On Oprah's "Favourite Things" program, she gave everyone "Lovely" perfume by Sarah Jessica Parker. I usually like the fragrances that Oprah reccommends, and I'm hard to please, as many fragrances give me headaches.

My older DS bought me the cologne and body cream for Christmas. It is 'heavenly'! Nice and light, but very feminine. I wore it to a party, and even a teen-aged boy told me that I smelled "nice".

You know, after I saw Sarah's fragrance on Oprah, I had to go out and smell it. LOL I didn't like it at all either. When the lady first gave me a spritz of it, I did like it. She told me to go walk around the mall for 10 minutes and smell it again because it will change. It sure did and I didn't like it at all. Is heavenly made be her too?? Wonder which one I tried???

I thought Hol meant that the smell of it was heavenly. Maybe I interpreted it incorrectly?

Victoria's Secret makes a Dream Angels scent called *Heavenly*, I wear it often. I've never smelled SJP's *Lovely*, so I can't compare.

I got a number of new fragrances in 2005 -

*Burberry Brit*
*Black* by Kenneth Cole (love this one!)
*Obsession* by Calvin Klein (old scent but DH loves it)
*Euphoria* by Calvin Klein(Love this one too!)
*Cashmere Mist* by Donna Karan

I normally wear *White Diamonds* and *Heavenly*, and sometimes *Rapture* by Victoria's Secret or *Paloma Picasso* in cooler weather.

Yes, I have *cool* weather and *warm* weather fragrances! LOL

Hol, what does *Lovely* compare to??

I haven't smelled "lovely" before, but after I saw it on Oprah I put it on my list to "test". Haven't been anywhere to test it yet though! I'm glad you like it Hol

Most perfumes give me headaches or make me feel ill. I'm also very picky about what scents I wear. A couple years ago I was waiting in line in the Origins store in our mall to buy Eve a gift certificate. I tried their "Ginger Essence" and immediately loved the smell! "Hmpf," I thought, "I'll probably get a headache." I continued shopping and was pleasantly surprised that this perfume didn't bother me. Now Ginger Essence is my favorite scent but I also like Origin's other perfumes, especially Fret Not. (Karen, I like Fret Not during summer months!)

LOL, your right. Now that I re-read it that is what she said. I don't know what I read this morning. LOL Maybe it was before I had enough coffee in me. LOL Anyway, glad you liked it, but it wasn't for me at all.

My dh gave me Lovely for XMas, too. I also saw it on the Oprah show. I smelled it one day when I was out shopping. I love it. To me it is nice and light. I don't wear most perfumes for they too give me headaches. This one is very nice, for me anyway.
