Fragrances you wore as a teen

I was a teen in the 90s. I remember everybody going crazy for Body Shop Dewberry but don't really remember what it smelled like?

I got some Sunflowers perfume and wore WAAAY too much of it, ALL the time. My friend's mum asked her to tell me to stop wearing it at their house. 😂😂😂 The smell turns my stomach now.

@Greyflowers did that have a little pearl on it? It seems to have triggered a long forgotten memory!

Amor amor by Cacharel
Samsara
Impulse Temptation
Issey Miake eau D'issey

It was in a pink bottle from body shop

Salvador Dali. i still love it, although you don't see it much any more.
Gucci Rush...I loved the perfume..hated the bottle/box.
Clinique Aromatics Elixir

Passerillage · 24/03/2023 12:21

Impulse O2 - I stand by that one, it was incredible. There was another impulse I loved too, but O2 was the best. NIRVANA. Impulse Nirvana. It was gorgeous but heavier.

Body Shop White Musk obviously. HATED Dewberry with a passion. My best friend loved it. Yuck.

But also Monsoon had a fragrance in a gorgeous bottle - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/354580706605 - an aunt gave it to me for Christmas, and I thought I was sooooo sophistated.

Body Shop Activist was divine too.

…… can you still get Charlie? I’d love to sniff a tester, to see if it takes me back to the 80s!

I loved Tribe and Giorgio Bevely Hills (purple one) and Cerutti 1881.

Really wish they'd bring Tribe back. Was such a unique scent.

I was a teenager in the 70s and was a big fan of the Goya fragrances. My favourite was Aqua Manda and there was also Aqua Citra, Meadowson (I think), Black Rose and I think there was another.
nice fragrances and not too expensive. I loved them!
