Tuesday scent of the day 9/14

Posted by Robin on 14 September 2021 255 Comments

It’s Tuesday. A quick reminder that the swapmeet will start this coming Saturday! What fragrance are you wearing?

I’m in Hermès Myrrhe Églantine for the Elvis Costello version of A Good Year for the Roses.* It was included on his country-covers album Almost Blue in 1981.

Reminder: 9/17 is International Country Music Day…

Friday scent of the day 9/10

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.

Wednesday scent of the day 9/8

Posted by Robin on 8 September 2021 220 Comments

It’s Hump Day, Star Trek Day and International Literacy Day. What fragrance are you wearing?

I’m in mixed Merveilles (Eau Claire des Merveilles layered over Eau des Merveilles) and I’m off on a short family visit, again — posting will probably be light over the next few days.

Reminder: 9/10 is Karl Lagerfeld’s birthday…
