Most worn in August

Here are my statistics for August, looking forward to seeing yours!

5 Sublime
4 Dinner by Bobo, Lemon Sorbet
2 Ambre Extrême, Eau du Fier, Égoïste, Encens et Lavande, Heliotrope, Rose d’Amour, Serendipitous, Shaal Nur

For once I have been wearing Sublime, one of my most neglected True Loves.
Dinner has turned into my "trip to Tallinn" scent, I've packed it with me for the last three or four trips, the little dropper bottle is so handy and the scent never fails to put a smile on my face...
Égoïste is connected to the 10th wedding anniversary - it was the scent we got married in!
Otherwise August was an Etro month with some Rosines and CdGs thrown in. The cooler weather also meant that some ambers and gourmands were dug out.

For the warm part of the month, Terracotta Voile d'ete and Herba Fresca (Guerlain).
For the cold days, it's been pretty much Flower Oriental, Jungle L'Elephant, and Feminite du Bois.
Shiseido Zen (pearl) parfum essence for peaceful evenings.

I had four scents that had repeat wearings this month: Angel, Addict, Eau des Merveilles, and Pink Sugar, all with two wearings each. Everything else was single wearings.

I also wore three fragrances for the very first time: Vega, Blue Amber, and Daim Blond.

I wore 14 different scents this month, but the clear winner is:
Carthusia Io Capri
Cabochard and Miss Balmain were each worn three times.

Problem is: DH can't stand the Carthusia, but I'd be happy to make it my everyday scent.

I cannot even believe this myself! I usually almost never wear the same fragrance twice in a month (unless we are on vacation that is)... but August tells quite a different story about me!

L’Instant de Guerlain 4x
Allure Sensuelle 3x
Flowerbomb 2x
Vanilla Lace 2x
Gloria 2x
Alien 2x

Now how about that!

Following fargs I wore only once - but I did wear more then one farg in a day more then a few times this month! (yet another anomaly to report LOL)

Balmya, FlowerbyKenzo, Deci Dela, Hypnôse & Narcisse, Sonia Rykiel Woman, Bvlgari Black, Burberry, Madness, Poême, Hanae Mori - Butterfly, Kenneth Cole NY, Hypnotic Poison, Pure Poison, Just Cavalli, Dior Addict, Voile d'Ambre & Prada, Fleurs d'oranger (SL), Pink Sugar, Datura Noir (SL).

My Stats:

5x- Montale Intense Tiare; Fracas; Coco
4x- Trouble; Montale Sweet Oriental Dream
3x- Shaal Nur; Norma Kamali Incense; Leilani; Shalimar
2x- Demeter Salt Air; Chloe; Feminite du Bois
1x- Chanel No 22; Manifesto; Vega; LAir du Desert Marocain; Etro New Tradition; Jaipur; Jil Sander No 4; Aqaba Jewels of Blu; Coco Mademoiselle; JPG Classique; Kai; Te; Eau de Patou; Douceur de Vanille; Etro Sandalo

Usually in August I bring on the Eau de Patou, but there weren't too many scorching days here. Found myself reaching for the Montales a lot and as always, enjoying the Orientals still. Many of them seem good for year round use. We've had some downright nippy evenings and I couldn't resist breaking out the Feminite du Bois- it's turned into a Fall favorite!

Another restless month scentwise, but the documentation was a bit shaky. Many new discoveries thanks to sweet basenoters. The repeats were:

3 wearings: Mugler - Angel, L´Artisan - Premièr Figuier
2 wearings: Guerlain - Shalimar au legère, Ungaro - Desnuda, Hermès - Hiris, K.M - Gourmandises

18 different scents worn, some chages of SotE included. The top 3 House ranking seems to be:

Guerlain
Mugler / L´Artisan
Caron / Hermès / Ungaro / Keiko Mecheri

I wore La Rose du Petit Prince almost every day XD it's a child's perfume, but GORGEOUS, fresh, and surprisingly long-lasting for an EDT.
