It's Friday, plus World Elephant Day and International Youth Day. Our community project for today: wear a fragrance with a magnolia note, if you have one.
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.
I'm in Guerlain Cologne du 68, which does list magnolia among its 68 notes. I need to buy a magnolia soliflore one of these days.
Reminder: 8/19 is Coco Chanel’s birthday. We've done two Chanel projects in the past (see 2014 and 2019). If you're up for a third, wear something by Chanel, with double points for wearing No. 19. If you're not up for a third, vote with your fragrance: wear a brand that you think deserves more attention. Suggested by Dawn.
And for those of you who like to plan ahead, see Scent of the day ~ Friday community projects 2022, where I'll try (but obviously sometimes fail) to always have the next five or six weeks mapped out in advance.

Good morning and TGIF!
Claiming cp points with LV’s Etoile Filante.
Thought I could find magnolia scents easily in my collection but no, and also found out I have more tuberose than I realised.
Tea currently is matchy matchy magnolia oolong.
TGIF to you happy888cat!
There does seem to be a general dearth of magnolia.
Magnolia oolong tea sounds fantastic!
Well school is back in session. It struck me last night I am older than every single parent! I needed a pick me up. I am wearing Dans tes Bras FM that my sister gave me.
That transition can be unsettling. I’m now older than almost all my college students’ parents, and my husband is getting into grandparent territory.
But you smell wonderful!
My parents were usually the oldest ones in my cohort when I was growing up. I thought it was rather cool.
Happy Friyay!
SoTD!
BYREDO Mojave Ghost,magnolia is listed as a note so yay for cp points!
A day of running errands, now I am ready for an afternoon snooze!
Looking forward to next week for the Chanel cp, I can do a whole week of Chanel!
XO’s
Chanel is going to be a lot easier for most people than magnolia, turns out.
Enjoy that nap 🙂
It was a good nap!

I’ve been watching a British tv series recently and thinking of you because of the gilding. It’s called The Great Big Tiny Design Challenge. Every week contestants have to design a room for a dolls house mansion ( nursery, bedroom, entrance etc.) in a different historical style ( Elizabethan, rococo etc.), all on a tiny scale . It’s really interesting in terms of making, and there is sometimes a tiny bit of gilding. It works like the British bake off or sewing bee, in so much that people get voted off etc. Some fantastic real life mansion interiors are shown. You might like it.
Oh thank you!I will check it out!
Oh gosh, I really want to watch this. I hope it starts streaming in the US soon.
Oh, I love a touch of gilding on anything. It lends such an air of beauty and refinement!
I am wearing Acqua di Parma Magnolia Nobile today and drinking a cup of Lady Grey tea.
Happy Friday 🙂
Big points!
I’m in JHaG Magnolia Bliss from a sample. I saved it til Friday because I don’t think I have anything else with magnolia in it. I’m generally not a floral fan.
Cooler here and overcast. I’m meeting a former colleague friend for lunch later. It will be fun to catch up.
I got word from my college daughter last night that my teenage daughter made it safely back to summer camp after 14 days in Canada’s Quetico Provincial Park. I can’t wait to hear all about it! She gets home tomorrow.😍 I’m also very happy to hear she made it safely in and out of the country with her misgendered passport. Whew. Now we need to get that fixed!
Happy Friday!
Hey, I spritzed some Magnolia Bliss on yesterday at Sephora. I was in Kohl’s with a friend and looking for placemats. Funny how I ended up in the makeup… 🤔 What did you think of it? I thought it was okay. There was an Estée Lauder magnolia something something there, but I wasn’t crazy for how it smelled on a paper blotter.
At first spritz it is very pretty, but then…I’m a few hours in and that JHaG ambroxan at the base is getting to be all I can smell. The only thing from that line that’s worked for me is Musc Invisible. Happy to send it you if you’d like! Just let me know.
Thank you for your thoughtfulness mtg! I think I tried the MI and it didn’t really work on me.
Glad to hear your daughter’s trip went smoothly!
“I’m generally not a floral fan” is what I told myself and was shocked to discover that I have more florals than I originally thought.
Glad you daughter made it to Canada and back! For some reason I thought you were able to resolve this … but then again, misgendered seem to be officially acceptable anyway. 🤷🏻♀️
And I was shocked to discover I love Carnal Flower, so I never say never anymore.
