      Frédérique-- what a perfect video for me!! Usually when I go back the first places I go are to Fragonard in Nice, or Èze or in the big department store like Galleries Lafayette so I can get my rare favorites and try new samples! I love two favorites of my mother and also the second one was also loved by Jackie Bouvier Kennedy-- the Guerlain Shalimar and Vol de Nuit ( I saw her big bottle in a movie about her!) Vol de Nuit is another one where one could be on the Orient Express! I loooove it, but it's hard to find. You have to go to Paris and the _grands magazines_.
      A newer Cartier that I really love is Panthère! I found it in France about 3-5 years ago, and I love it so much! I always get compliments on it.
      Also love the new No. 5 L' Eau de Chanel which is totally different from No. 5. I also am not really very fond of No 5, which for some reason doesn't suit me at all, ( too strong and maybe metallic + sweet) but I got a sample of the L'Eau and that is magic. It has a quality of _Rive Gauche_ ( which I love) or maybe _Knowing_ but it's so fresh and so sharp, chic. Paris! It's become a go-to. I also do not like sweet perfumes, and there are too many vapid and sweet ones around right now. But I love summer fragrances like _Soleil_ of Fragonard. If I am going out ( after the pandemic) for the evening I will stick to Shalimar, or Panthère or No.5 L'Eau!

      Hello Frédérique, my favorite fragrance is Perfume de Pau by Claude Montana. It is so sophisticated and unique and represents my personality. It is really hard to get, but thus far, I haven't found any proper replacement for it. My second favorites Coco Noir and Womanity (Mugler).

      OMG VioletFlame, please make yourself a priority for this. You don't need to wait for a special occasion either. Any day that you are alive is a special day and just as you make a point of paying all those household/car/insurance etc. bills, one bill that is important to pay for is for a nice perfume for you, the queen. Don't expect anyone to get it for you, get it and make it happen soon. Also, it doesn't have to be extremely expensive. $75.00 is enough to get a small bottle of something nice. Do it even if you have to save $10 in a cookie jar every month. You deserve it. I almost cried when I read your comment.

The new version smells nothing like the original and smells horrible on me. I'm heartbroken. Will be going back to my first scent...Chanel No. 5

    I never thought I would love any perfume as much as I do Cacharel’s Anais Anais. It has such a clean floral smell, like powder or soap. One new one I do love is Jo Malone’s Wild Bluebells, but it’s super fast-fading, even for a cologne, and doesn’t come in the longer-lasting perfume form. My Anais Eau de Cologne lasts all day. Fragrances made in France are always the best, the French have a long tradition of expert fragrance-making and always use high-quality natural ingredients. The only downside is that bees think I’m a flower and sometimes get a bit in my face.

    • @danielleS257

      Anais Anais was the first “nice” perfume I owned. Asked & received for my 16th birthday. Loved. Give Pure Grace by Philosophy a try. Very clean & soap like. Or Amazing Grace also by Philosophy, more floral than the Pure Grace but still clean. These are my every day perfumes.

    I have to wear perfume every day, irrespective of whether I'm going out or staying at home. Perfume is a must for me and I don't feel dressed without it. Even after a shower and going to bed, I'll apply something light. Perfume makes me happy.
    I have many, many perfumes that I enjoy wearing from time to time. It depends on the season and time of day but my signature perfume is Allure by Chanel and Sensuelle also by Chanel. I adore L'Ambre de Merveilles and 24 Fauboug and occasionally Twilly. Lighter eau de toilette faovourites for daytime are also by Hermes - Un Jardin Sur Le Nil, Le Jardin de Monsieur Li et Un Jardin Sur Le Toit. In winter time if I am going out, I love to wear Guerlain's Shalimar. It has sentimental value for me and always reminds me of my beloved mamma. Another old one for evenings out in winter is Amarige de Givenchy and Knowing by Estee Lauder. I just love, love, love perfume. 🥰💞
