I am wanting some suggestions for a new fragrance..I like fruity and floral, sweet but not too sweet. There are so many choices and I need to narrow down. Any suggestions would be appreciated!

What can I do next?

Before you buy anything...you have to go smell Jo Malone fragrances. She has a whole line of fragrances and they are incredible. What makes them unique is that you layer them and they smell very different even in the order that you layer them. I know Oprah always talks about how great Jo Malone is...and it's not too pricey...it's $50 for the smaller bottle. I just started telling my husband to get it for me for holidays and before you know it, you'll have several to mix and match. I don't think Nordstroms carries it but I know Neimans has it.

Sexy Little Thing by Victoria's Secret is awesome, it's very soft. It's a clean, fruity but floral smell. I am not one for perfumes espcially the very musky harsh smelling ones. Most of the VS perfumes I didn't like but I found this and I love it! It's not super expensive either...next time you are at a mall try it.

Go to Sephora..... They will make little samples of the o nes you think you like then you can buy them later.

That is how I got the one I wanted. I like Clean (smells like soap and water) and then Amazing or Pure Grace (soap and water) Sephora gave me samples of both before I purchased. I ended up purchasing both.

Good luck!

Mary Kay has lots of fruity and floral scents you would love. And the prices are so much better than the department store brands ($18-50). Not to mention they are 100% guaranteed and they have samples! They have Exotic Passionfruit, Sparkling Honeysuckle, Warm Amber, Lotus & Bamoo, just to name a few. If you don't know anyone who is a beauty consutlant I would love to help you out. Good luck on your search.

Definitely check out Jo Malone. Her fragrances are wonderful! I wear Blue Agave & Cocao and LOVE IT! It's not too over powering either but does stick with you.

My newest purchase is Daisy by marc Jacobs - everyone loves it, i even bought it for my mom.

Everyday summer wear i love Philosophy (nordstroms and sephora) products. Amazing Grace and Inner Grace are the ones i repeat buy, but all of the "grace" line smells fantastic. I have always gotten compliments on that one and even though it is so light!

I have to be careful what performs I wear because it seems like they all turn on me. I have tried daisy by Marc Jacobs and it smells wonderful in the bottle. However it turned on me. I LOVE Be delicious (the green bottle) by DKNY. I get sooo many compliments on it. It is kind of fruity like green apple but also has a clean smell to it. I also love journey by Mary Kay. I get a lot of compliments on it. Let me know if you want to try some journey as I have samples and if you decide to order I will give you a discount.

My two cents - Flowerbomb! It's amazing and I never run into anyone that has it! Some nicer Dillard's carry it but definitely Nordstrom's.

Try Aqua Di Parma 'Iris'. I love it! You can get it at Neimans or Saks or online at sephora.com. It is exactly what you are describing. I do like Flowerbomb too, but I prefer it in the winter...has somewhat of a warm or powdery undertone.
