Any recommendations? Ideally mid-price.

oh my

I have been a citrus/green/herbal/woody type perfume wearer for a long time now but was intrigued by Coromandel. I bought a decant from the seller JanetStWalker recommended above and I've been blown off my feet by the bloody loveliness of it

I also tried Chanel Coco edt and it's gorgeous and made me totally rethink about what perfume suits me

Also tried Serge Lutens Bapteme du Feu and my 12 year old ds says I smell "lovely"

Diptique Eau Duelle, its so comforting for the winter. Fleabay usually has sample sizes to try.

I got some cuir de Russia and sycamore from eBay -12 ml for £16
Cheaper and quicker than the perfume court who don't seem to have Chanel exclusifs last time I checked . The seller was tom ford something ? Strange but definitely original:)

Jo Malone Blackberry and Bay - the smell of autumn going into warm cosy nights by the fire. Heavenly.

Gatekeeper, try Scent Samples uk com. They are in Cornwall and have most of the Serge Lutens, or a lot of them, plus other things but not most of the Chanel Exclusives.

If you like Cuir de Russie (which underwhelms me) try Cuir Cordoba.

That is magnificent. Weird, but amazing.

Try L' Instant de Guerlain when you get a chance. Elegant, soft honey and vanilla. Perfect for this time of the year.

Moulton brown, the rose and blackberry one, a sort of winter alternative to Paul Smith Rose
