Wow, I am tired...what a blast I had this week but I can't party like I used to anymore. Off work today, so I'll be spending the day at home until my afternoon massage. Lucky me. Starting off the day in:

Hermessence Santal Massoia by Hermes




Jon Rodgers - I loved the music, thanks for posting
Alicka61 - wow...that's some special juice, my favorite version of Opium - enjoy!

Hi all. Angel edt today.

Good morning everyone!

My daughter is home one more day before school resumes so I expect she will want to go somewhere and do something. I'm holding off on fragrance for now until we decide what we're doing.
post #23 of 51
Well I thought I was being fancy by spritzing with George Sand today until my 14 year old son said: Mom, can you promise to never wear that perfume again? You smell like my friend's mother, and I want you to smell like you.
So I asked him what he wanted me to wear and he said anything else except for that one.
Sorry, George.

What to do now?
post #24 of 51
We have been invited next door by our new neighbours
(well actually we're the new ones, but you know what I mean!)
so I shall refresh the Escale a Portofino I applied earlier on.
This is such a classy, happy scent by Dior - love it!!

Thanks Jon for your kind sentiment, but I'm on my iPad only today and there is an issue (not visible) with these embedded links (not an apple problem I assume, but rather a BN thing... probably pointless to report it?). I'll check back tomorrow or so, thanks again, Jon!
I wore Tabac Blond to the stables today. I think I haven't told you guys that I started horseback riding in October... oh well, you don't have to know everything. Now a hot bath and it feels like more Tabac Blond afterwards (including the smoke later on). Have a great day all!
post #29 of 51
Vintage Shalimar bath oil. I wear it as parfum sometimes.

Larimar, glad to know about your horseback riding! I haven't done it in years but nothing else in life ever gave me the happiness that riding does. Maybe that's why I am enjoying Cuir de Russie so much. It reminds me of beautiful sweaty horses.

Yohji Homme by Yohji Yamamoto

post #31 of 51
Blackberry & Vanilla Musk from Trish McEvoy. I've decided to abandon using the headline name on the bottle, "Sexy 9," for its inaccurate connotation.

Have a dandy day.

Good Evening,

Changed to a more familiar Chanel: Bois des Îles.

Ride like the wind, Larimar!

Best to everyone.

Citizen Queen for me today. Love it!

Good afternoon. Mure et Musc Extreme over a mango body butter from body shop.

Quarry, if the Trish McEvoy is anything like the MeME, (ooh, I like that abbreviation) would have to agree on non-sexy, this is what I think of as good office perfume. Professional and clear-headed. Not that it isn't Attractive, it smells great and I love it. But it's not sexy like dancing or sex or a night out or high heels, it's more restrained and everyday. It is what I would (will! will!) wear to a job interview, applied lightly, to keep clear head and confidence.

A little test of 1889 Moulin Rouge from a sample. Reminds me of Lipstick Rose, at least at start.
post #36 of 51
Everyone smells so good in here!

Kewart, I love Dior Escale a Portofino, too. It truly is happy & classy at the same time.

I went to the gym today and had a really for real workout, but I haven't chosen a SotD yet (I mean SotA!). I may take a cue from Quarry and Robin and wear my sample of L'Artisan's Mure et Musc. I really do like it. I just sampled it for the first time the other day. I am daydreaming about buying a bottle, but will have to wait. I just wrote the check for our credit card bill today. And next month's is going to be a whopper, too. It's going to be a quiet next few months around here. Which is fine, too.

Scentless so far, but contemplating Aromatics Elixir Perfumer's Reserve post-shower. Take care, fragrant dollies!

Nez a Nez Bouche Baie from the NOLA meet-up

Y'all smell terrific!
post #39 of 51
Back in Tromsø and the darkness for a few days now...Didn't make it for breakfast until the time was around...two! Afterwards me and my sisters took a long walk to my dad's where we had dinner. Sotd is Narciso Rodriguez FH edt. It's always best to go on the softer side with my dad when it comes to scent. It's been a while since I last wore it, so I rather enjoyed it Hope you all have a great day!

I'm in K de Krizia for the rest of the day. Have a good evening, everyone!

That's probably the better decision, but for a while there I thought maybe you decided to keep the scent and lose the boy!

Happy New Year, BNers! I'm testing the By Kilian Arabian Nights trio today. Impressions:

Pure Oud: Nope, can't do. Smells like an army of bandaids.
Incense Oud: Slightly sweet, mysterious, beautiful! And not very oud-y. ♥
Rose Oud: Dark, fruity rose oud. I prefer Micallef Rose Oud and C&S Dark Rose.
Bottom Line: I'm not an oud girl.

Aromatic's Elixir Perfumer's Reserve by Clinique



Lessee and I were discussing this one via PM tonight so I decided to make it my SOTE.


Rtamara - sounds like your son's opinion of fragrances is pretty strong...wonder who he got that from??
GelbeDomino - I have always wanted to smell/use Shalimar bath oil...is it vintage/disco'd or does Guerlain still make it?
Quarry - Sexy No. 6 just sounds silly

New Comme des Garcons Eau de Parfum, from a sample
post #47 of 51
I'm testing JM Pomegranate Noir today. I had marked this in my "to-test" wardrobe, but not really sure why. Maybe the plum note? I'm surprised at how spicy this is! Not that I'm an expert on Jo Malone, but this is quite spicy for her, no? But even with the spiciness, there is a clean, fresh feeling running throughout. Unusual for spice and clean to play so well together.

Hugs to all ...

Jacques Bogart Eau Fresh tonight

I can't believe what I am going to write for Q. and Mike P: How about Sexy No.69? (ducks and covers)

H., nice to see you, here and on another "hooked" thread. Are you home in CA or home in HI?

Patricia de Nicolai Vanille Tonka this evening. Mr.T is fully recovered (I gave him a test from a Women's Magazine about tummy aches, his responses led us both to believe he is having PMS of all things).

Good evening, ladies and gents!!!
I just came back from work, booo!!!!!!
Today I wore Philtre d'Amour. I think I over did it, somehow I think I have to use more when it is splash. The office was basically empty, the only problem was that I found myself in a car with four co-workers at lunch time. I think we were the only ones in the building who did not take the day off.
