Mine's Bvlgari Black - addicted to the leathery burnt rubber smell. It's the only one I'm faithful to - perfume whore in all other respects Blush

Another vote for Coco here too. Gosh, there are a lot of us, aren't there?

And Gucci II, which I also understand is being discontinued - it's now v difficult to find.

Why are they scrapping my favourite perfumes? Is this what happens to life when you are old?

Green Tea - Elizabeth Arden

Anais Anais - really easy to wear.

I was a Chanel Allure girl for years, and now I'm a big fan of Tom Ford's Neroli Portofino. Doesn't seem to last as long as Allure, though, which is annoying given the price.

Chance, not Allure! Halfway down my 'just put baby to bed' glass of wine!

I like Allure but now I only really wear Molecule 01. It's a single ingredient, apparently it changes with the wearer. I adore it, it lasts forever and I spend all dya thinking how nice I smell Grin

Acqua di Gioia (Armani). Nice and light and good for summer or winter.

Cinnibar by Estee Lauder. My all time favourite, but I only wear it between October and December.

Narscissco Rodriguez or something. Pink bottle. Never can say it or spell it but love the pong.

Also aqua di Parma. They are divine...

Another Coco Chanel addict here.
For the evening I use Allure. But I need to change it.

I always have Armani she and jean Paul gaultier woman. I don't often have other perfumes unless people buy them for me as presents.

CKIN2U - lovely and light. Hate heavy perfumes.

Also a work colleague smelt lovely the other day. Asked her what is was and it's some fragrance from Soap and Glory at Boots, so i really want to find it.

Chanel coco mademoiselle and Coco Noir

Chanel Cristalle for summer

Molecules #1 to wear alone or with any of the above Smile. I regularly get chased down the street by people asking what this is (but I think it smells different on everyone).

I can't smell it on myself at all scarlet, only on my clothes/scarves when I sniff them. Truly though, I have never had so many people (mostly women, admittedly) tell me how gorgeous I smell since I started wearing it.