So I did print off the paperwork for a corrected passport, but you have to mail the incorrect one back while waiting for the corrected one. So I had to decide: gamble on the fact that the corrected passport would be back to her in time, or go with the incorrect one? I chose the latter because you are correct in that the gender on your passport does not have to match the gender on your supporting document. I sent her birth certificate and social security card too, just in case!
I really liked Magnolia Bliss… until the drydown. In no time at all I was just left with Ambroxan. I’ve given up on this house.
Happy to hear all went well with madtownteens travels!
I thought you were going to say you liked it until you didn’t anymore 🤣
Yep, same.
Thanks! I can’t wait to see her.😍
Glad to hear that madtownteen’s journey was an Awesome one and not Bogus!
Happy Friday everyone! I am a long-term background lurker and trying to join back to the community projects after a long break:)
It is early evening where I live and in the morning I unwrapped my blind-buy bottle of Bvlgari Aqua Divina as it apparently is the only perfume with magnolia note in my collection. It provided a nice background hum for office day, but I really appreciate the scent of my current environment more (picking blackcurrants next to lilies in full bloom).
picking berries near flowers is better than anything in a bottle:)
Welcome back!😀
Welcome back, finanna!
Thanks madtowngirl &hajusuuri:)
@shellyw: I agree! Blackcurrant leaves smell so wonderful!
Hello there! I really like several BVL scents:)
Welcome back!
Hello again!
I know I have a sample of Atelier Cologne Sud Magnolia somewhere but heck if I can find it, so no community points for me in Dior Midnight Poison, which I can hardly believe is 15 years old. It’s very simple (how did it take 3 top perfumers to create a basic rose patchouli?), but I like it a lot.
And such a pretty bottle.🤩
Love your SOTD, but wish I could smell the rose in it. I get the patch and the citrus top notes and that’s it.
I’m not taking any cp points at all. I went looking for one of my two magnolia inclusive scents, and while I found one, I really don’t like it so I passed. However, while looking I found my large decant of French Lover, which I love, so that’s what I’m wearing.
Hello all!
Surprisingly getting Poll Points in the 2006 Missoni, the five star hot mess. I love it still, and it is very nostalgic to me, but sometimes it does smell like Dial clear soap. I never would have guessed there was magnolia in here.
Stay safe everyone, and have a great weekend.
Oh I’m sorry, just have hit the wrong button. 😅😅😅
Who doesn’t love a good five star hot mess? Lol, I love that description.
I would like to think I am a five star hot mess lol
I have a massive case of perfume envy. You smell wonderful! I wish it was still available:(
Hmm..not much of a mag fan. In Marienbad by Prada..it’s sublime..expensive and probably will never own a bottle. Maybe a split eventually who knows lol. For those who like fumes like Lab 18, Ambra di Luna..this scent is for you. Prada was my gateway into amber and powdery scents and happy it was lol.
Is summer near the end? That was fast! More floods this way I guess. Extra humid summer here..at least for the desert.
That Prada line is ridiculously expensive. I love Un Chant d’ Amour but will probably never own a bottle either.
In Ormonde Jayne Sampaquita for the CP.
So glad is Friday! The heat and humidity is finally gone to better places. What a relief!
On my second cup of coffee with a slice of peach pie! 🍑 🥧.
Happy Friday! 🌞
You smell lovely! Enjoy your better weather.😎🌞
Thank you! 🌻
It’s just perfect here too. Warm without humidity!
Happy Friday!
Glorious day here with blue, sunny skies, windy, no humidity and we only reached 82 degrees. Perfection! 🌞
Do you have a FB or was it from a sample. I have to pull my sample out!
It is from a sample. I don’t like it enough to get a full bottle.
It got up to 87 here, but that was still better than all those temps we both had in the 90’s. Now if only I could get a little rain here. Just got a drought declaration here in NJ earlier in the week, ugh.
We haven’t seen rain in my area in weeks. Everything is so dry and there is no rain in the forcast for next week. Crossing fingers for at least some drizzle!
I want the rain to clean the bird poop off my car. There are only a few spots.
It may take a while!
I saved FM Eau Magnolia for today, and am now wondering why I didn’t wear it all week — had forgotten how completely lovely and summery it is. I doubt it really smells like magnolia flowers in the wild, so to speak, but I don’t care. 🥰
I wish I had found mine!
