TOTALLY 👍

Maison Francis…….. well actually the FM copy of it for £10-£20 as the real fragrance is £250 a bottle! I’ve been told it’s a very sophisticated sexy smell! I’m happy with that!

DramaAlpaca · 27/02/2023 23:09

@Littlewhitecat l so agree with you on Lady Vengeance, it's stunning.

HereComesMaleficent · 27/02/2023 23:11

Allure - Chanel

Icequeen01 · 27/02/2023 23:15

Pure Musc by Narciso Rodriguez. Every time I wear it people ask what perfume I'm wearing. It's divine.

Jooliusreezer · 27/02/2023 23:17

Daisy, Marc Jacobs. Such a cheap daily one but I always, always get comments.

NotDrowningJustCrowing · 27/02/2023 23:17

On any given day, Chanel no.5 because I still love it after all these years, Opium, ditto and a really good Flowerbomb dupe because I love Flowerbomb but found out through a sample, I couldn't afford to buy a bottle so went in search of a dupe. The dupe is nearly empty so I'm ordering a new one on Friday.

Le labo Another 13

Perry34 · 27/02/2023 23:37

Cloud by Ariana & black opium are my most complimented

I used to know someone who worked at lush. She smelt of lush.

It gets stuck in your clothes. I would get the bus home after work and the driver would sniff and say "working today then?"
Would wash and dry my clothes and they still smelled of lush
Once caused an argument between a couple as he said he could smell the lush shop, she was saying it was nowhere near. Ended up interrupting them and saying it was me as I had just finished work

I can’t go in to lush, gives me headache due to the smell. It would be my nightmare to have deal with lush smells 😭 I actually have liked some of their individual products but the smell is just over powering

Best scent I ever smelled on a woman was a gorgeous jasmine scent. Not cloying but so vibrant. She was a French fashion person. No idea what it was, but I can smell it purely on memory. If I ever find it... Not that I’d carry of off like she did

HelloBunny · 28/02/2023 00:06

And for a man, it was a gorgeous well-put-together guy. Oh the smell, it was captivating! I almost followed him, to ask. But realised that such a scent wouldn’t have the same effect combined with my DH...

SouperNoodle · 28/02/2023 00:06

Honestly, out of all the perfumes I've had (ranging from fairly cheap to expensive), the most compliments I've had were from Lady Gaga - Fame

HelloBunny · 28/02/2023 00:07

So, the perfume has to suit the person!

WhatIsThisss · 28/02/2023 00:11

Cartier Carat
Haven’t seen it around in years but L De Lolita Lempicka would always have be stopped in the street.

DaenerysD · 28/02/2023 00:13

Initio - Oud de Greatness I think it's called and another in a black bottle I have and it too is always complemented is Aqua di Parma Oud.

There's a theme there somewhere 😂

LoveMyPiano · 28/02/2023 00:21

Joy Intense - Dior (also the original)~
Also
Allure Sensuelle - getting harder to find now (not so fond of Allure itself though).

These both are always commented on. More night-time fragrances, I would say.

Fraaahnces · 28/02/2023 00:22

I had people following me to ask what I was wearing when I could find Trussardi Skin. Bastards discontinued it.
Balenciaga L’Essence Balenciaga came close. So did B Intense by Balenciaga in an entirely different way. Both also discontinued. BASTARDS! (I am taking this very personally.)
Since then, Aura Sensuelle (bloody hard to find) and Aura (the original - luckily cheap at my local chemist, so I may buy up stock). I also love Alien, but not until about half an hour after I spray it.

Stella, Jo Malone Poppy & Barley, Diptyque Eau de Sens or Armani My Way. I started wearing the last one after stopping someone and asking what she was wearing. She smelled divine, and I’ve since had people stop me for all of the above. I cannot understand why they stopped making Stella, it was the perfect perfume imo.

It has driven me INSANE not being able to get Stella. It's been my signature perfume for 10 years. It smells like me; my kids say that smells of mum; DH says it smells like home. I'm so frickin sad.

I've been using the Eau de Toilette - it's fine, but it is a slightly different formulation and not quite the same.

Any suggestions lovely folks? I am bereft.

evtheria · 28/02/2023 00:24

Oxford & Cambridge (Czech and Speake) gets me many compliments in summer. Often people tell me they're surprised as 'they usually dislike lavender'

@HamHand Agreed on Stella, not found anything similar.
