I couple of weeks ago I posted a thread about recommendations for floral type perfumes. I still haven't bought one (been a bit lazy).
Anyway my local My Chemist shop as a couple of one's that are reduced and just thought I'd get your opinions on them. I don't even know if these are all floral types or not.
They have on sale:
Kate Moss
Elizabeth Arden - Splender
Britney Spears - Curious
Mariah Carey - M
Britney Spears - Fantasy
Britney Spears - Believe
Jennifer Lopez - Still
Elizabeth Arden - Pretty
Jennifer Lopez - Love & Glamour
TIA

yes, paris IS revolting. My DH asked my best friend when he first met her not to wear it when she came to visit as it gives him an instant headache.
I don't know about the ones on the list, but have you tried Anais Anais, Issey Miyake, daisy by Marc Jacobs? these are all nice florals.

Funny you say that cause I actually wore it in my early 20's. I use to love it. I'd probably smell it now and not like it

I think what was meant (which was what I was referring to) was Paris by Yves Saint Laurent.

Im not sure about any on your list but I really like the new one by Sarah Jessica Parker. Im not sure what its called but my work mate wears it and it is really floral and pretty.
You can often get SJP cheap at the chemist too.
The Sarah Jessica Parker perfumes are all beautiful (Lovely, Endless, Dawn & Twilight) but Covert is far too strong and overpowering and really lets the collection down. I got a whiff of the new one (called SJP NYC) while in the US last month and it's also really nice.
I just bought Jennifer Lopez's "Still" as I was already a big fan of Glow and knew I'd like this one too. I hunted all over Hawaii for it but it was constantly sold out so I just bought it back here in Oz but luckily it was on sale so not too bad a price for a first time purchase of a perfume you aren't 100% sure of yet. I'm loving it so far so that's lucky and I'm glad I finally got it as it's a great day perfume. I keep my bottle of Lovely for evenings as it was given to me by my hubby the morning of our wedding so I consider it a very romantic, special scent.

They had pretty and I tried it. I was lovely and from memory only $30. I'll definatley get that next time. I ended up getting True Love which was a bargain at $12 and Fantasy Midnight. Thought I'd try something new.
I also love SJP Lovely. I got that when it first came out and loved it!!!!

Out of the ones that are on sale, I would say Fantasy. Think sweet. Think Strawberries.
