Kiehl's Musk Oil worn over a cheap but delicious almond and honey body cream.

That's a gorgeous avatar you have there, Riannon!

One dab of Divine Folie by Jean Patou in the morning (Thanks lovely Squeezeweasel for the sample) I have never seen the Divine Folie bottle in my life until I searched for the picture. It is very perfumey and powdery, I see the shadow of JOY with this bottle.

More Be Delicious for me in the late afternoon.

Hi everybody!

As most of my weekends are devoted to changing scent often and sampling, I am currently wearing Popi Moreni (thanks, twolfie!).
Notes taken from our directory: ylang-ylang, bergamot, geranium, coffee, mimosa, cilantro, orange blossom, heliotrope, broom, styrax, patchouli, vetiver, sandalwood, amber.

I can detect the coffee and heliotrope if I concentrate but everything else is so blended nothing really stands out. This is a fun, happy, summery fragrance - nice!

Yves Rochers Voile d' Ambre, shower gel, bodylotion and the pure perfume.
Soft and subtle, but nice! More of a skinscent, not much sillage.

Anyone tried the new Iris Noir, also from YR...?

Not yet, but I ordered it yesterday. Sadly, often you have to wait three weeks to get your stuff from YR..

I´m wearing Kingdom today.

Your sis sent me some, too. I've worn AS repeatedly. It's an odd animal in that it's amber, but elevated to a slightly higher key signature. It's curiously pleasant. I can't decide the precise degree of angle to place my thumb rating on this one--definitely on the upward slant though, maybe in the 10 o'clock position.

Wearing Wet Garden again today (always with a bit of La Chasse) just because DH loves it so.

THANK you, Gorgeous Dragon-Buddy. :looks mollified: (and I ditto Indiscreet - another provocative and alluring avatar!!)

TWMAG and her 'rents are in Charleston for the weekend, depriving me of my weekly baby-fix. Am consoling self with the adorable Miss Dior Cherie. It's not baby-powdery but is fresh and vibrant and has a sense of humor - like TWMAG!!

I hope everyone enjoyed their weekend. Mine turned out to be quite lovely. I am wearing Coney Island yet again today. I can't get enough of this stuff. My darling S/O likes it too. He is sooo in love with Alien, but wasn't upset that I didn't wear it after smelling the Coney Island. He loves it when I smell good....tee hee

Enjoy the Amber Splash, Mike and do let us know what you think! Quarry, I like it, too... and would also give it a 10 or 11 o'clock thumbs up, since the MJ Ivy is my very fave of this line so far.

Sharing the house with Taolady today, in the very elegant and slightly overdone (at least for my shorts and t-shirt today) Diorella.

Have a nice trip, Coco! Would be interesting to know if you find perfumes of Chinese production...

Spicegirl, you smell lovely, one of my faves!

After an evening shower with the Eau des Merveilles gel I will be putting on some Elixir des Merveilles as my SotE.

Thanks Lady! (and Dimples for the decant!) It's fast becoming one of my faves as well. Simply delicious, and definitely full-bottle worthy!

Went shooting at our club this morning and we both won SILVER medals; he for "A" level & me for "B" level. Thus my gyrating avatar in celebration!!

Wore tiny squirts of Diptyque's L'Ombre dans L'Eau (almost out, must get more) with several large spritz's of Virgin Island Water. Personally I think it inspired me to aim straighter!

and congratulations Sudsy. Keep Austalia shooting!

Testing Tom Ford's Tuscan Leather today- excellent and very realistic leather scent, a tad masculine on me and not enough bang for the buck to truly tempt me to buy. Moss Breches is, however, really calling me.

You guys rock!

In my underwear and aiming straighter , I went to work after a night with very little sleep. What kept me rolling were the gorgeous whiffs and positive vibes of Gueralin Philtre d'Amour that a wonderful BN friend sent here.

Forgetting to put on underwear can be a huge timesaver in many human endeavors!
