Light and refreshing, that’s how summer should smell like! Nothing too bold or powerful. Try these fragrances that range from citrus, to floral, and even woody.
MOSCHINO I LOVE LOVE
I love this citrus scent. It�s very young and playful. It does not last the whole day, though, so I usually carry it in my bag. 100 ml, P4150. 50 ml, P3150.
Available at Rustan’s, SM Department Store, Robinsons Department Store, The Landmark, and other leading department stores.
ANGEL SCHLESSER FEMME
“Fresh elegance in a bottle” is how I would describe this Spanish designer fragrance. I love the minimalist package, and it is perfect for the no-frills modern woman. The scent lasts a long time on the skin. 100 ml, P3450. 50 ml, P2650. 30 ml, P1750.
Available at Rustan’s Department Store.
NINA FRAGRANCES
Nina in Water Affair (green) and Nina in Sweet Sparkle (pink) are both sweet-scented. The former has a citrus note, while the latter is more floral. According to creator Nina Tan, Nina Fragrances are manufactured locally, but are made with Swiss perfume oils. They come in beautiful boxes, and with an affordable price, so they make perfect gifts! Nina Fragances, P375 each (Eau de Toilette, 70 ml bottle).
�
Available at GRAXIE, 2/F Archaeology, Power Plant Mall.
SATSUMA COLLECTION from The Body Shop
I am packing these to the beach! I first smelled Satsuma on a colleague during a meeting. It was as if someone had peeled an orange in the room. Satsuma, after all, is another name for Mandarin oranges, or �ponkan�. Satsuma collection comes in Shower Gel (P295), Body Lotion (P595), and Perfume Oil (P795). You can use one, or layer all for a longer lasting scent.
Available at The Body Shop outlets.
MORGAN SWEET PARADISE
This fruity-floral scent is for the hip and trendy gal. It is sweet and feminine, but not overwhelming. Perfect for an evening date! 100 ml, P2950. 60 ml, P2150. 40 ml, P1600.
Available at Rustan�s, SM, Robinsons, The Landmark, Crossings, and Cinderella Department Stores

April 30th, 2007 at 6:20 pm
where else can i find nina frangrances aside from powerplant mall?
April 30th, 2007 at 9:44 pm
karlyn, magkano yung eclat by lanvin, more or less..?
April 30th, 2007 at 10:28 pm
hi kenneth! eclat by lanvin more or less costs 4,500-5,000 =)
to share… love elibeth arden green tea and elizabeth arden revitalize, l’ occitane lemmon scent and magnolia & d&g light blue and =)
fahrenheit by dior for men is definitely a head turner =)
April 30th, 2007 at 11:11 pm
how do you pronounce eclat?=D
May 1st, 2007 at 12:16 am
You can call Nina Tan at 09189371541. Her scents are really good and they last long. I’ve been buying her stuff since last year
May 1st, 2007 at 1:59 am
Body Shop body washes increased prices. Satsuma is now priced at 395.
May 1st, 2007 at 6:12 am
yeah. I get my stuffs from her too. her prices are almost half the mall’s prices. Authentic talaga.
May 1st, 2007 at 11:32 am
how much are paris hiltons pefumes?
May 1st, 2007 at 2:59 pm
Hi peaches!
Ayos lang if I email your friend kahit di niya ako kilala? Heehee 
May 1st, 2007 at 3:06 pm
BTW, I agree with karlyn, mabango nga ang Lanvin Eclat! Very refreshing ang scent, hindi masakit sa ulo.
I also love D&G Light Blue.
May 1st, 2007 at 8:29 pm
As a general rule, the French don’t pronounce the last consonant. So eclat is sais as ek-la.
May 1st, 2007 at 10:45 pm
bought the nina in water affair, its very affordable and the scent is very pleasing to my body chemistry =)
May 2nd, 2007 at 12:35 am
Hi tina! go ahead, you e-mail her..even her bosses get stuff from her especially gucci and bvlgari..half priced..=)
Hi dianne!Paris hilton scents’ are priced 1900..100ml..from my friend ha..i think they’re more or less 3k in malls..
