No Gingerlily for me, I went right off it. Love the Coastal one though and I've a perfume of it somewhere in the black hole. I like the Rosa Absolute, Rhubarb and also the Blue Maquis hand wash. Both pink and black pepper are good for me but I think the pink is nicer. Desperate to buy that Coastal and Geranium set but I've still got family to buy for and I don't think my nephews would be slightest bit interested.

I have never tried MB, stuck to the supermarket brands but now I’m 66 I find my skin is dry & itchy and needs more TLC.
Can the MB fans on here tell me which is their fave scent and why please ? Im planning a trip to the MB counter in our John Lewis this week.

There was 20% off MB last week....I like Eucalyptus specially in the winter when you get colds and flu. Love Oud for the winter, pink pepper is nice, Rhubarb Rose, Geranium Nefertum. Like most of them tbh. The perfumes are nice

CC, this is an excellent dupe of Coastal. I’ve got both in the stash and while MB is a slightly nicer consistency, I’m genuinely happy to use either…

Am I going to be the forum outcast? :cry:

I wonder if I am confusing Coastal Cypress and Blue Maquis. Aren't they very similar aquatics?

I’ve never actually tried BM Andi, but from what I remember, it’s a slightly darker colour than Coastal which I’d call a sky blue maybe?

M&S do dupes of MB they smell really good
Lidl and Aldi do dupes of the hand washes, too. Speaking of which, I notice Aldi have changed a lot of their packaging on dupes of all the beauty stuff they do now so it's not quite as obviously a rip-off (I love it, by the way, not having a go at them!).

I can vouch for the M&S dupes (Fragrance Society collection). As I think I said a while back, the Black Pepper one looks the identical consistency and shade of amber/brown in the bottle. They often have discounts on the range, too. Also some nice duos/sets for Christmas.
 
What's geranium like, Andi? My worry is that it'll be sweet? (Fig) haven't tried Suede or Russian, so those similarities pass me by.
Sorry, I forgot to reply to this. There is a sort of sweetness to it but I wouldn't say fig - it’s not sugary or flowery, more spicy? I’d say it is more masculine but I usually like that in a fragrance. MrMarple described it nicely last year:

".... if Coastal Cypress & Russian Leather had a baby, I think it might smell like GN. It's really nice BTW, definitely one of my new favourites."

Thanks! I've not tried Russian Leather.
