| My ultimate fav is Caleche by Hermes - the body cream is to die for. Also Tiffany & Company. For everyday nothing beats Acca Kappa White Moss. It doesn't come in a perfume but by the time that you layer the lotion & eau d'cologne spray you feel fresh and pretty all over. It's difficult to find (only two actual stores in North America) but it is stellar for all body products. The bonus there is that not just everyone has the same scent as you! |

I've got Opium EDT (the summer version). This is a much lighter version of the classic yet still nice and spicy 
I can't wait to smell the new Alexander McQueen (a ltd lighter edition of his Kingdom fragrance) and also the Narciso Rodriguez which is FINALLY going to be released in Australia on September 17th. I've heard so many good things about it and I have been wanting to smell it for months. Australia is so behind with cosmetic/perfume releases

when it comes to the uk I wanna get it, but it would be nice if I was sure I liked it first!  |

When I bought Initial by Boucheron, the girl gave me several samples. I haven't used any of them, but I'll go dig them out and see if one is trouble and give you a critique.

| If you know how L'Instant by Guerlain smells like, you get an idea of how Trouble smells like. At first I loved it, then I thought to myself: "THis really reminds me of another perfume which I have..." And after a while, I could identify it as L'Instant. A pity, because I really liked the bottle. But two almost identical perfumes would be OTT, even for me. |

I actually have no ideas about what to buy  My skin is behaving very well these days, and I just bought myself the Multivitamin capsules from Dermalogica.
L'Instant is pretty sweet; I would say a vanilla-ey floral. It lasts all day! |

For ages I wanted to try Fracas and finally caved and ordered a sample of it online. It ended up being one of "those" perfumes for me that give me an incredible headache. The same thing happens to me with Angel and also Versace Jeans Couture (the yellow one) and I think Marc Jacobs as well.
Oh well, at least I know it's not for me. I wonder what it is in it that makes me ill though.
Three other perfumes on my "to try" list:
Aftelier Cacao
To Twirl All Girly (by Pilar&Lucy)
The Exact Friction of the Stars (same)
Just love those names!

You have the same taste as me...Ghost and Coco are so nice, and people always ask me what I have on when I wear them... As for spraying in the morning, I go through Boots every morning and spray on my Ghost and every lunchtime!! Even the security guard says good morning to me now!!! Saves on my perfume! |

I alternate between a few but my all time fav is Gio by Giorgio when we can no longer buy here in Canada  . I even searched for it last year on vacation but it appears to have maybe vanished even in the US.
Alternating between the following six right now:
Clinique Happy
Tommy Girl
Polo sport for women
Alfred Sung Shi
Estee Lauder Beyond Paradise
Ralph Lauren (blue bottle can't think of the name) might simply be Ralph not sure duh.

| The perfume line of Lady Primrose has the most beautiful bottles. I did test the hand lotion. After receiving lots of it for Christmas, I discovered the body lotion makes me itch. I still have the "pretty bottles." |

I used to love a perfume called "Maroc" but it was discontinued a few years ago. Last Christmas my husband tracked it down via Internet and had it delivered to his office so that he could hide it from me until he was ready to wrap it. Turns out the bottle broke during shipping and when he received it at the office, the box was drenched with the perfume and it quickly permeated his entire office. Needless to say, all of his co-workers hate Maroc now and my husband can't bear for me to wear it either since they all had to smell it for 3 weeks straight. Ha!!
Anyway, I just bought "Lemon Sugar" by Fresh and LOVE it. It starts off smelling like lemon drops candy and then later on it smells like faint caramel/vanilla. Sounds funky, I know, but I love it! I originally heard about it in Allure I think.
I also just bought Jessica Simpson's "Dessert" perfume in "Juicy" flavor but was really disappointed to see that the smell only lasts about 15 minutes (no joke, the salesgirl even warned me but I'm hardheaded) but at least it tastes good! |

I just found (and bought) my newest perfume love.... Moschino Couture! It's so warm and gorgeous! Love it!
The other new addition to my perfume collection is CDG Rhubarb. I never thought I'd buy any fragrance that smells like rhubarb but this is really nice. I thank (or blame) Thoughtcrime for putting me onto this  |

Seems a lot of people round here have an in-depth knowledge of fragrance as well as skincare products!
Daytime - Happy by Clinique, Gucci Envy, Green Tea by Elizabeth Arden (not all at once though )
Evening - Boss Woman by Hugo Boss, XS Pour Elle by Paco Rabanne
Anybody tried Benefit's 'Maybe Baby'? I was wondering what fragrance family it belonged to. |

I have a lot of favorites, since i love perfumes. My very current favorite is Burberry's Brit, its smell i find to be kinda warm, sexy, impulsive and wintry. In summer i love the light, and fresh floral smell of Issey Miyake and Alferd Sung's soft, floral, feminine, smell called Shi.
ps: which smells u guys found to last the longest on you? |
