What's your favourite perfume?

L'eau de Givenchy
And they don't make it anymore

Jo Malone Pomegranate noir mostly in the winter.
Bronze Goddess for summer.
For intense and lasting perfume I buy Serge Lutens.

I still love Cabotine (light and fresh) and Amarige (warmer) though the all time favourite is Je Reviens - must have a search online since I dare say it’s still available.

I loathe anything heavy, over sweet or musky. I’ve been known to use dh’s aftershave - he never uses the stuff he gets as presents (never from me) - don’t know what the current one is, in a blue bottle, but it’s very light and fresh.

CK1 for everyday but Hermes 'Orange Vert' for best.

The lowest priced Cinnabar is still expensive, so if it's a lot cheaper than your favourites, you must be one expensive lady. Kudos to you.

Spangler what’s expensive to one person may be inexpensive to another according to their personal wealth. £52 is about average for a perfume I would say. I certainly wouldn’t call it expensive though it is a considered amount and a lot to pay out for some people.

Does anyoneone remember Helena Rubenstein, Heaven Scent/Sent?

I found a bottle years after I stopped using it and it just wasn't the same.

Puzzler61, thanks. I do that too after I've sprayed it all over my wrists and neck a million times. X

Yiayia4, thanks. X

Jo Malone Red Roses. I’ve worn it for several years now and I’m often asked what it is, it seems to suit me. One of the little DGDs declared ‘Grandma, you smell delicious!’

Oh I love her scents. Not had the roses one. I like her blackberry and bay. I’ve also had her lavender and Amber. Delicious.

Bet your a bundle of laughs. ?

In my youth I loved Alliage by Estée Lauder but nowadays I stick to Chanel No.19 or Chanel Allure.

I don’t care for strong perfumes as they give me a headache and/or hay fever symptoms. My mum used to wear Opium which was eye-wateringly strong. Anais Anais was another popular one that really made me feel ill.?

I had a very good friend, sadly no longer here who always used In Love by Norman Hartnell, you always knew if she had been in a room. I would love to be able to buy it now but not been around for years.

Ashaya by Kenzo

Jasmin noir by Bulgari

and old favourites, Diorissimo, Diorama and Chanel Cristalle.

Does anyone remember Helena Rubinsteins' Apple Blossom? That was my favourite for years along with Coty L'Aimant, when I was younger (almost too long ago to remember!) but after I had my daughter, the scent completely changed on my skin.

Diorissimmo, scent of lilly of the valley, has been my favourite for many years. My OH always bought it for me in Duty Free but is getting harder to find.

I truly dislike most ver strong and pungent modern perfumes. As a young woman, I loved 'Je Reviens'.

Now I love simple fruit and herby scents. Oranges Amères by Hermès, or some artisan Verbena, or Bergamot Eau de Parfums.

The perfume I have been waiting on has arrived. It's lovely. X

(Not SJP Lovely, I meant it smells lovely). X

Happy Birthday.

My favourite is the Body Shop White Musk.

Alwaoys reminds me of my mother.
And Puzzler61 have you tried ‘ Suddenly’, the Lidl ‘ smellalike’?

My favourite is Agent Provocateur, bought online from Fragrance Direct at around half the shop price.

My wee auntie liked ‘ Coty Malone’.

My favourite was Body Shop Cotton White. The bottle was wrapped in white cotton.They stopped making it years ago .I always test their new fragrances in case they bring it out under a new name but I haven't found it yet

Daddima, I have that perfume, it's very nice, my colleagues bought me it as a token birthday present, as they know I like perfume. X

Thierry Mughler Angel

The Suddenly one I meant. X

dragonfly46, I love that, have you tried the one called "Blossom" from the Superdrug Layering Lab range? It's £3 and smells exactly the same, my auntie has it and everyone asks her if she's wearing Alien. The first time I smelled it on her, my exact words were "When did you get Alien? Lucky you." X
