Friday scent of the day 9/2

Posted by Robin on 2 September 2016 235 Comments

apple-trio-s

Happy Friday! Our community project for today: how far does the apple fall from the tree? Wear a pillar fragrance on one arm, and one of its flankers on the other. Hat tip to Happy888cat for the idea!

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 went with an apple pretty close to the tree: I’m wearing Prada Infusion d’Iris on one arm (yum!), and Infusion d’Iris Absolue on the other (yum +1)…

Mo'ne Davis and Grace Coddington for Calvin Klein

Hey, it’s finally Friday! Plus, happy Women’s Equality Day. Our community project for today: wear a fragrance by Calvin Klein, 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 a dab of Calvin Klein Obsession. The temperature is creeping up again here, so a dab is all I will risk, plus, I like Obsession much better at low levels…

Marni Fall Winter 2015 2016

TGIF, happy World Humanitarian Day and happy Perfect Friday! Our community project for today: wear a fragrance that is nearly perfect, and tell us how you would change it (or, layer it!) to make it completely perfect.

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 Marni, the original signature version. Marni is pretty much perfect for a no-brainer fragrance, but I liked it better layered with Marni Rose, and I’ve discovered this summer that I like it even better than that layered over Tauer Rose Delight body oil. I never did see the Marni Spice version, did anyone here ever try it?

Reminder: on 8/26, wear a fragrance by Calvin Klein, if you have one…

Happy Friday, and happy World Elephant Day! Our community project for today is fabulous but fleeting: wear a perfume you love even though it doesn’t last as long as it should. Today’s project was suggested by Mariann.

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 still on vacation, and I packed badly — I’m failing the Friday project for the second week in a row. I’m wearing Estee Lauder Bronze Goddess whipped body cream, which will surely last until I go swimming, and possibly last even through that. I will do better next week…

Friday, yay! Our community project for today: wear a fragrance from perfumer Francis Kurkdjian, 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 meant to wear Maison Francis Kurkdjian Pluriel…
