Joy is the quintessential spring or summer fragrance for this femme. Interesting list.

But I believe that what ever you're happy wearing during the winter is a good winter scent, no matter what it is. For me, I bring out "bigger" scents in the winter, mostly because summer heat amplifies scent so much that some orientals, for instance, could trigger a migraine. But your body, climate, or taste might be completely different. Tomato? That sounds really intriguing! I love the smell of tomato plants.

I have it and wear it over a layer of Perlier Olivarium body products because it was given as a gift and I wanted to wear it, but over the Olivarium is the only way I can stand it. I am used to florals and am not used to wearing anything you can eat except honey :-). But, when layer the Chantal Thomass EDP over the Olivarium, I can smell the cranberry in it more (I think it has tomato in it, too). It smells "warmer" to me and more seductive, but not in a flowery way, if that makes any sense. Plus, I looove the bottle with the black garter around it. Again, still learning about fragrances. Please let me know your thoughts. Thanks! Would you all consider Chantal Thomass EDP a winter scent?

I sure know what you mean about "my people." It's the best feeling, being among men and women who have the same intensely meaningful relationship with their senses!! We are NOT freaks after all! For cold, dark, blustery weather, I love my Feminite du Bois. It's deep and resonant, cozy and scrumptiously cedarwoody -- a real comfort scent with a lot of style. Hello, Angela and everybody.

Joy is more about roses and jasmine. It's just so lush and deep that I like it with rain. As for less-niche fragrances, there are a few old ones that are moody and dark forest-y and that are pretty inexpensive at online discounters. Jacomo Silences is a good example.

I haven't tried Joy and Ormande Woman but am really interested when you say they remind you of wet grass tree bark, cos I really love green grassy notes, just wonder if there's other less-niche fragrances that you like and are of the same category?
