Does anyone wear Chanel no 5, White Linen or Kenzo Flowers?

[Appuskidu]

And can recommend me something similar?!

I don’t like sweet perfumes, would rather have something musky, I think. I fancy something new!

Watching with interest as I like all of these! I would say that the Kenzo Flowers one is 'sweet' though.

Anyway, others I like: Dior addict eau fraiche, Gucci II, Donna Karan Cashmere Mist. For everyday, Jlo Glow and SJP Lovely.

I wear chanel no. 5 and dolce by dolce and gabanna

I wear white linen, also estee lauder sensuous, and bulgari pour femme.

Mimosa and Cardamom by Jo Malone is quite similar to Kenzo Flower.

Ah... but you don’t like sweet perfumes 🤔

Sweet in a fruity or floral sense?

I have some Kenzo Flower - was recommended by a sales assistant in Sephora when I said I liked Givenchy's Eau De Moiselle and she said nobody was wearing that anymore

Thank you-those are great, I will make a list!

I see what you mean about Kenzo being sweeter-it’s quite light. I suppose what I mean is, I’m not keen on the sicklier sweet smells?!

I really love the smell of Lillies-they remind me of my wedding bouquet, but I don’t know if any perfumes smell of them! It’s always Lily of the valley that’s named as a perfume note-aren’t they different flowers!?

Hermes Caleche is similar to those.

Penhaligons Lily and Spice is a very realistic lily soliflore.

Dolce and Gabbana Feminine really smells of lilies but I think it may be discontinued. It was in a plain glass bottle with a silver cap

I second Hermes Caleche. I don’t think Chanel No 5 is the same as it used to be, although it is still my favourite. What I can recommend is using Molecule No 1 with your perfume and layering it. It personalises it to you. You can also wear it alone.

I like Sisley Eau de Campagne for a summer perfume.

I'm enjoying Balenciaga Florabotanica - it's floral, but has amber and vetiver in there too so it's not sweet. It seems to have been slated in a lot of reviews around the internet which must be why I got it for a steal on eBay and really like it, not too heavy for the summer and it lasts on me for ages.

You might already know this, but the site fragantica is great for this sort of question. I find their recommendations very accurate

I love No.5 and i second a previous posters recommdation of Donna Karan Cashmere Mist. It's fabulous.

I wear Chanel No 5.

I also wear

Lanvin Eclat D’Arpege

Jimmy Choo Flash

Jimmy Choo Illicit Flower

Next Just Pink

I’m saving for some Donna Karen Cashmere Mist!

Thank you all! I’ve ordered a sample of Hermes Caleche and Cashmere Mist!

I have never heard of this-who makes it?!
