Suggestions for fragrance, for those who are allergic

I'm allergic to florals, and anything strongly scented. Any suggestions from gals having the same problem? What do you use? Mary MOB

philosophy Amazing Grace, Pure Grace, and Baby Grace are great scents for allergy sufferers!

Just very clean smells... not strong at all.

Re: Suggestions for fragrance, for those who are allergic

i have the worst allergies...
i wear a body spray that smells like grapefruit.
it's not floral or very strong at all and people compliment me on it all the time...
usually they can't tell what the smell is but it's a familiar one and it's sort of sweet but not in a headache giving kind of way...

okay i'm rambling...

let's see...
i can also wear Pleasures and Tommy Girl and JLo's Glo
but only like 1 spritz at a time...

i find that fruity body sprays work best for my allergies but i know a lot of people don't think they are 'formal enough' scents...

Kerri, thanks for those suggestions! Years ago, Oprah said she wore a grapefruit fragrance that everyone loved. Does anyone know what it's called? Mary MOB

i have no idea what oprah wore... but... i get mine at walmart so i'm sure it's not the same stuff.


it's called...
Bodycology
Sparkling Grapefruit
body mist

grapefruit is supposed to be a refreshing scent and like give you energy or something...

the back of the bottle says...
the sweet refreshing scent of fresh grapefruit is known to dispel fatigue and irritablity leaving you with new energy and lightness of spirit

You should also try Anna Sui's Sui Dreams. It is very light. I've bought it at Sephora in the past. HTH

Hi Mary, I'm allergic to most fragrances too, I even start to get sick to my stomach walking through Macys perfume dept.....so I wear Jovan Musk. It can be bought in any rite aid, duane reade, etc. It cost just 13.95 or less and I never know i have it on. Plus I always get complimented on it Try it you may like it. Oh I buy the one that is out of the box with the orange cap.

I can't wear regular perfume either - I get dizzy and nauseous! Even if DH puts on too much cologne by mistake, I start getting a headache!

I wear the sprays by Victorias Secret. They have nice scents, are not too strong, and I can wear them all day or even refresh midday and it's great!
