For scents I use perfume from Hové Parfums in New Orleans called Bayou D’Amour. It’s a mix of rose and vetiver and something else that makes you feel like you’re floating on water when you first put it on..good one to wear to Tango classes
I also recently bought a scent from etsy seller,Wiggleperfume, called Black#1, that’s a mix of blackberry, narcissus, violet, patchouly, and clove. This is the one to wear when you think he needs to go home smelling like you..for whatever reason It’s full tilt seductive.
Then, there’s always Dragon’sBlood oil which you can buy in most botanicas, or occult supply stores that sell herbs. It’s has a heady, woodsy sweet scent that lasts< very good for serious endeavors.

*is late to the smelling-good party*
Mine would be BPAL, Haunt, Arcana and Bath & Body Works’ Japanese Cherry Blossom and Velvet Tuberose. I love slathering myself in BPAL though so that’s my first true smellie love.

I had similar perfume indecision until I got assaulted by a nice man in Barneys who for once showed me something welcome, that being the Serge Lutens perfume range. They’re on the pricey side but last forever and have a vast array of really interesting smells. My faves are Arabie (really spicy, musky and intense – definitely a hot evening scent), Chypre Rouge (which I get comments on every time I wear) and Douce Amere (which is citrusy, sweet but not sickly). As with all french perfume, use sparingly and let it settle for about 10 mins because it smells horrible to start with!

I generally stick with maybe one or two regular perfumes until I run out. My favorites have been Anna Sui’s original scent, Stella by Stella McCartney, and the one I’ve gotten most compliments on, Dior’s Midnight Poison. I’ll accent that with either grapefruit or brazil nut body butter, depending on my mood and/or the season. I usually go with a light moisturizing body wash.
