Suggest a perfume for me to try

6 replies

I only have a dribble of perfume left so I need something new. I am currently wearing Ralph Lauren Romance and have been for the last couple of years. I love it but its time for a change.

The problem is whenever I go to try a different one my nose gets confused and I can't remember which is which.

So if anyone is really into perfume could you suggest a few fragrances for me to try if I tell you the kind of thing I like.

I like quite a light perfume. Nothing too musky or over whelming. Something either quite flowery or citrusy. In the past I've worn (going back a long time here) Anais Anais, Diorella, that apple one (can't remember the proper name), CK One, O de Lancôme, Oui de Lancôme, So de la Renta, Dior escale a portofino.

So any suggestions for me?

Im the same have worn the same for ages, I tried Gucci Flora on my wrist earlier and the scent has stayed, it's fresh but at the same time lAsting, smelt lots of others but they where too heavy and sickly, it's worth a sniff if you haven't trid it.

My faves are Chanel, Chance; Penhaligons, Juniper Sling; Cerruti, 1881.

All quite a light scent.

I think you would like Citron de Vigne by Fresh (they have a store if you are in London)

That's great thanks. Lots for me to try. I'm going to go to a big Boots tomorrow and try just 2/3 so my nose doesn't get confused.

I absentmindedly tried one at the till in boots the other week, and actually really loved it, it lasted all day and I kept getting nicer wafts of it. When I went back today to find out what it was its.... the one direction perfume. Oh the shame Blush
