Hello perfumed world!
Amouage Gold Homme to fit into our far east Friday synchronizing theme. I know it's not the fathest east possible, but let it be...

Now off to a hairdresser to have my haircut done. I think I might go for a different cut this time.

Later, my room will change into a HOME&SPA resort - will be testing my new cosmetics formulas I developed this year.

Have a good day and thank God it's Friday!

Good morning Lucas, good morning world,

Well, Lucas, I am approaching 40, you'd better hurry come up with the ultimate elixir for eternal youth.

I ain't chicken, so I'm in Jicky again today.

It's Friday... much awaited this week and wine o'clock is here soon...

Best to all

I'm trying as hard as I might, but I guess the next few years will be a great development in cosmetics and their formulas.

And I like "I ain't chicken..." phrase. Have a good day friend!

Good morning! Still warm and steamy out there but not as oppressive as yesterday, thankfully. SOTD is sparkling, crisp Hermes Eau des Merveilles.

Wish you all a lovely Friday! xo

I am really hoping we get the heads up here Lucas. Do't leave it toooo long please. If you are looking for willing volunteers......

So Larimar, The Eau des Iles, oh the Eau des Iles. In the main I am not crazy about coffee notes in fragrance but this is fabulous. The coffee and dry wood actually comes off more like a tobacco accord on me, and here is the thing Larimar. It maked me think of Tabac Blond! It does! There is something, a suggestion of Tabac Blond here. Thank You for allowing me to try this as part of the MPG sample share. It is interesting as well as lovely. Masculine? I don't think so. The Iris Bleu Gris is masculine but that wouldn't stop me wearing it, (as you well know), but this one wears, not as a masculine on a woman but just as a beautiful fragrance on a woman. Androgynous in my view.

SOTD My beautiful new Iris, Ramon Monegal Impossible Iris. It arrived from ALZD yesterday so I just had to.

SOTE CDG Kyoto for the synch.

It will be wine o'clock for Miss F later too!! Off this weekend. Hurrah!

Of course dear Foustie! You'll hear it first! I promise!

I'm very happy for you about the new bottle of Impossible Iris by Ramon Monegal. I love the name of this fragrance and it surely smells divine! Enjoy!

I am in synch Dzongkha.

I have Eau des Iles, very dark and yes the coffee is more espresso than say A*Men, but the dark woods really take it up.

I'm in synch with the minutest amount of Mitsouko edt this morning. I'm saving my Dzongka wearing for SotA (first time!) . I don't know how long we are meant to be down for maintenance later, so wishing you all a good weekend now. Love to you all.

Shame on me- I am skipping the sync for the second week in a row. Doing a little local road-tripping with the Mr. and have only some Chanel decants with me. Chanel is so perfect for travel- always appropriate and I'm never not in the mood to wear them, it seems.

In fact, am not in a Far East mood at all today- I want my No.5 and think I would have wanted it even if I had access to all my choices right now. Just a No.5 day!

Hope we are only down shortly- if not, I'll miss you all! Have a great weekend, everyone!

I hope we are only down for a short while too. I will miss you fume freaks too!

SOTD is Love and Luck by Ed Hardy for women. I know, Ed Hardy, right? It's a good one though!

Good morning!

Joining in the sync this morning with Keiko Mecheri Ume, with notes of persimmon,
peach tree leaves, hints of bergamot and mandarin, Japanese wisteria, peonies
and camillia sasanka, South Sea Jasmine and Chinese osmanthus, Hinoki wood,
Cambodian mahogany and Mousse Poivree. (notes by Luckyscent)

Japanese wisteria


Have a great weekend!

Not in sync, in the garden with Oscar de la Renta Volupté, a fragrance I am appreciating more and more. It is particularly refreshing in the unrelenting heat/humidity here. While the atomizer is a little leaky, anyone who would like to try this floral green can pm me for a decant.

Synched in Shalimar Parfum Initial l'Eau and received unsolicited compliments. Lovely version of the Shalimar family. Less of the hissy hairspray of Shalimar Parfum Initial

Hey, kids! I'm back from my southern sojourn to see the cutest little grandnephew ever! If I knew how to post pics I would, but he is a cute little thing, trust me.

Not in synch because I am getting a mammogram today and am not supposed to be wearing fragrance for some reason. But I may synch up before the site goes down for maintenance. I hope everyone has been well and happy and I hope everyone has a great weekend!

Hey hey happy Friday. Today I am in Songes Annick Goutal. Beautiful white floral. Gifted to me by the lovely RingER. Thank you very much. This one is much drier than I expected, but very lush. Have a great weekend. Today I will be making Mojito's with homegrown Limes and mint.

Wooznib, you are most welcome for the Songes! The mojitos sound terrific.
I'm sampling Diptyque Philosykos for now, and going to a Chicago White Sox game tonight with my son (age 13). For that, it will be Diorella.

Enjoy your weekend, all!

Also sneaked in before the downtime wishing you all a great time!
Enjoy your wine, Jon!
I envy your fresh limes, wooznib and Mojitos are great. Just asking... what rum are you using since you won't be able to get the Havana Club from your 'evil neighbor'?
I'm in Jicky, vintage EdT. I would like a bathtub filled with it and refresh mzself frequebtly throughout the day.
Have a great weekend all and hopefully until tomorrow, folks!
