Yes. Hartnell's In love for me. What I would give to recapture.

Me and another poster (who I am sure will be here soon!) are on a quest for a replacement for the original Eau de Givenchy.

I love greeny, fresh smells. My favourite used to be Tendre Poison. Nothing like the heavy, original poison. Light, fresh, very clean smell. Discontinued in 1994. I've never really found one to replace it although I make do with Light Blue. The real thing is by Dolce & Gabbana (expensive) but I've got a knock off one that smells identical.

CatsCatsCats if you like sweet perfumes have a sniff of Penhaligon, Jo Loves or Jo Malone. They have a wide range.

Does anybody else mourn the perfumes they once used to love but have now been discontinued?

I have a preference for sweet perfumes and two of my favourites are no longer on the shelves - Feminine by D&G, and Jaipur by Boucheron.

I keep hoping they will come back in a blaze of glory some day.

Samsara is still in existence, though, so I'm not entirely bereft.
