For those of you that wear perfume or cologne, do you wear a lot of different scents or stick to just one?

I have worn the same scent for about 8 years now and I just wondered if others stick with the same scent or have a few that they rotate with.

I just started using essential oils and the sent changes with my needs. If it’s a headache, then it’s peppermint. If I’m stressed, it’s lavender ( or if I’m really stressed it’s frankincense or patchouli.) If I am hanging around with my grand kids and they have snotty noses, it’s orange and cinnamon. If my muscles ache it might be eucalyptus or peppermint.
I more or less stick with the same one, until I fancy a change. You could say I have common scents! ;¬}
I usually have just a few, one for warm weather and one for cooler times. My irritation has been my longtime favorite perfume being discontinued some years back and I’ve had a hard time finding a replacement I like as well.
I rotate. I use this honey scented soap and lotion combo sometimes, other times I have a cotton candy spritz that practically smells edible, and everyone compliments me on. Recently I’ve been wearing Paris Amour from Bath & Body Works. I change it up a lot.
I have a few. Summer/Winter.
Zensky, by Faberg’e, spicey yet sassy.
Oh stop. Go on. No stop.
Did you notice my perfume question to the right from two years ago?
I wear perfume like I wear makeup. Sometimes I don’t wear any, but when I do, what I wear depends on my mood. Am I feeling soft and feminine today? I’ll wear Flora by Gucci. Spicy? Tommy Girl Jeans. Sprightly? Versace Versense. (Plus, I really like how all the fragrances look on the mirrored surface of the vintage tray I have on my dresser.)
@zensky Yes, and I went back and re-read them. Made me sad for the good old Flutherer’s that are missing.
I have about 7 perfumes. I chose one based on my mood, what I’m wearing, what my intentions for the day or night are, the weather, and where I’m going. I wear perfume almost daily.
I also wear different perfumes according to my mood
I’ve found a scent I like and I stick to it.
I have three that I switch around depending on my mood.
I have my fav every day cologne and break out Musk for those special moments! ;)
I like and wear only one cologne——Antaeus by Chanel. I find many men’s colognes either too “citrusy” or “flowery”, like the colognes a lot of young men and older teenagers wear. I like Antaeus because it has a nice woody, musky scent, with just a hint of citrus and patchouli——a more mature scent so to speak.

@chyna I know, eh? I hate reading old q’s and missing the old-timers.
I prefer my own general musk.
I’m in the “signature scent” camp—I wore Este Lauder’s White Linen for many years, and only in the past few years have I begun to experiement with other fragrances. I’ve tried a few, and I keep coming back to Ralph Lauren’s Romance. I like the lighter scents. I need to check out that Zensky ;-)
I tend to wear one, but I’ll occasionally use another based on which I happen to like more that day, or if I’m out, which I actually have.
It’s also more practical to just use one because perfume tends to be expensive and I don’t usually have more than one favourite in my posession at a time.
