Fav/popular perfume. Stuck for ideas HELP - 31-10-05, 08:45 AM

My daughter is 25 on the 2nd nov and my son (20) wants to get her something. I suggested some nice perfume as she cant afford many treats. which one is popular at the moment. I havent bought any in months.
HELP.
Its a real chore for men of 20 to buy the sister. I suggested a cd token or a BOOTS token and she can get herself some make-up and stuff. He wants to spend about £50.
Come on you 25 year olds give me a clue, or anyone for that matter. whats in and wots not.

I love any perfume by Jo Malone, but my fave is Basil, Lime and Mandarin. Sounds gross but it's a really fresh smell.

Thanks sassey.
Its hard to think of what perfume someone else might like, its a personal thing. I hate trying to think of pressys for someone. Id rather give tokens or cash. but then you think have i given them enough Hee hee
Its the thought that counts huh?

Oh, I love Jo Malone perfume too. I have Chanel No5, CK One Summer, Silver Rain....My other half works abroad alot so always brings back a bottle of something. Most of the time he hasn't a clue what's he's buying just as long as it's in a nice bottle!! Bless him!

Perhaps they could go up town one day and casually pop past Boots (he's gotta get something that's near the perfume counter?..heh heh heh)....hopefully she'll have a mooch at the perfumes...I do if hubby's near that section....all he has to do is keep an eye on her what she's trying etc. I've done this before with my hubby...usually a month or two before xmas or his birthday.

I'm 5 years below 25 lol close enough, but I loooove Coco Chanel Mademoiselle, it's my fave!!
I also like I Love, Love by Moschino, it's quite sweet smelling, it's smells quite orangey at first but once it settles its gorgeous.

I'm loving Prada at the moment, it's gorgeous.
Curious by Britney is also really nice, it's a lighter fragrance.

I think that tokens are the best idea, that way she can choose exactly what she wants. He musttell her that he got her the tokens (if he does) because he wants her to choose something that shell love and not because he couldnt be bothered to think of anything.xx

I'm 25 so do i qualify!!!

I have loads of favourites but i love

DKNY Delicious
Emporio Amarni
Cool Waters for women

How about the little testers that Boots do, i think you get about 5 little bottles for about £15, they are always a good idea cause if your not keen on a certain one you havent forked out on a large bottle!
