someone at work was wearing sarah jessica parker one which smelled lovely and laundry fresh

brimfull · 29/07/2010 14:46

I will admit I love anais anais

lorelilee · 29/07/2010 15:02

not particularly cottony, but really clean and fresh is Jo Malon Grapefruit

IWishIWasAFrog · 29/07/2010 15:05

the new clarins one, eau de jadiniers or something like that, it's divine

cocolepew · 29/07/2010 15:08

JLO Glow is nice, or Sunflowers.

I want Coco but it's too bloody dear. I'm obsessed with it

louloulala · 29/07/2010 15:08

Amazing Grace by Philosphy is lovely - very clean smelling

itstheyearzero · 29/07/2010 15:41

Light Blue by D&G will fit the bill.

GetOrfMoiLand · 29/07/2010 15:42

Guerlan Aqcua Allegorica (that aint how you spell it) Lemon Fresca, or Gentiana.

really fresh smelling.

Hang on will find a link.

GetOrfMoiLand · 29/07/2010 15:46

poncetastic

Don't have Lemon Fresca or gentiana any more but they do have other ones which are well worth a try.

Or Demeter who have a scent called Laundromat.

SloanyPony · 29/07/2010 21:38

Philosophy Pure Grace.
Anything from here
DKNY Cashmere Mist
Creed Acier Aliminium
Acqua di Parma

polyhymnia · 29/07/2010 23:04

Miller Harris Tangerine Vert
Annick Goutal Eau D'Hadrien
Dior Escale a Portofino
Sisley Eau de Campagne
Eau Dynamisante - fresher than the latest one, Eau de Jardin

all gorgeous and without 'sweet' notes

lilolilmanchester · 29/07/2010 23:08

was going to say Philosophy too - I like Pure Grace but you might like Baby Grace? (can get it in John Lewis)

bibbitybobbityhat · 29/07/2010 23:08

Chanel 19

O de Lancome

Bishoplyn · 29/07/2010 23:20

Like Lilo, I love Baby Grace - its really fresh and light. I get it from QVC.

Scuttlebutter · 29/07/2010 23:41

Another vote here for Philosophy - the Amazing Grace is lovely, very fresh and clean and understated. A gorgeous day time fragrance.

Also citrussy and gorgeous for summer is Cristalle by Chanel. At the moment, I am wearing Green Tea and Mint from L'Occitane. That is wonderful in hot weather as it's very cool, fresh and delicious. It's also a little bit out of the ordinary.

For many years, Floris did a Limes Toilet Water which I loved wearing in the summer, not sure if they still do.

Monty100 · 29/07/2010 23:44

Do you want a budget one?

I keep a bottle of Sunflowers in my drawer at work. I think it's Lancome, not sure.

A spray of that every now and again is refreshing.

Love Missayke, Chanel something or other, Chance or something and a couple of others but I don't pay that much attention to names, although I do know what you mean about fresh, that's what I like too.

dearprudence · 29/07/2010 23:54

Stella McCartney 'Sheer' is lovely and very light. Also like her 'In Two'.

GetOrfMoiLand · 30/07/2010 09:23

Don't you hate it when you answetr a question and do links and everything, and the OP disappears off the face of the earth.

Huh.

Biscuitbreaker · 30/07/2010 09:53

Another Philosophy vote! Or there is a brand called Fresh which does some very clean scents...

sweetheart · 30/07/2010 11:47

I like the original Ghost perfume for freshness

cathers · 30/07/2010 12:31

I love Hermes Jardin de Nuit. Smells of fresh air and grass. Quite light though and doesn't last very long but had loads of compliments

SloanyPony · 30/07/2010 13:42

By the way I'd recommend QVC if you buy a philosophy fragrance, as they offer a refund if you dont like it, even if you have used it, basically a 30 day money back guarantee, no quibbles. So if you are "buying blind" make sure you get it from them if you can.

Lilymaid · 30/07/2010 13:51

O de Lancome

Naetha · 30/07/2010 14:37

Clarins eau de jardins is lovely and cheap
