Unhappy Re: Please help me find the Scent of Green Bananas

Blast! Yes, unfortunately, I have a feeling that green bananas won't be a strong scent for some reason. Maybe something generically green would do the trick???

Lemmings can be cute. I'm thinking Angel and Chanel No. 5 :)

Re: Why was the vegan / vegetarian thread deleted?

That smacks of censorship under the guise of attempting lukewarm conversation.

fruity floral

Right now I think I have too many musky patchouli stuff. I'm looking for a fruity floral that's young and fresh, but not TOO juvenile. Suggestions?

What should I buy next? (Under $50 retail or discount)

My next buy was going to be Bulgari Omnia Crystalline, but I'd like to be adventurous and go a little more off the beaten path than that. Any recommendations for under $50 USD?

How much do you think a 5'5" female should weigh?

BMI charts aside. What, in your opinion, is "fat" and "skinny" for that height?
