New fragrance help

5 replies

I am looking for a new fragrance but not a perfume if you know what I mean! I hate the transfer of strong perfume onto DS anyway.

I have been using Clarins Eau Dynamisante but am wanting something new. Tried Philosophy but that smells like toilet cleaner!

Any recs?

Thanks

Inis is supposed to smell like the sea

I wear it during the day. It is like not really wearing a perfume. You just feel fresher when you sprit\ a bit on. But it does have a slight smell of course.

It's quite cheap too. The normal one is lovely. Not the Inis Rose which is gooey.

The new version of Chanel No. 5 is nice.

Tried it in 'The Shops' today, as I had seen it advertised and am quite tempted to ask for it for Christmas.

It's quite musky, which may appeal if you like that sort of not-too-feminine scent.

Otherwise, I would say, try a Jo Malone cologne. Lots of them a designed to be worn by men or women so have that fresh, chypre scent that you like in the Clarins, and aren't too 'perfumey'

I'm with you on that as love Eau Dynamisante but don't really wear perfume that much. Thought might be nice for Xmas - trouble is I think you really need to try them out as they smell different on each person. Will have to go round the dept stores collecting samples!

Be Spot by Benefit is nice, light and citrusy.
