I've worn Clinique aromatics for years and years but last year I had to stop as it now brings me out in a rash.Either Lancome miracle or magnifecence (SP) will be my next purchase.  |

I varey it depending on the season and what I'm doing. Summer is usually Davidoff Cool Water Woman with a bit of Armarni Code thrown in. Sometimes on sultry nights it's No 5. Amourous ossacions Agent Provocateur but my signature that the kids always say I smell like Mum with is Christian Dior Dolcia Vita which I have worn for about 25 years and it's my comfort blanket.

I remember Youth Dew Barbara. Didn't know it was still available.
My favourite perfume has been discontinued so I finally got a bottle from my local perfume shop in Chingford. He found one in his supplier's warehouse unboxed. It called Mystere de Rochas by Rochas. It is a woody musky bergamot smelling perfume. I also like Ysatis by Givenchy, but is is a bit too whiffy for day wear.

I wear "Cool Water" by Davidoff, "Cacharel" by Cacharel, "Jeans" by Trussardi and occasionally "XS" by Paco Rabanne. Many years ago, I used to wear Kouros !! On a woman, I like Giorgio by Armani. I don't know why, it just does things for me  ;D FA x |

Ysatis by Givenchy and Rive Gauche by YSL are my faves for evenings out, I also like Madame Rocha. Others in my 'collection'  are J'adore - Christian Dior, Vanderbilt - Gloria Vanderbilt, Volupte - Oscar de la Renta, Dolce Vita - Christian Dior, and a pink bottle by Nina Ricci which I can't remember the name of! None of these are worn for gardening I might add - and these days I suppose they are almost obsolete in Tigworld  |

Channel number 5? Is that like the Tommy Hilfinger version of Chanel? ;D
I wear J Lo Glow or Live, Bodyshop's Coconut or Ananya perfume oil or armani white pour elle.
I've got quite a few others that I wear when the mood takes me but they're my everyday ones.

Is an age thing, do you think? I still have bottles of Rive Gauche, recently found a bottle of Madame Rochas on deal so bought it as a treat. Quite a powerful flowery smell, not needed while gardening! I first bought a bottle in the 70s. |

Oh the Smellies, I like Armani code, but just lately I have been using one that I've not seen in the shops, it's by Jaguar as in the car makers and another by Lamborghini, both quite nice but the Jaguar being the best of the two.
Cool water another nice one. Used to like Obsession but went off it with over use, CK1 was ok in it's day.

Brut 33 takes me back to the early 70s and my first boyfriend! Mind you I think my 2nd and 3rd boyfriend wore it too. The whole world smelt of Brut 33 then When i wear perfume, which isn't often now, it's Davidoff's cool water woman. I used to go for Ysatis but couldn't say it so it was embarrasing to ask for! Frankly I can't be bothered with it. If you wear the same fragrance a lot you can't smell it on yourself anyway. I got a small bottle of No7 perfume (can't remember the name) for Christmas but can't wear it as it has a faint smell of Almond oil. I cannot tolerate anything which smells like that (marzipan....yeeeuch!) since I was 6 and we were using paste at school which smelt of almond oil. Made me feel queasy then I was sick. Probably was a bug but in my mind it was the almond smell. Similar thing happened with Gin when I was 17 but that's another story...... Oops, sorry to go off topic so much |
