Recommend me a "Wow,what perfume are you wearing?" perfume!

[MonkeyTennis34]

Looking fur a strong smelling, signature type perfume.

Just finished my bottle of Portrait of a Lady.

I guess I'm looking for an "in your face" type perfume!

Solidarity friend, solidarity xx

I've had wild amounts of comments on michael kors midnight shimmer

I've always been asked what I'm wearing ( in a good way) with Chloe - roses and Marc Jacob's decadence

Chance by Chanel (the floral one)

Jean Paul Gaultier - Le Classique - often get people asking what it is - hopefully for the right reasons!

Would also echo Samsara by Guerlain - a beautiful smell that will forever remind me of my Grandma 💕

YSL Libre - I’ve been asked lots of times when I’m wearing this .

Another one for YSL libre intense.

I get complemented on

L'interdit by Givenchy

Ode to dullness by Juliet has a gun

@BrummiMummi samsara always reminds me of my divorce at 28 - my ex H hated it and I loved it and went and bought a huge bottle once divorce through!!

Why on earth would you want an 'in your face' fragrance? That's grim. I cross the road / move tables / take a different seat / leave the queue when someone with an obnoxiously 'loud' scent is in my vicinity. Urgh.

The fragrance that almost always gets me praise and compliments is Molecule 01. I know it's a marmite thing and that some people can't really smell it at all, but I love it.

I second Paloma Picasso for winter.

Chanel chance or ysl libre .
Also love Gucci guilty , the purple one ( elixir )

@WarmthAndDepth I agree! Who wants to sit next to someone who smells really strongly of any perfume?

I tried that in the shop out of curiosity. In the next shop the person on the checkout was asking me what it was and seemed genuinely blown away by how great it smelt. I hated the smell unfortunately.

Alien by Thierry Mulger

Goldfield and Banks Bohemian Lime
I'm on my 2nd bottle....loads of compliments

How about trying Estée Lauder Youth Dew? It's a classic and is my go to in Winter.
Saving up for Portrait of a Lady. Commented on it whilst talking to an estate agent once and was wowed by it!

Wow!
Thanks all for so many suggestions.

I've only tried a fraction of them...Angel, Alien.

Planning on a London trip soon so will hopefully make it to Liberty which I think has many of the perfumes mentioned.

I often run out of arm space to try them out!

For those wanting to try perfumes don't forget about the dupes. I've used Perfume Parlour and they're great but there's also The Essence Vault plus others! What I like is that you can essentially try the perfume before paying £££ if you want to buy the real thing.

Most of the Estee Lauder classics are quite strong. I love Knowing, Azuree (don't think they do Alliage any more, boo!) Private Collection .I also love Spellbound.

I've been asked about Jo Malone ones (I'm not Jo Malone btw despite my username! 😂) by strangers on the Tube etc. One woman said "Wow, it smells so expensive."

Yes. Yes, it was indeed. 😩

I loved My insolence , softer than original , was gutted when they discontinued it !

This is my favourite! I get compliments every time I wear it. Such a bargain and smells beautiful

People's tastes are so different.
I can't abide the smell of Pomegranate Noir or Aldi's Pomegranate dupe. It makes me heave.
Likewise Mugler's Angel

The two perfumes I wear which regularly get comments are

Molecule 01

Chanel no 5 - people literally stop me and ask me what it is. Especially men.