May 2nd, 2007 at 3:44 am
Lanvin is a good brand! im crazy over burberry and RL perfumes too.
Peaches: How much does bvlgari costs? I also have a friend that sells authentic perfumes from US but i think it’s still too pricey..
May 2nd, 2007 at 9:09 am
1. Bergamot by The Body Shop
2. Gap Heaven
3. Carriere by Gendarme ==>> a new discovery, it really smells fresh ‘n light
May 2nd, 2007 at 9:43 am
Thanks Ces for answering my question, kinda embarrassing if i ask for that perfume and my pronunciation is wrong lol…=D
May 2nd, 2007 at 12:21 pm
can somepone pls verify the email ad of scentsforless? i sent an email kanina pero it bounced back. thanks.
May 2nd, 2007 at 12:58 pm
I usually buy from Adam’s or Criselda’s. It’s a lot cheaper to buy there than from the department stores.
May 2nd, 2007 at 1:49 pm
i sent an email and it bounced back too.
May 2nd, 2007 at 1:52 pm
hi teeny do you have an idea how much is the fahrenheit by dior for men in 100ml?
and can anyone suggest great scents for men?
or any idea what to give for my man’s birthday gift? thanks!!!
May 2nd, 2007 at 5:04 pm
hi liz, i would suggest Armani Code for Men and Chanel Allure Homme Sport for more sporty kind of man.
my personal favorite for my husband is his all-time favorite Aqua Di Gio, Givenchy pour homme, and Issey Miyake.
for woman i suggest bvlgari rose essentialle, dolce and gabbana the one, CK Euphoria Blossom, and Escada Sunset Heat for Woman. Have tried them all and works well with me plus their long lasting scent.
May 2nd, 2007 at 8:02 pm
hi misty I agree with aqua di gio and issy miyake very yummy!
hi liz! I think the small farenheit in duty free is $36 more or less I think, my sister bought one for her boyfriend i think thats the price range…
=)
May 2nd, 2007 at 11:08 pm
me too!!! i got both the nina in water affair and sweet sparkle!!! they really smell nice! i wear the water affair scent during the day while the sweet sparkle naman i use for saturday nights!!
they also come in cute boxes 
May 2nd, 2007 at 11:50 pm
i got the sweet sparkle with the cute pink box with stripes
i like the nina scent of sweet sparkle more 
May 3rd, 2007 at 2:00 am
For real peaches? Gee, huge savings huh. Can i ask for her contact numbers? Big thanks! Perfect gift for mother’s day.
Guys, what scents do you suggest for moms?
May 3rd, 2007 at 10:42 am
misty, peaches and teeny..thanks..
yeah, i agree.i xoxo heart issey miyake!
May 3rd, 2007 at 1:17 pm
how much is the lanvin eclat? thanks.
May 3rd, 2007 at 3:43 pm
SummerCraze: may i suggest Elizabeth Arden: arden beauty for that sophisticated and sensible moms. Davidoff Echo Woman for that sweet, young and young-at-heart moms. D&G The One for glamorous yet playful moms.
i got my mom the arden beauty and she loves the scent appropriate to her age. it’s not so intoxicating. got my self the davidoff echo woman which i like for its sweet scent of rose and suitable for my age as a young mom. then my husband got me d&g The One which i so looove for its glamorous scent that can make you serious in one hand and playful on the other hand.
tried and tested, ‘ika nga. ;-D
May 3rd, 2007 at 4:32 pm
hi kenneth i got mine at 3500. sa malls mahal eh
May 3rd, 2007 at 4:37 pm
anong scent ng D&G the one?
