Most worn in September and Third Quarter

post #1 of 28

Thread Starter 
Another month and quarter have come to an end, so it's time for stats, fellow nerdettes and nerds!

Here are mine:

September
5\tDivin Enfant, Fumerie Turque
4\tSantal Noble
3\tBorneo 1834, Fille en Aiguilles, Like This
2\tAntihéros, Encens et Lavande, Five OClock au Gingembre, Noël au Balcon, Poivre Piquant, Serge Noire, Vétiver Oriental

Mostly a mixture of ELd'O (LT and NaB were both samples I tested) and Serge Lutens.

3rd Quarter
10\tEncens et Lavande
8\tAntihéros
5\tDivin Enfant
4\tDzing!, Gomma, Rose Poivrée, Santal Noble

Again Encens et Lavande in the lead, but my alternative "after Saturday sauna lavender" Antihéros came second. Leather scents always come out in the late summer and early autumn, this year was no exception.

What did you wear?

That's a looong list and "most worn" in my case means "worn twice". So here you go (my September list):
KM Ume (2)
Lily & Spice (2)
OJ Orris Noir (2)
Etro Dianthus (1)
PdN Vanille-Tonka (1)
Ormonde Woman (1)
Chopard Maddness (1)
Sublime (1)
Terracotta Voile d'Ete (1)
Theorema (1)
M. Micallef Gaiac (1)
1920 Extreme (1)
Arpege (1)
SL Clair de Musc (1)
Brin de Reglisse (1)

Interesting that out of 17 wears 7 were from my bottles, 7 from decants and minis and 3 were samples. My bottles will last for aaaages...

September tallies: Amber Absolute (3), Avignon (3), Divin' Enfant (2), Daim Blond (2), Fumerie Turque (2), Feminite du Bois (2), Bois de Violette (2), Dzongkha (2), Sarrasins, Chergui, Nombril Immense, Arabie, Mandarine Mandarin, Un Bois Vanille, Chene, Muscs Koublai Khan, and Bois et Fruits.

3Q tallies: Bois de Violette (5), Divin' Enfant (4), Chergui (3), Fumerie Turque (3), Daim Blond (3), Sarrasins (3), Amber Absolute (3), Avignon (3), Chene (3), Musc Ravageur (2), Un Bois Vanille (2), A la Nuit (2), Clair de Musc (2), Cuir Mauresque (2), Nombril Immense (2), Fleurs d'Oranger (2), Arabie (2), Mandarine Mandarin (2), Feminite du Bois (2), Badgley Mischka (2), Dzongkha (2), Borneo 1834 (1), Carnal Flower (1), Black Orchid Voile de Fleur (1), Original Santal (1), Euphoria (1), Narciso Rodriguez for Her (1), Bois Oriental (1), Purple Patchouli (1), Royal Delight (1), White Patchouli (1), Alien (1), Prada (Original) (1), Ouarzazate (1), Muscs Koublai Khan (1), Bois et Fruits (1)

Since I didn't start doing SotD until July, these lists should have been pretty straightforward -- except that I'm still doing a lot of sampling, so they are pretty long.

Of the 3Q list, 10 are from bottles, 7 are from decants, and the rest (19) are from samples.

Shocker: it's dominated by Serge (18).

Tigrushka, based on your lists and wardrobe, we may be scent sisters! I'm not sure I've seen anyone else who wears Divin' Enfant as much as I do.

Divin' Enfant wasn't an instant hit with me but I started to get occasional cravings for it and whenever I wear it, I get stuck for days!

I didn't keep stats, but September was about two things for me:
Woods - Bois des Iles, Femenite du bois, cadjmere, AL #23 all got regular use
Amber - ambra del nepal, alahine, ambre fetiche were some that I wore mult. times

Oh, and I also sampled alot this month.

For the quarter, I would throw in some of my regulars in hot weather:
#5 Eau Premiere
Magnolia Romana by Eau d'Italie
Fleur d'Iris by MPG

September saw a return to Mitsouko (3x) and Nanadebary Green (3x)
and a reacquaintance with 24 Faubourg (3x).

As was the case in August, many evenings found me settling down with a spray of Jo Malone Dark Amber & Ginger Lily on my hands.

I have only been doing my "statistics" for five weeks, and this is what I summoned up for that period:
6x Soir de Lune and 5x Passion AG
- Both "rediscoveries" that I haven't really used for a year or so.
3x Tabac Blond, PG Intrigant Patchouli
- The PG I used a decant of, its now on my want list for sure.
Chypres, flowers, honey and spices - no surprises - all very helpful with early autumn chill & grey skies.
More than a third of my fragrances came from small/larger decants or samples.

As always, thanks to Tigrushka for this exercise. I notice that Furriner and Bonsai both list so many of my favorites!

Caldey Island Lavender 3x (special thanks to BrothaG for the lovely large sample!)
Caron Pour Homme 3x
Lutens Gris Clair 3x
Goutal Vetiver 2x
Parfumerie Generale Bois Blond 2x

Multiple wearings for the third quarter included

L'Artisan Cote d'Amour 4x
Caldey Island Lavender 3x
Caron Pour Homme 3x
Lutens Gris Clair 3x
L'Artisan Nuit de Tubereuse 3x
L'Artisan L'Eau de Jatamansi 3x
D'Orsay Tilleul 3x (special thanks to Twolf for introducing this to me!)
Pacifica Malibu Lemon Blossom 3x
Eau d'Italie Magnolia Romana 2x
Goutal Vetiver 2x
Parfumerie Generale Bois Blond 2x
Hermes Vanille Galante 2x
Guerlain Terracotta Voile d'Ete 2x

No real third quarter pattern, except that it features some of my hot weather favorites!
