Inspired by replies on another thread-

I LOVE perfume-never leave the house without it.

I am attracted to very strong musky or woodsy smells.

At the moment I have-

Boudoir
Knowing
Agent provacateur
Naughty alice
Samsara
Mitsouko

But if I could only wear one perfume for the rest of my life it would definately be.......Samsara!!

What is your forever perfume?

there are only 2 perfumes that don't make me feel sick , they are

Beautiful
Fifth Avenue (which I believe they have stopped making!! but if anyone knows please tell!)

so in answer to the question it looks like it'll have to be Beautiful for the rest of my life!

Chanel Allure

Feminite du Bois - it is increasingly hard to find so only for "special days" now. I fear running out.

I think you would like it Goran

Coco by Chanel

Chanel no19

(no5 just doesn't suit me)

SPsFanjoLovesRussellHoward · 05/07/2012 11:02

I'm quite happy with my 'Lipsy' perfume. I love the smell and the price.

I also love the red apple DKNY.

Flaneuse · 05/07/2012 11:03

Boudoir by Vivienne Westwood - just gorgeous. It's grown-up, heady, sexy, and lasts ages.

Dior addict

OP, I wore Samsara for 15 years without break. I adore it. A friend said I needed dragging kicking and screaming into the 21st century. So I tried loads. Hated most. (although D&G red was nice enough).

Then DH bought me Dior Addict. Oh god I could drink the stuff. It's gorgeous.

So I think Dior Addict.
Or Samsara.
Can't choose. Grin

YouOldSlag · 05/07/2012 11:59

They don't make Gucci Envy any more? what! I LOVE that perfume.

Shodan · 05/07/2012 12:01

Chanel no 19 here too. I love the others too but that would be tops.

I've had to start wearing perfume everyday because it seems to be the default birthday/Christmas/anniversary/Valentine's Day gift and my stocks are quite high. Not that I'm complaining Grin

Samsara too OP.
I have rotated only 3 perfumes for about the last 15 years - Samsara, Allure and Dune.

happybubblebrain · 05/07/2012 12:03

I love Prada and Very Valentino.

Sucksoutthejoy · 05/07/2012 12:04

Another shocked about Envy Shock. Chanel Allure for me, been wearing it for 17 years now ( and suddenly feel very old realising how long ago 18 was)

QuickLookBusy · 05/07/2012 12:05

Chanel no.5

Have tried lots of others but nothing comes close for me.

ImpYCelyn · 05/07/2012 12:07

Chanel Chance - it just suits me better than the others.

RhiRhi123 · 05/07/2012 12:10

Coco chanel or Jo Malone pomegranate noir I can't decide :)

Yummymummyyobe1 · 05/07/2012 12:11

Chanel no5 I love it although it has to be the pure perfume.

ginghamfish · 05/07/2012 12:12

Samsara, Dune and Roma but probably Samsara!
