How many bottles of perfume do you own?

I've just been sorting mine out and it's rather a lot. 78 bottles. I will say (in my poor defence!) that my job means I'm sent quite a bit and well, I've clearly bought quite a lot over the years. There's vintage bottles in there too and discontinued perfumes and remarkably - none have gone off

How about you?

@LifeAfterBreastCancer you can see my collection here if this link works! PERFUME

Oh wow! That explains how you knew the exact number of bottles you own @OneNightTimeMenaceStrikesBack! V impressive. Will have a closer look.

My wife has one, Pure Musc..narcissi Rodriguez soon to be two on her Birthday. I bought her Dkny Be Delicious.Luckily my daughter who had it bought for her by her friend doesn't like it which is good because she nicks my wifes all the time.But her friend loves it so that's ok.

  1. An extremely large bottle of Next Eau Nude which I spray liberally every day as and when, Estee Lauder Beautiful Belle which is my evening perfume and then a couple of handbag sizes of Next Cashmere and SJP Lovely.

I'm going to go up to the V&A in the summer to see an exhibition and plan to wander back to the station via Chanel in Sloane Street and treat myself to a bottle of Allure (which is my all time favourite) for my birthday.

I didn't know you could do that on Fragrantica, One NightMenace. That's really useful!

Bought a new bottle today Hmm

Just a little one! 10ml Tom Ford Leather

I've just ordered a sample of Glossier You, so I guess I'm up to 6? I thought 5 was pretty extravagant, tbh. I use them all though. I've started wearing perfume every day since lockdown began because it makes me feel "done" and cheered up in only about 10 seconds.

I just scored a miniature bottle of Coco today.

Roseyleaf · 07/05/2021 23:04

More than 50, less than 100 spray bottles, mostly classics and designer, very few niche.

Then there's about 100 fragrance oils from an indie company, which I used to collect.

Random question, but if anyone would know it would probably be someone on this thread...

Has anyone smelled the newest Good Girl perfume by Carolina Herrera? The one with the red on the bottle?

I have 2 of the Good Girl perfumes - the original and the one with the glittery bottle and love them both. Went to Boots today and saw they had the one with the red but they're all locked up and not a soul in sight to help me have a sniff.

Just wanted to know what anyone thought of it if they've smelled it

None. Can't stand the stuff even on others. Gives me a headache 😂

  1. One my mum gave me a partly used bottle of Shalimar, tried it twice but gone off it. One my late husband gave me 4 years ago. I do like perfume but mostly on other people.

4 and I thought that was a lot!
