I haven't smelt Acqua di Parma Iris Nobile for a few years, but my god after spraying some on my wrist this morning I'm still indulging in its gorgeous fragrance. It has a beautiful dry down, powdery with hints of florals and vanilla. Creamy, rich, elegant and classy - I want it!

No, it's more of a kind of baby powder or nappy rash cream kind of smell. It certainly seems more likely to originate from Johnsons than L'Oreal. Whatever it is it's deeply unpleasant, but also very prevalent. I can't think why anybody would choose to wear it.

I have at last found a wonderful perfume after searching for years to find something I liked after Guerlain Mitsouko ruined its original perfume.

It is Fragonard Belle de Nuit Intense. They sell it at M&S in some of their stores, or you can buy it on-line from them. It is a floral perfume nothing like my old favourite. I often get people asking me what it is even after I have sprayed it hours before. It is a truly lovely eau de parfum. It is £43 for 200ml and if you are like me, you wait till they have a 20% off event to make it cheaper.

Gucci Premier is utterly amazing it stays on literally all day.
for Men I find ysl l'homme libre really good a few sprays and even in the summer you
can still smell it.

Okay so I've realised that I love Acqua di Parma perfumes. I tried some Fico di Amalfi yesterday, immediately thought "nah don't like that," but soon changed my mind and bought some today. Although it is a very gentle fragrance the sillage is evident and beautiful. It's a summer scent though, designed to be worn in hot weather.

As others have said before your nose simply gets used to the smell after a while. The only time I tend to reapply is if I'm going out in the evening just to freshen up.
