What's that smell?

Why does Pandora keep playing me advertisements for Faith Hill Perfume?  Why in the world would I want to smell like a particular celebrity, and is Faith Hill such a big celebrity anyway?  I know I'm not up on the country music scene, but really.  And I know I don't ever wear perfume, but really!  Faith Hill Parfums?  Is this necessary

I hate the way most deodorants smell so I cheat a little, but it only works with solids.

You can get almost any yummy scent as an essential oil online. Find one that smells like vanilla chai. Buy a good deodorant that you like in unscented form. Screw the deodorant all the way out of the container and break it into a glass measuring cup. Scrape all the stuff stuck in the stick out into the cup. Microwave it just until it melts. Add your own scent. Screw the stick back into the container all the way and pour the melted deodorant back into the container. Wait until it hardens all the way and then enjoy smelling the way you like to smell. Mine smells like jasmine.

Thanks! What else do you do with essential oils? I have some tea tree oil that I use to make cleaning solutions, but that's about it.

I have a neighbor who makes home made soap, so I raid her essential oils once in a while, concoct a scent I like, and have her make custom scented soap. The latest batch smells exactly like Chantilly perfume.
