Good morning, gentlemen.
A sync is A fragrance you love but hate its Ad (Description). WIll go with YSL Opium (hate them humongous feet). Have nothing to do all morning and am unwell with dripping nose, sneezing and coughing.
Hell all. Its cold and bright here and totally off the wall I am wearing Hermes Un Jardin Sur Toit! Yes a summer garden in the autumn.
DONNA
Oh Twolf! Get well soon my dear.
Mirroring Donna by wearing Escale a Portofino in the Autumn.
Beautiful day here also, will go for a long walk shortly.
A woman without perfume is like a flower without a scent.
Feel better soon, Twolf!
Wearing Une Voix Noire today.
Enjoy the weekend, lovelies!
Do happy
Wolfie I hope you feel better soon!
SOTD is Parfums de Nicolai Balkis. Scrumptious!
Notes include raspberry, Turkish rose, black pepper, coffee extract, iris, benzoin and vanilla
Happy Friday, all!

*swoon* Love you Danny. Missed you. Tabacco Toscano is top of my list for my next trip to Italy, probably next spring. It is gorgeous, isn't it? I was wearing Back to Black yesters and I was thinking about TT!! You smell wonderful.
Oh, Wolfies tail is down and she has a hot nose. Not for long hopefully. ((Wolfie)).
Haven't got my sh!t together for the sync today. Sorry bonsai. Anyway, I'm going into town so will go in the nuddy so that I can try something.

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..."

I am not synchronized as I quite like the marketing for this one but since it is "cold" today (about 70F) and it's been hot so long I am in another cool weather scent, Like This for Tilda Swinton by Etat Libre DeOrange.
Good morning everyone!
I'm in sync. This was an easy one for me - I've even mentioned it here several times. I can't stand the trashy ad campaign for Dior Addict but I just adore this fragrance. I get it - with that name they'd want to go for an edgy, raw and strung-out feel in the ads, but they're just so vulgar and unappealing to me ...I think they're actually a part of why I avoided it for several years.
So, instead of that sleazy ad, here's another excellent René Gruau illustration for Dior Couture ...I really love this one. Y'all have a great day!
Oh no, ((Wolfie)) - I just hate to hear that you're feeling so icky.You need to rest and take it easy for a few days - just let MrT coddle and pamper you a bit, and rub your feet. That should get you feeling better in no time!
Congratulations 30 Roses - what an impressive milestone! We're lucky to have you!![]()
Science is not only compatible with spirituality, it is a profound source of spirituality. When we recognize our place in an immensity of light-years and in the passage of ages, when we grasp the intricacy, beauty, and subtlety of life, then that soaring feeling, that sense of elation and humility combined, is surely spiritual. ..Carl Sagan
At the risk of boring everyone, another Balloon Fiesta vid with fun music!
Heeley Cuir Pleine Fleur from a sample today.
Good morning!
Oh Twolf, so sorry to hear your getting sick. Please take care of yourself and get well soon!!!!!!
Congrats, 30 Roses on reaching 9,000 posts!
Wearing Hermes Vanilla Galante this morning. I thought it would be a better choice for a doctor
appointment. Will be in sync later with Dior Addict, whose advertising is probably my least favorite.
Have a great day!

I'm having a little musk fest this morning: A dab of Bonne Bell Skin Musk oil, and another of Jovan Musk Oil, and a spritz of Kiehl's Original Musk edt over that for good measure. I was considering a dab of Egyptian musk, too, but I stopped at Kiehl's. I can't think of any synch possibilities today. I'm not all that aware of advertising. I seldom read magazines and I never see perfume ads on tv either.I'm a hobbit, I live in the Shire.

(((RHM))), so sorry to hear about your mom. Hope she is doing well today and that poor girl of yours, too. Migraines are just awful. All my best to your family.
(((Twolf))), feel better soon! Please try to get some rest.
Synced in Kelly Caleche. Haven't seen a television ad for this but the print ad misses the mark entirely. Love the scent, though!
Cello, I am loving the balloons! I meant to tell you that yesterday. They are so beautiful. I wish I were brave enough to ride in one -- but I hate heights. I think I just like enjoying them from the ground. Who are the couple (wife is dead now) who went around wrapping bridges and things in fabric. I forget their names, but the balloons remind me of that sort of HUGE art. What is the music? I love it.

I'm wearing Tom Ford White Patchouli, and I can't complain about the ad because my hair is big and wildly curly today, too!
Welcome katesonskates!
Cello, love the balloon footage
SotE - Hermes Hiris.

Hey all. So good to be back among you! I posted in the sync that I would wear Kelly Caleche, but when I went for it, my hands wandered instead to this present I got last year. I could not resist. It warms my soul. So, I set it up in my kitchen and snapped a quick photo, weird props and all.
I could chew my wrists when I wear this elixir.

Beauty is an ecstasy; it is as simple as hunger. There is really nothing to be said about it. It is like the perfume of a rose: you can smell it and that is all.
