I love warm scents, I think vanilla is my favorite scent of all.. although I do love the scent of a campfire

I just realized this is about body scents though lol. I still prefer vanilla! Maybe coconut
 
I tend to gravitate towards sweet scents! I really enjoy smelling like vanilla and cocoa butter. @digimon recently brought the Palmers Cocoa Butter into my life and I am in love...

I am also a big fan of the Bath & Body Works Vanilla Bean Noel scent! I love getting it around the holidays. Philosophy also makes some really nice body washes - Warm Cashmere, Pink Frosted Animal Crackers, Cinnamon Bun, I had this yummy caramel apple scented one last fall I think? They're all really nice!

Otherwise I go for lighter fruity scents like strawberry lotions, I have some Marc Jacobs perfumes (a pink one that smells.... pink to me, lol. And an orange citrusy one). I wear the pink one the most as I find it compliments both my sweet scented creams and the strawberry ones.
 
my mission of the year has been to find my perfect perfume, and i'm not quite there yet despite some close calls. i lean heavily towards really sweet scents, mainly vanilla
 
I don't wear perfume but in general my favourites are florals, and perfumes with more complex floral undertones, and certain fruits like passionfruit and mango. I'm not a fan of citrus scents in candles and perfumes, although I do like the smell of the fresh fruits. I also like fresh smells and woody ones! With the warm smells I'm quite picky, some vanilla I really hate but some, and a lot of sugar ones I like! I also like talcum powder and fresh linen scents. But overall I'm not too picky and the only common one I can think of that I dislike is sea salt 😭

In terms of specific brands I can think of (I don't own any but I did use to sell perfume so I know some!) my favourite is probably Good girl by carolina herrara, and the misguided babe something one?? It's black and I used to recommend it to people who really like sweet perfumes. Oscar de la Renta essence is also very nice and more floral. Cool Water, the men's, and women's reborn are both nice as well, but Cool Water Wave is disgusting. Anyways there is my silly ramble HAH

my go-to scents are fresh, floral, greens/herbs, and woodsy. primarily the first three with light woodsy scents. :)
 
I went with fruity but foresty is also a solid option. The warm vanilla smells can be too much.
 
Fruity and/or Floral. My most recent scent to use is Rose from Bed Bath and Beyond.
 
voted for fresh. favourite deodorant scent that i use right now is fresh cotton and sea salt

considering trying out the rose jam body mist that lush make.. or something else that they've got ! in need of a new smell in the near future : ]
 
If I could find a good lavender perfume, then it would be that. However, since i cannot then it would be a light floral scent like Daisy by Marc Jacobs.
 
i love any type of fruity, floral, and fresh scents! one of my favourites would probably be the "midnight blue citrus" body spray from bath & body works. other than sprays, candles, etc. i love smelling fresh flowers, especially after they've been watered 🌷🪻🌻
 
I love fruit and flower scents.
I love the smells of laundry detergents and softners.
 
I picked other since I can’t use anything with scents since it aggravates my eczema (also my dermatologist at the time told me to use unscented products). If it weren’t for that, I’d say fruity - like with candles (I also like veggie scented ones; bath and body works had one where the candle looked like and smelled like baby carrots) and air freshener (I no longer use that since I read it is toxic to cats).
 
Oooo it def depends what I'm using the smell for!

I would say typically I prefer floral and mint scents the best!! I like going for the refreshing vibes but fruits can sometimes be a little too much so I prefer scents that aren't as sweet(?)
 
I like sweet smells like fruit, vanilla and flowers but I don't mind most other smells. I currently use lavender body wash and I think coconut Shea butter shampoo/ conditioner. I like to change up the scents of my products often so I don't get too used to them. I don't use perfumes tho. It's too distracting.
 
I put down warm, fruity, and floral since my main scent is a mix of those three- I've really enjoyed bath & body works' Dahlia ever since I found it abandoned in a random camping grounds shower LOL I'm very happy they brought it back since it was gone for a while!

But yeah I mainly stick to sweet scents- but not too sweet, cuz if they are too powerful it kinda gags me
 
Jasmine is my all time favorite scent, and I tend to go more for floral or woodsy scents <3

I also really like some odd combos, like my bodywash is yuzu + charcoal, and it's amazing 🥰
 
I like sweet scents, but I LOVE floral scents. My favorites are lilac and rose. My favorite perfume would have to be Gucci Bloom though I also really like Marc Jacobs' Daisy. I really enjoyed the lilac scent from Bath and Body Works but unfortunately the perfume smells nothing like the candle so I was disappointed. My favorite sweet scents are anything Pistachio and Cherry scented :)
 
I don't usually wear scents actively, but in soaps and handwashes I tend to like citrus fruity. I also like vanilla like scents. And sometimes cinnamon. I also like some cucumber smells... I'm not sure what category that fits in!

But my brother and my boyfriend are recently really into colognes! Which is so interesting to me, because I feel usually women are more into perfumes and things. But I'm learning now how many men are really into this! Also apparently my boyfriend has a really good sense of smell and apparently mine, I'm learning, is somewhat diminished. So I wonder if that's why I'm not particularly caring about scents. (I hope I'm not too inadvertently stinky!)
