Good morning,
I was in the mood to be in a L'Heure Bleue cloud this morning. I am wearing way too much to be able to leave my premises for now, but, holy cow, this is so beautiful. It's the stuff angels wear and dreams are made of.
I never thought I could nearly finish a bottle of the potent vintage EdP in what is a bit more than two years now. That one I was smart enough to build up a decent back-up stock...
Sunny again, not summery but getting warm today. Time for a late breakfast... where's the nespresso machine??!!!

- from a sample. i know a lot of reviewers disagree with the 'rotten fruit' note/vibe but i like it. still, not enough to justify a full bottle (or the tag price). wishing all a quiet, relaxed saturday.

Good morning from a cold and wet UK.

I've been loving Coco Mademoiselle, especially the edp, for weeks now. I think I'll go with that today too, to brighten up the day.

Best to all.

Ah, my friend, you know me so well. The smell of Kazaar and your Jicky Parfum... divine!

Good morning fumees!

Larimar and I both started SotD thread for today, but this one is more popular than mine, so I'll just jump in.

I picked Histoires de Parfums 1725 Casanova as my scent for this Saturday!


Sending warm wishes of happy weekend to every one of you

Oh my word how fragrant you all are!

After yesterday's nakedness I'm wearing possibly the most ornate and loud sillage combo I could think of.

Layers of 80s vintage Poison EDT from the atomizer bottle with layers of SL MKK and boy are those layers delicious. The MKK softens the Poison and the Poison gives tremendous radiance to the MKK. If anyone else has these two in their wardrobe I strongly recommend giving them a go. Truly wonderful

Off to the supermarket now for the weekly shop and fully expect a riot

Smelling good, Danny! My husband wears Pulp and we don't smell any rotting fruit-- fruit, yes, but no rot.

No scent as yet. I may pull out one of my neglected fragrances later. Planning to spend the day clearing out more stuff to haul over to Goodwill.

Hello good smelling friends! Hope everyone enjoys the weekend!

Wishing Lilybelle safe travels. A girl and her dog on the road- what fun!

All best wishes to the tdems. Hugs to each of you. Glad you're back!

Yardley Iris for me today- helping my SIL with her garage sale- supposed to get up around 85 degrees today. Yucks! Love the warmth, just not so hot when there's work to do!

Got a sample of La Nuit De L'Homme yesterday, tried it then and wearing it today, too. Should be marketed as unisex, it certainly works for me. Lots of graduations this weekend, hope everyone traveling has a safe trip.

Off to friends for dinner, drinks and discussions (always lively ones) in a cloud of Jicky EdP. By the time I get there (it's almost an hour's drive) ThenJicky will have settled down to a socially acceptable level. Ah yes, they have a local wild boar source and i know this going to be on the menu somehow... yum yum

Good afternoon/evening all Today has been really busy. The boyfriend and I are having a "moving in party" today. The boyfriend has been busy making Indian vegan food all day, and I've been running around tidying up. Looking forward to this Sotd is Coco edp. Hope all is well with all of you.

Everyone smells delicious.

I woke up and headed straight for the gym where I had a fantastic and very intense workout in a cloud of Scent Two: Laurel and now I'm having a late brunch with Ray before I come back & work in the lawn (I need to weed & feed our huge lawn and cut back the trees along the side of the house) so I am properly doused in...

Vetiver Soap + Vetiver Vintage Eau de Toilette by Guerlain



I even dabbed a bit of vintage After Shave Balm in my chest hair...so I really am totally covered in the scent. Somehow the vintage juice, if sprayed away from my face, is softer, less tobacco-strident and really gives off a perfectly modulated sense of root/salt/green. IMO perfect for hacking away at branches and grass.

Good Evening,

Way to go, Mike !
Evangeline - it's a hard life, eh ?

Everyone does indeed smell wonderful today (as every day).

Revisiting Annick Goutal's Ambre Fétiche tonight, from a sample.

Take care, all.

Good afternoon, everyone. You all smell great. :-)

I had a wonderful field trip with 150 students to an adjudicated music festival. The weather was utterly perfect (72F, no humidity and nary a cloud in the sky), we came home with as many kids as we left with, and best of all, my three choruses swept all the first place trophies! I am one proud teacher.

/brag

I'm wearing one of my all-time faves, Castelbajac. I have a supply of this hoarded, but I am nearing the end of my current bottle and I get nervous every time I look at it. Rotten discontinuations.....grrrrr.

Wishing all a restful Saturday.

Loved it so much I'm going back for more. Vintage Poison EDT layered with Lutens Muscs Khoublai Khan for dinner at the local curry house.

Still amazed how delicious this melange is

I'm in Un Jardin Sur Le Nil- topped off with the matching lotion from a lovely BNer (CRose)

thanks 30 roses,your husband has good taste!! i found out though what bothers me about it (not a lot but still), it's the blackcurrant/blackberry note! there are some lipsticks and even make up (according to my wife) that have these notes and as she brought this to my attention, i realized, bingo! it has that lipstick/make up accord but also in a foodie kind of way (not gourmand, if that makes sense).

I kind of almost love posting late, because I get to see what everyone is doing with there day
I'm in Delrae Eau Illuminee today, after some unscented tennis this morning. This stuff is just intoxicating to me, and I love it to bits. Aromatic then softer, the subtle changes are enthralling to me.

I'm wearing Lavanilla Grapefruit Vanilla today. It's not in the directory ... yet. I just filled out the form to add it, my first time doing that! Anyway, it's sweet and simple but so sunshine-y too. I feel like a sunbeam is following me everywhere.

Happy Saturday, everyone!

Coco Mademoiselle EDP this dry and hot evening.
It's one of my 'Eat Your Hat ' scents . I never thought I'd ever wear it but now I do and I love it . It's so zingy delicious and quite perfumey , blowzy and happy .
I made beef stew in my trusty crock pot for the family and had my huge salad buffet for lunch so I'm happy .
