So I'm looking for a new 'night' perfume & in a nutshell I want it to be the kind of scent that would make a man a bit weak at the knees and think "God, you smell gooood!"

Does such a perfume exist?? If so please tell me about it!

The only thing I wouldn't want is for it to be too 'thick' and 'heavy'.

I love Dior addict!

I think Chanel Number 19 is sexy and mysterious, very classy too.

What about one of the Dolce and Gabbana 'Collection pour femme' scents? I had La Lune which was green and fresh but L'Imperatrice is delicious.

According to DH
Pomegranate Noir by

Malone

Dark Amber and Gingerlily is sexy and warm, just right for Winter.

EdithDickie · 02/10/2014 05:10

Chanel Allure

Chanel tendre chance and coco noir.
I used to use beyond love by kilian which dh absolutely loved,but find it now too strong.

[gets out notebook & writes down a list]

Thanks for suggestions so far - will check them all out (except maybe the Tom ford on grounds of price as Sod's law I will probably end up liking it!)

Another vote for Pomegranate Noir Wink

Carnal Flower by Frederic Malle

polyhymnia · 02/10/2014 11:27

I think perfume is sobindividual that what one person finds sexy another doesn't. Though Carnal Flower is certainly sensual ( if too sweet for me, like 99% of perfumes).

polyhymnia · 02/10/2014 11:28

Pomegranate Noir, for example, my DH would find nauseating rather than sexy.

polyhymnia · 02/10/2014 11:31

Tom Ford on the other hand has some perfumes which are subtly sensual not cloying. Worth saving up the extra money IMO. Cheaper scents lack subtlety.

MarysDressSways1 · 02/10/2014 11:52

Agent Provocateur - Maitresse is my absolute FAVE (love the bottle too).

And Chloé Eau de parfum..

Those are always hits with the fellas!

Northumberlandlass · 02/10/2014 11:56

Black Orchid or Pomegranate Noir are my choices.

If I had the money - Tom Ford's Tobacco Vanille it's incredible

murphys · 02/10/2014 11:57

I wear Allure as my everyday perfume. To my knowledge I have yet to make a man weak at the knees due to wearing it Grin

I think its more about what suits you really. There was this cheap Revlon deodorant and body lotion set that I got as a gift, whenever I wore it, people always commented on how nice I smelt. They only went and bloody discontinued it, didn't they........Hmm

ChinngisKhan · 02/10/2014 11:59

Dior addict for me too.

macnab · 02/10/2014 12:02

Narciso Rodriguez for her. Gorgeous.

and Chanel No. 5

Crazycrazypmt · 02/10/2014 12:02

I thinks Stella smells amazing, I wear it day and night, but it makes me feel amazing when I go somewhere special. A really classic deep rose smell. It with some added depth that makes it smell really alluring.

SofaCanary · 02/10/2014 12:02

Body chemistry has a hell of a lot to do with it.

The original Miss Dior dries down really sexy on me, apparently but on others it's a bit fusty and straight laced. You need to try loads and let them sit on skin for a few hours to really see how compatible they are with you.

wrapsuperstar · 02/10/2014 12:06

Jicky by Guerlain is definitely a sensual smell and a bit more unusual than the big power florals out there.
