hmm. I haven't gone to sleep yet but I am wearing Dune by Dior and thinking I will wear it in the morning. But, I could very likely change my mind. Right now I'm thinking it's Dune, though. smile.gif

Shalimar body cream topped with Mitsouko EDP.
teacake
Chanel Coromandel..

This is 10,000 times nicer than I expected from the reviews.. I LOVE IT.
Bvlgari BLV
SL Miel Du Bois for me - the one fragrance that immediately shouts spring flowers bees and sun to me.

Today is L'Heure Bleue.

Perfect Veil today. I have been to the doctor so didn't want to upset anyone.
Delphinique
I chose Allure (edt) and am delighting in it.

Why don't I wear it more often? Just got out of a morning meeting and felt a bit self conscious that the sillage was still powerful that close to application, but the scent feels sexy and professional..the vetiver makes it business like, right?? Oh well.
BitterGrace
Bourbon French Perfume of Paradise. This one's been a good lesson in giving a perfume time to win your heart. I deeply disliked it on first sniff years ago, yet it has slowly become a real favorite.

Good morning! I'm wearing AG Eau de Charlotte edp this morning.

Take care every9one!

I thought about wearing Eau de Merveilles - always good when I need to be cerebral and sharp, yet comfortable. I'm desk-bound all day finishing a paper for Wednesday.
But I wanted a little fun... so I'm testing again. Nanadebary Bronze on my left and Bois d'Iris on my right wrist.

My initial reaction to Bois d'Iris was: Carrots! Not unpleasant just overwhelming. It's the iris root isn't it? It has since mellowed down and I'm looking forward to following it for the next couple of hours.

Bronze is a different kettle of fish... Sweet and girly, kitten-ishly sexy. Apparently it has a tendency to fade rather quickly. We'll see...

I fully know what you mean ["laughs ruefully"]...
I received a reluctant lecture from my doctor regarding sillage a few months ago...
And now, Mando is the proud owner of Black Aoud !

Today is Bois Farine, because I won't have to worry about folks complaining about 'peanuts'....

Hope all goes well, at the doctor's today, for you...

I wore Shalimar parfum to bed, and the scent lingered this morning. Spritzed a small amount of Coromandel over it (waves to Teacake) and the combo is really quite nice.

Mona di Orio's Nuit Noir. Like Narcisse Noir crawled into bed with a civet cat. Classic vamp stuff. "I'm ready for my close-up Mr. DeMille!"
chanel22
Sage Machado's Citrine oil this morning. It's very clean and fresh and gets me going. I'll switch to something else later.
dawnkana
Nandebary Green. Loving this one.

Un Jardin sur le Nil by Hermes

Caroline Herrera 212. I'm liking it a lot and seems just right on warm days.

Kuumba Made Vanilla Musk

For the start of M week, I'm wearing Serge Lutens latest exclusive, Mandarine Mandarin. It veers dangerously close to the (unwearable for me) Arabie, but today it's behaving and I'm enjoying the slightly fruity, warm spicy sillage.
bergamot
Mystere de Rochas
pinklilac3
Cashmere Mist...
minette
Since I never know which letter of the alphabet we're on, I chose Creation by Ted Lapidus, an odd, sweet, slightly smoky scent with a touch of skank.
katy
folavril by Annick Goutal. I can really smell the tomato leaves today.
Cally79
Lea St. Barth again today. I can still smell last night's after bath application and it's so nice at this stage!

At last the weather is beautiful, sunny and hot, so I can wear Ligea la Sirena:) It blooms in such weather!

"May I say that you smell really special?"

That's a sharp observation, the connection between the two NN's. The contrast is, imo, that Di Orio's sensual and curvy, whereas Narcisse Noir is quite geometrical and severe. A protestant to Di Orio's catholic.. ;-)
Fleurry
Perfume of Life Wanderlust. Pretty, pink and spicy!
Contessa
Divine Bergamot by The Different Company
StAndrewsGirl
Belle de Rykiel. Delicious! Happy Monday, all!
Minou
Un Lys
Zephyr
I wore BBW Japanese Cherry Blossom EDT for the first time. I can barely smell it now. I think the lotion lasts longer.

Attar Bazaar Persian Amber - still great!

Just testing today.
:O)
magdalene
Started post shower with Manoi de Tahiti.

Spritzed on CandE Gardenia before going out.

This evening, Gardenia gone, splashed on Molinard Jasmine.

This afternoon I wore Rose de Rosine in extrait. Lovely.
