when it comes to perfume, i could never choose one favorite. i've stuck to the same five for the last few years & each of them fit a certain style or mood i am feeling that day or night. here are the five sweet smells i could never leave the house without spraying.
chance by chanel.
if i can only bring one perfume on a trip, this is the one i always take. sweet enough for daytime, but is sexy for night. with notes of citrus accord, hyacinth, iris, jasmine, pink pepper, patchouli, vetiver, amber, white musk & vanilla, this is a classic scent that like chanel, will never go out of style.

stella by stella mccartney.
about seven years ago, i remember going through sephora spraying all the perfumes on my wrist. most of them were overly fruity or sugary but then i came across stella & i never had smelled such a unique perfume. i bought a bottle right away & have been hooked on this ever since. it's my go-to perfume for night because of its sweet & spicy notes of rose, peony flower, mandarin, rose absolute & amber. you're always guaranteed a compliment wearing this out.

viva la juicy by juicy couture.
the ultimate girlie perfume, this perfume with notes of wild berries, mandarins, honeysuckle, gardenia, jasmine, amber, caramel, vanilla, sandalwood & praline, is my favorite scent for the hot summer. one spray of this & it immediately makes you feel extra pretty.

poppy by coach.
coach, a classic & preppy brand, created poppy which is exactly like the brand - a fashionable & preppy scent. this fruity-floral scent with notes of bright cucumber flower petals, juicy mandarin, & the sparkling freshness of bright baby freesia buds. it also includes jasmine, pink water lily, southern gardenia, rose petals, crème brûlée accord, cedarwood, bleached sandalwood, vanilla & whipped marshmallow. when running out the door to class, or throwing on a sundress & sperrys, this is the perfume i always reach for.

i love ny by bond no. 9
the bond no. 9 store is one of my absolute favorite stores in nyc. right next door to my favorite place for dessert (magnolia bakery on bleeker street), there is a scent for every area of nyc. this one is the perfect scent for a nyc lover like myself with its notes of mandarin zest, spicy nutmeg, blueberry accord, roses, pink peonies, patchouli, musk, vanilla, sandalwood & leather accord. this bottle was a surprise christmas gift from my mom a few years ago & i always make sure to bring it when going to the big apple. i'm thinking of picking up another bottle from bond no. 9 as a souvenir for my upcoming summer!
