    If only women would learn that perfume spraying should be subtle, not like taking a shower. A gentle hint, not a lighthouse beacon.

    My girlfriend gets sent out on the verandah when she is going to spray on her perfume. :)

    When my daughter lived at home she always seemed to spray her perfume on just as I was eating tea. In the end she had to go outside and spray it on. I got her a bottle of Suddenly this afternoon.

    There was a tester at my local Lidl and I found it a light, flowery, slightly sweet scent. I like Chanel and would know the difference immediately. This has a high alcohol base and does not have a "drydown" scent, i.e. the fragrance does not last long and change in a subtle way to base notes. Slightly chemical background smell. Good value for the money and a pleasant summer scent.
  • If you can smell perfume on yourself you are wearng too much. I bought some of this and find it ok just for work. :)

    Are you sure it doesn't last as long or has your nose just gotten used to it? You should stand outside the office I work in (at a school) after a break crikey the air is so thick with perfume you could cut it - nasty
