Re: "Fine lady" - scents?

Being "a lady" varies among time and culture, not only in between individual perceptions, hope that's clear while I'm replying... so,

Agreed! Otherwise she wouldn't be a lady

Re: "Fine lady" - scents?

I have a huge sweet tooth, but when I want to be taken more seriously or am dressed for a classy night out, I opt for http://fimgs.net/images/perfume/m.53.jpg Guerlain Shalimar or http://fimgs.net/images/perfume/m.609.jpg Chanel Coco.  They still have the sweetness that I love, but are balanced out with more sophisticated notes.

Re: "Fine lady" - scents?

According to my imagination: no matter what her age, a fine lady is full of poise, grace, kindness and charm with a bit of restraint and exhudes a quiet confidence that makes other women feel like awkwark, ugly ducklings.  tongue

She looks well-put together, knows how to reveal just enough (but never too much) skin to make mens' minds race and she never overapplies her perfume!

I mostly associate "fine ladies" with chypre, some leathers, aldehydes, white florals and rose perfumes; vanillas and orientals only in the bedroom and worn über close to the skin! Here's a little mix of what I imagine they could wear:
