Or even are you wearing more generally? And will you repurchase it?

I've Valentino Viva Voce edp on, I like it but not enough to buy a new bottle when it runs out.

Floral Street - sweet almond blossom

Cincinnatus · 02/12/2023 17:14

Coco Mademoiselle as usual.

Alluring by Essence Vault, not sure what dupe it is. Chanel maybe? Smells nice anyway

Love both of those!

Today I'm wearing Avignon by Comme des Garçons. I smell like an old church.

I laughed out loud at that - I'm burning my new candle, Spiritus Sancti by Cire Trudon, and DH just walked in and said "wow, it smells amazing in here, like an old church!"

I've bookmarked that scent and the one @SirVixofVixHall mentioned too, I reckon we all like that smokey, woody type of fragrance.

MadamVastra · 02/12/2023 17:18

@CarrieMoonbeams me too!

I got mine from a liberty beauty box drop and I will definitely repurchase!

Hermès - Eau des Merveilles Bleue. It's a wonderful fragrance.
Edit: it's a new bottle, so the day is far off, but I will repurchase when I've used it up.

Edited

Don’t wait too long. They tend to discontinue the variations.

familyissues12345 · 02/12/2023 17:25

Angel - my usual

user701 · 02/12/2023 17:26

Body shop white musk oil from circa 1992

CharlottePimpernel · 02/12/2023 17:28

Obsession, it's my winter perfume for the last 25 years and I buy a bottle every year

HuntingoftheSnark · 02/12/2023 17:29

MariaMeringue · 02/12/2023 14:38

Kenzo Flower. I've worn it every day for 23 years :)

Me too! And 26 years here.

shoofly · 02/12/2023 14:33

Jo Malone Basil and Neroli. Would definitely buy again

Snap! My DM bought it for me as a gift and I love it.

DameCelia · 02/12/2023 17:34

Guerlain Insolence Eau de Parfum.
It's the original bottle that looks like a stack of dishes in a sink.
I absolutely love it.
I will want to re-buy it when it runs out but I know the new formulation isn't as good 😔

ElleWoods15 · 02/12/2023 17:40

Jo Loves Pomelo.

Also wearing the Byredo x Suzanne Kaufmann Bregenzer Wald quite a lot at the moment. It reminds me of Austria- happy thoughts especially in winter!!

Allthegoodusernamesareused · 02/12/2023 17:45

Nothing today, but at the moment, I wear Hermes Jardin Sur Le Nil, Paco Rabanne Black XS, or Yves Saint Laurent Black Opium.

I generally find something I like and wear it for all occasions, until I get bored (because I'm crap at finding one I like to begin with). So to have three on the go is not like me at all.

TrickyD · 02/12/2023 17:45

Chanel 19, actually Perfume Parlour’s excellent clone.

AceofPentacles · 02/12/2023 17:47

Jo Malone Ginger Biscuit, I love it but it only lasts about five seconds on me so maybe I won't repurchase.

Trying to choose a Byredo for my Christmas list

sadsack78 · 02/12/2023 17:47

YSL Opium- the original one, not Black Opium. They have reformulated it so it's not quite as I remember but still lovely.

It smells amazing at this time of year in the biting cold, like the inside of a church.

I only apply a tiny bit so I don't knock anyone out 😆and I don't wear it very often- it's quite intense and sexy. Feels a bit much for popping to the shops.

TwilightSkies · 02/12/2023 17:50

The PP dupe of Myrrh and Tonka is amazing for a fraction of the price

CherryBlossom321 · 02/12/2023 17:52

Red Zara Temptation.

TheSandHurtsMyFeelings · 02/12/2023 17:52

To answer the OP properly, I probably won't repurchase. I have a slightly out-of-control perfume habit so even if I love something I rarely wear it often enough to ever run out. One full-size bottle could last me years, and I have a lot of 'loves'.

I think the only scent I've ever repurchased a full bottle of was Eau Dynamisante. What a classic, and made to be sprayed with abandon!

MadamVastra · 02/12/2023 17:18

@CarrieMoonbeams me too!

I got mine from a liberty beauty box drop and I will definitely repurchase!

Snap! I loved the sample so much that DH bought it for me as a surprise for my birthday in the summer. 💕. That Liberty Beauty Box drop must make its money back 10 times over!

WellThisIsFun1 · 02/12/2023 18:03

Coromandel today.

I smell quite heady it must be said

PaintBySticker · 02/12/2023 18:06

Chanel Gabrielle. I’m trying to use it up although others sometimes say i smell nice.

Mon Guerlain is a recent fave but I can’t justify buying more until I’ve worked through others.

TheYearOfSmallThings · 02/12/2023 18:10

Fame (Paco Rabane), so I smell sweet and golden and delicious. I'm on my third sample and I will be getting a bottle for Christmas.

chickensheep · 02/12/2023 18:11

Molecule 1 - my fav
