My only real dislikes are two notes that make me sneeze when used in high concentrations: cinnamon and mimosa. Any note can be stunning in the right perfumer's hands.

Did you always want to know what your favorite fragrance notes were? I thought this would be an easy way to visually identify what seem to be my favorite notes in fragrances. I placed the notes of my current collection into a word cloud program like Wordle and this was the result.
