Help me find a perfume before my head explodes with fumes from the four I tested at lunch

[Oliveoil]

have been wafting around stores being accosted by orange ooompa loompa women

have got 2 diff Guerlain on wrists and 2 others on sniffy sticks

no idea which is which now!

please tell me what you use so I can sniff out some more

[headache from overpowering smell]

Jo Malone - Lime, Basil & Mandarin or Fremch Linen.

Both utterly heavenly IMO.

And conveniently not stocked by dept stores so you avoid the ooompa loompas!

Tiempe Passate by Antonias Flowers-pure heaven IMO but only available at SpaceNK or mail order
Oh and very expensive

very traditional - White Linen (Estee Laude)

yes but how will I know if I like them or not if I can't sniff them?

do they send out samples?

oooh more posts

I have a Space Nk but try and avoid it tbh, I get sucked in to a black hole of spending

how expensive is expensive?

not though to EL tbh

[adds to list]

Do you live in London?

Manchester

we have decent shops up here you know

number 5

I am wearing DKNY Delicious - Red. The Green one is gorgeous too.

Narsisco Rodriquez, D&G the one, Versace Crystal Noir, dior poison (deep red bottle). All available at Manchester Selfridges TC & Exchange sq. Good luck . x

a lot of folks don't like it, but if you prefer a heavier, Oriental scent and you don't hold a scent well like me, then I like Samsara for Autumn.

back in the day when i had disposable income, i liked Fracas and it smelled good on me.

Stella, or Ck one in the summer.

ilove this one by Diptyque.

am wondering why I started this thread tbh as now I will have to try all these out!!

one of the guerlain ones is nice on the sniffy stick, vetiva (?) I think

their new one pongs to high heaven [vom]

I have just ran out of Stella McCartney

prada
bulgari

I really don't like strong smelling perfumes at all, so I use the extremely light Philosophy fragrances. I particularly like amazing grace but [[http://www.philosophy.com/web/store/prod_baby-grace-fragrance____44053_44051_78278 baby grace is also nice and clean smelling.

Im not keen on guerlains new one either tbh nor do I like the new bvlgari one...

So wanted the "juliette has a gun" one...BUT think it was the name I loved and not the smell .

Oops try again!

amazing grace3

baby grace

penhaglions bluebell or violet are georg

Depends what you like and what likes you - some perfumes smell lovely on me but horrible on friends & vice versa.

I normally switch between Coco, Paul Smith Rose, Boudoir or Obsession. Occasionally flirt with CK Contradiction but it wears off too soon imho.

Got given a sample of Lancome's new one today (having spent small fortune on make up there), Magnifique - it's rose and spices and nice for a daytime perfume - not too heavy. Was squirted at 1pm and am still able to smell it on my wrist now, so it's fairly long-lasting.

I tried coco mademoiselle the other day and loved it...

according to article in G2 yesterday... the bestest one is mitsouko. my mum rang me to brag as tis her fave.
is ver nice, i agree.

currently using a prada one i think...
