Good morning everyone!

Today I'm wearing Cabotine edp.

(Ginger Lily painting by Karin Dawn Kelshall-Best)

What are you wearing?

I wish you all a nice day!

Today is my grandson's 4th birthday. I'll be wearing Borneo 1834 in honor of him (I have a decant of it near my computer, and he often reaches for it and enjoys sniffing it!)

Hello everyone. Tres Russe.

Good morning, girls.
Calèche.

Morning all.

Cuir de Russie (Chanel) for me today.

Happy birthday to your grandson, Nubka! He's got good taste.

Versace The Dreamer for me today.

Carven's Vetiver

Come on, Ed.
Snuggle up...that's a family favorite.

Nubkele- kiss that boy for me, would you ?

I'm green again, in Crepe de Chine.
I really need green, on a cellular level.
Crave it.

Zen

Pucci Vivara parfum--the original one!

Sharing Versace with besotted, Versus Uomo for me today.

Home with youngest DS, who has a very nasty, barking cough today--hope it's not the bug discussed on the Life forum! Had Ultraviolet on when I dressed for work...

Le Parfum de Therese. I can really tell that the perfumer is the same as for Diorama. It is only recently that I mistook one for the other and realized the similarity.

Vintage Givenchy L'Interdit.

Shalimar after a cooling shower mid morning !

Testing out Dior Addict.

Like the grassy, green vanille combo top notes, but now it's become a bit fumey and too 'warm' ambery.

I wanted to smell something today even though I'm home sick again and can't smell much, so I reached for something I haven't worn in a while--Montale Powder Flowers. If I hold my wrist right under my nose, I can smell it. *sigh*

Hermès Calèche.

Top note : Aldehydes, Bergamot, Lemon, Neroli
Middle note : Rose, Jasmine, Lily of the valley, Orris
Base note : Oakmoss, Cedarwood, Sandal, Vetiver

It's possible to wear it now. A bit soapy but I think I can smell some flowers too. I'm happy for that. And here is more happiness. My first Caron arrived today. So now, after work, I'm wearing Caron Parfum Sacré. It feels sweeter than I remember from the sample. But I wore Acqua di Parma Colonia yesterday and Calèche today so I think it's the contrast to those scents that make me feel it's sweeter.

L'Ombre dans L'Eau today.

Happy birthday to your grandson, Nubka, we share the same day! And Liz Taylor too. :o)

I'm wearing my new obsession Montale Ginger Musk. I can't remember a fragrance grabbing me like this one has. I wear it more than anything right now. And so different for me from my usual ambers. I'm in love.

Samsara

Emma

I'm bathed in Sous le Vent today - mmmm!

No idea what came over me: Jar Jardenia!

24, Faubourg is perfect today. It just seems to hit the spot, if you know what I mean!

i´m wearing my sample of chanel cristalle edP today - makes me happy :)

moreover i´m sampling chanel n° 5 & coco extrait - i adore the drydown of both, but the beginning of n° 5 is a bit over the top sparkling for me.
i so wish i´d get a hold on a bottle of n° 5 eau premiere - mission impossible, i know.

Started out with a tiny dab of vintage Replique which quickly went very, very awful on me so I scrubbed that off and started again with some DKNY Delicious Night, which I like, probably enough to buy a full bottle someday. Happy Wednesday!

Cristobal.

Hamptons by Bond #9 today. I've finally given up on Creed Silver Mountain Water - and switched to Hamptons. The Creed Millesime base just doesn't work on my skin.

Teddius

It started out Boudoir, the pure parfum for once and much, much nicer than I'd remembered, and is now Bond no9 Silver Factory because things went flying off a counter. Not the bottle, the sample.

Floris Edwardian Bouquet

Wow Fiveoaks, JAR Jardenia? When I sniffed that a few years ago at the JAR boutique in Paris, it turned my stomach - I was with a friend and I looked at her with a wild-eyed expression and politely said, "Oh my!" as the salesperson was right there watching my reaction. Privately I told her it smelled like rotting plant matter. It was the only JAR that I really didn't like. Of course it didn't help that I was extremely jet-lagged and not feeling my best, but I don't know if I would have the courage to smell it again.

Lancome Magie Noire. Was helping a library patron today and he asked me if I had been consuming coffee because he smelled it on me. Strange. I'm not a coffee drinker, nor do I detect any 'coffee-ness' in Magie Noire. Funny what comments you hear sometimes. I also was told by a patron today that I always have reminded him of Sara Evans because of my long dark hair and red lips. NOW that was nice!

Belara

Caz, pretty much the general reaction I remember. When we were trying the Jars at Bergdorf Goodman a couple of years ago the general concensus was Jardenia had a sort of mushroom earthy smell that was very funky. Everyone kind of looked at each other and went eeeuuuuwww (or at best looked very doubtful). I did not wear this for quite a while, then today when I decided to try some, lo and behold that smell was gone and it was all flowers with a honeyed note.

Vivara by Emilio Pucci. Oops, I think it's tomorrow already. clare stella
