Good morning everyone!

It's my 25th birthday so I'm wearing something that's been on my mind quite a lot lately and I'm running out of my sample soon.

I got a CameCube as an early present and and I've been playing The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker for a while already. The intro music is lovely.

Afternoon All,

Great shots, Jon. Ely is certainly a lovely corner of the world.
Happy Birthday, Androidi ! Many fragrant returns to you.

Twinned with G. today. Unfortunately it's long gone, but a wonderful citrus, the current is not good to my nose. A spritz of Iris Pallida on one wrist - a rather disappointing iris with a bland base verging to the sweet.
Sitting close to the house wall with my winter coat on enjoying the sunrays... it's (Tanna) coffee time soon
Best to all - thinking of Wolfie and sweet Larimar sends a sweet kiss to sweet Quarry

Good morning, everyone -

It's still a bit chilly, but the sun is shining brightly and it's a gorgeous day, so I'm anticipating the arrival of spring in a pretty cloud of Diorissimo, vintage-60s edt. Y'all have a great day!




Happy Birthday androidi - enjoy your special day!

Lots of data base errors lately, a bit frustrating.

Is Mimi supposed to come back anytime soon?

Im wearing some vintage Chantilly parfum on this chilly Sunday. The sun keeps trying to come out but seems to be fighting a losing battle.

Happy Birthday, Androidi! Here are some cream puff swans (inspired by Jon's photos) for your birthday

freesia, lilac, peony, blond woods, patchouli, frankincense, styrax, suede,

Her flight back from Malaysia is booked, and she is scheduled to arrive home on April 2nd. She should hopefully be returning to BN very soon after



SotE - Bond No 9 Washington Square.






BTW, any of the UK contingent got snowdrops yet ? - they are all over the place here (not my photo but you get the general idea).

Te delle Isole (Island Tea?) from Abdes Salaam Attar's 'Scents of the Soul' Collection.

This is my introduction to his all-natural perfumes at www.profumo.it

I'm not normally drawn to spice-centric scents, but this has a lovely, gentle and warm clove cake opening which evolves into cedar chest that once held that spice.

Happy birthday androidi!

I'm looking forward to Mimi's return..feels like forever sicne she's been here.

Today I'm wearing JM Fresh Mint Leaf.

I's love to find a fragrance that smells like Suave's Rosemary & Mint shampoo-- anyone know of one? I see one on Etsy but that person uses vanilla also, which I do not want.

Hmmm...now I see a fragrance oil that is rosemary mint...maybe I'll come up with something myself, even. Rosemary essential oil, peppermint, a bit of grain alcohol...

Jon, thanks for the news about Mimi, l've been wondering about her too. lt seems like an exceptionally long trip this time.

And yes, l have been seeing snowdrops around here for about a month now.

Spraying on some more Champaca for this evening, as l've enjoyed it so much today.

Back to work tomorrow , but will be off out for a couple more beers this evening .

I also was thinking about Mimi, wondering where she is. It has been a long time since we've seen her here. I wonder why she can't log in from wherever she is?

I smell of dog grooming session. I need a nice, warm shower before dinner with my Crabtree & Evelyn Iris soap. There is only one cake left. I've enjoyed that soap. It is so soothing to me.

Been racking my brain all weekend trying to come up with concepts for an ad campaign for a new commercial water heater. Yeah, it's hard to find the sexy. However, if you're in the market for the lowest total-cost hot water unit with a 5-year guarantee, have I got exciting news for you!!!

Can't see your photos (don't know if this is a new BN issue or Kindle issue), but I'm sure they're marvelous, especially Jon's.

A second day in Hove Rue Royale. Simply smooth and peaceful.

I'm testing SL Tubereuse Criminelle today. I'm soooo lazy today ... I have not done one thing around the house. Oh well ...

Happy birthday, androidi!

Hmmmm. This started last week for me. I can see some pix (Jon's poppy field and Opium bottle), but not the ones people took personally (including my own, which I uploaded to Phobucket). Hmmm. Hmmm. Hmmm.

Hello, everyone!

Beautiful pictures, Jon!

Played racquetball with my hubby this morning in Halston EdC, and now I am in the Deep Night by Ghost.



My hubby found this picture on the internet, and I just had to share. For the fans of dogs (you are absolutely right, Evangeline!) and Harry Potter...

Inspired by and in honor of androidi's birthday, I'm joining her in Iris Ganache for the evening. ♥




Whitefluffy - I'm more a fan of dogs than of HP, but that sure is one cute and silly Dobby-doggie, lol!

I'm on my kindle and some of the pics can't be viewed. Others can. Don't know why. Wearing Infusion d'Iris tonight. B-belle doesn't like it.

Good night and sleep tight!
