Happy Monday everyone!

[RHM]

PdN's Odalisque edp again. I just love it.

For all of the iris lovers here, a photo I took at the Missouri Botanical Gardens recently.

I registered for summer courses at a local community college today.

Tomorrow is my turn to deliver meals-on-wheels, so I'll check on my neighbors make sure they are ok.

SOTD: APOM pour Homme by Maison Francis Kurkdjian.

[Alityke]

Scentless this morning, followed by another testing session as I went shopping for utilitarian homeware and needed something to get me through.

On my left hand EL Bronze Goddess Soleil, left wrist No19 Poudre, left arm Aqua Allegoria Lys Soleil. The Bronze Goddess Soleil and Lys Soleil are really similar! On my right hand No5 Eau Premiere and right wrist Coco Madamoiselle to explore the genre further sniffing the definitive fruity floral.

So basically I smell like a holidaying tart's boudoir ;D

Whatcha taking, RHM ?

Haha funny. Glad you're enjoying your day.

Haha funny. Glad you're enjoying your day.

Shopping for loo brushes, duvet covers and storage boxes, I needed some distraction

[RHM]

Thanks for asking gandhajala. I'm taking a class to "retool my professional skills to re-enter the work force". I really need to get a paying job, everything I do is volunteer. That's great but my husband would be happier if I brought home some cash. (So would I.)

"Simple Home Repairs" If I can fix it myself, I can save some money (to buy more perfume).
and
"Henna 101: The Natural Art of Henna" My daughter and I love to get henna tattoos in the summer. Now I can learn how to do them myself.

Sofie (she's my 14 year old) made up a game when she characterized people through mundane objects. For example, If I were a bird, she says I would be a toucan. If I were a tree I would be an oak. If I were a cat, I would be Turkish Van. Her latest was, if I were a fungus, I would be a mushroom.

There was a class on "Common Mushrooms of Missouri" and I wanted to take it just to tease Sofie. Unfortunately, I had a scheduling conflict. No mushrooms for me.

By chance, I joined the iris lovers convention here today and had already applied Hermes Hiris before reading this mornings iris musings. And a picture too! Thanks RHM!

[gandhajala]

Sounds great, RHM. I keep thinking I should take a DIY course.
Maybe The Common Mushrooms of Missouri will run again next year ( I'd be down for that course, too).
Good luck with finding paid employment and have fun at College !

Quick post from work as when I log in from home the reply box is grayed out for some reason...Not sure what is going on, it's IE on both 'puters, and I'm logged in and all, checked settings; will mess with it somemore or download firefox and try that I guess.

Anyhoo,
Today the wonderful Mure et Musc Extreme (AND - I am going to have to recharacterize this! To my nose, office friendly, kindergarten teacher, not oversexy, safe, gorgeous but not, well, hot. But it has become my LTP's absolute favorite, he finds it sexy; and I got a lovely and decidedly inappropriate compliment on it from someone else - a sniff, then a closer sniff and a "WHAT IS THAT? You shouldn't wear that, it's dangerous, oh my god you smell sexy." So maybe it smells different to guys? Because I've never had any smell have this effect on people, it's not me AFAIK)

Yesterday Neil Morris Storm

Saturday Mure et Musc Extreme

Friday Neil Morris City Rain

Have a great day, everyone!

[Evangeline]

Hey y'all -

I'm in vintage-70s Calvin Klein for the afternoon.

Wolfie - lol! Okay, I won't ask ...but actually, since you mention it, there was plenty of live musc in the air along with the music!

[Mimi Gardenia]

Just got back from the gym - Frangipani extrait by Ormonde Jayne this afternoon.

[blackened]

Chanel 19 edp

[knit at nite]

Purplelips Sensual by Dali again for me. Nice cinnamony scent with a terrible name- I keep imagining a kid eating a grape popsicle in a salacious manner. Banish the thought.

Nuit de Tubereuse L'Artisan Parfumeur

[Quarry]

Hello, Familiars. Gleeful vibes to you.

Just dabbed on some sweet Sabi.

This year the strawberries are growing in a raised bed, and, while reaching over to pull a weed, I smelled the strawberry blossoms for the first time -- so lovely and simple, like apple blossoms.

[Guest 3]

Strawberry blossom sounds lovely, Quarry.

I’m sampling Attar Bazaar’s Egyptian Musk. I can barely smell it – another musk I can’t detect so I sprayed a little Toujours Moi over it. I just discovered Toujours Moi. Actually someone whose taste seems to coincide with mine mentioned it, so I bought a little bottle, lemming that I am. I love it. It’s sort of a cross between Habanita and Tabu, but lighter. Love, love, love.

[Whitefluffy]

Hi everyone. I am a bit late but I was wearing my lucky charm to take Final Exam today: Jasmin de Nuit.

[Mimi Gardenia]

Quarry - I love your new Miss Piggy extreme sport avatar.
Whitefluffy- welcome to Basenotes and good luck with your final exam .
I added Diorissimo EDT to Frangipani extrait- not a bad combination. Not too fond of Diorissimo EDP - why put tuberose into it, Mr . Demachy ? I don't understand it.

[cestrum nocturnum]

Good afternoon/evening! SotD was Aimez Moi-- reminds me of violets crystallized in vanilla sugar and satisfied the violet craving from Lilybelle's yummy sounding perfume oil the other day. And it was perfect for shopping and errands!

Take care, all!

Oh, and Mimi, your new avatar looks amazing too!
