    oh sorry haha favourite :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,305 ✭✭✭Chuchoter


    Paradise by Estee Lauder atm, but I wish they'd make the Lush Vanilla in the Mist soap into a perfume. Coffee and vanilla om nom nom


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,175 ✭✭✭ironictoaster


    Gah, I dunno?

    Aftershave on the other hand is Armani code. I have gotten compliments on it!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,842 ✭✭✭seanbmc


    Someone bought me this recently http://www.perfumezilla.com/images_product/gucci-pour-homme-after-shave-by-gucci-3-4-oz-after-shave-lotion-men.jpg.

    Gucci by Gucci. I think it's my new favourite aftershave, smells great and I have been complimented on it a few times :).

    Cerruti 1881. My brother bought it for my mum for Christmas about six years ago and I fell in love with it, and if I wear another perfume now I don't feel like myself! I love it <3

    Coco Madamemoiselle by Chanel

    My favourite is the Chloe one. I got my first bottle over two years ago and I've worn it constantly. I have other perfumes but I'm too in love with my Chloe to wear anything else for too long. My old housemate texted me the other day to say she smelt it on her holidays and thought of me. I think it's nice to have a 'signature scent', to borrow some cheesy terminology from fashion magazines. I like to smell something and be reminded of somebody special. But yeah, Chloe ftw. <3

    I wear Euphoria by Calvin Klein all the time, however I have some obscene collection of perfume, so I have many favourites. I've just been wearing that one for the last year or so, without changing really.

    Also love the green and pink Be Delicious' by DKNY. I'm sure they have real names but green and pink will do! :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,252 ✭✭✭norwegianwood


    Red Delicious by DKNY...dunno why really, comes in a nice bottle?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,642 ✭✭✭kev_s88

    I don't sweat and that's because I use Lynx Africa.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,109 ✭✭✭QueenOfLeon


    Some sort of round Chanel bottle, I fail at names and the cap went missing so I don't actually know the name of it :o

    Same. I always wanted to be one of those people who had a "smell" but I can't find one that I like or think suits me. I do have a nice Miss Sixty one though...

    Oh you have a smell.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,808 ✭✭✭ohthebaby


    Actually when I think of it, I have discovered another wonderful scent. It's one from Zara for kiddies. It's a unisex one and it's all lemony and smells like clean, if you know what I mean. It's only like €5. It's really, really nice. I have it and put it on if I'm just hanging around at home or only going to the shop or something very insignificant.

    I think one of the papers at the weekend was giving out about Zara having perfumes for children. It is silly but I don't care cos this one is cheap and nice and gains compliments. :)

    I love that you put on perfume for hanging around at home or going to the shop. I consider wearing pants on such occasions to be making an effort.

    Any of the lancome perfumes, I like ralph lauren perfume too nothing too strong. Love the flowery or fruit scents and vanilla too.

    I am quite content using an odourless antiperspirant and nothing else.

    Anything deodorant other than Lynx Africa (Alas, I'm slightly past teen discos so that's that out the window) gives me a blinding headache. Almost all aftershaves too....

    Vast majority of perfumes too......

    In short, I have headaches for a unfortunate proportion of my life >_<


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,893 ✭✭✭Davidius


    I prefer it when women don't smell of perfume.

    In terms of manly man fragrances, I just stick with stale sweat. I'd put Lynx on but I can barely remember to change my clothes as it is. It's all about the sniff test really.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,779 ✭✭✭A Neurotic


    I miss my Hugo Boss.

    Boss%20by%20Hugo%20Boss%205ml%20(Grey)%20men.jpg

    Currently have Armani stuff what my parents done bought me in Italy. It's nice, but I'm rarely arsed using it.

    If money was no object I'd shower in Chanel No.5 :)

    But I've a really nice bottle of Frank Usher, makes me smell like roses :D ie Red Turkish Delight

    I think it's necessary to clarify that I don't actually use Lynx Africa (no one got my fantastic reference, bah). :D 'Sure' is the best by far, and I'm not ashamed to admit that I used to use the women's variety since it was just wonderful. :p

    I actually quite like the smell of it, it's just entirely superfluous with the stuff I use now, and I'm not like 11.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,492 ✭✭✭degausserxo


    Chloe. It is actually the nicest thing I've ever smelt in my whole entire life. That and Flowerbomb.

    Either this:

    Or this:

    Depending on the situation.


    If forced to choose, generally I'd go for Armani Code.

    This is my daytime perfume:

    It's so light and pretty, I love all the Paul Smith perfumes (except 'women', it doesn't smell like anything...)

    For evening (When I can afford it!) I just adore

    Chanel-Coco-Mademoiselle.jpg

    Just so gorgeous and classic.
