Guest guest Posted August 6, 2008 Report Share Posted August 6, 2008 Hi Folks... I think it might be a fair statement that natural fragrances and Natural Perfumes are many times more personal to the individual, because natural essences don't have the shocking power many of the syns do.... Their chemistry with our own is more noticeable..... I get along with sandalwood and jasmine..... This was suggested by Elise..... To quote: How does skin affect the smell of your scents or ingredients? I know that I can't put osmanthus on my skin because it turns sour. I also can't use lavender in any deodorant preparation because it only makes it worse. On the other hand, I put a little bit of vetiver with co-distilled mitti on my wrist a while ago and it turned sweet and lovely. Oud reacts very well with my skin. Patchouli doesn't seem to change one way or the other. I used to have dark hair (nearly all grey now) and brown eyes and my skin has always tanned well. What have you noticed...? -- W.
