| | Mon Peche / My Sin by Long Lost PerfumeRemarkably distinctive and unforgettable. I would love to try this again, and am willing to but the recreation just to see if it is like the lovely scent I remember. 30th June, 2009. |
| | Arpège by LanvinThe kind of scent you can imagine wearing on a romantic evening. It would encourage someone to ask you to tango .... rich, complex, changing as it dries .... intriguing. 30th June, 2009. |
| | Coco Mademoiselle by ChanelRoses, vanilla .... luxurious femininity. I love the body lotion as well as the perfume. 30th June, 2009. |
| | No. 5 by ChanelLoved it when I was in college, but now it no longer suits me. It is very complex, with many notes. I love the scent when it comes from the bottle, but not on my skin. 30th June, 2009. |
| | 4711 Echt Kölnisch Wasser by 4711Light and fresh, 4711 does not shout, it whispers. Delightful! No one will edge away from you on an elevator when you wear this ... they might move closer! Suitable for everyone from teen on up. Perfect in warm weather. 4th March, 2009. |
| | Tommy Girl by Tommy HilfigerDidn't expect to like this so much, as many of the modern perfumes seem sharp and trendy, but to me it presents a fresh and lovely spring scent that may well become a classic. The name is silly. 4th March, 2009. (Last Edited: 30th June, 2009.) |
| | Coriandre by Jean CouturierI bought my first bottle at Joseph Magnin's and fell in love. The sales clerk said it was so special .... "You won't find this at Nordstrom," she said, as if it was a cut above anything Chanel or Dior made. She may have been wrong about that, but I never wanted the bottle to end. Very bright, green, and piquant. 4th March, 2009. (Last Edited: 30th June, 2009.) |
| | Chance by ChanelChance .... oh my..... lasting, sweet, sensuous, a fragrance for a woman who looks sophisticated. 4th March, 2009. (Last Edited: 30th June, 2009.) |
| | Allure Eau de Toilette by ChanelWhile it first smelled rather appealing, after about 15 minutes on my wrists it seemed way to overpoweringly sweet. On the other hand (or wrist) I can imagine someone else wearing this successfully. It just doesn't work with my skin. 4th March, 2009. |
| | Pink by Victoria's SecretLight and bright in the bottle, and yet on my skin ..... too hard and sharp. Comes off as just another modern scent that seems unremarkable. I cannot imagine this standing the test of time and being worn by anyone 20 years from now. 24th February, 2009. |
| | Lolita Lempicka by Lolita LempickaToo sharp a fragrance for me, but the bottle is beautiful! 24th February, 2009. |
| | Shalimar by GuerlainWhen a scent becomes a classic, there's a reason. Heavenly, heady, sensuous, passionate. Most of all, distinctive. When someone near you is wearing Shalimar, you know what it is, you don't think, "Another sweet scent named after a pop star." 24th February, 2009. |
| | Giorgio by Giorgio Beverly HillsSmells fabulous in the bottle and on a tester, and then .... on my skin it becomes too sharp and acrid. Can be lovely on others but my skin chemistry and this scent do not match. 24th February, 2009. |
| | White Shoulders by Elizabeth ArdenClassic. Identifiable. Lovely. I have worn this often and received more compliments on it than on any other scent, even ones that are more expensive. Whatever it contains seems to match my body chemistry perfectly. 24th February, 2009. |
| | Red Door by Elizabeth ArdenRed Door is very powerful, and should be addressed with caution. A little dab ... nice. A large splash ... overpowering. 24th February, 2009. |
| | J'Adore by Christian DiorGorgeous but soft, appealing, and gets better as the day goes on. 24th February, 2009. |
