Scent for your wedding day? Your signature or something new?

I love fragrances and will be interested in what you've chosen, if any. I decided I wanted a new scent (will always remind me of my wedding day) and wish to smell like roses (not synthetic, nasty rose), so I'm going to wear Frederic Malle's Une Rose.

I love fragrances and will be interested in what you've chosen, if any. I decided I wanted a new scent (will always remind me of my wedding day) and wish to smell like roses (not synthetic, nasty rose), so I'm going to wear Frederic Malle's Une Rose. Has a bit of wine dregs in it, but it's a late afternoon wedding in Jamaica and I think I'll be fine. I don't want to smell like a wino. Ha! Ha! The heat will definitely bring out the rose. My fiancé hasn't chosen his yet. So my fellow brides and grooms, let's forget about covid for awhile and have some fun!

    Ha! Ha! Judith, you've hit my funny bone. 😂 Absolutely so true!! I'm not putting down any fragrances, but I saw SO many YouTube reviews that Thierry Mugler Alien is a must have perfume for Fall ( not a Fall wedding), that I bought a sample from Amazon. It smells horrific on me. I know people who wear it and they smell wonderful. I had to immediately wash it off. If anyone is interested, it is VERY long lasting. I had to use witchhazel to dab the small spot on my wrist to get the scent off as soap didn't cut it. I've had a few like that. Yes, I wear a new fragrance all day just to see what it does, then my final test is to see if my fiancé comments on it. Thanks so much!! xx

    My husband had given it to me while we were engaged so I figured it was nice to wear since it was from him

    I probably will wear Heat since it’s my favorite one but Midnight is a close second. You have to at least smell them. They’re light but sensual I love them.

    I'm most likely go with my favorite Dior's Poison or Dolce and Gabbana's Red. I'm leaning more towards the Poison though it's my signature scent and it's fitting for a Halloween wedding lol

    I'm stuck trying to find a new fragrance! I typically wear Marc Jacobs Daisy, Versace Yellow Diamond and Bright Crystal, or a Chanel scent so it's kind of hard for me to think of something new to wear. I was thinking about splurging on a Tom Ford scent and only wear it on very special occasions weddings, anniversaries, etc.

    Yes! I thought of You're the One as soon as someone brought up B&BW! I smelled it a week or so again since candles were on sale, and bought it in a candle, a soap, and a shower gel I loved it so much. I could definitely see it being a great choice for someone's wedding day perfume - and the name is perfect for the occasion!

    As for my signature scent, I really love Amazing Grace Ballet Rose from Philosophy and haven't encountered a scent I love more or wears better on me than that one, so I think that will be the way to go.

    Victoria, that's what I'm doing. I purchased a special occasion scent to always remind me of my wedding day and honeymoon. Neiman Marcus has a great online sampling program. Tom Ford doesn't provide samples, but Masion Francis Kurkdjian, Frédéric Malle, Dior, Creed, & Guerlain definitely do. Probably others, but those are the companies I sampled. The representatives are very kind, just email them by going into a fragrance product, and they go out of their way to assist a bride. Hope you report back on what you are going to wear!! Best wishes! xx

    Katie, I've got to smell You're The One, now. 😂 Sounds lovely!!


    As to your wedding fragrance, there is absolutely nothing wrong with going with a tried and true favorite. I was going to wear my little known signature scent, Josephine by Rance, but changed my mind ( eventhough it is still one of my absolute favs). I love the name of yours, too. Sounds very romantic!! Philosophy makes good products. Thanks for letting us know what you'll be wearing. Will look forward to your wedding!! ❤