May 3rd, 2007 at 8:20 pm
D&G The One smells sexy, sweet and oriental floral. It’s not so intoxicating or strong. It’s Eau de Parfume kaya it lasts longer than D&G Light Blue EDT. i got lots of comment when i passed by with question, what parfume are u wearing? just reply with “The One” and smile. ;-D
May 3rd, 2007 at 11:32 pm
the one huh..Nice one misty! cge, will try that scent..=)
May 4th, 2007 at 3:27 am
last christmas I get Satsuma when I get it I luv the smell of it lyk I was some where at the beach … luv thing that body shop ….
May 4th, 2007 at 4:51 am
Viktor & Rolf Flower Bomb for summer! smells really like a bomb of fresh floral scent on you and last all day/night. Even after you take a bath!As for men Andidote by Victor & Rolf.
May 4th, 2007 at 11:45 am
Thanks peaches! Sige will inquire.
May 5th, 2007 at 10:44 am

Peaches! thanks for the tip! i already got bvlgari and burberry..in their biggest bottles..=) can’t believe that i just got them for less than a price of 1 bottle in malls..next stop would be misty’s d&g the one..looking forward already..=)
May 8th, 2007 at 2:46 am
hI …
survey lang po ano mas mabango D&G light blue or Moschino I LOVE LOVE?..
Thanks..
need feedback asap.
May 8th, 2007 at 4:08 am
For me, light blue..All time fave..Kaya lang, one time I partied at a known gimmick place, halos magkakaamoy lahat ng gurls..parang 1 lang perfume ng lahat..yep, and that’ll be D&G light blue..
May 8th, 2007 at 5:53 am
I agree with karlyn…super bango talaga ng eclat by lanvin…that’s what i’ve been using for a year. til now, di pa rin ako nagsasawa!
i also like D & G light blue, bvlgury omnia, elizabeth arden green tea, estee lauder pleasures and glamorous.
May 8th, 2007 at 8:28 am
D&G light blue is the best perfume for women accdng to mens survey!
May 8th, 2007 at 5:19 pm
mabango rin yung dkny be delicious and clean from rustans.
May 8th, 2007 at 11:43 pm
i love babydoll by ysl. super sweet smelling!luv luv luv it!
May 10th, 2007 at 10:27 am
Hi! Authentic talaga yung sa scents for less? Coz i bought sa ebay before sa iba tapos un mga greenhills type pala…kaya pala cheaper =(
May 10th, 2007 at 2:52 pm
I love D&G light blue! Been using it for over a year. However, a lot of women are becoming fond of it kaya the smell is becoming so generic.
If you’re the sporty type, try Adidas Moves for HER. Its light and citrusy, good for day use. And it smells great when you perspire!
The Adidas Moves for HIM is also perfect for your guy!
May 10th, 2007 at 8:36 pm
hi.. have any of you tried beyond paradise from estee lauder.. bango nya and pag-naging sweaty ka lalo mo syang naaamoy.. love it..
May 10th, 2007 at 11:20 pm
Hi Issah!yepyep, 100% authentic..just like those which are being offered in malls..Bvlgaris are made from italy, guccis are from france, lacostes are from UK..bought them all=)definitely not the same as those in greenhills..some are made in CA, USA..just like Jessica McClintock (will buy that for my mom, this coming mom’s day..=>)
May 10th, 2007 at 11:22 pm
BTW issah, how much did you pay for the perfumes in ebay?they claimed that they were authentic?were’nt you able to get your money back?
May 15th, 2007 at 12:20 pm
for scent for less - as in same po ba to w/ the stores? as in bottle & box?
May 15th, 2007 at 9:23 pm
Hi! Just wanna ask if you would know how much is the Fahrenheit for men..for the 3.4 or 6.8 oz thanks so much!
May 18th, 2007 at 3:53 pm
Nope peaches wasn’t able to get my money back kasi unregistered na un user =(
May 19th, 2007 at 11:42 am
ooh..i love moschino i love i love but the scent does not last long.
May 23rd, 2007 at 9:01 am
Hi! I’d like to know where I can buy Life by Esprit. I saw it in Cosmo Mag, and it costs more or less P500. I checked some Esprit Boutiques, but I can’t find their perfume line…Tnx in advance for the info!
