Apostle 01-08-2008, 09:19 AM Go with whichever one you can get for $3 a gallon. Nothing says "thinking about you" like a jug of par-fumé
SideOfBacon 01-08-2008, 09:21 AM love the smell of this on my girl

never smelled the burberrys myself.. so cant give input on that..
Pink Flea 01-08-2008, 09:57 AM Burberry sucks!! (those on my myspace know how much I think Burberry sucks)... Get her Love Spell from Victoria Secret or Happy by Clinique.
RedSheDevil 01-08-2008, 10:13 AM Just get her something from a department store and ask them to include a gift receipt. This way if she doesn't like the new choice, she can return it for something else.
Origins Ginger Essence is one of my all-time faves if you're looking for something new.

hough2696 01-08-2008, 10:54 AM Don't ask me....I like the smell of gasoline and charcoal

Heh! You would like using my snowblower then ... you come in from clearing snow and smell like exhaust!! Wonder if I could market that ... $5 to clear my driveway and smell "like fresh exhaust"
hough2696 01-08-2008, 11:06 AM Yeah, I'd do it.
RedSheDevil 01-08-2008, 11:11 AM Yeah, I'd do it.
NT already vouched ("vogued" for those of us who were around for one of the funniest threads ever) for you, so you can use it FREE OF CHARGE! Mebbe you could help with the marketing of this new business venture ;)

That's your best bet. I did that with my ex and he ended up not liking my choice so he exchanged it for a better one that we both liked. :)

polo blue FTW! :nod:
Morgan 01-08-2008, 05:21 PM Polo black ftmfw! yummy.
armani aqua di gio on a guy is like, "hi, please come rape me now!"
As far as girls: How old is this friend? When i was younger is was all about Tommy hilfiger "Tommy Girl" and Clinique Happy.
Around 18/19 i started wearing Very Sexy for her by Victoria Secret. There are like 3 now, but just the plain "for her" is the best IMO. I have also really grown to like Victoria Secret "Pink" My roomate wears it and i really like it now.
I also now wear Abercombie 8. LOVE it! It's def. awesome if she's a preppy kinda girl. yum
As far as burberry stuff...don't get britt. it smells like ickyness.
Jethro Tull 01-08-2008, 09:55 PM If you like the smell of a French whore, get Tabu.
Morgan 01-08-2008, 11:36 PM my roomate says burberry touch rocks
Like Whoa 01-08-2008, 11:36 PM hmmm i like french whores no but seriously shes 25 and i googled opinions on burberry lol. i think theres a lot of good feedback on "burberry london" i dont know, i dont do perfums or colognes. i've had the same 2 colognes for the past 5 years polo and nautica the hard to find green bottle.
Atilla 01-08-2008, 11:44 PM just throwing it in there, IMHO i like stella mccartney, in the purple bottle. :sweatdrop
burberry is a lil' 'over-powering' for me
but if all else fails - gift card is FTW
Morgan 01-09-2008, 12:06 AM gift cards are too impersonal. i think tey suck if its coming from somebody who is "more than just a friend"
tiggerlee 01-09-2008, 12:09 AM Polo black ftmfw! yummy.
Polo Double Black is by far better imo. If you wanna, you can come over sometime and smell me. :fingersx:
I also now wear Abercombie 8. LOVE it! It's def. awesome if she's a preppy kinda girl. yum
My g/f wears 8. Hot stuff!!! I just picked up some A/F Fierce for myself. It's pretty good stuff if you're a guy.:D:
KpaBap 01-09-2008, 12:09 AM Escape by Calvin Klein
It's been around for ages and is godly.
Burberry anything strikes me as overpriced overmarketed ugly garbage. But to each his own...
TrochoidMagic 01-09-2008, 03:31 AM very sexy by victoria secret. its such a turn on smelling that on a girl.
my girl had it. and when her friend wears it...damn, thats hot.
really good scent imo. do they put pheromones in that thing?
Pink Flea 01-09-2008, 11:33 AM I use to like very sexy until a friend of mine with halitosis wore it all the time.. Now the smell of it reminds me of her stank ass breath!
Pink Flea 01-09-2008, 11:34 AM just throwing it in there, IMHO i like stella mccartney, in the purple bottle. :sweatdrop

YES!! Stella rawks..... a million times better than burberry... Way classier too!!
Leesha 01-09-2008, 11:37 AM Versace perfume...really nice....
photo chick 01-15-2008, 12:08 AM if it's the newest burberry scent, it's probably burberry london.
http://www.sephora.com/browse/product.jhtml?id=P136025&categoryId=S22222&shouldPaginate=true
it's a floral scent that lasts quite a while. and like what most people said, just save the receipt to make sure your friend can exchange it if she doesn't like it. good luck!
ChattyRX8 01-15-2008, 12:12 AM Dolce & Gabana Light Blue... nothing else needs to be said!
rhadad 01-16-2008, 11:13 PM Dolce & Gabana Light Blue looks nice...
photo chick 01-16-2008, 11:17 PM betsey johnson is also a really good one. smells great, kind of 'flirty'. lasts a long time. cool packaging.
