Goodmorning

Oh alright, I will stay away from the Guerlains for a day. Shalimar Eau Légère felt too much like cheating on this Sniff and Speak Day

Vaniglia Bourbon & Mandarino di Sicilia Antica Farmacista

Gourmand eh? I smell absolutely edible.
Coco, I think we are a match made in heaven

Have a 'yummie' Saturday :bounce:

Good morning everyone - no sun up yet, walking around with a flashlight - since workman snipped an electrical cord yesterday - thankfully not to the power for my puter or phone.

I have a singularly un-gourmand wardrobe - but found a sample here that I think qualifies -
MPG Bahiana

Will wear it and think of Jorge Amado who captured Bahia Brazil with his pen - hopefully this will do it with scent.

Have a nice Saturday!

I still have a horrible cold but I've just roused myself to go shopping - chocolate shopping.
So I'm wearing Angel in the extrait, which is far superior to the EDP. It's softer and more honeyed. I really love it.

Warm here again today..Havana seems a good choice, so Havana it is.

.......I may go for this later in the day if and when my current combo of Vanille Abricot (Coco!!!) and Sex on the Beach (Melon! Pineapple!! Raspberries!!) wears off, which they tell me Demeters do. (I just HAD to get this 'cause of the name and besides Strawberry Net was practically giving it away.)

I luvluvluv this category. Just couldn't wait to see what all y'all were gonna do. Am scampering off to check out WordBird's Tesco's Finest Fig because the day is young and I may have to go figgy later on.

I'm testing Prada today. I don't think it's a gourmand but it definitely smells yummy! I think a purchase will follow (or a subtle hint for a Christmas gift :-)

For today's Gourmand Sniff & Speak, I am reveling in the lovely and supremely unexepected floral-and-woody gourmand Michael Storer Yvette.

Notes: Muget, tarragon, vanilla, white chocolate, oakmoss, ambrette, precious woods.

I definitely feel delicious in this.

My husband gave me an early Hanukkah/congrats on finishing Nanowrimo gift of a decant of Dyptique Do Son. So I am wearing it.

Thank you to sofresh, who recommended it as a nice tuberose! It's LOVELY, I love love love the second stage where it smells like warmth. Sadly, my skin eats it up in under two hours. Not even the listed note of musk shows up after that.

So I will switch to a gourmand after it fades. I am hoping for some samples from LuckyScent, so if they come I will try Untitled #5, otherwise it will be MaryKay Tribute - a perfume with a Cherry Vanilla Souffle accord.

Since I own very few gourmand scents as most don't agree with me, I'll choose one of the few that I do love and can wear well... HYPNOTIC PIOSON. Warm and delicious!

I am wearing Ava Luxe Love's True Bluish Light (it's a light musk, but has lots of vanilla, so it counts as a gourmand, right?).

It was a gift from the very nice man who is helping me untangle and hang my Christmas lights around the outside of my house. He's doing chores for me and brought me a gift! I am spoiled.

I totally forgot about SnS today or I would have worn my beloved Alien. Anyhoo, I decided to try out my sample of Ange ou Demon. I got the smell of Brut meets Omnia on my skin. It's funny cause I wore Omnia yesterday and I thought that it must be in my room from yesterday. I went to read the review and someone else got the Omnia presence as well. So, I'm finally getting to the point were I may be able to figure out these different notes soon.....WoooPeeeee!!!
