Coco is my favourite! Lucky you getting Chanel for Christmas.

purplepeony · 24/12/2009 14:01

no 19.

no. 5 gives me a headache and rest are just yuck imo.

Allure might be okay but I'm not a great fan.

WilfSell · 24/12/2009 14:02

The only wearable one is Cristalle. IMHO.

Rainbowinthesky · 24/12/2009 14:02

How much is it? I never normally wear perfume? Is it really expensive?
I like coco.

I don't like any chanel

AstronomyDomine · 24/12/2009 14:03

I've got Allure and am getting Mademoiselle this year... it's lovely!

traceybath · 24/12/2009 14:03

coco or no 19

coco - more musky
no 19 - more floral

purplepeony · 24/12/2009 14:03

They are all around £35 for smallest eau de toilette- have a look online at Boots.

Rainbowinthesky · 24/12/2009 14:04

Is there a cheaper perfume that's really nice? Dh going into London in a moment.

purplepeony · 24/12/2009 14:04

no 19 is a woody floral- not a sweet floral.

purplepeony · 24/12/2009 14:05

?? why did you ask for chanel then? how about giving a price range instead?

Rainbowinthesky · 24/12/2009 14:06

Cos I really like the smell of coco last year!! I didn't realise it was so much!
Still, tis christmas once a year....

Get Stella instead. Bloody lovely, and I can't wait to open my bottle of it tomorrow

Rainbowinthesky · 24/12/2009 14:07

How about under £20?

OP posts:
AstronomyDomine · 24/12/2009 14:07

SJP - Covet... I love it! It's around £28 for 100ml.

MaryAnnSingleton · 24/12/2009 14:08

Paul Smith Extreme is v nice

AstronomyDomine · 24/12/2009 14:12

Rainbow - check out the Perfume Shop while you're online

PandaEis · 24/12/2009 14:29

i would go for something a bit cheaper myself as chanel really is for a specific taste.

my DH bought me the pink be delicious from DKNY which is VERY nice

i think that if you barely wear perfume, something a little less...musky(?) would be better.

my dad bought theirry mugler angel for my mum which is nice and quite sweet.
it would probaby be a good idea to go with him and sample some different perfumes and choose one you know you will like to wear

AstronomyDomine · 24/12/2009 14:32

Diesel is dead cheap and fabulous!

doughnutty · 24/12/2009 14:34

No 19

Hardly anyone wears it and it's fab

No 5 is like your grannys coty l'amont

Jewelsandgems · 24/12/2009 14:34

Coco madesmoiselle is beautiful

msrisotto · 24/12/2009 14:37

Rainbowinthesky · 24/12/2009 16:41
