if I love O by Lancome what should I buy. They have bloody discontinued it....😓

Oh no, it's so annoying when something you love is discontinued.

If I recall correctly, O de Lancome is fresh and citrussy with a woody base. A few fragrances along similar lines that you could try:

Cristalle EDT by Chanel
Cristalle Eau Verte by Chanel, still citrussy and fresh but less woody
No 19 EDT by Chanel possibly, it has that opening fresh sharpness though it's also been discontinued (sob!)
24 Faubourg by Hermes
Eau des Merveilles by Hermes
Fidji by Guy Laroche, another citrussy woody vintage that's still available online.

I don't think it's discontinued...

It was unavailable for a while but is back in stock on the Lancôme website.

This list makes me think I should try to find the Lancôme perfume that the OP likes, a few of my favourites i this

Thank you @DramaAlpaca

As a young woman I wore No.19 a lot but I changed or it changed and it started to give me a headache.

The dry down on O is wonderful for me.

I will try the others you mentioned.

but someone said O is back on their wedsite so I may not be doomed afterall!

That's fantastic news, OP!

summersoonsurely · 22/04/2023 19:42

Ahhh. Glad you found it OP. I love it.. if they discontinue it I would be very upset too.

I've never smelt the others in the range.. are they very similar?
