...I agree La Route Emeraude is lovely, but also incredibly sweet. I also recommend Ramon Monegal - Lovely Day. Glorious sunshine perfume with Jasmine that is not indolic. Yay!

...Rosecat:Montale "sweet oriental dream" & KM "Loukhoum" are very similar indeed! I own both, and You will like either of them :) Montale & Keiko do some...

...a good deal on Habantia so snapped it up. Thanks Rosecat for introducing me.And I'm glad to say my Bvlgari Blv Notte blind buy turned up trumps...

...perfumes also conjure China for me. The lovely Rosecat put me onto these two pretty ones which are made in China and available on ebay: Osmanthus by Liang Zi and Irene...

...D) I try them all at ~ on arms & legs! I just cant help it, im way too curious & impatient. I just tried all my 5 samples today (Monegal). But.... I then test them idividualy or 2 at a time, on following days to really test it out properly.

...So apart from "Eau de ciel" there are 2 others i can think of though i have no tried: Frau " No 10 Unter de linden" & April aromatics "Unter de linden"

...you, rosecat! I will sample both of these...

...Mome by Balmain.Really like this - thanks Rosecat!...

...Montale "sweet oriental dream" & KM "Loukhoum" are very similar indeed! I own both, and You will like either of them :) Montale & Keiko do some fabulous Rose fragrances too, cant really go wrong with those.

...I get that with "Boudoir" , but i simply cannot wear it!!

...I also find Jo Malone line has some quite simple blends. How do you feel about incense or / & musk notes?! I tried these recently and might be worth trying. They have qualities you may be after. Tonkamande Parfumerie Generale Encense Liquide Memoire Liquide

...Keiko mecheri Loukhoum! I love this and decided i really dont want to be without it.

...and Rosecat, thank you for the suggestions...

...I found this to be quite woody & vanillic "Cadjmere" PG perfumes. Very well suited for winter/autumn. Its creamy somewhat too.

...What about "Monegal Cherry Musk" !? Im hearing great reveiws, has anyone here tried it?!

...Hmmmm I feel so many perfumes make me feel fabulous, despite any turmoil that may be going on in my life. Im thinking possibly Isabey Fleur Nocturne & Lipstick Rose, as they both sit so perfectly comfortably on my skin, yet project just right!

...Hello!! Good to hear :) I have had great experience from "SmellBent" he hand writes notes and throws an extra in there too. Though it takes a little longer than 2 weeks for international delivery. My friend ordered direct from "Rose de Rosine" and was very happy, they were quite prompt too.

...I seem to be going for "Sweet Oriental Dream" & or "Loukhoum Du Soir"

...I would have loved the original Isabey Fleur Nocturne - Blue de Chine and these: Vol De nuit, Habanita, and a Rose fragrance...

...How about Annick Goutal "Eau de Ciel"?! its a vety true linden I've found.
