Over the years, I've become so familiar with many varieties of women's fragrances that I've been able to develop an easy list of my repeating favorites of all time and would like to share them with you. Whether you like fruity or woodsy fragrances, there is sure to be something you like in this list. Here is my top 5 list from 5 to the ultimate #1!

5. Armani Code

Description- contains the scents of orange blossom, ginger, vanilla, honey, jasmine and more. A beautiful fragrance. I also love the blue and black bottle that it is packaged in.

4. DKNY Be Delicious Green Apple

Description- Sold in a short green tinted bottle shaped like an apple. The perfume has green notes that make you feel energized. The notes include apple, grapefruit, cucumber, violet, rose, amber and sandlewood among others.

3. Juicy Couture

Juicy Couture is an amazing scent and you will feel good wearing it. It contains notes of watermelon, mandarin, green apple, passion fruit, patchouli, woods and more.

2. Chanel Chance

I must admit that before I started wearing Avon fragrances to save money, Chanel Chance was my favorite fragrance of all time. I was more apt to buy it than the next fragrance, the #1 on this list because it was a very close 2nd in scent and it was more economical. Average cost $70-$80.

Description- Chanel Chance contains pepper, lemon and pineapple among the top notes. It is a fresh, sweet and happy scent.

1. Jean Paul Gaultier

Description- The bottle looks like a corseted torso of a lady. With the simple scents of vanilla, amber and woods, Jean Paul Gaultier by Jean Paul Gaultier is the best! Average cost $85-$100 at retailers like Macys and Sephora, but can be found more discounted at retailers like perfume.com.

Of course, this top 5 list had been based on my own personal favorites. I have tried all the above fragrances and have purchased many of them several times.

In reviewing the list, I realize I have a tendency to lean towards woodsy, vanilla, amber or fruit scents. The list does not leave much in the line of choices for those who prefer floral scents but I hope you like the list and if you are not familiar with some or all of these scents, give them a try. You won't regret it.

In summary, I notice some of my favorite scents repeating themselves, i.e-

green apple

watermelon

vanilla

Enjoy trying one of these perfumes today!
