If you had to wear one forever, what would it be?

I think mine would be Chanel Chance Eau Tendre.

I wear a few different perfumes but my absolute favourite, and the one I wear even if I’m home all day, is Eau Dynamisante. I have a bottle in every bag, my work laptop bag, my glove box, a kitchen drawer, my office. I just adore the smell.

It's a great scent.

Guerlain Shalimar for me, although it attracts too many insects for comfort in the summer.

Bvlgari Jasmin Noir from 2008. Discontinued 😭😭😭😭😭😭

Day99 · 28/07/2024 20:52

Changes too often.. but at the moment - if money was no object, LV Symphony. Otherwise Aerin Mediterranean honeysuckle.

Chanel no 5

AngryLikeHades · 28/07/2024 20:56

'Vogue' by Milton Lloyd perfumes.
It is a copy of Chanel no.5 that I have never owned but have sampled etc.
I believe that it is stronger and better than the latter.
I am in love with the fact that I can own a complex perfume that smells very similar to one that I like so much and it smells very expensive.
'Vogue' lasts all day and is only £5 a bottle and lasts all year with heavy daily use.

Chanel allure

Aworldofmyown · 28/07/2024 20:59

Chanel No 5 l'eau or Chanel Gabrielle.

I'm always on the hunt for Armani for Women (the first one they launched) from about 1984. I have a tiny 10ml sample bottle I got from Etsy I wear on special occasions and when I miss my sister (she died and bought me my first perfume). I think it was discontinued about 20 years ago! The rest of the time I wear Chanel Coco body lotion.

💐 I'm so sorry about your sister. I hope they bring it back one day.

Poison.

TwoLeftSocksWithHoles · 28/07/2024 21:04

Favorite perfume would be that of £50 notes.

The downside is that Labradors at airports won't leave you alone.

BlastedPimples · 28/07/2024 21:06

Diorissimo or Chanel No19 or Safari.

BurntBroccoli · 28/07/2024 21:09

Used to be Gucci Envy before it was discontinued.
I wear and love Flora Gucci now.

Possiblynotever · 28/07/2024 21:09

Mitzuko by Guerlain. I think it would probably classify as an old lady perfume. But it is rather unique.

Starlightstarbright3 · 28/07/2024 21:11

I have lots of more expensive perfumes .. however lately have fallen in love with Zara perfumes .. much cheaper - last well

I really love that one though I no longer wear it after my son said I smelled like an old lady! 😭

VerityUnreasonble · 28/07/2024 21:16

La vie est belle

Although I do also have a fondness for CK Truth (discontinued) and Marc Jacobs Decadence.

ChimpanzeeThatMonkeyNews · 28/07/2024 21:19

Ysatis by Givenchy.

It's a superlative perfume.

happychristmoose · 28/07/2024 21:39

@CakeAtFour could you let me know the dupe please?

RenoDakota · 28/07/2024 21:40

Chanel Coco Mademoiselle. I wear it every day and absolutely love it. It makes me happy.

FlutteryButterfly · 28/07/2024 21:42

Garlickest · 28/07/2024 00:59

I'm see-sawing between Chanel Coco (not Mademoiselle) and L'air du Desert Marocain. The Tauer's a bit rich for everyday use but I've been wearing Coco for 34 years!

Probably need to go on a sample spree ...

Do they still do Coco Chanel? -not to be confused with coco mademoiselle

honeyfox · 28/07/2024 21:42

Summer - Beach Walk by Maison Martin Margiela.

Winter - Hypnotic Poison.

LizzieBennett73 · 28/07/2024 21:45

Tom Ford White Patchouli is my most worn, closely followed by Joy by Dior.

AdoraBell · 28/07/2024 21:45

Givenchy 111
