Dear tdem61, Happy Birthday to you and many fragrant wishes. Happy Birthday to actiasluna too (as per her request!). Hahahahaha.

I am undecided yet -- stormy here -- but most probably it will be Patou Nacre again -- I have been trying this for the fourth time yesterday and still can't understand it. Dub me dumb, it happens sometimes!

Good morning everyone. I've now caught another round of Iridocyclitis on my left eye Sitting inside with sunglasses and try to stay away from books and the computer/tv now. At least I won't have to stress with the exam ( and work) now,and can take it in August instead Sotd is Hypnotic Poison. Hope you all have a nice day!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, TDM61!!!



Lemming some of you smart and elegant parfumista/os from yesterday in Chanel 31 Rue Cambon. With notes like this, I should've known I'd fall in love with this one.

31 Rue Cambon notes include: Gentle aldehydes, bergamot, black pepper, patchouli, cistus labdanum and iris.

Cuba Jungle Zebra

notes: cardamom and nutmeg accords, blended with water lily and dazzling spices

Sadly, no spices. But, it does smell just like generic mid range UK shampoo, in that pleasant, clean, inoffensive way! I quite like generic shampoo smell, but it's especially interesting how it subtley changes from country to country and from pricepoint to pricepoint.

Sorry you have eye ouchies, ineespenes!

Happy Birthday tdm61!

Good morning! I'm starting off the day testing L'Artisan's Mure et Musc Extreme.

Inees, I hope you feel better soon.

Joining the Guerlainers with Attrape-Coeur

Best to all!

Happy birthday to TDM1961 and get better soon Ineespenes!

Continuing my sampling of the Juliette has a Gun scents. Today I'm in Lady Vengeance. A prickly rose who gives the finger to the establishment. Agent Provocateur's illegitimate love child. With a huge pink bow in her spiky hair. Love this stuff.

Chanel - Bois des Iles

Sandalwood creates the illusion of gingerbread here in this sensuous creation.
Cool iris and coriander bring clever contrast.
I think of Red Riding Hood with her basket of goodies to deliver to Grandmother's house.

Notes of sandalwood, vetiver, tonka bean, vanilla, ylang ylang, iris,
coriander, rose, jasmine and aldehydes.

Iris Poudre, for me, today.
post #28 of 70
Good morning, all!

Today I'm in Eau d'Italie. I don't get any of the famous "cement" accord -- when it first goes on I'm anosmic to the opening, and then I can't identify any specific notes. It just smells very rich, sort of masculine, and slightly sweet. Very, very yummy; I kind of want to make out with my wrist.

Feeling that vetiver feeling coming on.
Wearing Etat Libre D’Orange Fat Electrician
ELDO did a nice job with this, I like it quite a bit as a nice vetiver alternative.
Have a Traipsing Tuesday everyone.

Just in case anyone's wondering, it really isn't my birthday, just a few BNers have taken me up on the celebrating it every day challenge! LOLS (oh and I'm in Sycomore again today)...
and a real HB to tdem61!
post #36 of 70
Happy Birthday, tdem61!

I'm wearing L'Artisan Fleur d'Oranger again today. My mom is starting to feel like her old self and has started wearing her (very few) perfumes again. I took over a 5 ml roll-on of my FdO yesterday and was gratified at seeing her pleasure when she applied it and sniffed.

Happy Birthday, tdem61! Have a fabulous day! And happy 'birthmonths', actiasluna.

Just the lightest misting of TF Black Violet, suitable for this cool and foggy, coastal California day.

Happiest of birthdays to tdem 1961! Hope you have a great day!

My it's been a long time since I've posted. I took a hiatus from my fragrance passion, as I've been concentrating on making some long needed changes in my life. I didn't expect to completely withdraw from Basenotes, but somehow that's what happened. I hope everyone here has been well!

Today I woke up and had a craving for Hermes Caleche, which I haven't worn for at least a year. It's gorgeous smelling on this cool, dry, sunny Spring day. Creamiest citrus, floral, and mossy-wood scent. Ahhhhh, fragrance...

Happy Birthday tdem61!

SOTD: Dior Eau Svelte

For a while, I wore this one every single day (maybe late 90's? early 00's?). Whatever. It's great in the warmth and humidity...now d/c'd but I found a bottle at one of the online discounters...

Hope everyone is having a great day!

Happy Birthday tdm61! And happy fake birthday actiasluna!

Today, in my ongoing quest to remedy my ignorance of masculine-marketed scents, I tried...

Kouros.


ACK. Woof! Arrrggggh. WHEEZE. ickyickyicky...
Seriously, when does the urine note fade?? It's been hours and I've been waiting it out... bravely...
post #43 of 70
Today I'm wearing the last of my sample of Nanadebary Green. Sigh. I love this stuff, but a full bottle is not in my immediate future ($$).

Everyone smells fabulous!!! And Thalia- that photo...OOOOOHHHHH.

I also smelled like a fabulous orange-y confection for about 3 hours in Cacharel Liberte Terrible longevity.
Switched to Les Nuits Hadrien, as I found a 1 ml sample in my bag. Should get me through until tonight.

Happy Birthday dear Terry!!!

Wearing Chanel, Eau Premier all day long.

SOTD was Amouage Dia for me.
post #53 of 70
SoTA Citizen Queen from a sample sent by a generous basenoter... Hmm... it certainly has a floral forward queenly start! (already powdery aldehydes, iris, and hints of the leather to come.) No fading wallflower this! The beginning is a little strong for my tastes but we shall see.

I'm wearing Cuir Améthyste today.


Happy birthday, Terry!

Pomander, we thoroughly understand these waxing and wanings. Welcome back with open arms.

30Roses, it's good to hear Mom is healing from all the dramatic changes. Hope you're feeling increasingly great, too.

Gave Leslie Blodgett Golden Light a second chance today. Meh.
post #59 of 70
Wearing 28 la Pausa today. It's great in this humidity and heat. Not sure I need a 200mL vat, though.

Enjoy the rest of the day, all!

Sounds like a plan hatching on some Exclusifs - divvying - up if you ask me!
