Now we are talking Chanel: Bel Respiro for our Green S'n'S. To me, it was the least expected aroma out of the original 6 Les Exclusiffs -- with small synthetic flowers and the breeze of coumarin and galbanum. I would not call it particularly fresh but it evolves from dry to wet and back again and from interesting to soapy. It also has a promise of aromatic resins in the base -- not in your face, but very restrained and in good taste. Very good, particularly on a hot summer day like today seems to become.

Notes: Italian bergamot, bourbon geranium, coriander, patchouli, vetiver, amber, vanilla
Have I told you about the scent of jasmine? Have I spoken about the smell of the sea? The earth is scented. And I perfume myself to enhance what I am. That's why I can not wear a perfume that bothers me. Perfuming is an instinctive wisdom. And like all art, it requires some knowledge of yourself..."

Re: S o t D, Saturday, 3 July 2010
Am NOT a changeable, fickle Gemini/Snake for nothing. Nosireee.
For today's S'n'S decided against gentle Lily and am instead opting for....
...which gets all kinds mixed reactions here.
On this Doyenne d'un Age Certaine it starts off quite cedar-y but gets down and dirty in a fairly short while. I just LUV it.
So - in order to stay true to the spirit of the day - I'll prolly change up later. Much later. This stuff has tenacity!!

See the green Sniff 'n' Speak thread for babblings about Creed's lovely Aubepine Acacia, which DH and I are wearing stingyingly today.
My 61-year-old honey has recently taken up running, and this morning he went out for a 6.2-mile jog. Whadda guy.

Re: S o t D, Saturday, 3 July 2010
Hello everyone!
Summer's here at last! Without even thinking about it I grabbed Givenchy's luscious Ysatis, my most joyful, perfectly glorious sunny summer holiday scent, which as it happens is not very green so completely blows my participation in SnS...hmph! But I'm fabulously fragranced none-the-less and I just couldn't be happier in this gorgeous creation from Dominique Ropion. ♥
I realize I'm repeating myself (again) but as opulent and heady as this is, it actually reminds me of deep blue skies, palm trees and swimming pools (and of my very stylish and vivacious grandmother, who wore it so beautifully....and now also of the most excellent Le Grand Duc, naturally.) No wonder I adore it!
Happy Birthday To You, Furriner!
Y'all have a fantastic day!
Re: S o t D, Saturday, 3 July 2010
Good Morning All. In keeping with the green theme, I'll start out the day with L'OCCITANE 'The Vert (Green Tea). Have a good weekend everybody!!
Re: S o t D, Saturday, 3 July 2010
Well I am wearing the new Tuca Tuca from the Gorilla Perfumes by LUSH again.
Lovely violet fragrance.

I'm wearing Bond High Line for today's SnS Green day. There are not many green scents in my perfume cabinet. Highline has really won me over in a BIG way ... I'm adding this to my lust list.
We've been invited to a pool party and dinner this afternoon, but it's raining!I guess we will just go for the dinner then, DH has been smoking meats for hours and I baked a coconut cake.
Happy birthday, Furriner!

Happy Birthdaty Furriner!
I'm in Diabolo Rose today, marvelous rose + citrus + peppermint. I like this one so much more than the somewhat-similar Geranium Pour Monsieur (which I find rather unisex anyway). The mint lasts longer, for one thing.
And now I'm off to buy a pill shooter. Yes, folks, the challenge of pilling my cat goes on!
