I am glad your mum would have shared her stash, but now you have enough perfume to keep you both going for some time to come. Choose between: Suddenly Woman 1 or Suddenly Diamonds or Suddenly Madame Glamour Eau de Parfum Scent from a great brand.

CCM is the hi-def plasma screen, while SMG is the high-end CRT – still gives great picture quality but lacks the definition of the plasma! I think it is fine as an introduction to perfume for people who don't have yet a set taste and don't want to spend a lot.

First of all I put ear plugs in, in case I might be swayed by the sound of differential sloshing noises (the small vial of Coco Mademoiselle vs the 50 ml bottle of Suddenly Madame Glamour).

To be honest I'm not familiar with Coco Mademoiselle - I didn't like the original Coco and so I've never tried it. I am afraid I can't help you on that specific point, but maybe some Lidl staff in The Midlands might be looking in.
