Topic: Which ones for me?

Here is a list of all the perfumes that I want to try.There are quite a lot and it would be expensive and time-consuming to try them all ( my SO is already despairing at my costly perfume trying mission!)

Judging by my (very meagre) perfume shelves,which would be the ones I should definitely try?

Re: Which ones for me?

I haven't actually tested most of those so I can't recommend anything, but I did notice on your profile that you mention the site doesn't have a shelf for perfumes you want to test. Just wanted to let you know that the 'notebook' tab has a shelf for testing, you go to the perfumes page and there is a small check box that says 'for test', if you click that, the perfume will appear on the 'for test' shelf.

I thought that might help so you don't have to write them all down in your info area glad

Re: Which ones for me?

http://fimgs.net/images/perfume/m.70.jpg  Kenzo Kenzo Jungle L'Elephant its beautiful but you have to love the cardamom note i like it.

http://fimgs.net/images/perfume/m.560.jpg  Givenchy Organza Indecence worth every penny, very rich perfume.

http://fimgs.net/images/perfume/m.2459.jpg  Mauboussin Mauboussin i see you had Angel you wil like this one to, there not similar but both have patchouli in it.

http://fimgs.net/images/perfume/m.348.jpg  Chopard Casmir lovely classy fragrance.

With the other perfumes i cannot help you as i am not familiar with them.

Re: Which ones for me?

http://fimgs.net/images/perfume/m.221.jpg Dior Dune is also a great perfume but this one doesnt go with my chemistry because of the aldehydes. Maybe it will be great on your skin. I hope i have helped. Good luck.

Re: Which ones for me?

http://fimgs.net/images/perfume/m.70.jpg Kenzo Kenzo Jungle L'Elephant Is very nice.

the name has changed in Kenzo Jungle . ( I was in the perfumery Douglas and there the SA told me this.)
It is a really nice sweet scent and on me it is not strong scent. But others will say something else .

http://fimgs.net/images/perfume/m.560.jpg  Givenchy Organza Indecence I have had this one and it is not in production anymore. You'll have a hard time finding this.

http://fimgs.net/images/perfume/m.348.jpg  Chopard Casmir This is a thick perfume , heavy vanilla.

gives me a headache.

http://fimgs.net/images/perfume/m.664.jpg  Kenzo Kenzo Amour is very nice , if you like incense you should try the gold bottle Kenzo Le Parfum. But this is a limited edition so I don't know if you can still buy it.

http://fimgs.net/images/perfume/m.2459.jpg Mauboussin Mauboussin  Love this one!

It needs some time to settle but it is really good , and long lasting!

http://fimgs.net/images/perfume/m.221.jpg Dior Dune Lovely  much lighter than the Mauboussin.

Re: Which ones for me?

Thanks everyone.

Nemosh,I take your point about http://fimgs.net/images/perfume/m.560.jpg  Givenchy Organza Indecence

People are selling it for silly money on ebay because it's so rare.I'd love to try it but I'm wondering if it's pointless.Especially if I love it..that would be really annoying!

Does anyone know if any of the others are discontinued?

Re: Which ones for me?

I'm adding another to my list ( I will edit my original post to include it)

http://fimgs.net/images/perfume/m.131.jpg Byblos Byblos

This sounds devine and I adore the colour combination of the bottle.I have my bedroom decorated in blue and gold so if I like this it would fit right in on my dressing table!

Does anyone know this fragrance?

Re: Which ones for me?

BONJOUR.Because women prefer to buy status brand names such as chanel,dior,armani,etc and do not search to try perfumes that are not over promoted.

Re: Which ones for me?

BONJOUR.Intense woody perfumes for men from the 70's and 80's were discontinued in the 90's because their era was finished.

Carpe Diem.

Re: Which ones for me?

I agree exactly with nikosculpture on the discontinued perfumes. that is exactly why, although some excellent perfumes are discontinued this way. As far as your list goes, http://fimgs.net/images/perfume/m.1151.jpg  Mariah Carey M is really inexpensive and easy to obtain, so why not? I foundhttp://fimgs.net/images/perfume/m.3555.jpg  Bijan Bijan at Big Lots for $5.00. http://fimgs.net/images/perfume/m.221.jpg  Dior Dune is a perfume that is well worth trying, I love it, and it is available. It is not outrageous, although I wouldn't call it cheap. Reasonable. And definitely worth it.

Slow down, you're moving too fast.  Gotta make the morning last, just kicking down the cobblestones.  Looking for fun and feelin' groovy!

FRA restrictions on natural resources made so many nice fragrances unavailable and reformulated in BOTH Women and MEN CATEGORIES..

...There are many examples for discontinuations of perfumes launched after the year of 2000 to prove what i am saying glad

There are still perfumes of unisex category to be discontinued...though and there is a tendency to more of unisex scents required in the market places glad

Re: Which ones for me?

You certainly may  glad Thankyou! The only one of your suggestions I've tried is Tom Ford Tabacco Vanille.I'm not a big fan of vanilla as a main note and the sillage wasn't great on me,either.I will look into the others with great interest.Bless you. x
