SOTD Wednesday 3rd October, 2012

Wake up my dears!

Having a day off because I have a
virus-type illness.

Felt so sick yesterday that perfume was the last
thing on my mind! A bit better today so I will apply
something with a bit of a citrus kick - Dior Escale
a Portofino.

Morning All,

Get well soon, kewart ! There seem to be so many bugs going around at the moment. Change in seasons, I guess.

Ungaro II is my SotD.

Best to all.

Good ''morning'' :-)
Norway is very wet and windy today, and daylight never seems to appear. Needed something warm and spicy, so I chose Lancôme's Magie noire.

Have a beautiful day all, and get well soon, kewart!

Kewart, you have my sympathy. I've also had a stubborn virus hanging over me for a while. Confirmed as nothing serious but it has laid me dreadfully low at times. Hope you continue to improve.


SotD is Tom Ford Neroli Portofino.

Morning ladies,

I hope you feel better so Kewart.

I'm not actually going to wear a SOTD today because, the wonderful Foustie has sent me loads of samples. So I will be testing them all day. I will be smelling VERY fragrant today though lol.

I hope everyone has a good day today x

I'm hoping the forecast for Saturday will turn drier; hubby wants to go to a local agricultural fair and that is the afternoon they do the horse pull competition, which he loves watching.

I'm wearing Yardley English Rose today.

Oh Kewart, honey, feel better soon!

No scent yet, still very early here. Just got the girl off to school. Fingers crossed that things are improving.

After shower, it's my intention to wear L'Artisan Passage d'Enfer.

Aww, Kewart and Jon, and anyone else hampered, do take care. Let Lilybelle be your role model.

I'm going to bed early tonight, having taken an allergy pill which will knock me out in a while, but in the meantime I have my laptop, my dog, the TV clicker, and a big pile of books. If I didn't feel like Sneezy, I'd be perfectly content with this set up. Nightie night!

Last night I sprayed Jicky on the back of my hands at bedtime, while JM Dark Amber and Ginger Lily lingered on my wrists. In the early-morning hours I stirred and sensed their harmonious play. So delghtful. I'd never intentionally layered Jicky (except with English lavender dusting powder) because, well, why would you even think of such heresy? -- but having this week encountered how nicely Jicky interplays with 24 Faubourg and DA&GL, I'm curious where this might lead.

Jicky solo ... for now.

fragranceman88, I too am working—no, sniffing—my way through samples sent by several lovely basenote-ists, while listening to some CDs I need to catch up on, notably Tchaikovsky's enchanting Serenade for Strings.

It was excruciatingly hot yesterday. This summer was rather foggy, and we get an 28º day in autumn. The forecast suggests today will be a bright day as well.

Am in Diptyque Philosycos. Come to think of it, I need more 'summery' scents. Most of my scents are too rich/sweet/cloying for hot days.

Quarry...♥

Feel better, Kewart and Jon!

Congratulations to Jujy!

I'm wearing Kate Moss Kate today...



It has a tea stained rosey/soft musk & patchouli vibe. Not so much a black rose, to my nose, as one like this...



Well...it's all in my own head here. Sending you all my love. xo

Good afternoon.
Still a bit too warm for my tastes, here, but the light is superbly smooth and the air is filled with Osmanthus scent.
Avignon, for me today.

Iodine, you are not the only one longing for cooler weather. It is around 88 F here today and humid. Blegh.

I had a shower and have switched to Chanel No. 22 edt as sotd. It is my favorite Chanel: all sweetness and cloudlike fluffiness. It makes me feel like this...

Good Evening,

I have the privilege of being a house twin with Lilibelle tonight: No.19 EdP.

Best to all.

Another flying hello to my fragrant family.

Hugs and healing vibes to Kewart and Jon xxx

SotD was A La Nuit again.

To celebrate the arrival of more of my weekend spree today I have Confetto on my right hand and Bois de Violette on my left. Not really a compatible combo but individually lovely

Hello!
I missed you all, I hope you are fine!
(Kewart & Jon, feel better soon!)

I haven't posted for a while, waiting for things to improve here, but as it goes I may never post again!...
(At least we are never bored in Greece!)

I was wearing
31 Rue Cambon today,
it never disappoints me.
