Ladies ( and gentlemen) what is your favourite perfume/scent ?

First one our son had was CK1 bought on a trip to Paris on Eurostar.

One of my favourites Chris, I have a large bottle, but it doesn't give out a 'spray' any more, more a direct stream tried fiddling with it ,but it still wont spray
 
I've also got....

Pure Poisen by Dior
Flower by Kenzo

And I absouletely go weak at the knees when I smell deep musky sensual men's aftershave .... like The One by D&G.

I sometimes wear Allure Homme by Chanel
Gucci by Gucci pour homme.... Think I'd better stop there!

I've got a bottle of Miss Dior like that, if I try doing a short squirt it dribbles down side of bottle if I try a stronger spray I get drenched (bottom of tarts handbag syndrome)
 
For me CK and Paul Smith and Davidoff. Use Dove deodorants and my sisters say I have more smellies than them when they visit lol
 
I have worn Polo since the 80's..........

Creed's 'Green Irish Tweed' is a favourite, but its just too expensive!
At the moment I use the body shop's 'Red Musk' oil even though its marketed as a womans scent, I really like the smell.

Creed's 'Green Irish Tweed' is to die for! But I can't afford it. I've only ever smelt it on a shop assistant in the perfumery dept... And ... Well... I just couldn't help myself follow him round the store
 
Oh I remember that, horse chestnut in it ? or is that another product ? That has brought back memories for the 1970's when I used Anne French cleansing milk/cream, it had a lovely scent
Badidas is horse chestnut, not sure about fengal
 
Just remembered, the body lotions to go with your fave perfume can be very expensive, so if you get an unscented body lotion, put a few sprays of perfume in it and give it a good shake. Add more perfume until you've got it right. Much cheaper than paying out for the brands.

Try removing the spray head and soaking in a bowl of warm water, dry well and look down tube clean with a bit of cotton wool or screwed up paper down tube and clear nozzle hole with a bit of fuse wire, sometimes it works but no guarantee

Thanks sd, The bottle's not that old, but I will give it a try
 
Karma, by Lush.

Friends ( who get away with murder !) say I smell like a hippy's armpit !

I've heard that perfume is supposed to smell like the old Goya Aqua Manda? Oh how I still dream of that beautiful oatmeal soap and bathoil! I know they've released it in England but heard it's not the same.
 
I still love Estee Lauder Youth Dew .. many don't like as it's quite strong but I love it in the winter months. Mr T goes to US once a year on business so I stock up at Xmas with the whole range of products. When I used the bath oil in the downstairs bathroom it makes the house smell nice for a week!

Wow, that has brought back some sort of memory, gosh I'm sure I remember it, thanks
