Really need a new perfume so I’m thinking of ordering a few samples to test things out. But I’m a bit overwhelmed and would like to know which of your perfumes you get the most compliments on?

Hidden On The Rooftops by Miller Harris gets the most compliments closely followed by Agent Provocateur's L'Agent.

Serge Luten's Ambre Sultan and Andy Tauer's Au Coeur du Desert are also regularly complimented.

At the moment I have some really lovely ones that were in my Liberty advent calendar, but still the one that people always comment positively on is Oud Attar, spiced oud mixed with sweet oud.

Not sophisticated in the perfume world but Angel made me a man magnet

NigelHarmansNewWife · 14/01/2024 20:49

J'Adore. I was given a free sample when I bought foundation years ago and thought it would be stinky. It's not, it's beautiful. I've been complimented by everyone from taxi drivers to friends and colleagues.

I work in a school and one of the kids complimented me on my perfume. Not sure if that counts! I’ve also had several comments that ‘it smells like chocolate here,’ which is fine by me cos who doesn’t love chocolate? 😂

nottaotter · 14/01/2024 20:51

Guerlain Santal Royal

Baccarat rouge I was really disappointed in as the smell does not last at all, its so faint.

evtheria · 14/01/2024 20:52

Luna by Penhaligon's
(edit: This isn’t actually even in my top 5 favourites, but it is very wearable so I don’t think too much about it. Lots of compliments, though!)

TheFormidableMrsC · 14/01/2024 20:53

Paul Smith Rose.

borntobequiet · 14/01/2024 20:53

Shalimar. I don’t wear it for a while, then I do, and people say how lovely it is.

KissMyArt · 14/01/2024 20:53

The only perfume I consistently got compliments on every single time was Japanese Musk oil from Body Shop.

But they discontinued it years ago 😭😭

LyndaSnellsSniff · 14/01/2024 20:54

Jo Malone English Oak and Hazelnut

FloofCloud · 14/01/2024 20:54

Hands down Mademoiselle Coco

JetBlackSteed · 14/01/2024 20:55

I get random compliments when wearing Chanel coco, but not coco mademoiselle.
you need to find what suits your own skin

Luddite26 · 14/01/2024 20:56

I love orange and bergamot Molten Brown but when I couldn't afford another there was a good Liz Earle offer on and I picked botanicals no 15 and people have stopped and said oh my god what is that perfume you are wearing is it Jimmy Choo when I say Liz Earle people look blank but I see there are a couple mentioned on this thread.
Used to love dolce n gabanna red and Giorgio Beverly hills and loved them for year but this Liz Earle botanical 15 is the only one I have ever had compliments on and raving ones at that!!
