Can you remember what your first proper perfume was? I was looking for a perfume for dd12 for Christmas and I sniffed one and it instantly took me back to 1994 it was identical to the original United colours of Benetton perfume, I got a bit excited and said to the girl in the shop who nodded along sympatheticly with the old woman!!

it was either Venezia Pastello or L'eau par Kenzo. I still occasionally use the latter.

Eau de Givenchy - one of my best friends at school, her father ran the local department store, so we all got sample vials for Christmas. I still love it and have a bit left in a proper bottle.

Chanel no5 - my lovely Aunty passed away and I was given the remaining of the bottle. I would have been 9 and felt so very grown up and happy I could spray it and smell my Aunty!
