Tuesday scent of the day 7/6

Posted by Robin on 6 July 2021 162 Comments

It’s Tuesday and National Fried Chicken Day. Birthdays: Frida Kahlo, Hilary Mantel. What fragrance are you wearing?

I’m in Berdoues Assam of India for today’s heat advisory (we’re expecting heat index values between 100 to 104). Tea at the moment is an iced latte with a bit of nutmeg.

Reminder: on 7/9 we’re honoring Ice Cream month…

Friday scent of the day 7/2

Posted by Robin on 2 July 2021 212 Comments

It’s the first Friday in July (plus World UFO Day), and Donatella will be dropping by in just a bit for the damage poll. Our community project for today: wear one of your recent purchases, tell us why you bought it and whether or not you have any regrets.

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 hoping Donatella will forgive me for buying nothing so far this year. I’m wearing the last fragrance I bought, Maya Njie Vanilj. I bought it because Jessica liked it (and mentioned the cardamom in her review). Then people kept talking about it in the comments, and, bonus, it was available in a 7.5 ml travel size for $30. My only regret is that I have not yet tried any of her other fragrances…

Thursday scent of the day 7/1

Posted by Robin on 1 July 2021 233 Comments

Rabbit, rabbit, rabbit! Happy Almost-Friday, happy International Reggae Day, and welcome to July. It’s also Estée Lauder’s birthday…and if you are so inclined, do wear an Estée Lauder fragrance in her honor, if you have one. (And thanks to whomever suggested we do a group project for her birthday — do raise your hand and take credit because I’m afraid I’ve forgotten.) What fragrance are you wearing?

I’m in Estée Lauder Sensuous Nude.

Reminder: on 7/2, Donatella will be dropping by for the damage poll, so wear one of your recent purchase…

Wednesday scent of the day 6/30

It’s Hump Day and the end of June. (Tomorrow, don’t forget to rabbit, plus we are doing a special Thursday project to honor Estée Lauder’s birthday…wear an Estée Lauder fragrance, if you have one.) What fragrance are you wearing?

One more day here with an excessive heat warning, then tomorrow it should cool, at least a bit. Meanwhile I’m in Hermès Eau de Néroli Doré.

Reminder: on 7/2, Donatella will be dropping by for the damage poll, so wear one of your recent purchases…
