Friday scent of the day 7/29

Posted by Robin on 29 July 2016 221 Comments

Pantone Limpet Shell and Peach Echo

Happy Huesday on Friday! Our community project for today (with apologies to the Pantone haters): wear a fragrance inspired by Limpet Shell (“A shade of aqua that leans toward the green family, Limpet Shell is clear, clean and defined. Suggestive of clarity and freshness, its crisp and modern influences evoke a deliberate, mindful tranquility.”) and/or Peach Echo (“The fashion and design communities, and consequently, consumers, have been in love with orange for several seasons. Coming to the fore this Spring is, Peach Echo, a shade that emanates friendlier qualities, evoking warmth and accessibility. It is an all-encompassing, tempered companion in the playful orange family.”) Huesday was suggested by TheGoddessRena and Olenska.

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 Bvlgari Eau Parfumée au Thé Bleu but I’m not entirely happy with my choice…

Donatella Versace for Givenchy

It’s Friday, finally! Our community project for today: we’re doing Flashback Friday — wear a fragrance you wore “back in the day”. I think this was suggested by Bee and MikasMinion?

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 Eau de Givenchy, which was my signature scent for some time in the 1980s. I think it is currently in the Les Mythiques collection but I have not smelled a recent version…

Nice, France, 2015

It’s Friday. Our community project for today: wear one of your “top 10 of summer” fragrances (unless it’s winter where you are, in which case wear one of your “top 10 of winter” scents).

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 lemon zest

Friday is here! Our community project for today: wear a citrus cologne, classic or modern.

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 Carthusia Mediterraneo (perfect for today’s “excessive heat warning”) over Tauer Perfumes Rose Delight Body Oil…

Pantone rabbit

Rabbit, rabbit, rabbit! Welcome to July, and hope everyone is having a lovely Friday so far. And, happy Canada Day! Our community project for today: wear a fragrance by Olivia Giacobetti, 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 doing a little Olivia Giacobetti catch up. I wore Diptyque Philosykos to bed last night, and this morning I’m in L’Artisan Safran Troublant…
