I love perfume and was hoping people might have suggestions for a new one I could try?

I don’t have a budget as such but I’d be looking for something you can buy on the high street, the perfume shop or boots type places.

I’d mostly be wearing it for day. I’m 39. I like citrus, lavender and rose.

Perfumes I like

Ghost Deep Night (and the Ghost one in the orange bottle of the same shape - eclipse, maybe?)
CK One (and CK One summer)
Tommy Girl
Ultra Violet by Paco Rabonne (years ago, didn’t like it when I smelled it recently)
Contradiction

Thank you!

Prada Infusions d'Iris is yummy.

Paris by YSL?

I would suggest the Glossier perfume although that's only available online. It sounds like the kind of thing you'd like though.

I sniffed Issey Miyake's L'Eau d'Issey Pure Petale de Nectar blindly recently and it really reminded me of Tommy Girl.

Thanks for the suggestions, I’ll have a look at them.

I love Ghost Deep Night too - Calvin Klein Euphoria appeals to me in the same way that it does!

Armani My way

LaBellina · 28/05/2021 02:53

You like clean and fresh smelling scents by the sound of it. I second Infusion d’Iris by Prada and would recommend Pure White Linen by Estée Lauder.

ArabeI · 28/05/2021 02:55

You might like Guerlain Isolence as a citrusy floral.

LunaNorth · 28/05/2021 03:06

Chanel Gabrielle Essence.

Opus V by Amouage

MissBattleaxe · 28/05/2021 03:56

@ElaineMarieBenes Opus V is about £200!

MissBattleaxe · 28/05/2021 03:58

Try The Perfume Society Discovery Boxes. There's one at the moment called Launches We Love and it's got about 12 different samples in it. Also try my blog for ideas www.iscentyouaday.com

I like Elizabeth Arden Green tee, but it does not last too long. By the way CK One is amazing.

ElaineMarieBenes · 28/05/2021 05:50

@MissBattleaxe I know but as there is no budget I thought it fitted the bill! It’s my favourite (just bought some - though duty free so not at U.K. price!)

ElaineMarieBenes · 28/05/2021 05:52

Ooh sorry got carried away at ‘no budget’ - I missed ‘Boots/High Street’ - I’ll get my coat!!!!
