Just a thought, but doesn't perfume attract mosquitoes? I was actually planning on leaving mine at home because of that fact (plus, mosquitoes LOVE me to begin with).

That being said... don't laugh... Off! insect repellent comes in a pretty nice "tropical fresh" scent (part of their FamilyCare/Skintastic line). Its melony/tropical. I wouldn't call it "perfume"... but it's really not bad. And, frankly, anything I can do to avoid a bite...

But, for light and fresh I highly recommend Bulgari's Tea collection (white is my fave), and the Issy Miyake is nice for the boys.

Also try Hanae Mori Butterflys... its my everyday scent and I love it! Light and yet noticeable - has a lot of vanilla undertones too. My FI loves it, but I'm planning on wearing something different for the wedding - Lancome 2000 et une Roses. Its a discontinues scent that I used to love, and I managed to snag a bottle on Ebay! So psyched! Its very different from my norm, so I think FI will remember it.

I love the ide of something different, there are lots of threads that discuss this previously - do a search for signature scent. I still haven't found mine though....

Yup, I think you've changed my thinking on this too. I'd never even considered a new scent. FSIL got me Valentino Rock n Rose & FI Prada for xmas. We haven't opened them yet & I'm thinking we'll save those for the wedding. Thanks for the idea!

Other than that my everyday scents are Eternity Moment or DKNY Be Delicious. Since you all suggest it, I think I'm gonna check out Light Blue!

I love this idea. I never eally gave it much thought, but another thing on the "to do" list now, is buy new scents!!! Thanks for the great idea and suggestions!

We both got a new scent for the wedding, and didn't wear it/smell it on eachother until we met at the alter. Now, every time he wears it I am instantly transported back to that moment. It's like a little gift every time he puts it on...haha They say scents evoke the strongest memories.... Mine was Vera Wang, the orginal wedding scent (she has like 4 I think). Hubby wore L'Homme by Yves St. Laurant. Both very light and happy scents. Good luck!

I never thought of it that way...I might have to on a wedding day perfume hunt now...
