im having a hard time making up my mind. I know Sephora has other offerings online, but Im limiting myself to the ones I can get at the store.
Just thought I would share my Sephora testing expedition. Thanks!