Scent twins – really glad I decanted this mini into a spray bottle, because now I remember I have it. Might even like it better than Iris Poudre, gasp
Commando as I head out to scrub the pergola — we are having guests for drinks later on and now that the heat has broken, it would be lovely to be outdoors. Not sure what I will choose later — no magnolia here, AFAIK. Probably Hiris, which I haven’t worn in a few weeks.
Looking for suggestions from make-up-wearing NSTers: I am looking for a new, light-to-medium coverage, hydrating foundation with a natural or dewy (but not sparkly or oily and definitely NOT MATTE) finish. My skin is dry and I’m in my 50s. I would prefer one without SPF, since I wear high-SPF sunscreen year-round, with and without makeup. Even though The NY Times had an article last week that proclaimed “foundation is dead,” I do not mind a little assistance evening out my skin tone.
I alternate between Chanel Vitalumiere (a lightweight, close-to-sheer liquid foundation) and Dermalogica Sheer Tint (it says it’s a tinted moisturizer, but I use it over my regular moisturizer and it works well as a very sheer evener-outer). Both have low-protection sunscreen, but I wouldn’t think they would clash with the high-protection sunscreen you use. The Chanel’s sunscreen is chemical (octinoxate) and the Dermalogica also includes a physical barrier (zinc oxide added to the octinoxate).
Thank you! Have never tried either of these, so will look for samples.
La Mer Soft Fluid Long Wear Foundation with SPF 20 is my foundation of choice. It’s barely there for me. I use the La Mer SPF 50 sunscreen all over my face (including eyelids), then layer a tiny pump of this foundation everywhere on my face except what my bangs cover because why waste it. I then blot lightly with a tissue so nothing transfers to my mask, which I still wear on the train and several blocks past NYPenn.
I’m sure your La Mer person would be happy to give you a sample or two. Some Macys stores have a La Mer counter and a Macys SA once told me that you can return anything you want. I go to Nordstrom have only exchanged one La Mer item, coincidentally a foundation, because the formula ended up separating at first opening.
Good luck and please let us know what you ended up with!
If only I had a La Mer person 🙂 the Sephora on the mall (40 miles away) may carry it, but the last time I was in-store (about a month ago), I was unable to get ANY of the SAs to acknowledge me, let alone help me — and I had gone in precisely for the foundation question. Nearest Nordstrom is five+ hours away (in NYC). I’ll certainly try the LaMer if the opportunity presents itself, though it is priced higher than I generally go for color cosmetics. OTOH, your suggestion that this can be made transfer-resistant is very appealing! Blech to scungu masks.
So many typos. Sorry!
For super cheap, the Wet and Wild Tinted Hydrator can’t be beat! No SPF, can easily be sheered to a light coverage but building to a medium is no chore. Semi dewy finish, you may wish to powder in your T zone. Really beautiful finish!
For a more expensive one I really like the EL Double Wear Sheer. It does have an SPF of 19, so that my nix it for you if you have sensitivities, but a lovely dry down and finish. Another higher end brand I absolutely love is the Monica Blunder “Blunder Cover.” Can be applied sheer and built to a medium coverage. No SPF, solid coverage, dries down and sets without power to a natural satin finish. It’s available on Amazon, so you have to research colors to get close to your skin color, depth and undertone, but I found my perfect color the very first purchase. It’s one of my favorites! Have fun!
FYI: I’d say I have normal to dry skin, fair, with a lot of redness in my cheeks. Just healing up after I tried an SPF and broke out with deep cystic acne spot in 3 different regions. The blunder cover works well to cover those spots.
I’ve never tried Double Wear — I seem to have an aversion to EL makeup and skincare products (except for More than Mascara!), although I love the fragrances. Maybe worth a sample! I’ll check out W&W, too; have used nail polish and eyeshadow from them but haven’t tried face products.
Have you considered a tinted sunscreen? That’s the best I would be able to do for a recommendation.
Nars tinted moisturizer with SPF was my go/to for years, but at some point the color became too yellow for my skin and also started to sit atop my skin like a oily layer. I’ve tried Laura Mercier’s tinted moisturizer several times because so many people love it, but it makes me break out. I think, too, that maybe I want a bit more coverage now. But do you have a tinted moisturizer you like?
