My wife wears "Quelle que fleurs" (sp?) by Houbigant. I bought it for her in the US but I believe it is French made. I love it as it is very feminine.

Molly I love Sisley's "Eau de Soir". I get a lot of compliments. A little goes a long way. Great poll.

Janice I have to say I love Coco also because years ago I was "in love" as a teenager with a French teen. He sent over Coco before it was released in the US. I thought I was hot stuff. I like it because it reminds me of my youth and my first romance.

Molly I purchased it at Neiman Marcus in Dallas. Also the spelling is Quelques Fleurs. Hope that helps.

My husband wears "Pasha de Cartier" by Cartier which smells great. Also I bought him "Chevalier d'Orsay" by Parfums d'Orsay when I was shopping at La Samaritaine. Hope this helps.

I like Coco, also. I used to like Chanel no. 5 but bought a bottle last year and I guess my taste has changed over the years, as I didn't care for it this time. <BR><BR>I like Lancome's Tresor very much, men seem to like it a lot, as well as Rive Gauche by YSL.

My wife wears Fragonnard "Murmure" which she picked up in Grasse at their factory. She also got some more in Paris at their outlet near the American Express. I adore that scent. She even carries these little pots in her purse -- solid perfume, I think they're called.<BR><BR>Other times she likes to wear "Habanita" I think it's called by another factory she dragged me to in Grasse. Moulinard, or something like that. That one is great too, but I think the first one is the best.

I have enjoyed wearing Champs Elysees.<BR>A little goes a long way and lasts a long time. This is by Guerlain.

I love "L'Air du Temps", "Joy", and, yes, "Chanel 5". The one I r-e-a-l-l-y love is "ODE", by Guerlain. I have not been able to find it here (in South. Calif) at all; maybe it's too old? We will be in Paris later this month for a couple days - I wonder if I'll be able to find it there?<BR><BR>Thise are the fragrances I really love. My guy likes "Red" and "Opium", neither of which are French?

I believe Opium is a French perfume.

Opium is French, it's by Yves Saint Laurent. Red is not, it's by somebody in Hollywood (actually, I used to work in the cosmetic/perfume business out there and know some people who worked on Red).<BR><BR>Guerlain doesn't make Ode any more.

Someone mentioned on another thread a website called classyperfumes.com. I checked it out and the prices are unbelievable - in fact, I'm not sure I believe them! Does anyone have any experience with this site? Are the perfumes the real thing or are they knockoffs? Anyone?

What sizes are the bottles? <BR>2 oz or 4 oz? <BR>The question is there!<BR>You can't compare, unless you have the very same item and size.
