I am looking for a new perfume, something along the line of Estee Lauder's Pleasures or White Linen Breeze...

Any suggestions???

Light and crisp is preferable.

I wear Estee Lauder's Pleasures. I also really like Avon's Haiku and Haiku Awakenings, if you know an Avon lady....

After two (yes, 2!) sinus surgeries, I don't wear perfume. I can't stand for anyone is my department to wear it either. Good thing I'm the manager, huh?????

I like Lancome's Miracle. It's a very light scent but also pleasing to the nose.

I also like Avon's Haiku (haven't tried Awakenings). Some of my other favorites are Jessica McClintock, Eternity, Escape, and Chanel No. 22. I'm not sure that any of them are really "light and crisp," but you can be the judge.

If you want a very light but clean scent, try The Healing Garden body lotion in "green tea therapy".

You can get it Wally World, Albertsons, or just about anywhere. Think it's around $7 for a big 12 oz. tube.

I like Elysium by Clarins. It has a light floral fragrance.

I have a hard time finding a perfume that doesn't make me sneeze or bother my alergies. Maybe I'll try that "green tea" lotion mentioned. I love perfume, sure wish I could wear it.!!!!

Well, whatever you wear, plese just don't wear too much. Nothing worse than having a toxic cloud follow you around.

I like Rapture by Victoria's Secret.

I find I can't wear anything too strong because I will get a headache very easily. This scent is just right for me.

You can get it Wally World




This reminded me of one that really is light and crisp - Fresh White Musk. It doesn't smell like musk. It's really light and pretty. And, you can buy it at Wally World.

Chanel No 5. I like the classics. Sometimes I'll do Poison though, but mostly because the name scares my sweetie

Lancome's "Attraction". Very light and subtle. Fairly new on the market.

White Diamonds or Cashmere Mist (this one is light, reminds me of the smell of baby powder).

I like vanilla fields. It's strong at first, but it mellows out throughout the day. I like the smell of vanilla, but it definately isn't for everyone.

Or, have you visited a L'Occitane store? In many malls, they have many natural styles (light and crisp), such as Green Tea, Lavenders, and flowers, etc. There is also a website - I think www.loccitane.com.

My fiancee bought me Eternity Purple Orchid for Xmas. It smells really nice. The other things that I like are from Bath & Body Works. I LOVE Cotton Blossom and Sweet Pea.
