I used to wear it every day when I worked.  But I wore it sparingly.  I had issues with strong scents, so I was also considerate of others.  Being at home now and retired I usually don't wear perfume unless I am going out.  I still do the same thing -- apply sparingly.

To be honest, many perfumes and most men's colognes smell like bug spray to me.  One of my great fears is being trapped in an elevator with an overly perfumed person. 


One of my greatest fears is being trapped in an elevator. I wouldn't even notice the perfume I'd be so completely terrified.

@Tinkrbl44   ...Other than the usual suspects like Ebay or Etsy or maybe the perfume outlet type stores....Have you googled them? I'm sure you have. I wore Shalimar way back when and loved it, too. I'm not familiar with the other one. It seems perfumes, skincare and makeup are always changing formulas.

I don't wear as much as I used to when I worked. However I still like to have a few around to wear when we go out. Not a floral person. Prefer gourmand scents.

Re: STILL WEAR PERFUME?

[ Edited ]

you guys remember the 1980s, when we salivated over fun smutty Judith Krantz novels, had great big shoulder pads, watched Dallas and Falconcrest nighttime soaps. And in keeping with the glam, over the top theme of that decade, we wore the bold department store perfumes-

Poison, Red Door, White Diamonds, Giorgio Beverly Hills, Obsession and more.

 

Confession: I have a bottle of Obsession which I love. But its so powerful. On the rare occasion when I wear it, I do a quick spray walk through. More than enough.

you will be delectable  Remember that if ppl dont comment on your fragrance, it doesn't mean the scent is gone. What i love about the Graces is the subtlety. If anyone hugs you they will enjoy it. 🥰

@smoochy 

Awww a walk down memory lane! 
loved the fashion, books, the shows, the fragrances!

 

Back then my fragrance was Jontue! I had the wash, lotion, perfume, spritz...you name it! My husband (then bf) said I was a symphony! Guess I overdid it! LOL!

I'm thinking the same, @MoJoV.  Maybe I'll order too.  I've been collecting Lataffa perfumes the last few months but one more won't hurt.  LOL
