Perfume recommendations for someone who doesn't really like perfume?

[sedgiebaby]

Sorry the title may not really make sense - what I mean is I find almost all perfumes too pungent. I'm after a clean fresh scent that does not overpower.

Once in a while I will wear DH's Clinique Happy for men and I don't mind the version for women, but its not really what I'm looking for.

I don't like perfume and find Jo Malone particularly cloying.

However, I adore Eau Dynamisante and wear it all the time, but it's not really perfume

Gucci 11. Been around a while but I find it light and not over-powering.

tarquin - i treated myself to some of that and it is the first 'perfume' I have really liked, other than fatershavey-stuff :)

F1lthym1ndedvixen, it's lovely isn't it. I'm toying with the idea of buying a second bottle cos they are usually limited edition for the Summer only.

This is the first year I have worn perfume cos I couldn't smell it before (was a smker until last year) so I wanted something that wasn't too overpowering and I love it

How about Dolce & gabbana Light Blue? I only like citrussy ones and am forever picking u the mens ones (i managed to buy 2 of the 6 numbers D&G ones only to discover they were both men's ones . Light Blue is my favourite at the moment. L'Occitane do some nice Green Tea and Verbena ones which are quite nice too.

i fing molton brown celestal maracuja goes on a bit heavy and jasmine-like but is very fresh after a little while

Perfume sets off my asthma so I can only wear a few light ones which may suit you J-Lo Glow, which has already been mentioned and Stella McCartney (I think the one I have is Sheer)

Elizabeth Arden Green Tea smells very clean, fresh and juicy. It's also widely available for around a tenner. Well worth a try.

L'Occitaine verbena perfume is lovely, light and lemony.
