Forgot Moonwind and Prada Iris.

BlondeGinger · 18/05/2017 17:08

Coco Mademoiselle or Coco Noir by Chanel, Jasmin Noir by Bvlgari, Cinéma by YSL, Narcisco Rodriguez for her, J'adore by Dior.
I used to be a spritzer girl in a department store and loved using a different tester every day!

Mitsouko - very womanly. --though some think it is quie masculine!

It is a shame Avon's perfume are so samey. In the 70's/early 80's they had some lovely ones moonwind, Occur, unforgettable, charisma.

Deathraystare · 18/05/2017 17:25

Plus Miss Dior, Dioressence. Also a lot of Estee Lauder perfumes Knowing, Spellbound, White Linen. I also love Cachet. That was my school day favourite!

thingersandfumbs · 18/05/2017 17:45

La Vie est Belle by Lancôme. I get complimented on an almost daily basis.

Littlemissindifferent · 18/05/2017 19:00

My favourite ever was Tendre Poison By Dior but discontinued.
Second to that is Jimmy Choo Flash

tam dao by diptyque

dddddddddd · 18/05/2017 23:02

D&G Light Blue
Cerruti 1881
Christian Dior Addict

38cody · 18/05/2017 23:06

mystery Rochas - discontinued, smells lovely on my mum, doesn't suit me,
for me Coco Chanel

As a teen my friend used to douse herself in Lulu - nasty sugary stuff - vile - makes me feel sick but very young whenever I smell it.

38cody · 18/05/2017 23:06

mystere

flibberdy · 18/05/2017 23:15

Butterfly - hanae mori
Sensual orchid - Laurent mazzoni
But my ultimate is Sweetie aoud by Roja but at £400 a bottle it is just a dream SadAngry

Miz10 · 18/05/2017 23:39

Black Opium by YSL

BorisTrumpsHair · 18/05/2017 23:46

I've just developed an allergic reaction to my 3rd fav perfume. Just after investing in a giant bottle. Tragic!

VintagePerfumista · 19/05/2017 06:21

Deathray- over on the perfumista thread we have been revisiting some of the old Avons, they are magnificent. I haven't liked one of theirs since, I think, Tasha was released in about 1980!

highinthesky · 19/05/2017 06:33

Estée Lauder - Beyond Paradise
Swarovski - Aura, Marriage collection
Bvlgari - Omnia. Any variety, but Indian Garnet is my preferred

The one I have really gone off after years of use is Estée Lauder's Beautiful.

SallyGinnamon · 19/05/2017 06:33

I've been wearing Allure by Chanel since it came out decades ago and still love it.

But I'm increasingly going cruelty-free so I'm looking for something else now.

CrepuscularCritter · 19/05/2017 07:02

La Fille de L'air by Courreges - to me that's the smell of summer. Bergamot and neroli on top, allegedly neoprene underneath,

And Balenciaga Paris - more violet than I'd choose normally, but this smells unusually deep for me, and I love it. Probably the chypre is what makes me happy.

IncidentalAnarchist · 19/05/2017 07:12

Charlotte Tilbury - scent of a dream.
I'm getting compliments everywhere I go!

Ginlinessisnexttogodliness · 19/05/2017 22:12

Guerlain Insolence but only the purple eau de perfume not the toilette.
I've worn it for years and I just love it.

mycavitiesareempty · 19/05/2017 22:29

Oo I have Tam Dao BT Dyptique too. Love it.

VintagePerfumista · 20/05/2017 06:26

Was doing an ebay peruse last night, for those bemoaning the demise of Gio' (not Acqua di.) there is loads on there, and particularly on ebay.it, a lot of it is very reasonably priced, lots of miniatures for example for a handful of euro.

RedStripeIassie · 20/05/2017 06:58

Ralph Lauren: Romance
For a partner: Romance for men (now discontinued Sad)

Next: Just Pink is a good rip of if Romance. Just £8 a bottle.

GeekyWombat · 20/05/2017 07:04

Thierry Mugler Cologne (it's unisex). So zesty and fresh.

yummycake123 · 20/05/2017 07:16

My favourite perfume is Narciso Rodríguez for her.
I also love Jo Malone pomegranate noir and nectarine blossom together.