May 23rd, 2007 at 4:55 pm
melanie sa watsons madaming esprit. i bought the D and G “the one”.im kinda diasppointed with the scent… pang lola scent pala siya.
May 24th, 2007 at 5:54 am
tnx karlyn! I’ll check that out to know if the scent is good, if it does, good catch.Ü
May 24th, 2007 at 6:18 am
Melanie:try also sm department stores..the scent is good but not quite lasting though..=)
Karlyn:Try new Lacoste Touch of Spring..so light..so yummy..=) it was just launched last week I think..
May 25th, 2007 at 6:25 pm
Hi. I’m a big fan of D&G Light Blue and I’m disappointed na generic na siya. So I’m thinking of switching to Nina Ricci Apple. I saw it in Cosmo. What do you guys think bout the scent?
Scentsforless, do you have this and how much?
May 25th, 2007 at 6:31 pm
Winkiedo, Adam’s and Criselda’s, yun ba yung sa mga tiangge like sa gold crest sa glorietta? Were the perfumes you bought authentic? I wanted to buy there kc cheaper, but I’m scared na baka may halo na, or something.
May 27th, 2007 at 6:34 pm
I will. Thanks! =)
May 27th, 2007 at 7:46 pm
is adam’s and criselda’s near avon or rusty lopez in glorietta?i dont wanna go back there..coz i was just asking if their perfumes are really authentic and I think the staff got pissed off and the look on her face!goodness!hello?!i was just asking politely and I just wanna make sure as well..but oh well, theirs are bit pricey though..i asked a certain brand of perfume and its only P200 cheaper compared to the mall price..
May 31st, 2007 at 10:08 am
know what, there used to be warehouse sales around makati… usually at paseo center… i’m waiting for it. bagsak presyo talaga… up to 70%… i bought a bottle of incanto charms for just how much. and then their burberry classic was just 1500, 100ml. too bad wala pang balita. does anyone know about these sales? last one was in feb… sana magkaron uli.
May 31st, 2007 at 10:12 am
saka yung bodega sales ng rustan’s!!! last year twice yun, bakit ngyon wala pa rin?!
June 2nd, 2007 at 7:05 pm
peaches, iba yata yun kasi cheaper talaga yung napagtanungan ko. Like Pleasures for men, 100ml is around 2,500. I was referring to the stalls dun sa baba, inside Gold Crest, and yung stall in City Walk, near Timezone right after the one selling hair accessories. Glorietta pa din. I keep going there, and asking them but never bought pa. I don’t know if kilala na yung face ko, but they never made a face nor a comment or baka pagtalikod ko lang… hehe…
June 2nd, 2007 at 8:41 pm
Haha!Funny ka skye!just make sure that theirs are really authentic if ever you’ll buy..sayang naman money if ever..
what brands are you keep asking them btw?im trying to try another brands..
June 4th, 2007 at 12:14 pm
DKNY be apple delicious is very good at night time and paris hilton’s just love me for women is so refreshing….and escada pacific paradise is just so perfect for our tropical island…Ü Wearing perfumes will really uplift your spirit!!!
June 6th, 2007 at 7:51 pm
Hi, peaches. Hehehe… Incanto Charms, D&G, Kenzo. They have Light Blue 30 ml for 1,500 lang, and I’m really getting tempted to try and see if their perfumes are authentic. I don’t know anyone who has bought there kasi, e. So I really don’t have any feed backs about their perfumes.
June 8th, 2007 at 11:39 am
Skye..Yeah, its a bit scary to buy stuffs which are not guaranteed authentic..Haven’t heard any feedbacks from that store though..
June 22nd, 2007 at 11:05 am
Try “Clean Ultimate” or other clean scents…available only at rustans essences….Promise you will really smell clean and fresh! Ranges from 3k++ to 4k++
June 23rd, 2007 at 1:16 pm
