Not only is the Jaqua Shower Syrup nasty; the packaging is very flea market and reminds me of Watkins Imitation Vanilla Extract you can find at flea markets. Overpriced too.
Jaqua products in general are very poorly packaged, like the Bakery Set with shrink wrapped stuff inside.
Jaqua smells good indeedy. But please redesign and lose the Rite Aid packaging.

SOLACE-I am the same way with Pink & Dream, My BF & I went to the Gap outlet in July & he bought Pink(the 1st time I tried Pink)& Dream(I had to reup on it) for me & they are totally spring scents & 2 of my faves on the list of scents I dont tire of.... But Dream is like my signature in a way, I was a Jr in HS when it came out & I've loved it since...

Speaking of-Do you guys remember Gap Om? It was in the same 'line' and was orange, I personally didnt like it, it came out a little while after Dream...Seems like I remember a hint of sandelwood in it....

(I know this is a super-old post and normally I don't bump threads just for the sake of bumping, but since some people expressed interest in Om...)

I LOVE Om. Been wearing it since probably '97 or so and was always scared Gap'd do away with it (because that seems to happen to every beauty/fragrance product I decide I like... ) Anyway, Om's still available in the outlets (I got a gift set for Christmas that included a BIG EDT, a BIG lotion, a smaller shower gel, and a shimmery lip gloss thingie that I haven't tried yet), at least in Orlando, FL. I live in St. Louis, and haven't seen it in regular retail stores around here for a while, but they did still have So Pink (which I also love), and I think Heaven and Dream. I also really like Truly Devoted, but I don't remember seeing that recently either.

I also used to wear Grass back in the day, probably around '97-'98. Seems to me they also had a citrus-based scent at that time that I LOVED...I'm remembering that the little line-drawing on the front of the frosted EDT bottle (like how Om has an orange swirly-looking thing) was yellow. Sigh...I miss old stuff.

As for scents that make me dry-heave, anything berry (unless offset by a little citrus, e.g. strawberry lemonade), especially raspberry, mulberry, etc. I also hate anything melon, anything kiwi, anything foody, anything overly-sweet. I usually hate vanilla-based stuff, too, but WVS has grown on me. Does it remind anyone else of the old Vanilla Fields perfume, or is it just me?

Freesia!