Happy Friday!
In Magnolia Grandiflora Michel from a generous NST swap. It’s balances green and floral so beautifully.
Nice, and we should have done extra points for magnolia in the name.
Absolutely!
Oh yay, I figured you would wear this today. I’m in their Sandrine version!
Yay! And thank you again!
Let’s try this again! Hello all!
Surprisingly getting Poll Points in the 2006 Missoni, the five star hot mess. I love it still, and it is very nostalgic to me, but sometimes it does smell like Dial clear soap. I never would have guessed there was magnolia in here.
Stay safe everyone, and have a great weekend.
Oddly I cannot remember Dial clear! I definitely remember the scent of Dial though.
Currently in the long discontinued Havana Vanille today. Don’t often wear vanilla perfume but wanted that one today.
You smell great Dawn!
I’m twins with SheriG in Eau de Magnolia. I’m cleaning the fridge shelf by shelf this week. It’s amazing how many condiments I have!
I think condiments are an alien species intent on taking over the world.
They breed in there!
I looked but don’t have a perfume I identify as a magnolia scent – though some list that as a note (Jadins de Bagatelle is evocative of the feeling). But I grew up in Georgia. During my high school years, I lived in a house that had magnolia trees in the front yard, the magnolia grandiflora. So many teenage problems can be set aside when in the presence and fragrance of this tree in bloom. SotD is Cynthia Rowley, which has a lemon verbena note, and very much reminds me of those flowers.
Your front garden sounds bliss. Totally agree about the problem solving benefits of flowering trees. And lemon verbena captures that aspect of grandiflora so well.
Glad you agree – and now I want some lemon verbena tea!
I was stunned the first time I smelled a magnolia in bloom, since I did not grow up with them.
When I travel in the South, I don’t fail to sniff them if they are in season; they are worth pulling off the road for! 🙂
No clear magnolia perfume at hand, so I’m in Addictive Vibration, from a sample. It’s a bit too “Juicy Fruit gum” for my taste, so I think I’m going to layer something with a little more heft on top of it.
Happy Friday, everybody!
Hope you found the right thing Lisa D! And happy Friday to you.
No SOTD now. Had what was supposed to be outpatient surgery on Wednesday but it ended up being so complicated it took three times as long as expected and bought me an overnight admission and I now have a lovely drain dangling out of my abdomen. Ugh! I will say I had some lovely nurses and residents. The surgeon had the typical lightening fast bedside manner of most surgeons: “Abcessed gall bladder, no questions, ok bye!” And zoom, away he goes…🙄
Picking up the doggo from the kennel today, thankful I had the foresight to board her the day before “just in case.” I will cry on her shoulder. As long as I feed her treats she will cuddle till the cows come home.
I hope you recover fast! I felt so much better when my gall bladder was gone. Hugs to you and T-Rex.
Thanks! I wasn’t feeling bad at all but kept passing stones that partially or fully obstructed the cystic or common bile duct. Couldn’t have surgery at the time because of Covid and a lap-chole want considered “emergent.” By the time those restrictions were lifted, I was at a very small hospital and didn’t want to have surgery there, for many reasons I won’t go into. No one was more surprised about the actual status of my gallbladder than me and I think the surgeon since my presentation was quite benign. And this is why surgeons are always late. It’s people like me that throw a hitch in the giddy-up. 🤷🏻♀️
Deva, an abcessed gall bladder sounds dreadful. Thank goodness that you have T-Rex to give you recuperative snuggles!
Thanks. I was very surprised it was that bad…snuggles will resume when I’m able to get in and out of the bed. So far have been living in the recliner…
Oh I am very sorry to hear you’ve had this problem. I hate to think how blergh you must have felt leading up to the surgery! Sending a perfumed hug – take care of yourself!
Perfumes hugs back to you! Finally able to spritz a little Vetiver Tonka on myself.
Having had three months of drains I feel your pain. Hope you can escape and recover. Did your surgeon wear a bow tie?
Oh, I know your were quite ill for a long while! The only thing my surgeon wore was a harassed look on his face because he was already running two hours late before I threw a another monkey wrench at him, causing an even worse delay for the person behind me…whoops!
Speedy recovery wishes to you!
T-rex and I have something in common.. I will also cuddle til the cows come home for treats!😉
Ha! Thanks for your well wishes!
