have been using channel cristalle eau vert for a long time and would like something new.

I like fresh/green scents. maybe a bit more of a floral note than the cristalle eau vert.

the perfume section overwhelmes me. which ones are worth trying?

I went way off piste this time and have Nina Ricci and it's really nice.
I'm usually a Bvlgari girl but wanted a change.
it's read and the bottle is apple shaped.
That's all I know.

[http://nose.fr nose]] Say what you like, get samples and a code for money off once chosen. Addictive.

If you find a scent you like you can always find out a good dupe for it.

I'm using Burberry Weekend at the moment ... for men. It's quite lemony but very fresh and light.

yazzy85 · 13/07/2015 16:33

Chanel Chance Eau Fraiche, Dolce by Dolce and Gabanna - both very fresh and green. Marc Jacobs Daisy is green but a bit of sweetness in the scent too.

Hermes Un jardin sur le nil... my summer fave, very green!

mowglik · 13/07/2015 16:57

Chanel eau fraiche, bulgare eau parfumee au the vert,

kavv0809 · 13/07/2015 17:56

Elizabeth Arden Green Tea is nice and fresh

MairzyDoats · 13/07/2015 17:59

Bulgari the vert is lovely, very fresh.

Ooh me me me!

I love green, fresh scents. Currently I'm into tea based perfumes.

I love Maison Martin Margiela Green Tea Escape, also Untitled Eau, Francis Kurkidjan Acqua Universalis.

For a more floral scent try Creed Acqua Fiorentina, Penhaligon's Artemisia or Ellenisia, or Etro Viccolo Fiori.

I have Elizabeth Arden Green Tea but it's quite sharp and ozone-y.

I really want Atkinson's Posh on the Green.

Have a look at the reviews on Fragrantia.com

CointreauVersial · 13/07/2015 18:58

Clinique Calyx. I'm wearing it today, in fact.

MrsSkinnyLegs · 13/07/2015 19:17

My verdant favourites are Sisley's nettly Eau de Campagne, Dipthyqu's torn ivy Eau de Lierre and Chloe's rosy green Eau Fraîche by Chloe.

I have also worn Cristalle Eau Vert for a few years but this summer invested in some Tom Ford Mandarino Di Amalfi which is delicious (duty free!!)

ForSaleChesterDraws · 13/07/2015 19:59

How about the Cristalle EDP or EDT? Or Ô de Lancôme!

passthewineplz · 13/07/2015 20:05

Jo Malone Earl Grey & Cucumber Cologne

Annick Goutal Eau d'Hadrien
Annick Goutal Ninfeo Mio
Aqua di Palma

Issey Miyake A Scent is gorgeously green and fresh. I get regular compliments when I wear it and its not very expensive. (NB not to be confused with L'Eau D'Issey which is totally different).

tatumsfunkychicken · 13/07/2015 20:21

Burberry baby touch. I can't recommend it highly enough. I'm not sure it's in shops any more, I order it online. It is honestly just delightful. Not strong or overwhelming, very subtle with verbena and a touch of jasmine. It's beautiful. Very green and fresh.

NanTheWiser · 13/07/2015 22:03

Miss Dior Blooming Bouquet is a lovely light floral, not too sweet, or Clarin's Eau des Jardins is light and fresh too - both my summer favourites.

7to25 · 14/07/2015 23:57

This year I have changed my summer perfume from Chanel Cristalle Eau Vert to Trussardi Donna.

Etak15 · 15/07/2015 00:01

Dkny is fresh and summery, and it's a bit old school but I'm loving tommy girl at the moment and cool waters!!

xmaslisa · 15/07/2015 00:09

Chanel chance eau fraiche
Flowerbomb Viktor & Rolf
Clarins eau de jardins
