Lazy Thursday poll ~ summer fragrances

Posted by Robin on 11 June 2009 237 Comments

summer

Today's poll: name the fragrance that says "summer" to you — something you don't bother to wear until the weather gets good & hot.

Mine: Estee Lauder Bronze Goddess. There are lots of summer fragrances, mostly bright citrus things, that I like to wear even in mid-winter to remind me of sun & sand & heat, but the Estee Lauder I don't usually pull out from the back of the cabinet until it's warm enough to go to the pool. Which, by the way, it has not been, yet. I'm waiting, not very patiently.
