The "other" Perfumes

So here are some other (lesser) favorites. Like when you want to go to Jack in the Box for one of those Jack's Spicy Chicken Sandwiches but your douche parents take you to McDonald's and you have to get like, some sort of "fiesta" Chicken Sandwich and its not the same and not as good but you'll eat it because its not Burger King.

These perfumes are kinda like that: not as great but they'll do because the alternative sucks (read- I will smell like eu de Moi = not good).

The pink bottle in the back is Lucky Brand's Lucky You, the squat blue fellow is Ralph Lauren's Ralph and we have Marc Jacob's Daisy in the front.

So, the Lucky Brand is a bit more masculine than what I would normally wear. Its great for an internship/office job with a heavy co-ed makeup. Girls will like it b/c it smells kinda like roses and comes in a pretty bottle and is a pretty pink color. Them boys will like it b/c is also smells kinda like cologne and psych 101 teaches us that the person everyone loves most is themselves and will actively seek it out. The average man/boy (or manboy) will go through this thought process when he smells it:"Hmmm smells a little like me. I like me. This chick really gets me. We should hang out b/c I like hanging out with me. She is non-threatening b/c she understands me like I understand me."This scent will make you the casual office hang out girl. That is great for an internship, which is what I used it for, because you are not trying to "get ahead" in those situations. This is not a perfume for the ball-buster, the vixen or the workaholic (workaholics scare the poo outta me and they smell like coffee and neurosis).

Ralph is great for everything from weddings to funerals to working lunches. The boss wears this but so does the coquettish new girl from the Sweden office. Many will ask you what you are wearing. Please refer to the previous post for tips on how to handle that. Ralph is fresh and interesting. Think lemons and jasmine on the ocean. A very feminine sent. The boys won't likey. As I was spritzing some on to describe it my boyfriend asked me if I was drinking something that smelled like hookers. Don't wear this for the boys, wear it to impress your boss and hang out with girlfriends who will appreciate it.

Daisy is sweet and fun. Fresh flowers and honey come to mind. The boys like it and it is appropriate for most places; just not anywhere too corporate or old-school.
