...Has anyone who was fond of the older (1989) Laura Ashley No 1 tried this new version of the iconic floral fragrance? I am curious, what are your thoughts, reactions?

A fragrance gift this Christmas / holiday season ?
by Flavorite | Parfumo Community
...Sadly, my family will probably have an intervention if I request another perfume this year. Way to support individual interests! I will be giving my last unopened bottle of the Iceberg Fragrance to my Dad's Girlfriend, Library of Flowers Linden to a young female friend and Keiko Mecheri's Osthmanthus to my other elegant friend. I gave my husband my coveted bottle of Helmut Lang Cologne- which he is totally digging! I wish someone would surprise me one year with a bottle of Carnal Flower (Ha, fat chance!).

Dead-ringer fragrances as alternative
by Flavorite | Perfumes & Brands
...I've just reviewed and then fallen madly in love with Innocente Fragilité by Chabaud. It is not available in the US as far as I am able to determine. I felt it was close to IF by Apothia in some ways- Chabaud's creation has a little something extra- better floral development. I am wondering what I could layer with IF to get a similar effect. All suggestions welcome.

Penhaligon's Lily & Spice Lily & Spice (Eau de Parfum) - Penhaligon's
by Flavorite | Perfume Recommendations
...I've had this little sample for a couple of years...I tossed it aside even knowing that it was being discontinued. Now all of a sudden, it's all I want to smell. Liquid Stargazer Lily with subtle sillage. Does anyone who has sampled/owns Penhaligon's Lily and Spice know of another fragrance that is similar in low sillage and high complexity Stargazer Lily? Thanks for any and all input!

your sales relationship
by Flavorite | Parfumo Community
...I have 'a thing' going on with the Diptyque Representative at my local Nordstrom (Department Store). I appreciate his sense of metrostyle and daring in wearing even Volutes smells fine on him (considered heady creamy and femme). Also he abruptly poured out his life story which was not all fragrance and smiley faces, but bore many similarities to my own journey coincidently...instant rapport! When I told him I was moving he whipped out his card and said "Call Me if you need anything- even if I don't get the commission- I will have it sent directly to your house free of charge." Me Likey!
