Oooooh. It seems like the scents that work best with the way I already smell are warm or earthy scents, with the occasional herbal or citrus. I can enjoy sweet or floral smells, even the occasional perfume smells, but they just don't really work on me as often.
My favorite smells usually include amber, sandalwood... coconut, black currant, fig. I also enjoy lemon, bergamot, lemongrass, and sage smells. I love the smell of eucalyptus, but more for aromatherapy and not as a personal scent. Floral scents I will make an occasional exception for: rose, jasmine, honeysuckle, gardenia.
And I do have one bottle of perfume that I've had since high school. Chance by Channel. It has some good olfactic associations, and I spray some in the air and walk through it occasionally. Sprayed on directly and immediately after, it's a bit much. But after it's settled, it's pleasant.
So.... I guess Oriental and Fresh scents. That's me.
