I love perfume. Love rich, luxuourious, complex scents. And I have several. I use them according to what I feel like wearing. I stay away from the ones that makes me sneeze, gives me a headache or makes me nauseous. I remember some scents that everybody was wearing in the 90s jused to make me sick to my stomack! Most guys find perfume to be very exiting in my experience! Just stay away from musk and patchouli, in my opinion. (even though I like patchouli, it is too powerful to wear, I think ). I occationally get a new bottle as a gift, and if I cant wear it, it just sits on my dresser and looks lovely! In the daytime I wear a very light and simple scent. If perfume, or eau de perfume is too heavy, then why not try a body-spray. Lighter and easier to wear. When I have I days when I cant manage to get myself into the shower, I take a spongebath and put on some perfume. Helps!
