According to Sephora.com, I smell like centifolia rose, peony rose, fantasia rose, passion rose, emotion rose, verbena leaf, star anise, vanilla, and patchouli.
Vibrant. Brilliant. Captivating.
Givenchy’s Very Irresistible Sensual — not to be confused with it’s pink-bottled sister, Very Irresistable.
For the past three years, this has been my fragrance of choice. What some might consider a signature scent. I can count on one hand the number of times I’ve spritzed myself with anything else other than this. It’s just a perfume that I cannot get enough of! I have received a billion and one complements while wearing this fragrance!
I am a huge believer in developing a signature scent, finding one smell and sticking to it. Mainly because it kind of makes you unforgettable. Your brain just remembers scents very, very well. I own almost 15 different perfumes. Almost all of them have vanilla or gardenia in common. Only three or four of them [including Givenchy's Very Irresistible Sensual] have become signature scents throughout the past … four or five years? The rest I’ve just worn a little bit here and there. I know, what a waste! But hey, at least the bottles make for a pretty display!
What is your signature scent? Would you like me to share my perfume collection with you all?

I love Very Irresistible Sensual, I would love to see your collection! I also have a lot of perfume lying around but I would say my signature one is Insolence by Guerlain. I love it because it’s so unique, and I’m the only person I know who owns a bottle of it (the perfume has been around since at least 2006 and I’ve only ever smelt it on one other person), which makes it feel more like my own signature scent.

I feel the same way about Very Irresistible Sensual .. I have yet to smell it on anyone else! I don’t like wearing perfumes people I know well wear because when I smell it I think they’re right behind me or something! Haha

I have around 20 bottles of perfume; I tend to become bored easily, so I rotate what I wear almost daily.
The one I never tire of and always re-buy is Ghost. Not really unique I know (at least in the UK), but no-one I know well wears it, so I guess it could pass as my ’signature’ scent.

My signature scent is Juicy Couture Viva La Juicy. I’m completely obsessed! About a year ago, I was obsessed with Aerie’s signature fragrance, it smells soo good. I almost love it more than Juicy, but I’m trying to switch it up.

I love Bella by Mary Kay and Curve Wave. Bella has a sweet scent to it and the Curve Wave is not to sweet, but smells nice. These are the only two fragrances I really love!

Nice post, finding a good perfume is not a difficult job, but finding a perfume in antique bottle is quite difficult.
