It's my birthday next week so I want to treat myself to something light & fresh that I can wear every day but something that makes people think ummm she smells good!!

I tried the new Valentino Rock and Rose the other day - its lovely! Very light and summery....

I like 2 that I've seen recently (but not bought yet!) YSL have a summer version of Paris out at the moment. It's flowery but much lighter than the original. Also Jean Paul Gaultier have one out - I think it's called Classique. It's in a beautiful bottle and again much lighter than the original which I don't like at all.

The prob with Chanel No 5 is that my MIL wears it and so DH cannot come near me for a nuzzle if I put it on....

Chanel Chrystalle (sp!) is a beautiful scent, also D&G Light Blue

Tom ford for Estee Lauder it's called something like azuree soliel?

I've bought two bottles of it as it's limited edition and I think it's really lovely.

I'm liking the Clarins Eau Soleil just now.

Am not really a perfume type but my MIL bought me 'Green Tea' and it is very nice and light.

alipiggie · 28/07/2007 20:21

Davidoff Cool Water for Women (original) Love it. Elizabeth Arden Green Tea.

I'm loving DKNY Be Delicious at the moment. Really fresh, fruity and light smelling.

Budababe · 28/07/2007 21:30

I love Be Delicious too.

Will try some of the other suggestions though as have been wearing for 2 years.

sylvev · 28/07/2007 21:37

I love Chance by Chanel and a new lighter version called eau fraiche (I think) is very summery.Plus, I love Light blue by D&G, really lifting.

Toothyboy · 28/07/2007 21:48

One of my colleagues wears something called Clean or Really Clean or something like that. No idea who it's by but it's lovely, and d'ya know what it smells really clean !!

Muddytwoshoes · 28/07/2007 21:54

Space NK do one called Laughter - really nice & light but sexy too - do a lovely body & bath range too to complement

Picked up Kenzo Summer at the airport (it was a rush job as the flight was boarding at the time) but I really like it, very summery.
