Damn, I tried to have Dinner four times also during September, and walked away from the meal. Still hungry.

Nevertheless, runners-up were:
3 Miel de Bois
3 Sanctuary Pour Homme
3 Ambre Sultan
2 Bois d'Argent
2 Tam Dao

Your words have me picturing Pippi Longstocking, but I know better!

I noticed I had very little repeat wearing this past month: I was stressed out and overworked, and even ended
up skipping fragrances altogether on a couple of hellish days.
Nonetheless, my most-worn scent was Passage d'Enfer, which always seems clean, reserved, and distinctly non-cuddly. :

;D ;D ;D

Mark, Pippi Longstocking was my childhood heroine #1! I even had a Pippi wig and a Pippi dress (complete with matching tights) my mother had knitted for me... :

Sad to hear you had a bad September, hope October will be better! :-*

I bought a looot of fragrances in the past two months, so I wore different scents almost every day. But here are the "winners":

September 05:
1. Helmut Lang Eau de Cologne (5 times)
2. CdG Series 2: Carnation (4 times)
3. Kiehl's Original Musk (Oil) (3 times)

July - September 05:

1. Thierry Mugler scents that start with "A" (Angel+Innocent+A*Men) (16 times)
2. CdG Scents (7 times)
Â* Â*Helmut Lang Eau de Cologne
3. Chanel No.22 (5 times)
Â* Â*Lancôme Aroma Tonic

The "losers" are:

-Ermenegildo Zegna - Essenza di Zegna: Wore it once and never again, good fragrance but not for me.
-VC&A - Tsar: see above, but I will try it again in the fall.
-Tuscany per uomo: ...maybe in the fall...
- Guerlain - Â*Agua Allegoria Mentafollia: Absolutely amazing scent, but absolutely no staying power.

Fragrances that did not make it this time:

- Mitsouko: I just discovered the beauty of this scent and how good it smells on me.
- YSL - Rive Gauche pour homme: It's not as harsh and über-masculine like other scents in this family. It has a very nice smooth side and amazing staying-power. THE one for formal events this winter.
- Caron L'Anarchiste and Cacharel Nemo: Too many new purchases in the last months. So I couldn't wear them as often as they'd deserve it.

P.S.: Hey Tigs, where's your dancing tiger? Will he ever dance again? I hope he's just tired...

Don't worry, Timothy: he's taking a nap now but he'll be bouncing again...

Well goodness. I didn't wear the same fragrance more than one day this past month, Tigs. I do plan to wear the current version of Arpege more often in October, though, because I got great compliments on it the last time I wore it.

I only repeated two fragrances this month, which is sort of a surprise to me, actually. And they were: Angel (no surprise there) and L'Instant.

Five were never worn-before testings: Hove Spanish Moss, Knize Ten, KL, Derby, and Eau Lente.

This is fun to keep track so I'm going to start every month now.
