    Perfume

    I want some new perfume, but find shopping for perfume ridiculously overwhelming- which is unusual when you love shopping as much as me!!! LOL
    I love the smell of vanilla
    I mostly wear Kylie minogue perfume ATM.
    I'd like a strong scent

    TIA :-)

    Issey Miyake is my all time favourite followed closely by Gucci Rush. Issey is my 'signature scent' though Neither have vanilla tones but both have always scored me loads of compliments.

    I have Issey too, but that's a very floral scent IMO.
    If you like sweet, vanilla/fruity scents how about Ralph by Ralph Lauren? (The original in the blue bottle.) That was my all-time fave before moving on to Issey only recently. Also the Gwen Stephani range is quite fruity and lovely. But I find those a little more subtle than the Ralph.

    I have chanel no.5. I got it for xmas off DP 2 years ago and I've made sure it's been stored in the box so it doesn't spoil. I was only using it for special occasions but then i realised I never used it so I use it as a daily perfume now

    My fragrance is "Lovely" by Sarah Jessica Parker, I can usually find it in chemists on a pretty good sale.
    'contains notes of lavender, orchid & amber Blended with apple martini, paper whites & musk'

    Its a very pretty, feminine perfume and I get lots of compliments on it, people are surprised when I say its SJP!

    My favourite right now is Euphoria by CK. It has a sweet element to it but not sickly sweet ITMS. I also love Dolce & Gabana Light Blue, reminds me of watermelons and the normal one is lovely too, Gucci Rush is another nice one but I am addicted to Euphoria for now!

    Love Issey Miyake as well, always have it in my cupboard and usually get the most compliments when wearing this. My other favourite is Dior Addict 2, another staple in my cupboard. These are both florally I would say, not overally though.

    Does anyone remember Vanilla Fields by Coty? Everyone I knew had that when it first came out.

    Shalimar is a lovely classic with a vanilla note - and strong!

    If I want something a bit ra-row I wear Narcisco Rodriguez For Her or Agent Provocateur (more on the floral/musky/powdery side) or Guerlain Insolence (has vanilla but is more fruity/floral - actually you might really like this one Emma, go sniff it!)
