What's a Biter's signature scent?

The Bite:
We'll tell you one thing: It ain't patchouli. Our essential oil-based perfume picks don't contain allergy-inducing chems, and have more subtlety and variation than the hippie-dippy BO-masker, so you smell more ooh-la-la than eww.
The Benefits: 
  • Seduce hotties. Dab on a unique new scent, and let your Biter allure lure them in.
  • Lower your risk of rashes. Synthetic fragrances are a leading cause of dermatitis (red, itchy skin).
  • Avoid bad chems. Many designer perfumes contain preservatives, such as phthalates (linked to genital abnormalities in male fetuses); our faves don't.
Personally Speaking: 
Heather loves Aveda custom blends (although to be honest, she still can't give up her Annick Goutal), while the only scent Jen sports is her deodorant.
Wanna Try: 
  • Aveda Personal Blends - choose from 12 aromas to create your own personal perfume at your nearest Aveda store ($20).
  • Strange Invisible Moon Garden - rich, floral scent with notes of jasmine and tuberose for those who want to splurge ($185).
  • Stella in Two - personalize your fragrance by mixing a bit of the musky Amber with the light, flowery Peony ($40-$44).
  • TerraNova Rain - refreshing, clean, and slightly sweet, with staying power ($13).
  • Skin Deep - ranks beauty products based on the safety of their ingredients. See whether your signature scent is up to sniff.

Cocktail Fact

 Researchers at Cornell are synthesizing female cockroach pheromones to lure male cockroaches into traps for pest control.

Bang For The Bite

When your own pheromones just aren't doing the trick, go for unique, eco-friendly scents (which also cost less than designer fragrances).
