Summer Sexy, Part 4: Fabulous Fragrances

Summer is a great season for renewal! Sure, you could renovate your house or finally dump your boyfriend -- but why not try something a little less drastic and switch up your scent? Fall/winter fragrances tend to be a bit strong (think heavy orientals and musks), so in the summertime, it's fun to try lighter, brighter scents (like citruses and subtle florals).
