janie48 Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 Join the scentaholics and buy lots and lots of them for yourself, like I do I specialise in picking things up for not very much on Ebay, but I've now got somewhere around 120 different scents to choose between every day. My shelf has everything from Je Reviens to a vintage bottle of Chanel No5 and my favourite of all, a vintage parfum bottle of Givenchy III 120 different scents. I have only three bottles of scents at the moment which i'm quite satisfied with,i like to smell nice but i do use perfume quite sparingly unless i'm getting dressed up to go out somewhere special,which isn't as often these days.

medusa Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 I've got all sorts of problems which mean that I can't wear the clothes that I want to wear, I react to makeup, I have to cover myself in moisturiser and I can't move about that much, but at least I can smell fabulous while I'm not doing much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KELLYP Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 What about anais anais ? Is that right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
janie48 Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 I would hate to be allergic to make-up i need it. I was shopping in Morrisons just before Xmas,and unexpectedly got some Je Reviens from there for £5 Its usually much dearer from anywhere else. I don't think you always need to spend a fortune on a nice perfume.M&S have a good range and some are very nice. ---------- Post added 24-02-2013 at 22:34 ---------- What about anais anais ? Is that right? Yes thats nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bassy Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 i think happy by clinique or sunflowers by elizabeth arden are probably quite suitable for that age group, both are floral and lively aromas, freash and clean smelling, lovely Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catpus Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 we are wanting to buy some perfume for my OH's 70 year old aunt, but other than Chanel no.5 I have no idea what perfume is suitable, can anyone help? what perfumes have been around forever??? I use Aromatics by Clinique and I'm old......Everybody comments and love it because it is so fresh. My friend uses Estee Lauder Beautiful, and my Sister Poison.
