Well, I'll never forget the scent of Safari or the woman who wore it!

The perfume I wear varies with my mood. current favourites include:
Gucci Envy
Guerlain Arpege (current fav but found a lot of people are allergic to it here)
Guerlain Mitouko
The latest by Christian Lacroix-bottle shaped like a sea shell
Bvlgari Petits et Mamans
Estee Lauder White Linen (very old fashioned but can't seem to wean myself off it)

Dolce and Gabbana - the original one in the red box. Beautiful, I often get asked what's making me smell so good.
The men's cologne, in the dark blue box is also great. Very yum

I only use Dune by Christian Dior - if only they produced more of the body moisturiser instead of that pathetic small bottle.

Have also used & liked Samsara but it is a little too strong for me.

My favourite classic: "Y" by YSL. Very classy and discrete.
My favourite to wear for the office: Eternity (Calvin Klein).
To wear at an evening function: "Temptation" by Paloma Picasso. Or the original Paloma Picasso.
Everyday use in warm weather: Cool Water by DAvidoff.
The new Ralph Lauren one (Glamorous) is also pretty good.
I do hate sweet and heavy perfumes like Poison, and most of the Christian Dior ones.
And all the Hilfinger stuff smells like mosquito repellant to me...

Does anyone know where I can get Shiseido Feminite des Bois?  Can't seem to find it here but saw it in duty free at some airport once.  Also am looking for Habit Rouge (men's) by Guerlain (or is it by Hermes?)

Rumba by Balenciaga, Bellodgia by Caron and Canoe by Dana

gypsy - you may do this already, but try the following (if you don't): www.perfumebay.com  
I've just checked it out and Feminite du Bois is currently available, as well as Habit Rouge by Guerlain.
I buy all my perfumes on-line because there's such a vast range. Plus, you can get a lot of obscure fragrances that are generally not brought into many countries.
I've found this company great to deal with.
ps They're also a lot cheaper as well, when you purchase on-line Try www.PerfumeCenter.com  too, although your particular Shiseido perfume isn't there - but others Shiseido ones are.
