Need a new perfume - fast.

Can I ask if anyone has ordered perfume online ? How do you know if it’s genuine . I just looked for guerlain insolence which I like and found it cheap on something like fragrance direct?

I have used fragrance direct many times, always found them good. The make up is miles cheaper than the shops too.

Thanks

In the short term try Aldi. Some good fragrances though they need topping up during the day as they fade quicker than the regular expensive brands.

My usual perfume is Jo Malone. A light one for every day and a heavier one for special days - booked for lunch today and has visions of sitting out on the terrace but we’ll need gum boots and brollies!

I still love Aromatics after all these years. I have a friend who wears nothing else.

Having worn either Opium or Obsesssion for 20 odd years this thread has made me:
Check with GC, who were here Friday what they thought of Opium (nice)!
Send off for Jo Malone sample
Doesn’t hurt to rethink habits!!

I wear D&G's Light Blue as it is light and fresh. Or M&S's Azure Breeze as it is a good copy.
An interesting website for all things perfume is Fragrantica.

I love perfume Sisley do fantastic perfume I always get for special birthday . Soir D'orient is stunning

Kamiso I was given a bottle of Basil, Mandarin (and something else, will check ) scent and it quickly became my favourite perfume, so I checked the label, only to discover that it came from Aldi! I love it.

I buy perfume online and it is always the genuine product in sealed package.
The much advertised companies have great selections especially of unusual fragrances.
I buy Clarins hand cream from one such company and often get good reductions.

Oh so orange is gorgeous

La vie est belle by Lancome is lovely but quite heavy. I only wear it if I'm going out and I can still smell it the next day.

I found a perfume I loved called Damn Rebel Bitches, from Reek Perfume, but they have stopped making it.

I used to 'wear' Stella, and before that Diva. These days I am mostly smelling of lavender oil rubbed into sore toes and mosquito bites so am in full-on-old-lady mode. I may have to try essence of Haribo as a top-note...

Just received some samples this morning----Creed Aventis, Estee Lauder Beautiful Belle and another Tom Ford Black Orchid, so they'll keep me going, though I keep topping up on new ones.

I'm waiting for my sample of Aromatics to be delivered.
I suppose that must mean I'm about 30 years behind the times.

constance

Damn Rebel Bitches certainly doesn’t sound like an old lady” smell!
Thank you whoever for the persimmon soap recommendation. I got some from that long river company and it is very nice. Whether a) it will make a difference or b) I need it - who knows!

Whatever it is it beats the smell of Wintergreen

Molecule 1 by Escentric, absolutely gorgeous. You can get it in Libertys Harvey Nicks etc or Amazon.

I like Rose or Lily of the Valley by Yardley or M&S - don't care if I smell like an old lady!!

Ha! Your post has made me put my Aromatics Elixir on an online site. It is a rather heavy scent.

I love that a perfume is called Damn Rebel Bitches and pity it’s no longer available as I would buy it regardless of the smell!

I bought some Aromatics Elixir this week online, it’s gorgeous...
