post #1 of 8
Thread Starter 
Statistics time!

For June:
5\tFolavril
4\tJicky
3\tHeure Exquise, Nostalgia, Un Lys
2\tCalamus, Cèdre, Grand Amour, Nomadtea, Passion, Shalimar

For April-June:
11 Eau de Charlotte
9 Heure Exquise
8 Encens et Lavande
7 La Myrrhe
4 Jicky, Mûre et Musc Extrême

Like before, Eau de Charlotte is a big spring favourite, and Florals and Greens are summer staples. Despite its name Folavril is a wonderful summer scent. What surprises me is the comeback of the Classic Guerlains for summer, I thought I wore them most in winter!

This month I tried once again to wear as many different scents as possible... the truth is it was not hard... I was in a mood for a different one every day... with exceptions of wanting to wear Sonia Rykiel Woman for the past few days and for some reason not doing it....

So then I wore:

Gloria (I always get compliments when I wear it)
Stella (was not too impressed with it yet again, and still I keep trying to give it just another chance)
Agent Provocateur (as always, makes me feel so mysteriously sexy)
My Queen (glad to have it, but glad it's only a 10ml edp)
Flowerbomb (LOVE the way this smells on me)
Crystal Noir (one of my BIG TURN-AROUND scents... totally grew on me)
Emporio Night (not as impressed as I thought I'd be... lacks ooomph)
Prada (DH dreamed I was wearing it... says I smell like chocolate to him when I wear it... HE LOVES CHOCOLATE!)
Burberry Brit Red (reminded me of Just Cavalli and Emporio Night mixed together... not bad...)
Un Bois Vanille
Fleurs D' Oranger
Anglomania (love that slight leather note... not at all overpowering... just perfect for me)
Bvlgari Femme (sometimes this just does nothing for me... sometimes I LOVE IT!)
First Love (Van Cleef & Arpels) (alluring)
Just Cavalli (one of my creamy favorites)
Hanae Mori Butterfly (Hubby calls me his 'PETTIT BEURRE' when I wear this... reminds him of the smell of the biscuits...)
Burberry (day)
Samsara (always perfect!) (Evening)
Champs Elysées (DAY)
Musc Ravageur (this one is becoming a major hit with hubby ) (EVENING)
Alien
Le Baiser du Dragon
Lovely
Ruby Lips
Jasmin de Nuit (LIKE --- Falling in love!)
Velvet Flowers
Hypnotic Poison
Trouble
Aimez Moi (Whenever I wear it I wonder why I don't wear it all the time... LIKE EVERY DAY! I LOVE IT SO MUCH!)
Datura Noir (New bottle.. surprise from DH)
Apparition (all the talk about Apparition got to me... LOL)
and finally long awaited.... Sonia Rykiel Woman...

and all of them just once

I don't keep stats, maybe I should and that would help me scale back!

But June belonged to Vivenne Westwood (Libertine, Boudoir and Anglomania),
MPG (Soie Rouge and Jardin Blanc), and Vetiver, Zita, Samsara (wow, I'm happy to be with other Samsara enthusiasts), and experiments with loud stuff like Marilyn Miglin's Summer Marigold (which only comes in a SEVEN ounce bottle!)

For once Tigs, I have a response lolll. I've been wearing Acqua di Parma Lavanda tonic and Healing Gardens Lavender almost exclusively, sometimes separately, sometimes together. Guess I'm just Jonesing for lavender

Other than those two, it's been Evyan's Most Precious, a most delightful summer scent that's becoming quite rare. I've stocked up on this one and have a lifetime supply so I'll never run out of it. Fufu the Hoard.
