What perfume gets you the most compliments? No one ever seems to notice mine, perhaps I'm not putting enough on..

Charlie Red. Seriously. I always get nice comments and no-one recognises it.
I make my own variation of Lush's Rose Petal Jam too, using perfume oils. I always get nice comments about that.

L'air du desert marocain by Andy Tauer.

And the complete other end of the spectrum, a perfume oil that I bought on Amazon for pennies, called Soft. Lemony vanilla, always gets a compliment

MrsCobbit · 06/08/2022 21:37

Chanel Coco and, increasingly, Calvin Klein Obsession.

Calvin Klein - Euphoria

MissStress · 06/08/2022 21:53

I always wear either Chanel coco or Chanel mademoiselle - sometimes both together - and they both (& both together) get a lot of compliments.

iamspt · 06/08/2022 22:00

Dior Addict (Dark Blue bottle)

Dolce and G light blue

Tom Ford perfumes smell like blokes aftershave to me

iamspt · 06/08/2022 22:04

Interested to know what Portrait of A Lady smells like! Given how expensive it is and you can't buy a sample

AmbushedByCake1 · 06/08/2022 22:04

Santal 33 by le labo. I only wore it a few times because it makes me feel nauseous but other people have stopped me and asked what is is.

Society · 06/08/2022 22:09

La Vie est Belle or Cerruti 1881 Pour Femme

Britney's Fantasy is the one I use to spray about in the loo after a stinky poo so it's lost its charm for me 🤣

Anything by Jo Malone and Light Blue by Dolce and Gabanna

Beaubeagle · 06/08/2022 22:47

Baccarat Rouge 540. I’ve been stopped in the street by random people asking what it is.

BashfulClam · 06/08/2022 22:59

Bvlgari pour femme but it’s been discontinued and I think one of the other sects is meant to smell the same.

MarthaMayWhovier · 06/08/2022 23:00

Just ordered Halfeti, Molecule 01 and Portrait Of A Lady samples. 🤦‍♀️ I need to hide S&B
