Friday scent of the day 2/13

Posted by Robin on 13 February 2015 195 Comments

Guerlain Shalimar, Baccarat limited edition collector

Happy Guerlain Day! Our community project for today: wear something by Guerlain. We already did this in summer, now we’re doing it again for winter (or, for some of you, the other way around).

As always, do chime in even if you’re not wearing Guerlain.

I’m wearing a wee drop of vintage Shalimar extrait. But not, alas, from that bottle. I have a tiny sample and wear it a drop at a time…

Friday scent of the day 2/6

grapefruit

Happy Friday, and happy Grapefruit Month! Our community project for today: wear a fragrance with grapefruit; extra credit if Grapefruit (or Pamplemousse or Pomelo or whatever) is in the name of the scent.

I’m wearing the bright and cheerful Dawn Spencer Hurwitz Pamplemousse. Has anyone ever bought a scented body lotion from DSH, and if so, what did you think?

Reminder: this Sunday (2/8), we’re celebrating this blog’s 10th birthday…

Tom Ford Lips Boys banner

Happy Oud Friday! Our community project for today: wear an oud fragrance.

As always, do chime in even if you’re not participating in the community project.

I was going to wear Yves Saint Laurent M7, the granddaddy of them all,* but I couldn’t find mine so I’m in the next closest thing, Tom Ford Oud Wood.

Reminder: next Friday, 2/6, we’re celebrating National Grapefruit month…

tea and cake

Happy Layered Friday! Our community project for today: layer two or more fragrances, or layer fragrance(s) with a scented body product.

It’s not what I had planned, but I’m wearing i Profumi di Firenze Ambra del Nepal (which I’d been thinking about after yesterday’s incense post) over Bliss Vanilla + Bergamot Body Butter. I smell delicious.

Reminder: next Friday, 1/30, will be Oud Friday…

Friday scent of the day 1/16

Prada grumpy cat

Happy Friday! Our community project for today: wear a fragrance from Prada or perfumer Daniela Andrier. What did you choose?

As always, do chime in even if you’re not participating in the community project.

I’m wearing Prada L’Eau Ambrée. This is a great no-brainer fragrance (and a good layering scent) and I don’t know why I don’t wear it more often…
