Lovely

As you can see, Lovely by Sarah Jessica Parker is an all-time favorite. I've been through a few bottles since it's release in 2005. Of all my perfumes, it's the easiest to wear - softly feminine and sensual, delicately balanced, and not overpowering. It is light and elegant, not cute or girlish - definitely a womanly scent. The pink-hued bottle is pretty with restrained and graceful curves. A grey grosgrain ribbon wraps around the bottle under the cap. I would highly recommend this scent to anyone looking for a light fragrance that does not overpower a room. Don't be intimidated when you read the description of the notes - the patchouli, for example, is a mere whisper. Top Notes: Mandarin, Bergamot, Lavender, Apple. Heart Notes: Patchouli, Paperwhite, Orchid. Base Notes: White Amber, Cedar, Musk.

Daisy In The Air

My mom bought me this perfume on a trip she took - and it has become my current favorite scent for everyday use. It's quite similar to the original Marc Jacobs but less heavily scented with gardenia, and different enough to make it worth owning both. It's a version of the Daisy line, this time with a sky blue daisy-shaped top. It's light, floral, and easy to wear. Plus, it came with a scented blue paper garland - adorable. Marc Jacobs has such a sense of whimsy. Top Notes: Wild Strawberry, Violet, Ruby Red Grapefruit. Heart Notes: Gardenia, Violet Petals, Jasmine Petals. Base Notes: Musk, Vanilla, White Woods.

Next I'm going to try one of the Marc Jacobs solid perfume rings (available at Sephora). They are so cute!
