Friday scent of the day 7/31
Lo and behold, Friday. (Also, World Ranger Day.) Our community project for today is best of summer…wear the perfume you’re reaching for the most this summer. (If it’s winter where you are, wear the perfume you’re reaching for the most this winter.)
What fragrance did you pick? As always, do chime in with your scent of the day even if you’re not participating in the community project.

Such great choices
My earliest memories of fragrance came from my mother, my cousin Deanie, and grandmother. My grandmother always wore Joy by Jean Patou; she never changed.

But I distinctly remember her wearing Red by Geoffrey Beene! And then my cousin Deanie wore this fragrance called Bandit by Robert Piguet. Bandit stood out because of the name and box, and because the woman who wore it was so wonderful. I just always attributed that to her, feeling like she made such great choices that all felt like they were part of who she wanted the world to see, you know?
