Either Rochas Man or a few sprays from my La Nuit de L'homme sample for me.

What will you decide to wear to kick off the start of Autumn?

Wow, didn't realize that autumn was already upon us. Fragrance-wise, it's not really autumn to me until I have to shave the ice off my windshield in the morning. I don't think I'm quite ready to break out the John Varvatos or Burberry London just yet. I'll probably wear some Bond no. 9 Great Jones, even though it's not my favorite.

Considering the weather hasn't dipped under 70 Fahrenheit this week, I don't consider it autumn for fragrances yet. I will most likely be sporting some YSL - L'homme or some AdG

Yea it's still 90 degrees daily where I am....Fall fragrances are still on hold for me. I start to break them out in 50 - 60 degree sweater weather. Can't wait.

Gonna be in the low 80's here tomorrow & since I didn't wear L'HOMME today, I'm gonna plan on wearing it tomorrow. That is until a bottle calls to me that I haven't worn in a while...always happens. It's still a fall type, breezy 80 degrees so I'm putting my Aquatics on the back shelf.

Yeah still too hot over here, so I'm going with something light. Can't wait to bring out London, Body Kouros and Pure Malt though. I love autumn and I'm ready for autumn weather. Bring on the cold.

Ice on windshield would be winter but hey whatever! I will be rocking Burberry London or maybe Chergui(once I buy it that is).

My first day of fall has been Michael Kors, although this year it will run neck and neck with Aedes de Venustas - my new fall favorite.

It is def. autumn where I am, and Chanel's Cuir de Russie is wonderful in cool, damp weather. It's pretty terrific in any weather, actually.

I've been in Tabac Blond extrait for nearly the whole week with cool mornings and warming up during the day. It's marvellous. It has taken me months and a couple of wearings to wear it and not being worn

My answer comes extremely belated, but I always envisioned celebrating the first day of autumn with a smooth, classic herbal-citrus frag like Eau Sauvage (which is precisely what I am wearing now), because though Eau Sauvage is more frequently perceived as a summer frags, to me, it has that certain something very suitable for damp, cool but not excessively cold, mildly sunny early autumn days

It's about 57 degrees in Seattle. Hmmm I think I'll go with Michael Kors too.

I applied Secretions Magnifique for a third full wearing today. I had to reapplicate in the early afternoon. Nobody complained, though.

I get used to the sharp opening and learn to appreciate the transition from metal/rot to a damp flowery smell to some tannic aroma reminiscent of uncooked chestnut. Doesn't fit chestnut common autumnal hopes and expectations very well? SM is the only bodily secretion exposed to become more prim with time, smellwise ... ;-)

It's going to be fairly warm here (Philadelphia) and not quite "autumn weather" as I think of it. That being said, my go-to fall scent will be L'Occitain Eau des baux....I will also be wearing John Varvartos Vintage when the weather cools

Since I have the day off and it's going to be a rainy autumn day, Fumerie Turque seems very appropriate to me. Maybe Chergui.
