Happy birthday to TaoLady, KiatBkk and VM I Hate Civet!
Hope you all are having great days.

I'm in Coco Mademoiselle today, thought I could do with some glamour as I'm off sick again as usual. This time it's my sinuses and throat. I'm very happy that my rheumatism is better, but the medication is knocking my immune system back, so I get infections all the time.

So many birthdays today! Toalady, KiatBKk and I Hate Civet-- have a wonderful day!

I am in L'Artisan Fleur d'Oranger, layered over Imaginez La Provence Orange body cream, and planning to go visit the rose garden at Elizabeth Park later on.

Some of our roses are already in bloom-- that is 2-3 weeks earlier than ever before! I want to check on the condition of the roses at the park so that I don't miss out on the optimal week to take my mother to see them.

Scent of the Evening

FLOWERBOMB
by Viktor & Rolf

Eau de Parfum

post #33 of 62
Mitsouko parfum. There's a magic about this not long after I put it on that I love. It's what I imagine molten gold should smell like, with a wonderful dark woody incense. I'm not too mad about the late drydown in the current parfum, so I keep re-applying. Any excuse...

Happy birthdays, birthday girls! May your fetes be fragrant!

Today I'm in a sample of Sahlini Femininde. Amazing stuff!

Wishing the happiest of birthdays to ....

Miss Tao, KiatBKk and I Hate Civet


Have an amazing day!!!




My SOTD is a mixture of Jo Malone White Jasmine & Mint along with Nectarine Blossom and Honey.

I've been at a conference for most of the week so I've not posted any SOTDs until now. But I took two fragrances with me.... Barbara Bui and Vivienne Westwood Let it Rock. I was amazed at how many compliments I received on Let it Rock. BB received no mention at all. Sad, since I felt it was the most lovely of the two fragrances.

Anyway, I am so glad to be back home.

Hope you both have a wonderful, fragrant day!

Hi guys,

Logging on from an amusement arcade in Bad Arolsen, Germany. I am on a four week business trip and today has felt a little peculiar, as (obviously) no one I have come into contact with today is aware I am celebrating. So it really buoyed me up to receive so many greetings on Basenotes.

May I take this opportunity to wish TAOLADY a very Happy Birthday, also KiatBkk.

And please excuse the low tech nature of this post - the keyboard is a little strange. : - )

SOTD is Guerlain Plus Que Jamais - my HGS still...

HAPPIEST BIRTHDAYS< dear ones !!!!!!!!!!!


OK.
So, where I been ?
Attending to health, hearth.

Yesterday- 32,000 people at Isaac's graduation from Harvard- enfin ;-)- SOTD : Le Temps D'Une Fete, bien sur.
Tomorrow am, Jacob goes to Munchen for a month, to study at the Goethe Institut.

B and I nearly lost our jobs-
Not funny ;-0

Doing a lot of writing and reflection.
Need to write a love-and-thank-you-letter to Pema Chodron.

Much love to all you good 'uns.
I miss you !

Many happy birthday wishes for Taolady, KiatBKk and I Hate Civet. End-of-May babies rock!

Thanks for all the lovely birthday wishes yesterday and today. And for the welcoming back--I've missed my BN friends!

The Prada Tuberose turned into faint snoozeville after a promising beginning. So I tried different fragrances with abandon yesterday while out and about celebrating, including Cuir Lancome (I see why the leather fans enjoy it, although the drydown was more my pace); Pacifica Egyptian Bergamot and Rose (yikes); and Kiehl's Original Musk (must have but still trying to decide between the oil and the EdT). You can bet I smelled interesting.

I'm heading off for a massage a bit later, so lavender essential oil it is for SotD.

Have a lovely weekend, all.
