SotD Saturday 9 February

post #1 of 51
Thread Starter 
Mitsouko for the fourth day in a row.

Have a wonderful weekend!
post #2 of 51
Put on a little Hugo Boss Deep Red in the morning cause I couldn't be bothered showering before I got my hair cut just up the road. I think I don't dislike this one as much as I thought I did....

After getting about two inches taken off and a shower, I put on my much-neglected Armani Mania since this is SUCH a cold and rainy day. It's been ages since I last wore it, and it feels unfamiliar as to how I remember. It doesn't seem nearly so sweet (probably because of all the super sweet concoctions I've been wearing lately), and WAY more woodsy. Still a very comforting, warm scent, that makes me feel sophisticated and classy even though I'm just hanging around the house.

Le Chèvrefeuille by Annick Goutal.
post #4 of 51

The scent of the day was picked for me by Taolady:

Maria Amalia

I think Taolady, Lady_in_Black and I are the only ones who have this scent and it was the start of a wonderful friendship.
For those who want to read the notes and the story of a determined Lady, searching for Maria Amalia, go this this thread.

The sun is shining bright, I have seen buds on the trees already and this fragrance is perfect for today: the earthy and spicy notes sing of a new beginning.
Perfect choice, my OBB Tao.

And for the evening, when it will be cold again, Jillsy has chosen a great companion to a dinner party followed by an evening with jazz music:

Black Cashmere

I think I need to wear leather and silk with this one
Also: perfect choice, dear Jillsy.

A wonderful weekend to you all. Enjoy it to the fullest.

I have a cold starting and hubby has a full-blown streamer but we're going skiing anyway (OK, probably more hot chocolate drinking than skiing for hubby). So today it has to be YSl Nu.

post #11 of 51
Am doing a half-day retreat for some lady friends this ayem - will greet them in the fresh and lilting...

Geranium Bourbon
thanks to Jillsy's EXCELLENT taste in choosing my SOTD!!

I just love this one 'cause it's unusual.Tangy but not excessively citrus - just like lemon geranium with a hint of English rose.

But I gotta say I was tempted by Riannon's Maria Amalia....y'all gotta try that one too.

Hello everyone, Guerlain Angelique Noire for me today.
post #15 of 51
Unsuitable maybe for today's sunny day, but it's my first time wearing Eau d'Italie's Bois d'Ombrie .(my first Duchafour also)

Serene like a deep,dark forrest.
post #16 of 51
Today I'll be wearing Un Bois Vanille! The daughter's boyfriend is coming for dinner...since I already know she'll be spritzing on some Burberry Brit EDP, I think this SL will compliment - hopefully, and not clash - with her sotd! (I hate meeting 'the boyfriend' ~ but probably not as much as HE hates meeting 'the parents'!!!") Oh, well...off we go....
post #17 of 51
Giving blood today with some very handsome hockey players (Go CAPS!!!!).
Dior Hypnotic Poison - 'cause that's the scent I've gotten the most compliments on over the years.
Maybe I can convince them to add more signatures to the BFs jersey while I'm there.....

Had to get up extremely early ( 5.30) to take the "work bus" to work.That bus takes ages to get there..and then you have to wait an hour before your workday actually starts :P I wore Jicky edt as my sotd to try make me feel more awake.Sote is chosen by Silverbullett,and that is Nahema edp again.Less fruity and more woody to my nose today. Enjoy your day folks

My pleasure Michael! I have always wanted to smell Noir Epices on others.
As for myself, I have taken Shalimar for a ride and made a huge dent to my wallet. I bought a pair of heels, a pair of trainers and a Ostrich clutch bag

As per requested by Mr. Silverbullet, I will wear Azzaro 9 to bed It resembles the Maitre Parfumeur et Gantier Bahiana only more sparkly!

Bois des Îles followed by Chergui? I hope your DH and others you encounter reailze how amazing you smell in those two. Pleased to know you enjoyed my suggestion.

For the evening, I am in a quandry. I am torn between my newish bottles of Kingdom and Yatagan. May continue with Coco's excellent suggestion of Noir Epices again. Decisions...

Sortilege by Le Galion will be my after shower scent.

SoTE is Jil Sander No.4
post #45 of 51
SotD was Hiris, suggested for me by Dulci. It's one that gets neglected in my wardrobe, and I enjoyed rediscovering it today (it'll need restocking soon!).

It's more floral than my usual fare, but not over the top.

Top notes: \tCoriander, Carrots, Ambrette \t
Middle notes: \tNeroli, Rose, Orris, Hay
Base notes: \tCedarwood, Almond tree, Vanilla, Honey

Thanks for a lovely suggestion, Dulci!

SotE is Flowerbomb EDP + the "Bomblicious" body creme.

SotD: L'Artisan Vanilia again.

SotE: Agent Provacateur. This is so not me, yet every now and then I get a craving for it. It smells really great tonight.

I wore Tom Ford's Black Orchid this evening
and received a compliment. Our waitress upon returning to
our table, the second time, commented again and this time
asked if she could write it down so she doesn't forget.
That's awesome .
post #49 of 51
SotD... nothing. Got my hair done so basically I smelled like Aveda hair colour for most of the day. Wore Habanita EdT to dinner at the Pizzaria Napoletana. Great pizza, much fun was had, and according to my Napoletana friend I am an honorary Italian due to my "eat, eat!" attitude.

To bed in Dat Noir. DH2B has a surprize planned for tomorrow (my birthday, I'll be twelve ) I'm very excited.
