Besides Lovely what celebrity perfume do you rate?

[EachandEveryone]

Its for secret santa. The colleague is lovely but shes not girly not into bath stuff or sweeties, however, she likes big jewellery and Grime and celebs. Ive got no idea. I just wondered if any of the celeb perfumes are any good. I really like this young woman shes done well for herself against the odds so i want to get this right! Or else ill just go to Harvey Nics and get her the Rihanna lipstick.

JLo Glow. Smells clean and sort of soapy. Also, IIRC, Jlo Glow Miami.

Not sure they're right for grime loving people though.

I have heard Beyonce does a few nice ones. Heat I think someone here recommended the other week.

Gwen Stefani does one! Maybe that is more suitable grime wise.

Perfume blogger here. Celeb scents are often great because they use a very prolific nose from within the industry, but price them low.

I recommend: SJP Stash- woody, rich, dark, Autumnal.

Rihanna Rogue- suede and apricots. Smells ruinously expensive but isn't.

JLO Glow is a classic- like clean shampooed hair.

Adam Levine for her is a sandalwood and saffron scent that's remarkably good.

If you have a budget in mind, I can make suggestions for good fragrance under ten quid.

I might try and see if i can get a set

Ooh Miss Battleaxe! How cool. You should do an AMA on perfumes!

Can you please recommend a perfume for me? I feel I have no signature scent and am forever trying new ones.

I used to love these discontinued ones:
Dolce&Gabbana By (for nights out)
Armani White (day time)
Gucci Rush2 (summer)

D&G Light Blue smells nice on me and so does Stella McCartney Pop..but both are very summery and day time. I am currently trying Clinique aromatics in White..but am not sure. It almost burns my nose.
I have no idea what to wear now!

Sorry for hijacking but can I get your under £10 suggestions please MissBattleaxe

I think Lovely is horrible.
Scratched the back of my throat like petrol

I love the Madonna one. Truth( ?)
It is like the miller harris Tuberose scent.

Britney Spears has a lovely oceanic scent as well. It manages to be fresh and warm without resorting to vanilla.

I loved that jlo glow one and wore it for a while. It is like you want your natural smell to be.

I like Intimately Beckham.

I would also love to hear the tenner recommendations, please.

Lovely is anything but. Really cheap and nasty smell, which reminds me of zoflora.

Rihanna Nude is a decent celeb perfume. Doesn't smell too overpowering. Apparently the Beyoncé ones are great too.

I bought the madonna one in heatons for a tenner. So i must have been alone liking it if it ended up there!
Not sure it is still available though.

What about davidhasselhoff's cool water? I dont think it is very very expensive but it is more than a tenner.

They all are.

Couple of sjp perfumes on offer In perfume shop at the moment covet - 2 types 100ml £15 and lovely is £20 for 200ml!!
They have quite a few for a tenner, Beyoncé, Rihanna, fcuk, Victoria’s Secret , Vera wang just go under woman’s perfume tab and sort in price order.

Lovely smelled like cat piss on me. Vile stuff imo.
Britney spears Fantasy is nice, but very sweet. Costs £10 for 30ml.

I wouldn’t get scent for a secret Santa. It’s way too personal. What’s your budget? A Fenty lipstick is a good shout tbh.

Yes cat piss. I am mystified by sjp's lovely 🤔

That must be why it’s only £20 for 200ml

My cat will give you 400mls for a tenner! 🤣🐈

What about davidhasselhoff's cool water? I dont think it is very very expensive but it is more than a tenner.

Davidoff Coolwater is nice but it has nothing to do with David Haselhoff.

Paul Smith Rose is a lovely one in my opinion...

Absolutely! Here's my blog post. ( I am Mumsnet affiliated so it's OK) Top Ten fragrances under a tenner. happy to answer questions!

David Hasselhoffs cool water!

This is so funny 😂

OHolyNight I love a !ot of your favourites and my signature in Autumn Winter is Narcisso Rodriguez for her EDT in the black not pink bottle - not EDP. It is absolutely scrummy and rich and musky.
