It’s Tuesday and National Bittersweet Chocolate Day. What fragrance are you wearing?
I’m running down my favorite colors for the rest of the week, starting with blue. Fragrance today is Comptoir Sud Pacifique Aqua Motu (which is really maybe more of a blue / green.) Tea at the moment, to match, is a Jin Xuan oolong.
Reminder: 1/13 will be True Colors Friday…
It’s Monday and National Apricot Day. Birthdays: Carrie Chapman Catt, Simone de Beauvoir, Joan Baez. What fragrance are you wearing?
I’m taking points for apricot, in Ormonde Jayne Osmanthus.

It’s the first Friday of 2023, plus Three Kings Day. RIP Fay Weldon. Our community project for today: wear a fragrance to match Viva Magenta, Pantone’s color of the year for 2023.
Viva Magenta is brave and fearless, and a pulsating color whose exuberance promotes a joyous and optimistic celebration, writing a new narrative. [It] is powerful and empowering. It is a new animated red that revels in pure joy, encouraging experimentation and self-expression without restraint, an electrifying, and a boundaryless shade that is manifesting as a stand-out statement.
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 taking points for the cherry cough syrup + raspberry macaron in Guerlain La Petite Robe Noire Black Perfecto…
Happy Almost-Friday! It’s also Twelfth Night, National Bird Day, George Washington Carver Day and Alvin Ailey’s birthday. What fragrance are you wearing?
I’m taking points in Arielle Shoshana Saturday. (I’m also very behind, but hope to read all of yesterday’s comments by the end of today.)
Reminder: on 1/6, wear a fragrance to match Viva Magenta, Pantone’s color of the year for 2023…
Hump Day and the 11th day of Christmas (pipers piping), plus World Braille Day. Birthdays: Sir Isaac Newton and Michael Stipe. Don’t forget that Donatella is dropping by today! What fragrance are you wearing?
I am commando for a (potentially unpleasant, so apologies in advance if I disappear this afternoon) trip to the dentist. I will probably ignore the project and put on Diptyque Tam Dao as soon as I get back.
