What is your favourite perfume, scent, body spray, soap?

[rainydaywoman11]

My current one is by Dior, Escale aux Marquixes.  It's lovely,has a slight citrus smell but also Tahitian Tiare Flower, which happens to be my favourite (discontinued) Yankee candle.

[**forum-decorum**]

My all time favourite is Natori by Avon, discontinued now.

I have never found one to match it, so I tend to wear any when I am bought one as a gift.

OOh Forum you reminded me i used to LOVE the old Avon perfumes and my favourite was Sweet Honesty,,im so cross you cant get them anymore. I also do like the Fergie ones from Avon they smell Luscious!!!!!!!!!!!.

Just remembered one I do like but don't own, although I do borrow a squirt occasionaly from my son, CKOne

[mouse4702]

Rose, I was a huge Sweet Honesty fan as well. Now I like Far Away from Avon. Used to like Muguet des Bois which was Lily of the Valley Then Chantilly by Houbigant, but it's not so hot these days for some reason. On the cheapo side, Vanilla by Alyssa Ashley, which you can still pick up on here occasionally. Overpowering smell of cream cakes!!!

[ed_blackadder_1]

Chantilly I used to use that when I was younger, much much younger.

[rose2008-2008]

Thats funny Mouse as i liked Muguet Des  Bois too!!!.

I always remember buying Smitty when i was younger,,, an i loved Faberge,, Tigress and Babe and Kiku

 Now you're just making me come over all unnecessary ( do you wear it with a boiler suit ? ) 

[ginap.123]

Goldenangelanimal - thanks so much for the info re Van Cleef - I have been searching for a new bottle for ages - just been on the big A site and ordered one - well happy  xxx

[goldenangelanimal]

Glad to be of help, I know I can't buy it locally any more,

[vamo48]

Favourite at the moment is Au the rouge (red tea) by Bulgari. I also like Eau d'Issey by Issey Miyake, Eau des Jardins by Clarins, Pleasures by Estee Lauder. Other favourites now hard to get are Guerlain's Champs Elysees, and Elysium by Clarins. Years ago when I was working in an office I was one of half a dozen girls all wearing Estee Lauder's Youth Dew - a bit overpowering to say the least!

[rose2008-2008]

I used to like Opium when i was younger but all of a sudden it was too powerful to bear!!!!,, same with Youth Dew. Another one thats quite powerful but nice is Escape by Calvin Klein

[saasher2012]

lol. Aah yes youth dew ! I couldn't wear it then it used to give me a headache it was so heavy, funny how your preference for smells change as you get older, I've always liked light fresh smelling perfumes .

[calibra101]

Alien by Tierry Mugler.....everyone I pass asks me what that lovely perfume I am wearing .

[petitecalicocat]

I love Paris by YSL  i like light flowery fragrances 

[**towery**]

Paris was one perfume i truly  hated as a kid,  it was my younger sisters fav and as we shared a room it stunk of it

i like lighter smells

i did  like one of my sons aftershaves an wore that , a calvin klein one

i had a tester sprayed last week of a britney spears thing, smelt like watermelon for a while

[rose2008-2008]

I used to like The Body Shops Japanese Musk in the eighties ,,it was in their little Round Bottles, and Dewberry was lovely too!!.

[saasher2012]

Oh yes, I remember Smitty and Kiku; also used to like "Chique" Not sure if that's how you spell it. It goes way back, but a local shop had some on sale last year.  My first ever scent (it was only cheap) as a kid was "Californian Poppy".
