I want something that smells heavenly, mild & sweet.

hello ladies, I need your help here.
a girlfriend of mine needs a fragrance, and
she gave me these criterias;
"something not toxic, no alcohol, smells
heavenly, as mild as a baby's bum and as
sweet as a flower's nectar"
please recommend some (about 3 or 4) for
me...designers only. thanks!

Maybe something from the Philosophy line? "Omnia" is sweet and not exactly a sillage bomb. Technically it's discontinued but you can still find it at Fragrancenet. Those are the scents that come to mind immediately but I'll give it some more thought.

I'm not a lady, but I'll give some suggestions anyway:

- "Coco Mademoiselle": a mild and good combination of orange and rose, though not very sweet
- "Versace Woman": sweet raspberry combined with soft flowers. Some perfume vetarans might find this boring. But I think it smells appealing. And if your friend is not a perfume person (yet), then this might be the right thing for her.
- "Jour d'Hermès": fresh citrus + soft flowers + smooth & clean musk in the dry down. It's not sweet but it's very mild. Hermès can be difficult to find, except online...

PS. I see you're from Nigeria. That's cool, this forum is really international! What perfumes do women and men from your country generally like? I heard that people from different parts of the world like different fragrances.

From the very affordable to the very expensive, these are three of my faves that I would describe that way. Mind you, I don't own the third one, but hope to someday.

"Grain de Soleil"

"Vanille Exquise"

"Lyric Woman"

1. Muschio- Santa Maria Novella (Powdery, gentle)
2. Musc Bleu- IL Profvmo- (Ylang, clean musk, geranium)
3. Lann- Ael- Lostmarch (Milk, vanilla, buckwheat cereal, baked apple)
4. Perfect Veil- Sarah Horowitz
5. Cashmere Mist- Donna Karan
