A WOW perfume that lasts???

[BaconAndAvocado]

I love La Vie Est Belle and Angel because of the fragrance but also because of how long they last on my skin and how much other people, as well as myself, can smell them.

It needs to make a statement and pack a punch....subtlety is verboten!

Any ideas??

It’s my favourite too. My bloke wears Halfeti Cedar in the winter and Castile in the summer, the Halfeti packs a massive punch.

Yet another vote for Clinique Aromatics. The shower gel and body lotion are utterly gorgeous and long lasting. They smell better than the actual perfume but the perfume is better a couple of hours after it's sprayed.

I've just got prada paradoxe, lasts ages !

Ah how could I forget about knowing! I loved this back in the day along with samsara, obsession, paloma
picasso etc

@Lottapianos I’m going to try the Next one, thank you. I always thought you had to pay a fortune for long lasting perfumes.

Guerlain edp’s have fab longevity - samsara, mon Guerlain or shalimar. Also ysl manifesto or black opium.
black orchid and velvet orchid by Tom ford are also good but i find them a bit heady at times, i need to be in the right mood!
One of my fave winter scents is turmeric latte by Lush, really unusual scent and it lasts.
The ones I get the most positive comments on are: mon guerlain (normal edp or intense), black opium or the new pistachio kayali one.

Honestly it's a beautiful perfume, and cheap as chips. Feels way more expensive than it is. Next perfumes are very impressive in general

@MadamVastra Yes, Hypnotic Poison. The first time I smelt it I thought it rather strange. This fragrance is so unusual and so addictive. It’s my comfort fragrance, sexy, cozy, just lovely. Coconut, almond and marzipan.
Clinique Aromatics is also a very memorable scent. I love it on other people, but it doesn’t suit me.

Totally agree! Poeme is an amazing scent

@VerityUnreasonble the dupe for Narcciso Rodriguez for her is available at Lidl occasionally. Actually they are in stock right now. Essence Suddenly d’elle
or something like that. Please excuse spelling. £6.99 for 100 ml in a pink bottle. Really lovely smell and long lasting.

I love my Paris by Yves Saint Laurent.

Angels Share by Kilian - quite sweet and heavy but gorgeous and long lasting. I also love Guerlain Mitsouko but the most recent one I bought doesn't last on me at all - it used to - maybe they've changed the formula or something ?

It seems as though we have similar perfume tastes OP.

I found a bottle of Kenzo Amour when I was on holiday last year and it's gorgeous. I've always liked kenzo fragrances but hadn't tried Amour before. Its warm and musky and unusual.

I love Lush perfumes - they are gorilla perfumes which somehow means they are pure oils and they last foreverrr. My favourite is Lust, which I am unendingly complimented on as it smells like a garden of heavenly jasmine.

Totally agree about Cashmere from Next. Apparently it's a dupe of Sensuous by Estee Lauder which I bought but prefer the Next one.

Dior addict
Guerlain always lasts well on me too

Any perfume will stick for ages if you moisture your skin before applying it. The secret is the moisturiser, not the perfume! Choose a fragrance free moisturiser and after absorbing apply the perfume on top then watch the magic happen!

If you like Angel then Alien is in the same vein.
I also find Clinique happy lasts ages on me - a bit more subtle though.

Ooh thank you, I'll look out for it!

I have and love Poême, always get compliments!!

Also had Alien in the last, fab scent.

I loved Poison in the 80s...is Hypnotic a similar vibe?
