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.

pantone 2017 greenery

Best Buy Friday is here! (And you’ll all be so thrilled to hear that Pantone has announced the color of the year for 2017: Greenery.*) Our community project for today: wear your favorite fragrance purchase of 2016. If you didn’t buy anything this year, pick a favorite from a prior year.

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.

Everything I bought this year was something I really wanted, so I can’t seem to pick a favorite. My hand went for the Hermès Eau de Néroli Doré, so that’s what I’m wearing.

Reminder: on 12/16, wear a sandalwood fragrance, 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 sure I will not be the only one in the original Bottega Veneta.

Reminder: 12/9 will be Best Buy Friday…

Carnation Kaleidoscope

Happy Black Friday / Buy Nothing Day! Be careful out there. And happy Cheap Thrills Friday. Our community project for today: wear something that costs $50 or below, double bonus points if it costs $25 or below. No points for wearing something expensive that you bought cheaply via a sample or decant or somesuch! We’re trying to find real bargains here.

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 a dab of Old Spice, the original. Double bonus points for me — you can get 125 ml of the Classic Cologne for less than $15…

Marni Kids

Hey, it’s No Brainer Friday! Our community project for today: wear one of your seasonal “no brainer / go to” fragrances. Thanks to SheriG 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 often have a little group of no brainer fragrances at the front of my cabinet or on a shelf, but the weather is so back-and-forth lately that I’ve never really pulled together a final set for fall and early winter. Still, my hand went right for Marni, so that’s what I’m wearing…