OMG. Glad it is mostly over. Hope all goes well with the recovery. Skritches to doggo.
Thanks!
Here is my “Get well soon” card as well!
Thank goodness for T-rex-love during recovery!
So hard to be a “patient”,right?
XO’s
Thanks for the “card”! I appreciate it. Yes, being a patient is a real pita but luckily I got some great nurses and a whole team of resident surgeons who were working with my surgeon. They seemed suitably impressed with the state of my gallbladder! 😂
“Suitably impressed with the state of my gallbladder” is not an enviable position to be in — really glad they caught it before it got worse, and hope you are back to normal soon Deva!
That sounds nasty, I’m glad to hear you’re recovering.
Thanks Gaynor!
Wishing you a speedy recovery Deva! Sending you healing vibes and lots of hugs for T-Rex! 🌻
Aw, thanks! She loves hugs! She’s a really people person and I’m a real dog person, so we are well matched!
Oh, gosh, sending you a great big hug 🤗 and wishes for a very speedy recovery. And I know your ‘doggo’ with her cuddles will make you feel a whole lot better, too. Rest and take care!🤗🌭
Thanks, Laila!
ZOMG! Scary! Glad to hear that you are on the road to recovery, albeit with a couple of unexpected bumps. Hugs to you and T-Rex.
Yikes, I’m so sorry you had such an ordeal with your gall bladder. I hope you turn the corner and feel back to normal very soon! I was diagnosed with gallstones at the end of January, so I should probably get on the stick and get mine out. 😳
Holy cow! Wishing you a speedy and robust recovery.
Happy Friday, everyone!
SOTD: In BBW Marigold & Cane Sugar- sweet, light and floral, very casual and perfect for this hot day. No magnolia in the scent, but I have a magnolia tree next door, which smelled glorious this past spring.
The extreme heat of 100f/38c has now calmed down to a 82F/28c, THANK GOD, so I can get some garden trim & clean up done. And will be planting for fall/winter green crops!
Another gardener grateful for cooler weather. I’ve sowed some buttercrunch lettuce, coriander, beets, turnips and radishes for fall crops. In the past, only turnips have worked where I live, but we shall see. The beets sprouted in just over two days, so here’s hoping. BTW, I don’t much like radishes, but someone gave me the seeds, so I if I pick one in October, I will munch it up in gratitude!
With the radishes: Consider cooking them briefly in butter, salt & herbs, and serve as a side. It’s an amazing revelation.
I will try this! I usually like bitter and hot flavors, but raw radishes have always been too much.
Or maybe air fry? I’ve never tried it before though so if you do it, please report back!
I love radishes straight from the ground:) mmmmm
I wish I did!
Wearing Dolce Vita which does have magnolia hidden away. I went on a magnolia hunt yesterday and came across a few early blooms in the botanic gardens, a touch of pink against the ash grey branches. Still a bit cold and early. The moon looks big this morning, lighting up the hills.
I mentioned it above but really recommend a British tv series , The great big tiny house challenge. Same formula as the bake off, or sewing bee, but contestants make rooms for a dolls house in various historical styles: regency, Elizabethan, rococo etc. Incredible talent and skill. Also some visits to real historic houses.
https://www.channel4.com/programmes/the-great-big-tiny-design-challenge
I will have to see if I can find that show in the US, it sounds fun!
Moon was huge here last night, I think that’s the last supermoon of the year.
Happy Friday!
I’m also in FM Eau de Magnolia, for the CP 🙂
This one never grew on me. I find the opening very pleasant, but there is something in the middle notes that puts me off every time and reminds me why I don’t wear it often. I imagined this to be a light citrusy floral fragrance, but at least on my skin, the scent gets too dark, too soon.
I liked it ok but did not adore it. Really I have never yet found a magnolia I was dying to own.
Have you tried the two by Grandiflora, Robin? They’re definitely worth a try.
I am ashamed to say I can’t remember. They do seem to be the most loved.
No points
rose prick
I walked past the NYPL and had a dream that we recognized each other and had the world’s longest hug.
And with regard to Rose Prick, there’s a mini set of 3 x 12mL TF fragrances I just saw at Saks: F-cking Fabulous (but the first word crossed out), Rose Prick and Lost Cherry. I love it even though I know I don’t need the set…
What a nice thought !
