Friday scent of the day 6/24

Posted by Robin on 24 June 2016 344 Comments

Pantone Green Orange

Friday! And we’re doing (ironically, sorry, and our usual prohibition on political discussion stands) A House Divided. Our community project for today: wear two fragrances from the same house, but don’t layer (one on each wrist, or whatever). Thanks to Lisa D for the suggestion!

I’m wearing Parfum d’Empire Azemour Les Orangers and Parfum d’Empire Corsica Furiosa. They wear quite nicely together…

Pantone colors of the year 2016

Friday is here! Our community project for today: wear a fragrance by Kenzo, 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 am wearing Kenzo Air. It’s the only Kenzo I own in a full bottle since I gave away my bottle of Kenzo Amour Le Parfum…

Friday scent of the day 6/10

Pantone blue

A quick PSA: there are still items up for grabs in the Freebiemeet! And do join us tomorrow for the 2016 Summer Reading poll.

Happy Fake it Friday! Our community project for today: wear a cheaper alternative (it can be anything: a different fragrance, an essential oil, layered products, a combination of perfume and body products) to a more expensive perfume. Thank you to Hajusuuri for the suggestion!

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.

My easy-peasy choice: I’m wearing Prada Infusion d’Iris Absolue (found online today for about $40 for 50 ml, admittedly at a store I’m not familiar with), which you really ought to at least try before you shell out for Chanel 28 La Pausa ($160 for 75 ml). They aren’t exact dupes, but I don’t really regret the Chanel while I’ve got the Prada. Plus, the Prada lasts much longer on skin…

Friday scent of the day 6/3

Lime Jelly Fruit Slices

Happy Leap of Faith Friday! Our community project for today: wear a scent you’ve never worn before with bonus points for a scent you haven’t read about and don’t know the notes for. Thanks to Eleebelle for the suggestion.

I’ve just put on 4160Tuesdays Invisible Ben. So far, it’s heavy on the citrus — it smells like a cross between lime candy and some sort of rum drink with lime. Very cheerful, so I lucked out because it’s gloomy and raining here today.

Reminder: 6/10 will be Fake it Friday…

Alberto Morillas

Friday, at last, and if you’re in the US, almost Memorial Day weekend. I’m sure some of you are starting early.

Our community project for today: wear a fragrance by Alberto Morillas, 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 wearing Le Labo Tubereuse 40. What little I have is almost gone. If I could afford it, I’d buy more…
