Monday scent of the day 4/19

Posted by Robin on 19 April 2021 230 Comments

Monday, Dutch-American Friendship Day and Bicycle Day. What fragrance are you wearing?

I’ve overslept again. I haven’t even had my tea yet. I am going to pick something from what ya’all are wearing.

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

Friday scent of the day 4/16

Posted by Robin on 16 April 2021 306 Comments

Hey, it’s Spring Clean Friday! (Also, World Voice Day and Wear Your Pajamas to Work Day.) Our community project for today: wear the perfect fragrance for doing household chores. Thanks go to LisaD for the suggestion!

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 the “what would I wear with a Tiara in April” approach, and I’m in a dab of vintage Jean Patou Joy…

Thursday scent of the day 4/15

Posted by Robin on 15 April 2021 127 Comments

Happy Almost Friday, happy World Art Day, happy National Anime Day and happy Universal Day of Culture! It’s also Leonardo da Vinci’s birthday, and if you’re in the US, it’s kinda/ sorta Tax Day (the tax filing date has been postponed to May 17, but if you pay estimated taxes, they’re still due today). What fragrance are you wearing?

So I can think of three basic ways to approach the right scent for a spring clean: wear something über sophisticated (and maybe a tiara) to elevate the task, wear something motivational to get you going, or wear something incredibly cheerful to keep your spirits up. Today, I’m taking the third path, in Diptyque Oyédo (although I also considered Ormonde Jayne Osmanthus).

Reminder: 4/16 will be Spring clean…

Tuesday scent of the day 4/13

It’s Tuesday, Thomas Jefferson Day, Eudora Welty’s birthday and Scrabble Day. Happy 75th to Al Green! What fragrance are you wearing?

I’m in Imaginary Authors Whiff of Waffle Cone, thanks to a kind reader. (It does not remind me of waffle cones, possibly because I have been eating the wrong waffle cones and need to get myself over to Salt & Straw.) Tea at the moment is Kusmi Tchaï of the Tiger.

Reminder: 4/16 will be Spring clean…
