LaP Mure et Musc small size total Blind buy but I like blackberry & musk by Trish McCavoy

Boyfriend -tried &like

Le Heure Bleue-Have a sample /probably vintage sample

Mitsouko Have 2 mini edt not sure if the new is mossy enough

Flowerbomb -sweet but I like it

Gucci Flora Flankers

Eau Sauvage -tried and Liked

Saint/sinner Kat von D

Fresh Cannabis Santal

Theodora Urban Decay makeup palette

Nailpolish -probably Opi,Orly or China Glaze

Haven't sniffed all those but out of the ones mentioned, I'd go for either the Le Heure Bleue, Mitsouko, Coco or Coco M.
Which of the ones you mentioned do you like the most, you think?

Not really sure .Sometimes having eclectic taste can be difficult.

Please retry L'Heure Bleue, it might be in the formulation to knock your socks off, as it varies greatly. Another thing to retry is Chanel Coco -- can't go wrong and a little lasts a long way in any concentration. For either you will probably have to add some clams though as none comes as cheap as $40 these days (sorry).

Burberry Brit is not bad, please also try to test before you buy.

Maybe a couple of roller ball fragrances by Fresh? Or else, buy some makeup. Well, that's what I would do. Or maybe find a new (to me) Kenzo fragrance. Do you know what you like from your list?

The make-up idea isn't bad -except that I don't wear it all that often and my Mom is in MaryKay (and I have enough to wear for at least 5yrs -except mascara)
I may have to snoop the Kenzos.Thanks for the recomendation!
