Good morning!
A little bit too much fun and friends last night so I will need something to stay awake. Annick Goutal's Eau d'Hadrien e.d.p. will be perfect for that job.
Notes: Sicilian lemons, grapefruit and cypress.

It's ridiculously hot here today, quite unseasonably so.

However, one good thing about hot days is that I can wear certain fragrances that don't last on me when it's cold (something about my chemistry, I guess). Today I'm wearing the very delicious Very Irresistible by Givenchy. Mmmm. Roses and anise seed....

29 degrees celsius, sunny.

I was inspired to wear Samara but I thought it would be too provocative as I had to go to a university seminar today.

I ended up spritzing the Bond No. 9 Madison Soiree.
Notes: Gardenia, Jasmine and Oakmoss

It has a good staying power. I reckon this is a very good one for work. Elegant and not too intrusive!

I am working my way through a selection of things that may or may not end up on a swap list. Today's candidate is Flowerbomb.

I have a very bad habit of buying something, wearing it twice, subjecting it to critical inspection, and changing my mind.

I overslept, and I can't face the thought of going back to my freezing cold office... Bvlgari Omnia, if only because it smells like good tea and chocolate oranges.

Continuing with the three-to-four-a day concept I am going all out for L 'Artisan Parfumeur starting with Bois Farine (flowery, dainty) Fou D'Absinthe mid-day ("greeny, spicy, weedy") winding up with Mure et Musc Extreme (XTRA fruits and berries!)

Headed for the eighties (F) here at the beach today - allowing for some Q time with new granddaughter.:bounce:

Happy sniffing!

What an awesome idea; wishing I could pull that off at work But, in reality I'm lucky to be allowed one a day

I'm wearing Just Cavalli today:

Notes include Sicilian Bergamot, Ceylon Cinnamon, Bamboo Leaves, Wild Lily of The Valley, Apricot Tree Flower, Sambac Jasmine, Golden Amber, Madagascar Vanilla, Lebanese White Cedarwood, Powdery Musk

But, I could swear that I smell something like a very creamy tobacco flower or something like that... I freaking LOVE this fragrance!

Coconut, Madison Soiree is one of my favorites in the Bond line. To me, the drydown has a very feminine, clean aura and perfectly wearable for any occasion. I love it!

This morning it was AG Hadrien.

This evening, it's Bulgari Extreme, a fragrance I like much better now than I did in summer. Just sampling, though. No commitment, heaven forbid! ;-)

This morning I spritzed on some Eau des 4 Reines edt. I need to get edp in this because it has 0 lasting power on my skin in edt. This afternoon I'm testing Calypso "Candy" Rose by Calypso Christane Celle. So far I adore it. It may be too much like Jo Malone Red Roses for me to purchase a full bottle...but is such a lovely, crystal rose I may have to have it someday!
