Friday scent of the day 6/9

Posted by Robin on 9 June 2017 385 Comments

passion fruit

Happy Fruity Friday! Our community project for today (a repeat from 2014): wear something fruity. It doesn’t have to be a fruity floral, just something with plenty of fruit.

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 shockingly fruity in Arielle Shoshana Eau de Parfum.

Reminder: 6/16 will be Oddball Friday…

Friday scent of the day 6/2

Hey, it’s Antoine Friday! Our community project for today: wear a fragrance by perfumer Antoine Lie or Antoine Maisondieu, 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.

Me: double points, for Etat Libre d’Orange Rossy de Palma Eau de Protection (and I ought to get extra credit given how long it took me to find my sample), by both Antoines.

Reminder: 6/9 will be Fruity Friday…

Hermès Objects 2017

Shhhh — it’s Under The Radar Friday! Our community project for today: wear a fragrance with minimal (or no) sillage, or something you consider a “skin scent”. Thanks to Hajusuuri for the suggestion. (And a quick PSA: the Etat Libre d’Orange giveaway is still open!)

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 (quietly) wearing two sprays of Hermès Le Jardin de Monsieur Li…

Friday scent of the day 5/19

Pantone Greenery

Happy Huesday on Friday! Our community project for today: wear a fragrance inspired by Pantone’s Color of the Year for 2017, Greenery. You do not have to wear a green fragrance — be as creative as you like with the theme! “Greenery is a fresh and zesty yellow-green shade that evokes the first days of spring when nature’s greens revive, restore and renew. Illustrative of flourishing foliage and the lushness of the great outdoors, the fortifying attributes of Greenery signals consumers to take a deep breath, oxygenate and reinvigorate.”

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 the murky green L’Eau de L’Artisan. It is probably more of a summer green than a spring green, but that will work because we’re expecting July weather today…

Friday scent of the day 5/12

Calvin Klein Buck Block sneaker

Happy Lessons Learned Friday! (And, International Nurses Day.) Our community project for today: wear a fragrance that taught you something you didn’t know about yourself, about fragrance, anything! Thanks to Floragal 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.

I’m wearing Calvin Klein CK One, the fragrance that helped me figure out (eventually), that I needn’t worry about gender in fragrance. I can’t remember now if my first masculine purchase was Guerlain Vetiver or Christian Dior Eau Sauvage, but either way, I wouldn’t likely have gotten there without good old CK One…
