    Not my area of expertise but I do think Angel by Thierry Mugle is a lovely fresh perfume.

    Usual deodorant for me - Dove invisible and I had a mini-one with my BM just incase. Wore my fave perfume, J'adore as I love it, H loves it and it lasts. My veil still has hints of it now ?

    I use Garnier After shaving roll on and spray deodorant as my underarms don't like being shaved at all! I've found its calmed my skin down a lot with regular use. I love Giorgio by Beverley Hills, I think it smells very posh but its really not! I got mine from Wilko for about £10 a Christmas or so ago, Boots sell it, but its more like £20.

    I bought a 'wedding perfume' Flowerbomb by Viktor and Rolf. I'm wearing it for all the prep (eg venue scouting trips, dress buying, meeting vicar) and on the day so the smell reminds me of our wedding!

    I've not really given this much thought, good point! Probably usual dove deodorant, but thinking about it a wedding day perfume would be really nice, something different, like others have said to assoiciate the day too. Another thing for the list...

    I tend to change my deodorant so I need to find a good one. I really want Mont Blanc perfum as I don't normally wear it and its something different which will be nice. I just don't want to sweat or for the smell to fade during the day, I may need to have supplies with me during the day.

    Deodorant always vary for me! I think a 48 one that's unscented, so not to throw off any scent from your perfume, and one that does not leave marks! As for perfume I would agree with the Viktor and Rolf flower bomb! Such a beautiful perfume..!They also have a scent, Viktor and Rolf Flowerbomb La Vie En Rose, which is a summery adaption of the original!

    I'm wearing Jo Malone's orange blossom scent. I didn't think to wear unscented deodorant, but will have a look for one now someone's mentioned that :o)

    Probably my usual deodorant (T'eo by Lush, hippie alert), and I might look for a new perfume, as I usually wear either Vanilliary by Lush or just plain old vanilla essence rubbed onto my pulse points. I've got a sample of Yves Rocher so elixir purple that smells gorgeous; maybe that, or a good old Jo Malone one. Blackberry and Bay is beautiful.

    I love Flowerbomb.. also Flower by Kenzo - and the new one by Kenzo (can't remember name though)...

    I'm probably wearing Y by Yves St. Laurant - my mum used to wear it all the time, and as she's passed, it'll be like she's there. Though it's not that easy to pick up now - last one came from Ebay.

    I prefer the cream deodorants rather than spray or roll on, but they're getting very hard to find! I have a 48 hour one which is good but the fragrance is very, very strong so I would definitely agree with going for unscented.

    I haven't worn proper perfume for years - I tend to just use those handbag size sprays that M&S and Next do and use them all the time. Might have to treat myself to a proper bottle of perfume, but then I wouldn't know where to start since it's so long since I've bought one!

    Despite all the lovely perfumes H2B insists on buying me, I always revert to my Next Gold perfume and my wedding day will be no different.

    Never considered a 'wedding day' perfume but it's a great idea to have a new perfume that we can always associate with the day

    Exactly this...

    I'm off perfume hunting tomorrow as I want something totally new to me that should still be available in years to come and which will always remind me of our special day. Xx
