Oh no, I've blind bought Libre as a birthday gift for my mum next week :ROFLMAO: hope she likes it!! What does it smell like?
It's very heady, if that's the right word - it's lovely but just completely overpowered my sinuses. It's a white floral scent but the base notes are what overwhelms me and they are PUNCHY! You only need the tiniest spray of it, I'd say it's a younger scent (I'm 54 :ROFLMAO: ) and my daughter has now got it as she loves it.

I tried the new la vie est belle perfume in boots.
All i got from it was a powdery parma violets smell which didn't develop into anything else. Its very pretty but i wouldn't splash out on it. Its called Elixir.
Same. I thought it was alright but didn’t last

Does anyone know a good dupe for the now discontinued Gucci by Gucci? It was my favourite perfume for years and I’ve never found any other perfumes that comes close! So gutted they ever got rid of it.

Currently wear Gucci Gorgeous Gardenia and Gucci Bamboo as my summer scents and the original YSL Libre for my autumn/winter scent but do agree with a previous post that it’s very punchy and can give me a headache if I wear it too much! Has anyone tried the new YSL Libre Flowers and Flames? Interested to know what that’d be like in comparison to the original Libre.

I tried the platinum one! Liked it but I didn’t even see the flowers one which I didn’t know about eithe. I did try paradoxe floral though and didn’t like it at all.

Is this the one in the brown square bottle? If so it smells like Narcisco Rodriquez (the original one in the black bottle). X

Can anyone recommend a nice clean fresh smelling scent? My absolute favourite is Glossier You but I can’t smell it on myself at all, even though other people compliment me on it.

If its the one in the large clear square bottle just called Gucci, Divain do a dupe for it which is pretty spot on.

Love byredo if you want to spend a bit of money. Not a perfume by Juliette has a gun is like a cousin of glossier you. Same clean but peppery notes.
also love another 13 by le labo. Bubblebath by replica is gorgeous if you want soapy clean, lazy Sunday morning is like a fresh linen clean too.

Versace yellow diamond is quite clean smelling too I think.

I just got Lancome hypnose. It's one of those ones I've always liked but never had, loving it so far. Will be great for the winter 😊

The Versace one is really cheap on Ryanair at the mo too, about £40 for 90ml if you know anyone going away. My husband is off to Milan for the footy this week and is under instructions not to return without a bottle!
