What’s that scent?

I’m on the hunt for a nice light fragrance to wear to wear every day to work .

in a couple of occasions, whilst out and about, a woman will go by and I can smell their fragrance which smells lemony.
can’t work out if it’s a fragrance or maybe a body lotion worn, as it is very light - but I love the smell of it. It smells light and fresh without being overpowering.

what could it be? Any ideas?

or any other ideas of something light and pleasant to wear that isn’t sickly sweet .

Thanks for reading

L'Occitane lemon verbena is a lovely fresh slightly lemony scent! Might be worth a sniff?

O de Lancome is lovely.
Very fresh and quite lemony.

It's quite expensive but it's been my favourite for many years.

Escentual molecules no 1?

Could be Hermes Mediterranean Garden, that is wonderful.

Tesco's £1

I've not bought or smelled it ^^

You mentioned it was light so I googled lemon body spray.

That depends.

OP, have you felt an overwhelming urge to chase after them and thrust bouquets of flowers at them?

If not, it’s not Impulse.

Clarins Eau Dynamistante maybe?

Such a fresh gorgeous fragrance.

TwilightSkies · 02/05/2024 19:13

Bal D’Afrique by Byredo would be my guess.
Its lovely! I don’t think anyone could dislike it.
It’s lemony but not a typical freshie fragrance. I think it can be worn all year old as it’s quite soft but has good lasting power.

I should add, I have the Perfume Parlour dupe! It’s spot on.

It used to be, the reformulated version is terrible and not a patch on the old one.

If you go into eden perfumes website and search "lemon" it'll give you a load of suggestions. They do a sample box of 5 for £39 so you could order that to see which ones you like.

Dolce & Gabbana Devotion if it smells like sweet, cakey lemon candy. A fantastic scent.
