Scent Sense (Part 1)

Is it true that couples who sprays together stays together?
- by New Woman 004
We know our blokes are (Visa) card-carrying metrosexuals these days, but are we really cool with the idea of them smelling like us? YES! Years ago it may have been kitsch to wear matching scents, but today it's all about the complementary ingredients in our coordinated colognes! Oh, and the bottles look so cute together in the bathroom...

Best Friends
Probably high school sweethearts and definately best mates, this couple is always smiling, laughing and having fun.
HIS: Clinique Happy for men, $60
Blokey without being too gron up, it's got a soapy, clean fresh feel - mandarin, lime and grapefruit, balanced with the watery freshness of sea air.
HER: Clinique, Happy $52
She's positive and perky, so the ruby red grapefruit, bergamot and pretty petal scent appeal to her upbeat nature.
Why they work
The farmiliar, fresh scent of citrus in both scents will remind them of each other - and they couldn't imagine it any other way!

The Dynamic Duo
Up at 6am on Sunday for an hour's jog, these two love the rugged, great outdoors...
HIS: DKNY Be Delicious Men, $87
Smells like an appletini! Coffee's been added to the mix of tart and ripe apple... and it reminds her of a farm in a bottle.
HER: DKNY Be Delicious, $108
Like an apple plucked straight from the tree, it's juicy, sweet, innocent and happy rolled into one. Apple, cucumber and grapefruit are to blame - with hints of rose and violet for that farm-fresh feeling!
Why the work
Dreaming of escaping to the country, the morning fresh scent of apples continues to inspire them.

The Bride & Groom
The two who 'just know' they'll be together forever - and are about to tie the knot to prove it!
HIS: Vera Wang For Men, $125
Crisp green mandrin leaf, nutmeg, leather and warm tobacco - it's so irresistible she'll be racing down the aisle.
HER: Vera Wang, $120
Like an elegant bridal bouquet of Bulgarian rose and gardenia, with a romantic edge thanks to sheer musk - fit for a princess!
Why they work
Utterly unforgettable, both scents are so distinct they'll have the power to evoke emotional memories for one another. By a bridal designer no less - who else could capture the essence of the big day?

The First Daters
Kind of shy, and on their best behaviour - full of promise and hoping for the best!
HIS: Ralph Lauren Romance Silver, $96
The fresh cabernet grapes and crushed leaves mixed with patchouli remind her of something she'd like to get to know a lot better...
HER: Ralph Lauren Romance, $66
Not unlike a bubbly glass of champange - fun, sweet and giggly! Like the sweet little posy he might pluck from the neighbour's garden for her.
Why they work
Both scents spark interest to make them lean in a little closer to take another whiff.. and make the first move!

Big Flirts
A wink here and there, constant hand holding and eyes only for each other - these two are naughty, fun and flirty!
HIS: Thierry Mulger A Men, $86
She'll crave the smell of this on him - like the icing on a cake, a hint of peppermint and coffee makes it like a tasty treat.
HER: Thierry Mugler Angel, $142
It's sweet and secy - a drizzle of honey, a splash of chocolate and sticky sweet caramel are enough to make him melt...
Why they work
Like kids in a candy store, the melt-in-your-mouth caramel and chocolate in both scents make them constantly want more of each other.

Soul Mates
They're the couple who are so alike they talk the same, have a similar style and finish each other's sentences.
HIS: Marc Jacobs Men, $80
Like his classic white shirt, he loves it as much as she does - a familiar homey scent thanks to musk and spices, enhanced with aphrodisiacs fis and patchoili.
HER: Marc Jacobs Woman, $95
A lush, rich gardenia blend that can go from being innocently sweet to rich, sensual and sexy in seconds.
Why they work
They'll love the familarity of their signature scents, and appreciate the way both scents can be worn as a casual or a sensual scent.

That's it for now... there's anothe six perfume set.. it'll be online tomorrow (hopefully).. *off to uni now for group meeting!