I haven’t smelled Lost Cherry or F F. That set sounds nice
“Smelling good” points to you, nevertheless!
Thank you
A sunny Saturday morning! Yay, I last saw a bit of sun last Sunday morning. It was sunny for a while yesterday, but I was in the office, so it’s not the same.
I’ve got a hair appointment this morning. They come around fast, but I’m determined to continue the battle not to see my grey hair for a few years yet, although it’s hard to avoid seeing the regrowth after a couple of weeks.
I went through the list on Fragrantica and found that I don’t have a single perfume with magnolia notes, not even a sample. I do have Divine from Divine, which is a fabulous floral.
I have liked all of the Divine perfumes I’ve sampled, and the original Divine, is, well, you know. 🙂
Divine EdP is gorgeous. 😍
I’m claiming lots of points for today’s cp: SOTD is L’Occitane Magnolia & Mure (lots of yummy blackberry in this one) layered over various magnolia blossom b&b products, a tshirt from a long ago trip to Williamsburg, VA with a lovely magnolia blossom on the front, and on our way to a folkfest this weekend in WI near madtowngirl 👋 we took a long detour down county roads and went thru a tiny town named . . . Magnolia!
Looking forward to tonight’s program followed by a campfire sing-a-long and s’mores. Happy weekend to all !
Sounds like you have a magnolia filled weekend ahead! 😉
Oh, I think you win this cp!
Love this!
The heat wave has broken, yippee! But it still feels plenty warm to me this afternoon. Productive afternoon today; I made a few phone calls that I had been putting off. Have to make a couple more but those can wait until Monday.
SOTD = Atelier Cologne Sud Magnolia, from the sample stash. It turns out that I have 2 samples of this one. The spray sample I got ages ago from Sephora may have turned, since I am smelling a distinct celery note when I first spray it. However, the second sample I have courtesy of Lisa D is just fine.
Yay for being productive!
I put off making phone calls until the last minute. I don’t know why.
I just don’t like making phone calls. I’d rather go to the dentist!
Hey now! Let’s not get carried away!🤣
😀
Do you like Sud Magnolia?
As to making the phone calls – super!
I am thinking that Sud Magnolia isn’t my jam. It seems to be aquatic on me, which is something I tend to avoid.
Glad I got some of those calls done today!
SOTD = Tom Ford Eau de Vert Boheme
Watery florals meh but it has magnolia so I am taking credit. At least the bottle is beautiful but of course not as beautiful as Greenie!

For summer Friday, I left work just a little after 2pm and I am off on Monday as well! I went to Saks as I was too lazy to walk over to Bergdorfs. Saks reorganized the beauty floor again … not so radically, just the middle part and it seems like they added more perfumes. Everyone other than Vilhelm was tight-fisted with samples. Vilhelm gave me a sample of London Funk but I haven’t tried it yet. I really wanted to try the 2 new Guerlains but they will not be available until closer to the end of September 😭.
The tight fisted says are missing out on some future sales.
For sure! And what’s up with that, anyway? It’s not like it comes out of their pocketbook..!
I had one at Macy’s tell me they don’t randomly give them out anymore because of people selling them.
Omg! How low can people go? Geez, never even thought of that…🙄
“Watery florals” sounds like something I am more than happy to miss out on.
Phooey on the tight-fisted SA’s!
No points for me.
I’m back from Sephora and sampled Kayali Lovefest Burning Cherry. It’s pretty ok. The Cherry starts out cough syrupy but ends up turning into a Jergens Cherry almond lotion. ( calling cm8!)
It sits close to the skin.
Ooooooof. Cherry cough syrup is a big old NOPE for me! Thanks for the perfume intel.
I’ve been in FM Eau de Magnolia today, and I have to agree with some of the reviewers on Fragrantica…it’s just a hair too masculine for me, but I’m glad I dug around in my samples and tried it!
Commenting and running cause my pizza will be ready soon and The Black Phone is queued up for Friday night movie. I’m in my favorite magnolia perfume and the one that smells the most photorealistic to me, Grandiflora’s Magnolia Grandiflora Sandrine. I swapped away the Michel version last swap meet because I just find the Sandrine perfectly fulfills my magnolia needs.
You smell amazing!
Thanks! You smell great yourself!
