You'll probably like Bvlgari Omnia Crystalline.
It has a similar lightness to it.

Juliette had a gun not a perfume superdose

MatchaTea1 · 25/12/2025 20:53

My top 3:
L'heure bleue by Guerlain
Hypnotic Poison by Dior
Luna by Penhaligons

Acqua Di Parma: Blu Mediterraneo, Arancia Di Capri is my absolute favourite. It's fresh, light, can be worn on any occasion and lasts all day.

I second that! 😍

It varies from person to person, but I have recently bought Miss Dior Essence and it's lovely. Also like Cartier La Panthere and Estee's Modern Muse.

@MatchaTea1 I'm glad you like L'Heure Bleu - it is lovely, on other people. On me, it develops into something similar to Harpic.

Idontjetwashthefucker · 25/12/2025 21:26

Barenia by Hermes is my current favourite

ChilliMochaCoco · 25/12/2025 21:27

Chanel Allure my absolute favourite

FurForksSake · 25/12/2025 21:29

Perfumes smell different on different people, I think you have to go and try them and wear them for a day.

But I concur on the Chanel.

FlatErica · 25/12/2025 21:31

L’eau merveilleuse by Hermes!

Carnal Flower Frederic Malle
vol de nuit (1933, Guerlain)
summer of 93 by Norfolk Natural Living
portrait of a Lady Frederic Malle

I like INTENSE perfumes

Chanel Jersey (lavender based from the Exclusifs range)

It WAS Stella by Stella McCartney. I'm still in deep mourning. Still hunting to find another that hits me in the emotional & olfactory zones in the same way.

Flora by Gucci gorgeous gardenia is incredible!

I REALLY wanted to love it. But it smelled like rotting garden waste on me. I'm happy it's lovely on you, as it smells divine in the bottle.

Really need the laughing emoji back! 🤣 It's so weird how it smells TOTALLY different on others.

Dontgochasingrainbows · 25/12/2025 21:42

Tom Ford is my fav.

I hate Chanel, Dior and thick, sweet, perfumes.

myotheraccountsa · 25/12/2025 21:45

Penhaligon's Iris Prima but it got discontinued :(

sharkstale · 25/12/2025 22:08

The new Jimmy Choo.

Yup. I always think it's mental how different things smell on different skin.

Same - as soon as I smelt it I knew I'd found my lifelong, signature scent. Then it was discontinued 😭 I've never found anything even remotely similar and am still eking out a few drops of my last bottle for special occasions. So I smell faintly of it today for the first time in a while!

cupfinalchaos · 25/12/2025 22:41

Penhaligons Luna. Sexiest ever.

psych25 · 25/12/2025 23:15

Miss Dior. Never found anything I love as much since DH got me a bottle for my 40th earlier this year. He got me a nice new bottle this Christmas too 😍
