I think I must be caught in some sort of time warp because I love the smell of Youth Dew by Estee Lauder. It's been around even longer than I have, but I don't care, I think it smells absolutely gorgeous.

I swap between Body Shop Vanilla and their Jasmine & Neroli. I used to use White Musk but mum decided she liked it so I had to stop using it because using the same as your mum is a bit sad. She used it for years and had amassed three new bottles when she smelt someone elses perfume and decided she liked that one better. She now uses Gucci Rush and another that I can't remember.

I'm horribly allergic to Lavender.

Brummie Helen I used to pack and bottle perfumes back in the 70s,
Gingham,
Chantilly Lace
Youth Dew
Channel No5
Tweed
Musk
Poison and manymore

We bottled hundreds of different sorts. I didn't wear perfume for many years as I couldn't stand the smell.

I have just been given the new one by christine aguilera, I love the smell of that, I also love Angel, it reminds me of my mate that died, she always wore it..

My pet hate was heavy perfumes when we made them, Youth Dew was the worst as was Poison, in fact I never did like any of the perfumes we bottled, everything was way over the top so you couldn't really get a delicate smell of any of them, I always smelled so much of anything we had been bottled that day.

My favourite one of all time is Spring Rain by Crabtree and Evelyn. Got discontinued a few years ago but my parents found some in an outlet centre a couple of months ago so now have four bottles of it! The other perfume I can't get enough of is Chanel No 5.

Looking at all these designer perfumes we know have, haven't time changed.
In my teens most talcs and soaps where by Yardley..........and we all wore Charlie and Gingham, felt really grown up when I was bought things like Nicca Ricca and Yves st Laurent Rive Gauche. for Christmas :O)

What other prerumes do you remember from your teens ?
