Perfume Collection

Avon's Far Away- Love the smell, hate the design. It reminds me of the 80's and 90's. Seriously, Avon? Avon describes it an "Exotic treasure of dreamy florals, spiced ambers and spirit-moving woods." It smells very mature to me, but not like old lady powdery smell. It is very concentrated so I only spray it once directly on me. The good thing about this scent is that its less than $25 and lasts all day.
Estee Lauder Sensuous- My boyfriend bought me this. I love the way it smells. Its super warm and sensuous is literally the best way to describe it. I only wear this in the fall and winter.
Marc Jacobs Daisy- I bought this when Ulta was giving away free over-night bags on wheels with the purchase of a perfume... well the bag was apparently made for someone under 5 feet tall. I am five four and I would have to kind of stoop down to pull it. I threw away the bag, but I love this perfume. This spring it's going to be used up! It smells exactly like sweet flowers, definitely not like a funeral home or florist.
 Michael Kors Very Hollywood Sparkling Eau de Toilette- I feel like this is a dumbed down version of his signature perfume. This one does not last. I love the smell- it reminds me of magnolias even though they're not present in this scent. Sephora simple says it has black current, neroli (what ever that is) and Mandarin. I love Michael Kors' designs, he is my favorite designer, but this glitter is a little tacky to me.
Dior Addict Shine- This smells super young and energetic. It smells like there may be some citrus in there. Yum!
Juicy Couture- I've had this forever! I have no idea how to describe this so I'll let Sephora do that..Watermelon, Mandarin, Pink Passion Fruit, Marigold, Green Apple, Water Hyacinth, Crushed Leaves, Tuberose Absolute, Wild Rose, Princess Lily, Tuberose, Caramel Creme Brulee, Vanilla, Precious Woods, Patchouli.
 Dior J'ador-I think I've had this one the longest. I believe I asked for it for Christmas when I was in 8th grade. For some reason what I smelt in the department store didn't smell the same as what was in my bottle did when I got it. It took me a while to grow into this. I think I started wearing it in 11th-12th grade. This is my lazy day scent when I don't really know what to wear.
DKNY Pure-I smelt this in one of those little paper peel off things in department store ads and had to have it. Like I literally got in my car 5 minutes after smelling this and bought it. I didn't even bother testing it first. Normally I don't go for vanilla, but this doesn't have that obvious vanillary smell. I think it also helps women in Africa or something like that when your purchase a bottle :)
Nanette Lepore Love Birds- I don't actually wear this, it's not that it smells bad, I just fell in love with the little birds. Plus it was only $12 because I got it at an outlet.
Chloe rollerball- Oh my gosh. I love this scent! I just cant bring myself to pay $100 for a small bottle. This is a floral scent, but I find that it smells kind of peppery/spicy on me. It is so unusual.
