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.

I always have a bottle… I love it.

So beautiful - the bottle and the scent.

Wearing Eau du Soir.

Chanel Gabrielle. I've worn Chanel perfume for over twenty years. My favourite is Coco which I know I have as a Christmas present. I asked for Gabrielle earlier in the year as a change and I do like it but it doesn't last very long on me. Looking forward to going back to Coco soon. My daughter wears it too so it feels very familiar 🥰

I've been working my way through a small bottle of rose and jasmine perfume I got from primark of all places. I have a couple of bottles of Issey Miyake too, as I do like those scents.

My eldest would like to vote for the YSL Black Opium with the green bottle. It’s been her favourite and best for a couple of years now.

Nina Ricci L'air du Temps - old-fashioned and difficult to find - but I love it and people often ask what it is.

This was 'my mum' for so many years, was kind of gutted when she moved on to other smells!

Vanitas -Versace , a gift from my son , i absolutely loved it straightaway .
It's a creamy musky floral and lasts all day , i will always have a bottle of this.

As a teen for years I wore CK Obsession...sadly it really never smelled as great on me as it did my friend but it was a big trend then.

Every now and then I get a nostalgic waft of Anai Anais or cerutti 1881 and think I might go back there. I wouldn't go back to Rive Gauche however which was also one of my early teen sniffs...

Mostly at the moment Escentric Molecules 01 + iris, chloe, and chloe rose. I am trying to find what the over riding scent in the escentric m plus irs is as I love it and want a cheaper version, but I've bought things saying they are 'iris' and they aren't the same so I'm a bit confused.

I just looked that up and it says rose and freesia which are two of my favourite smells so I have to try it!

Lots of comments on it here but the smells like section helpfully has prada listed which doesn't help with price!

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

This is my favourite.
Discovered it once in the office duty - so it always reminds me of holidays. It only for best.
Daily it's Charlie Red.

Gosh I am impressed at people wearing perfume every day. I usually just smell of deodorant although insist on perfume when I am doing something tricky, Clarins Eau Ressourcant is my go to. I love the sound of but it is £££ and probably need to go into a shop (ARGH!) to test it first

Gosh you should wear perfume every day , just because it's good to be alive .

Floofydawg · 03/12/2023 13:39

Jo Malone Orange Bitters. It's my winter perfume and I love it.

Deathraystare · 03/12/2023 14:09

Madame Gres. Oldie but goodie

MrsCharlieD · 03/12/2023 14:41

Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille, pricey but I love it and would never be without a bottle. I also love Givenchy Ange au demon le secret. I wear that a lot too.

rottweilersrock · 03/12/2023 15:45

Moschino gold fresh is one of my new favourites.

Sisley's Eau de Soir.
Had it for several years and rarely wear it but today I was just in the mood, and now I'm pretty sure I'll motor through the rest of the bottle by New Year.

DilemmaDelilah · 03/12/2023 21:34

Eau de witch hazel at the moment! Dreadful piles so using a sitz bath with warm water and a few drops of witch hazel after every loo visit.

I haven't used perfume since chemo at the end of June left me with some allergies and I'm not using anything fragranced at present, but usually I wear Mitsouko (warm and spicy) in the winter and Diorella (fresh and citrusy) in the summer.
