    I've had a quick sniff and you might like
    Paul Smith Floral - but not old floral!
    L'Eau Par Kenzo - more soapy not young
    Ralph Lauren Blue
    an odd one, I don't know if they still do it is Clinique Simply - grew on me, smells soft, powdery

    Yes I love the sound of clinique simply - if i could bottle johnsons baby talc in a spray I would gladly wear that!

    Isnt it funny how we percieve smells, I know just what you mean by soft. powdery.

    Blo&%y brilliant! I am off to order some!

    At that price I think it will be worth a try and if its not as nice as I expect I can spray it on my linen.

    Ha ha just noticed you can buy eau de Play Doh! LOL

    :TYou are a little star!:T

    How odd - who would choose to smell of leather all day?

    mmmm perhaps if you bought a cheap leather look coat you might......

    My mind is boggled with all of these lovely scents now.

    From the lists I have been given today - John Paul Gaultier has been mentioned most I think, but I don't like it on me.

    Good question - i like clean soapy smells but not young fresh stuff like Cool Water or SJP Lovely.
    I love vanilla smells and coconut smells for lotions and round the house.

    I like the more sensual smells - ghost deep for example, I love flowery smells too but nothing rose as it tends to make me think of Nan's drawer liners!

    I have passed people at work and out and about shopping and as they wafted past I got a whiff of loveliness and thats what I want for me :)

    I'm jotting all your suggestions down and Im going into Debenhams tomorrow armed with it for a sniffathon.:rotfl:
    The Nina Ricci I mentioned earlier seems like orange flowers I think:D
