Forever Emeraude, just a dab though, or I will react with sneezing and dripping eyes lol, otherwise I so much enjoy very light lotion scents, just a dab also.

I totally forgot about that one. I liked it, too, but haven't seen it in years. It's a very nice scent!

I don't buy perfume anymore. I think I mentioned it before, the department store closed but whenever I went in there I'd find the Opium bottle (sample bottle) and douse myself. My car would smell like it for 3 days. Love the smell of that perfume.

You are right! I've always thought that gin smells like old perfume.

Years ago it was Norell. I don't think they make it anymore. Also Clinique's Aromatic Elixer.
There were others.

Here in Toronto the University Health Network ( 9 hospitals ) have a "No Fragrance Policy " for both visitors, patients, and staff. Link. Fragrance (nathansoncommunications.com) And they DO enforce the rule. Thank God for that policy. JImB.

Evening in Paris isn't completely gone yet. The Vermont Country Store still sells it, and when I was checking to make certain I was right, I discovered they still sell British Sterling...... Don't think I will order any, however.

I don’t use any type of perfume. Back in the 70’s, I liked White Shoulders.

Yes after I posted before did some checking and found this...Evening in Paris isn't completely gone yet. The Vermont Country Store still sells it, and when I was checking to make certain I was right, I discovered they still sell British Sterling...... Don't think I will order any, however.
"The scent was discontinued in the late 1960s, and revived and reformulated by Chanel in the early 1990s."
My friends and I used it in our early days when I lived in UK and we went dancing.
The boys loved it!...so we wore it non stop
Oh what fun !
Amazon advertise and I had a quick look but couldn't see it...anyway, now I am happy enough with my Chanel lotion.

None. I seem to be at the extreme part of Bell Curve on lack of human body skin oil odors. I'll wear the same socks for days and one would not know it. I tend to keep overly clean. When hiking with others, most mosquitoes go for the others.

I just purchased some Passion Fruit body lotion, nice, mild and smell great.

Yes, but do they carry "Evening in Hoboken"? It goes great with a fifth of Mad Dog 40-40 and you don't need a passport.

Now we’re talking! I am a collector of perfume! I absolutely love fragrance and fine perfume is an art. I belong to an online group of collectors and we trade each other for decants of fragrances or we pitch in and buy a bottle and split it.
The group contains people all over the world and I have been able to get exquisite fragrance from all over the world that isn’t available here in the USA.
Name a fragrance, and I probably have it. I will post some of my stash. Today I am wearing Chanel Bois des Illes

Oh, @Marian , what a wonderful, wonderful collection to have! Most perfumes are too strong for me now and give me a swift headache, but for some reason I've always been able to wear Jontue by Revlon, so that's still my go-to. Years ago I found a place online that sold little vials of every perfume imaginable just to try it... I got a bunch of them and loved the experience.
Quick question... I've been wanting to try Angel by Thierry Mugler because I *think* it may be milder than the headache producers. Would that be accurate, or is it relatively strong, too?
I'm one of those who is allergic to some perfumes and some chemical odors as well.

The YSL Opium for men is a male fragrance which I spray on my neck after the morning ablutions. Most who comment say: "I love your after shave," best just to smile and say thank you. Men who wear perfume?

I found Angel to be very strong, I‘m sorry to say. Why not try a sample? You may be able to get one from Mugler or you could try Ebay. There are sites that sell samples like “ Surrender to Chance” or Luckyscent. They are reputable. Fragrance Net also sells decants. I’d send you some if I had it but I don’t
