The sexiest and most alluring scents

[Graciemom]

I'm a perfume junkie. I must have 40 fragrances currently that I love. I've given away at least a dozen perfumes that were disappointments or I got bored with them. I'm always looking for that mysterious and alluring fragrance that's not overpowering

Hi @Graciemom, what are some of the scents that you love and what are some that you were disappointed in or got bored with?

I only recently got into fragrances and don’t have any suggestions but I think people with similar tastes can then help you identify what you may like as new scents based on what you already like.

What do you find sexy and alluring? I have Killian, love don't be shy which is orange blossom and marshmallow. This is sweet and sexy. I also own Tom Ford ombre leather and MM Jazz Club, which are also super sexy but worth totally different notes and accords. What are you looking for?

@Graciemom I'd recommend

• Many of the Serge Lutens. I really like Tubereuse Criminelle, Sarrasins, Serge Lutens La fille de Berlin 3.3 oz/ 100 mL Eau de Parfum Spray . If you can find vintage bottles, definitely go for those. The new ones are kind of watered down.
• Libertine Fragrance's Sex & Jasmine
• Frederic Malle's Portrait of a Lady
• Kilian's Musk Oud

Oh, I've been dying to try Libertine Sex & Jasmine. One I love and I can't get enough of is J-Scent Black Leather. I feel like it's possibly the same vibe, but different. It has a jasmine, sex, leather, incense, and a tiny bit of smoky petrol thing going.

Honorable mention to Grandiflora Madagascan Jasmine as the most beautiful and alluring soliflore jasmine scent I've ever come across.

Sorry, the Sex & Jasmine got me going on a tangent. 

@Graciemom @I'd recommend

Ex Nihilo Oud Vendome

Papillon Spell 125 (or even Dryad)

J.F. Schwarzlose Berlin Leder 6

And I'll definitely second Portrait of a Lady and La Fille de Berlin

@julieandtwocats Oooo, Black Leather sounds right up my alley. I love jasmine so happy you went on a tangent 🙂 Sex & Jasmine is a gentle soliflore, it has a very kittenish vibe to it. Think Marilyn Monroe's breathy delivery of Happy Birthday to JFK.

And I am dying to try Spell 125. Read very good things about it. I do like the house overall. I generally avoid vanilla but I've been finding Bengale Rouge really comforting these days.

Have you tried NEST New York Midnight Fleur Eau de Parfum 1.7 oz/ 50 mL Eau de Parfum Spray ? It is strong, but maybe the rollerball would be good. Or Gucci Flora Gorgeous Gardenia Eau de Parfum with Pear and Brown Sugar  . 

Another great one to try is Viktor&Rolf Flowerbomb Nectar Eau de Parfum with Vanilla & Orange Blossom 1.7 oz/ 50 mL  

Have you tried any Kilian?

KILIAN Paris Straight To Heaven, White Cristal 1.7 oz/ 50 mL Eau de Parfum Spray  is lovely, or the new liquors collection.

Are there some scents or notes you already do or don’t like? @Graciemom
