Every time I wear the Vanilla mist, without fail, I get a compliment. The Neroli Jasmine comes in a mist too.
Bath, it's hard to tell about the musk, however most (esp french) perfumes do. The synthetic version is exactly the same as "real", but a hell of a lot cheaper and not aquired by cruel, unethical means. That's why I just use Body Shop as I know for sure.
Ralph here. In summer. I love it. Funny, cause that's the word I used to use instead of vomit
Don't tend to bother with any fragrances in winter... don't tend to bother with much in winter, LOL.
OK, my all time favourite that i've been wearing for years is Dolce Vita by Christian Dior - like Deb, my friends tell me this is 'my' fragrance and everytime they smell it it reminds them of me.
Second favourite would have to be Sui Love by Anna Sui - I brought this for my wedding and honeymoon because I wanted a different scent that would remind me specifically of that time - works a charm! Every time I wear it i'm back in Fiji on my honeymoon, young and in love!! LOL! I am a nut for butterflies (I had live butterfly displays as centrepieces at our wedding!!) so I admit the bottle is what caught my attention!
These two are what I wear to work or of an evening. Day to day I just wear the Dolce Vita spray mist or something lighter and cheaper, atm it's Fire & Ice Cool by Revlon.
In summer I love Ralph by Ralph Lauren or Aqua Di Gio by Christian Dior.
For DH I LOVE Dune for Men. I brought it for him years ago and I can't stand him wearing anything else now - it just smells like him!
OK girls, you've inspired me to go and buy some new perfume before I go on mat leave, I'm nearly out of everything!!

Hubby bought me Hugo Woman and I love wearing it every day, it smells summery (even though its so cold outside!) and fresh and reminds me of the great USA!
Ok, I have a huge lot of perfumes, some I wear all the time. Other's only occassionally.
I love Chanel #5 that's an occassional one
Poem - Lancome - used to live in it. Gives me a headache now
Wish - Chopard - fav atm
Cool water - Davidoff
Jadore - Another fav atm
Baby Doll - thanks for the reminder, I love it and have worn it for a while
Ciara - Revlon, it's a concentrate so I have to spray it on a cotton ball first.
I'm another that won't wear perfume with a little bub. I don't think it's fair for them to cop a face full of perfume when I am nursing them. I am also fussy about family or friends nursing my babies if they have perfume on. Good friends already no it's not liked with my babies.
I wear Elizabeth Arden's Green Tea everyday, and i also have the Kylie Minogue one. I tend to wear the lighter fragrances, but when i was younger - my fave perfumes were Samsara and Amarige.
I don't have "for special occasion" perfume - I wear my chanel every day - even when I'm working on the car, DH loves the smell of chanel no 5 & oil - which was my smell of choice today (we were working on the car)
My faves are Angel and Angel innocent... DH wears A*men to match.
I love Eternity and have been wearing this since I was 18.
I also love Joop!
My most favourite scent that DH wears is Body Kouros... omg, it smells so sexy on him!!!
I'm a Dior girl, I love J'Adore and Addict. And I love Ralph Lauren Blue but it has been discontinued ...that was always my summertime fragrance. I wear Addict in winter and J'Adore all year round (plus I wore it on my wedding day and it always takes me back to that day). I always get compliments when I wear Addict (and DH loves it ).
But since DS was born I can't bring myself to wear them...they are all collecting dust!
1. Burberry (doesnt have a name, think it's just the original eau de parfum)
2. Philosophy's "Amazing Grace" (Philospohy is an American brand I think , available at limited shops, but have yummy scents- lots of fun bath stuff too like cinnamon buns, hot cocoa, strawberry margartia, gingerbread man, candy cane etc)
I used to wear Ralph Lauren's "Romance" but wore it while very morning sick in pregnancy and to this day I feel ill immediately if I catch a whiff of it, crazy
