Default To take our mind off food - what was your first perfume? Do you still wear it?

and if not what do you wear now?



I wore Avon's pretty peach (yes, the shame of it! It was bleuuuch!)


Now? Miss Dior/Manifesto/Green Tea/J'Adore/Diesel plus plus feminine.

I think the first perfume I can remeber wearing was Estee Lauder's Youth Dew. It was all the rage back then (lol)

Now I have lots of favourites..........Dolce Vita (actually quite a few Dior ones), Anais Anais, Organza, Lou Lou, L'Air du Temps......to name a few.

I can't remember the first one (senile) usually whatever anyone buy's me unless it's really i remember wearing Pagan, Tabu and Youth Dew (a fella bought me that one) and i wore and still do Coty Laimant..i bought some in 2001 when i was last there and when i asked my daughter where i could find some she said "hmmm..maybe Boots..it's cheap is'nt it?" cheeky bugger. She wears all this stuff that costs 40-50 quid a bottle

I remember my mum buying me a bottle of perfume called "fashion" - I think it was by Coty. Other than that my mum was always moaning about me wearing too much Dewberry from the Body Shop. I then progressed to White Musk from the Body Shop - lol.

Now I have far too many perfumes to list, from the expensive ones to loads of Avon ones (have been an Avon Rep for the last year but am about to give it up). The most recent perfume I have got is "Flower" by Kenzo. My hubby bought it for Xmas (after a lot of subtle hints from me - lol). Funny thing is that he knew that I wanted "Flower" by Kenzo but the dosey sod went into Virgin records and asked for it as he thought it was an album - lmao.

I used to love Poison but haven't worn it for a while. I also love Tendre Poison. I like Opium too but it doesn't suit me.

I used to get bottles of Avon perfumes shaped like angels etc at christmas when I was wee....first one I bought myself was Colors by Benetton with my first (and only!) tax rebate!!
Then I went through the patchouli oil and Ylang Ylang stage and now I'm all growed up my favourites are Boss Intense and Organza, I've also got cheap and chic by Moschino which was a present but it's not bad. lol

I just like to use a little Elizabeth Taylor's White Diamonds powder.
I don't use a spray perfume.

I remember Youth Dew - my mum wore Tabu. I still love L'aimant. You certaily can still get it. It is in Boots and Superdrug in the UK in bottle or body spray form. I also really loved (and am wearing today!) Ma Griffe.
