Just been into Boots and tried a few perfumes.

I currently have Armani City Glam and Armani Code.

Today I tried:

DKYN Be Delicious (both green and red but I'm thinking the red one was just that bit better)
CK Into U - Loved this one, very tempted.
CK Euphoria - Gorgeous
Ghost (in the moon bottle, wasn't impressed)

I Can only afford one. Don't know which one to go for!

What do you have and what's your favourite?

Just spritzed on Daisy by Marc Jacobs. Mmmmm. . very summery. Actually the bottle top is gorgeous.

EternalPie · 08/08/2011 16:07

I've not tried that one!

Just remembered I also tried the new CK Shock today - not impressed which is a shame as I really liked the bottle Blush

It's always a variety of 3
samsara/dune/allurein

another thread has reminded me I liked Dolce and Gabbana years ago so might try that again

IAmTheCookieMonster · 08/08/2011 16:28

I like stella by stella mccartney, and intuition by estee lauder

ENormaSnob · 08/08/2011 16:32

From your list I have be delicious green and euphoria.

Love them both.

Euphoria is a heavier scent and I wear this in winter.

Be delicious is lighter and fruity and I wear this in summer.

Both last on the skin really well.

Teachermumof3 · 08/08/2011 20:32

I like Armani code, too.

My top favourite is Chanel no.5, but I also love Estee Lauder-White Linen.

Other top ones are Kenzo Flowers, Miss Dior and Dior Addict.

I like the bottles of Agent Provocateur and Marc Jacobs-Lola, but that's a rather superficial 'like' as I don't know what either of them smell like yet! I loved the M Jacobs Daisy bottle, but thought it smelt horrible!

Coco madamoiselle for fancy and the britney spears one in the pink bottle with green gems. Don't make a face because it's britney spears Wink it's actually really nice

AuntieMaggie · 08/08/2011 20:42

I used to like tommy girl too, and one benefit did but cant remember the name...

peppapighastakenovermylife · 08/08/2011 21:20

Ooh I used to like Tommy girl!

Before that I had one when I was about 14...can't remember the name but it was a green swirly shell like bottle with a pink lid?!

bringmesunshine2009 · 08/08/2011 21:30

Agent Provocateur the original scent. Worn it for nearly a decade, always gets compliments. Is truly lovely.

brighthair · 08/08/2011 23:42

I have a perfume shelf Blush

But mostly I wear DKNY original woman
at the moment I am into J Lo LA Glow

Meglet · 08/08/2011 23:47

Have worn Angel since it came out in the 90's.
Like Dolce and Gabbana 'The One'.

Am going to put Tom Ford's Black Orchid on my Xmas list. It's gorgeous. I think it only sells in larger / nice department stores. No one stocks it in my town.

Ineedacleaneriamalazyslattern · 08/08/2011 23:48

I love Daisy by Mark Jacobs as well I am also wafting at the screen it is lovely.

HipHopOpotomus · 09/08/2011 00:02

Feminite du bois by Shiseido. It's becoming increasingly hard to find though.
I have desire to hoard it.

Old school fav is Rive Gauche and Paris by YSL - cut my teeth on those.

In recent years I've moved away from 'high street' brands - love Fragonard fragrances but it helps to be in France to try them first.

iloveeverton · 09/08/2011 07:48

Burberry Summer
Dior Miss Dior Cherie L'eau

Grockle · 09/08/2011 07:55

Flower - kenzo
