How many perfumes do you have?

I love this post 💕
So, daytime it’s Jo Malone, lime, basil and mandarin, but it’s Aldi dupe. Or ck one.
Going out it’s Marc Jacobs Daisy or Chloe.
I love to find a new perfume I like, but it doesn’t happen very often.

Just the one Joy by Jean Patou worn for 40 + years.

Amarige by Givenchy been my one & only for more years than I can remember

I agree ginny - and some are fabulous on a piece of card and really not very nice on a particular skin.

I have stopped people whilst out quite a few times to comment on their perfume. At least twice it was Shalimar which I think is fabulous with the bergamot, citrus and patchouli (which I admit, I'm a sucker for). Unfortunately I tried it when out shopping and by the time I got back to my husband it had changed such a lot we both thought I'd "trodden in something". Not so good on me then- but perfect on others. 😕

One of my favourite outings - perfume shopping! Just try to remember to not put any on when I get dressed (and don't pick up the fragrant scarf from yesterday as you leave the house!

Liz Earle Botanical Essence No 15, plus make up everyday, otherwise I would frighten the natives. 😳

Am I allowed to say ‘natives’ or is that a non-word now ?

Perfumes are definitely a very personal thing.
MIL wears one that I can’t stand the smell of. Unfortunately she bought it for me too. Had to give it ( quietly) away.
Currently I like to use Cashmere. from Next.

Estée Lauder beautiful. Calvin Klein eternity. Boss the scent . All bought for me from my dil choice for presents. If I was buying it would be eternity.

Just two as some of my favourites have been discontinued or changed. Eau de Sezanne every day and Chanel Christal which is difficult to get now when going out.

This is the Fidji I remember.😍
It felt very glamorous Witzend - think it would have been nice to wear it on your wedding day

I honestly don't remember what I chose for my wedding.
Want to say L’Air du Temps by Nina Ricci but think I had that later.

Obsession is my favourite JaxJacky. I also have Chanel Coco Mademoiselle and Gualtier Classique.

I love perfume and wear it every day but I'm a bit of a tart and change regularly ( current favourite is Tom Ford Black Orchid). I have a friend who always wears the same perfume and I was once on a cross channel ferry when my daughter said" Oh, AuntyJ is here" ...of course it was just someone wearing the same fragrance.

I see you have "Fidji"... I had loved that once - first gifted to me in the early 70s - so precious and exotic - in its tiny heavy glass bottle with ground stopper... didn't know it was still about. My memories of it are truly fabulous.

Happy days.

I wore Fidji on my wedding day!

Zero. Perfumes are banished from my house because they all make me sneeze or cough. Cleanliness and fresh air suit me fine. I don't use any products containing perfume either.

Chanel No.19, for many many years. It’s getting difficult to find, maybe it’s been discontinued?

I think I saw it on the ferry to France last month. I'm in search of Chanel Christalle, but if not will buy myself the No.19 when back on the ferry next month if you say its good.

Just one - Elizabeth Arden Blue Grass. I have worn it since my teenage years. Tried many others since but always come back to Blue Grass. Unfortunately my nose is immune to it so I don't smell it on myself.

NotSpaghetti Fidgi is a recent ‘memory lane’ purchase, and not as wonderful as I remember.
So many on here have memories associated for me, I’m tempted to try a few more just for old times’ sake.
Blue Grass,Madame Rochas, Ysatis ….

Jo Malone Green Orange and Coriander, which also fades quickly, CanadianGran but I love it. I also have currently on the go a small bottle of something my DD gave me for a Christmas stocking filler called Cool Vetiver. It smells rather like an aftershave that DH wore a lot (though she didn’t know that) and I like it. I think it was from M&S.

I’ve got some of that, a fiver or so in M&S - I do really like it (I’ve been known to wear dh’s aftershaves too - all presents that he never uses!). and the very small bottle is useful when I don’t want to take a larger one.
I dislike anything very sweet, heavy or musky.

A former favourite was Cabotine - fresh and ‘green’ but I haven’t seen it for ages - must look online.

I noticed that Juliette has a Gun has a €25 sample (or discovery?) box with a €25 voucher against a purchase...

Juliette has a Gun, Another Oud.
Nuxe, Prodigeuse.
Clean, Reserve.
A lovely Oud my SIL had mixed for me in Dubai.

Acqua di Gio by Georgia Armani
I don’t wear it every day - an trying to make it last as long as possible.
It was a gift from DH on one of his last travels for work.

Mancjules

Just 2...Acqua de Parma Sicilia and Sardegna. Day and night.

These are lovely!

I LOVE perfume threads BTW!
Thank you CanadianGran!

M0nica I too like "blue grass" it makes me think of my childhood.
