It’s Tuesday, and in the US, Election Day. Do vote, if you haven’t already. What fragrance are you wearing?

Me: staying reasonably chill, so far, in Comme des Garçons Ouarzazate. Tea at the moment is a latte from a local shop, incense is Fred Soll piñon.

Friday scent of the day 10/30

Posted by Robin on 30 October 2020 277 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.

It’s still rainy and grey and generally dismal here, so I’m back to my Monday choice for happiness and good cheer, Aftelier Candide…
