The Oregon coast, up in the foothills. That pine, ocean scent is so amazing to me. I'd love to smell like it.

I like musk, woodsy scents.
I used to mix perfume oils of patchouli, musk and a bit of black narcissus. It was my scent and everyone knew it as mine alone. Alas, my source for black narcissus dried up and I have searched the world over for it, but to no avail. One has to be very careful with patchouli though-it can be overpowering even in tiny amounts.

I'm experimenting with other combinations now looking for another signature scent. Since carrier oils are usually good for your hair (jojoba) I take a tiny drop and rub it into my hair before I go out.

Have you ever found something that smelled like that? That and pretty much any Oregon forest would be great things to smell like.

I voted floral. I can narrow that down to one particular flower: gardenia. My favorite scent ever. I wouldn't mind if it were blended with another EO or two, but anything predominantly gardenia scented gets thumbs up from me!

My go to scent is BPAL's Coyote. If I get too much on my fingers I ALWAYS run them through my hair so as not to waste it.

I didn't know what to vote for as I don't know wich of the answers suits my favourite smell best. I love vanilla, and coconut. I love Jessicurls Oil Blend (avocado oil, jojoba and coconut oil) which smells of vanilla, coconut and citrus. Divine

I wish my hair could smell like that all the time

I prefer to smell like me. I am continually frustrated by how difficult it is to find hair products that are unscented.

I like woody smells, like sage, ceder and the like.

This is all so interesting to me!

So many of you mention vanilla. Never thought of that. And next time I
will remember that people prefer unscented.

Fruit is what I voted. I also really love the smell of vanilla, but I not sure what choice that falls under.
