Tuesday scent of the day 4/27

Posted by Robin on 27 April 2021 255 Comments

It’s the last Tuesday in April. Birthdays today: Mary Wollstonecraft, Samuel Morse, Ulysses Grant, Coretta Scott King. RIP Alber Elbaz and Hester Ford. What fragrance are you wearing?

I’m out of town for the week and my fragrance usage will be minimal. I did wear a dab of Diptyque Philosykos to bed last night.

Friday scent of the day 4/23

Posted by Robin on 23 April 2021 271 Comments

Happy Friday! It’s also World Book Day, St George’s Day, UN English Language Day and Shakespeare Day. (And the swapmeet is tomorrow.)

Reminder: April showers bring May flowers…

It’s Hump Day, plus National Tea Day in the UK. Happy 95th to Queen Elizabeth (and more birthdays: Charlotte Brontë, Iggy Pop). What fragrance are you wearing?

I’m wearing Chopard Néroli à la Cardamome du Guatemala, thanks to a kind reader. (And I nominate it for inclusion in Erin’s 5 perfumes: Great Moments in Top Notes.)

Reminder: on 4/23, wear one of your “top 10 of spring” fragrances…

It’s Tuesday, Banana Day and Weed Day. (A quick reminder that the swapmeet is coming up on Saturday.) What fragrance are you wearing?

I’m drinking a cup of Numi Aged Earl Grey with a pinch of Harney French Super Blue Lavender. Scent: Etro Shaal Nur.
