I know this is completely subjective but i'd like suggestions. I have worn l'eau d'issey for years and fancy a change.

But not too much of a change. Something light. I normally only wear to go out but would like the option of skooshing some on for work without making everyone on the bus choke.

Hermes Un Jardin sur le Nil is a gorgeous light summery fragrance. Not too floral, not too citrus, not too fruity, not too dry. Elegant, not in yer face, and excellent staying power!

There are others in that Un Jardin series, but that is my favourite,

Ooh where will I find that, is it in the big dept stores? There is Harvey Nics near me.

I think that's a great suggestion from cardamomginger. Yes, you will find it in your HarveyNicks. You should also find it in a reasonably large John Lewis. Personally, I like "Un Jardin sur le Toit" - but they are all lovely. And "Un Jour d'Hermes". The perfumer that is behind the recent Hermes fragrances is renowned for his light, sheer, yet very elegant and beautiful scents.

Glad you want to try it! Yes, HN should like it. Vanille Galante (not at all what you would expect from a Vanilla fragrance - it's light, fresh, a bit salty, the tiniest bit fruity) in the Hermessence range, might also be worth a try. Ditto Rose Ikebana (again Hermessence - this one is a sheer elegant almost metallic rose). These two will only be at actual Hermes concessions, i.e. where they flog the scarves, bags, etc. Might have it at HN.
