Good morning !.



Happy Birthday Haunani

Happy Birthday Kevin Guyer

Happy Birthday KarmaLee

Hope Mr Kiliwia enjoyed his day yesterday.

Ali, no crowing from me following the football. Our victory was hardly deserved and the manner in which it was achieved was a little embarrassing

SotD is Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille.




Off for coffee and a wander in the Autumn mist - back later

Happy Birthday to the lovely and most generous Huanani, and Karma Lee and Kevin Guyer!

(Sorry Jon finally got there. Should have had me lenses in!!)

Good morning Jon! What a lovely post. Thank You.

A really beautiful cold sunny morning here.

Treating myself to Onda Extrait, from a sample.

Have a lovely Sunday all.

No, I am sitting here and seeing lucasai, JR and Foustie logged on and thinking: Do I have to start a SotD thread? Thanks for starting JR.

Good morning...
Misty but, alas, not a bit cold here.
I'm softly treating myself to delicious Etro Heliotrope, whit just a drop of Farnesiana for comparison.

Happy birthday to Haunani, Kevin Guyer and KarmaLee, and a happy belated birthday to Kiliwia!


It's a gloriously sunny day in London and having spent yesterday gardenining, I'm going to take a break and test some samples, starting with Petale Noir by Agent Provocateur. I did try it a bit yesterday, but the Micallef Gardenia I was wearing was so dominant that it altered my senses.

Enjoy your Sunday, everyone!

Many happy returns to those celebrating.

Shhh still hiding from JON

SotD is my old friend vintage Choc de Cardin. A true citric, green chypre for this fresh blue skied day. Smell of happy holidays and being in love. Green, astringent, citric sour and salty oakmoss. Glorious! I now have about 10 mls to eek out so a full generous wearing is a total luxury

My old friend too, Yves Rocher 8e Jour.

Happy Birthday to our Haunani (come on out and play, willya?), KarmaLee (speedy recovery for you dear, are you still at John Hopkins'?) and KevinG.

Somehow I think it was Auntie Knit's Birthday yesterday, but I am not too sure. She is in Las Vegas this week, I hope. JR, you know how to check it, or dontcha?

LM, no K.'s birthday is yet to come this month.

Wow what a party in here today! Happy birthday to Haunani, KarmaLee, and Kevin!

In Piguet's Visa today which causes me sniff my arm constantly, followed by happy sighs. Have been lemming this since cacio's fruity pass; think I have confirmed with a decant that it's time to give in and purchase. This perfume has knocked me into submission!

Good morning everyone -

I suppose I shouldn't be too surprised, but I'm twins with Wolfie in 8e Jour ...I actually woke up thinking about it so the choice was obvious, but I think that's a slightly uncanny, though perfectly delightful, coincidence.

Y'all have a great day!





Happy Birthday wishes to Haunani, KarmaLee and KevinG!

Feel like something special today, going with Guerlain Apres l'Ondee.

Having a rare Serge Lutens craving this a.m., and I almost literally had to wring glass to get a smidge of Fille en Aiguilles onto my left wrist.

If/when our birthday kids do show up, I'll add a scoop of ice cream to their cake. Children, where are you?

SotD: Ambre Precieux
SotE: 1725 Casanova, which nobody wanted to buy from me. Maybe it was right so as I do enjoy my wearing. One can never have enough lavender - one of my main wardrobe themes.

Wearing Le Mimosa by Annick Goutal, from a sample. Well, this smells exactly like the beautiful yelowish-green and pink mimosa flowers that hang from the majestic mimosa tree, on the walk down to beach in the summer. There's a trace of musk, I guess to ground the fragrance, but aside from that, it's a solaflore. So,while lovely and accurate, I've grown a bit bored with it after an hour. Time to move on the the next SoTD!

Enjoy your SoT Day everyone.

Wishing a happy day to the birthdaypersons and everyone else too!

She-wolf today, LOL. There is something about the *dirty musk* that smell bent uses that I do like a lot. It's kind of addictive smelling. I have the Horny Little Devil and this one, they are like brother and sister. Oils not sprays.

Chantilly again...I'm boring - on a jag with it.

It has turned chilly and rainy here. Summer was still here yesterday, but today it finally feels autumnal. Jon's music suits the day. I have some gingerbread baking in the oven...it smells delish.

Happy Birthday to Haunani, KarmaLee, and Kevin Guyer!

Hey y'all -

I'm now in the heady and super-sultry pairing of Kiehl's Original Musk oil and vintage Obsession ...it's really not as obnoxious as it sounds.

Happy Birthday to Kevin, Haunani and KarmaLee!

I needed something a bit cozy today as it is raw and drizzly, so I'm wearing Jour de Fête.

Often when I'm passing by the bakery at ShopRite (supermarket) I smell a scent in the air very like Jour de Fête. I think they must be using some sort of fragrance diffusion system to scent the air with an almondy smell to induce people to buy pastries.

Eau de Lalique, sprayed from my Mom's bottle as I stayed home this weekend!!! (Just moved away for grad school this fall.)

That is a good gingerbread if I do say so myself. I had mine with a hot apple cider. Gingerbread and hot toddies for everyone...

Still floating around in clouds of Chantilly. If I ever tire of this I will never want to be near it again, but for now nothing suits me half as well. It's just part of me now, the spirit of my psyche in scent form.

Hypnotic Poison. which goes really well with gingerbread and all the birthdays if I do say so myself.

I'm testing Bond Manhattan. Hmmmm ... not really like-at-first-sniff for me, but it is interesting with a lot of stuff going on. I need to give this a second (or even third) wearing to decide for sure.

Sending happy birthday wishes to Kevin Guyer, Haunani. and KarmaLee.
