Petra, I was introduced to D'Iparie this past summer by another BNer and I totally fell for it. It is my discovery of 2010, together with Lagerfeld's Kapsules. Strange, normally I do not like anything as of recent, but those just stood out. Oh yeah, and Guerlain Tokyo did, in an expensive waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay.

Welcome, La Borgia! Another Santa Barbara-ite! Nice to see you here.
Best wishes to RHM...

Serge Lutens Daim Blond. Perfect for this sunny autumn day.

Hi all... I started the day in Habanita (probably as a result of the threads on the forums)... and am reveling in it still. I think I'll change for the evening though...what to put on? Maybe a sample (from a generous basenoter.) Which one? With all the talk about Beige, maybe that one. Or... (oh darn I can NOT make up my mind.)

Sans water in the house this afternoon, due to a water line break that was pumping out 3 gal./minute. I couldn't see wasting 4320 gallons (24 hours') worth of perfectly good drinking water just so I can have a shower in the morning... so I guess the washcloth, the basin, and I are going to be my somewhat anachronistic routine in the morning. And answer me this: Why is it that when you have the water turned off, the first thing you need to do is use the toilet? Is this TMI?

EDIT: Welcome la Borgia! You'll love it at Basenotes.

And I decided to give my somewhat neglected bottle of Aramis 900 a go for the afternoon. Nothing like an elegant rosy, herbal, woody, spicy concoction to keep me happy on a nearly-warm autumn afternoon!

Why thank you! I have been a closeted lurker for a couple of years but finally worked up the courage to register. It is a lonely world when one best friend wears Kai and only Kai (yawn), another claims to be allergic and I'm pretty sure Laura wears Old Spice.
I dare not speak too much about my little obsession with them or anyone else I know, but I do leave little samples in their cars from time to time. It's lonely being a self-taught fanatic.

Hello, Therese! We haven't seen you for a while. I hope all is well with you.

Welcome, La Borgia! Your signature line is hilarious. :-)

RHM, thinking of you today.

My SotD is Perfumerie Generale Iris Taizo (also known as Iris Oriental, I think). I just love it!

Welcome La Borgia - thanks for joining us!

I'm in JHAG's gorgeous Midnight Oud for the rest of the day. Y'all have a nice evening!

Ooh Evangeline...I'm certainly lemming your SoTE! (can't pull the trigger on that one yet, < pun fully intended > with all the plumbing bills coming in. Sigh.)

Welcome, La Borgia.
Thanks for calling attention to La Borgia signature line, Haunani. It's hysterical!
I can tell, we're gonna love having you, La Borgia, and you're going to love being had.

RedHotMama, how are you doing? Please let us know, we were all keeping our fingers (and toes) crossed.

My SOTD is Tam Dao from a sample. The nice SAs at Barney's gave me a sample and a couple of samples of the shower gel.
I did not realize how strong this is and it has lasted over 10 hours. Maybe I just oversprayed, or this is the longest lasting Dyptique ever.

RHM, hugs! I can't believe you're still having issues with those stones! Or maybe they're new ones? I don't check in here as often as I ought to anymore.

Welcome, La Borgia!

Tabac Blond is my sotd. I've gone through almost half my bottle now. It really would be convenient if Caron went all Chanel and I could get an Exclusif-size TB.

I'm finally getting around to reading the thread. Have been in roses all day-- first tried Evelyn Rose edp at C&E store (while chatting with the SAs and a customer about our favorite roses and Basenotes), then wore Une Rose in a fragrance locket for the evening.

RHM, a bit late for well wishes, but I hope you feel better tomorrow-- er, today-- it's already past midnight here.
