I love 212 sexy. I'm probably a bit old for it now but it just gives me that feeling.

Love Marc Jacobs Lola as well and cacharel Noa.

NabooThatsWho · 27/07/2019 20:02

Dove oil! I love it, get so many compliments. Love the freshness of it.

Also a couple of Chanel Chance dupes from PP. Tendre and Vive I think they are.

I also like Alien but only in winter, too sweet for summer.

Cacharel Noa is quite lovely.

TompotBlenny · 27/07/2019 20:03

Penhaligon's Lothair. I love it so much. Whenever I wear it, someone always remarks on it in a good way ("what is that? It's gorgeous!") so it must work well on me.

evilharpy · 27/07/2019 20:39

Tom Ford:
Amber Absolute
Rive d'Ambre
Tobacco Vanille (but I have to really be in the mood for it and lots of people seem to dislike it)
Vanille Fatale
Black Orchid

Jo Malone Lime Basil & Mandarin but it lasts about five minutes on me :(

Estee Lauder Sensuous

My favourite perfume of all time was Nina Ricci Les Belles de Ricci Delices d'Epices. Long since discontinued and I'm afraid to buy it on ebay in case it's gone off. I have a half full bottle that I wear when I really need a treat.

Another favourite was Cacharel Gloria. Also discontinued but the Perfume Parlour dupe is a dead ringer. I wish they'd bring it back; it really was lovely and seems to have had a lot of fans here and on Fragrantica etc.

puffyeyedsugarmonster · 27/07/2019 20:43

Chanel Coco Mademoiselle

Jo Malone Blackberry & Bay but gutted it only lasts 2 mins, I think it's my all time favourite.

MissPollyHadADolly19 · 27/07/2019 20:43

Tom Ford Orchid Soliel - my forever favourite!

Flower bomb
Roses, by Paul Smith
Rose perfume Evelyn Crabtree

I guess I like rose perfume. Smile

MsMightyTitanAndHerTroubadours · 27/07/2019 21:25

Poison ..the original, the new one suffices, but it's not the same
Cinnabar although I have not had that for years
Gloria Vanderbilt, found one in TKMax a while back
Karma from Lush, but am loath to give them my money bastards
Insolence my newest find, but it is very like Gloria Vanderbilt.

I am very old!

Chanel Gabrielle

Peony by Stella McCartney is my fave for going out, although I like Daisy and Lola for the daytime.

If I'm keeping it classic I also love Chanel's Chance.
