Summer perfumes:
Annick Goutal Eau d'Hadrien (citrussy)
Annick Goutal Eau du Sud (sharper, slightly more unisex citrus)
Yardley Jade (deadringer for Chanel Cristalle)
Liz Earle 1
4160 Ealing Green
Prada Infusions d'Iris (soapy and clean)
Chanel Exclusif Bel Respiro
Chanel Exclusif Paris Deauville
Dior Diorissimo (lily of the valley)
Cacharel Noa

All lovely and "summery"
Loads of the Jo Malone style colognes would fit the summer bill as well, but last as long as a gnat's piss so buy the dupes from Perfume Parlour!

Moonflower12 · 06/04/2019 23:18

I have always worn Chanel Coco or Mademoiselle.

Just discovered the White Company Noir and their Blanc. Really lovely and long lasting.

I also love Mon Guerlain.

TracyBeakerSoYeah · 07/04/2019 00:41

Favourite summer perfumes so far are:
Liz Earle No 100
Michael Kors Woman
Calvin Klein Truth
Clarins Sunshine Fragrance
but having had the Floral Street Discovery Set I'm going to treat myself to London Poppy & also Ylang Ylang Expresso.

slinkysaluki · 07/04/2019 02:24

Dolce and Gabbana The One
Chanel Coco
Ghost the original one in frosted blue bottle
Lancome Tresor

Richlyfruited · 07/04/2019 07:34

Yy Yardley Jade is very similar to Cristalle! Lasts all day too.

For me Estée Lauder Bronze Goddess is summer in a bottle Smile

Would definitely recommend trying the new range of M&S (yes really..M&S Grin) perfumes. They are really lovely. I've just bought this one but the whole new range is impressive so will be going back for more:

CherryPavlova · 07/04/2019 07:38

I only ever wear Jo Malone Red Roses. I’m often complimented on my smell.

lotusbell · 07/04/2019 08:24

My faves at the moment are Lush's Cardamom Coffee and Yog Nog. They really linger, I smell like cake and lots of people ask me about them. I like strong perfume and I wear it for me so I want to be able to smell myself! Thete are so many I'd love to try and I always seem to like the expensive ones or the ones that are discontinued!

GreyHare · 07/04/2019 08:53

I used like Balenciga Florabotanica and Rosabotanica for summer but I wear Clinique Aromatics in Black every single day as I love it.

bingirl · 07/04/2019 08:59

Estée Lauder Bronze Goddess - my summer go to.

JaceLancs · 07/04/2019 13:52

I have 2 different versions of Ellie Saab resort collection
Also like guerlain terracotta
Issy miyake summer is lovely but very light

HaventGotAllDay · 07/04/2019 15:56

Jake- it's even better, it's slightly sharper!
One of the Perfumista threads not-so-secret secrets! I spotted it on (iirc) allbeauty the other week at about £8.
