Tuesday scent of the day 1/5

Posted by Robin on 5 January 2021 222 Comments

Tuesday, Twelfth Night + National Bird Day + Alvin Ailey’s birthday. What fragrance are you wearing?

I’m in Hermès Ambre Narguile, which I have not worn in ages, and I’m drinking a mix of half Numi Golden Chai, half Numi Chinese Breakfast. David Bowie apparently never drank tea, only coffee, so later today I’ll have a latte in his honor.

Friday scent of the day 1/1

Posted by Robin on 1 January 2021 281 Comments

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 slept quite late, sorry! I’m in Fendi Theorema, again. If 2021 is half as good as Theorema I’ll be satisfied.

Reminder: 1/8 is David Bowie’s birthday…

The last Hump Day of 2020. It’s also the sixth day of Christmas and the fifth day of Kwanzaa. (And, a quick PSA: our Aftelier giveaway is still open!) What fragrance are you wearing?

I’m in Strange Invisible Perfumes Tropical Vial. My ancient sample is a bit discolored but smells wonderful.
