Love Is In The Air... I Hope

This past winter, while out shopping, I fell in love. Everything was perfect. The sweet smell, the good feeling. I hoped it would last forever. Sadly though, not everyone felt the same as me. Meet my love, Viva La Juicy:

It is a perfect mixure of spice (but not too manly) and fruit (but not like candy), and I think it smells soft and just right. Momma HS and MS didn't think so, and both thought that it smelled like cigarette smoke. Not exactly what I was going for. But, I loved it, so I finished the bottle, and decided to find something new for the summer and our upcoming nuptuals.

I headed over to our "mall" (it has like 5 stores in it, maybe) during lunch, and after an hour of smelling every single perfume and every type of coffee bean, I still hadn't found one I loved. There is so much pressure behind finding the perfect perfume. It has to appeal to me, and MS, not smell like cigarette smoke, not cost my whole life's savings, and be the perfect combination of sweet and spice. And it has to live up to the expectations of our wedding day.

I was just about to leave and pop some asprin, when I saw the last remaining bottle that I hadn't yet smelled. After a small hesitation, I asked the *every growing annoyed* sales lady if I could smell it. Thank goodness I did! I LOVED it! So, meet my new (hopefully long lasting) love, Ed Hardy's Love & Luck (kind of an ironic name considering my search!):

And, I got a free tote!

(sorry, took the pic on my phone in the car!)

I'm pretty sure MS is going to love this too. It isn't as spicey, which I think may have been giving off the smokey smell. And I am praying that this will be my new smell. The smell that carries me through the summer, down the aisle, and joins me in my new life.

Have you ever had a perfume that you thought was wonderful but others didn't agree? What smell are going to wear on your wedding day?
