Happy Almost-Friday, and happy 78th to Paul McCartney. It’s also Waterloo Day (watch that earworm!!) and International Sushi Day and Autistic Pride Day. What fragrance are you wearing?

The destination: Greece. The weather: hot and sunny. The scent: Diptyque Philosykos.

Reminder: on 6/19, we’re doing Fantasy Vacation Friday…

Wednesday scent of the day 6/17

Hump Day, plus World Day to Combat Desertification and Drought. What fragrance are you wearing?

I am out of town today, on a quick family visit. I’m commando at the moment, and I probably won’t wear perfume until tonight, so I will check in later.

Reminder: on 6/19, we’re doing Fantasy Vacation Friday…

Tuesday scent of the day 6/16

Tuesday and Bloomsday (or at least the 2020 version, Zoomsday). Birthdays today: Geronimo, Adam Smith. What fragrance are you wearing?

Fantasy vacation: I’m on a bike and boat tour in the Netherlands. (I almost talked my husband into this last year, but then he got busy, and then other things happened, and well, you know how it goes.) I imagine I am commando during the day and at night I’m wearing a little pick-me-up that doesn’t disturb the other nice people on the boat, maybe Terre d’Hermès Eau Très Fraîche? But right now I am wearing Terre d’Hermès original.

Monday scent of the day 6/15

And *poof*, the weekend is over. By way of compensation, it’s Beer Day Britain, and perhaps a shade less helpful, Global Wind Day. What fragrance are you wearing?

I’m in Guerlain Terracotta Le Parfum, one of the gajillion perfumes mentioned on the weekend poll. I might wear it again on Friday for the community project.

Friday scent of the day 6/12

Posted by Robin on 12 June 2020 285 Comments

It’s Friday, and we’re in the garden! Our community project for today: wear a perfume that was inspired by a particular garden, or that reminds you of a particular garden, or that just smells like a garden in general.

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 under the linden tree in the garden at the Grand Chalet de Rossinière, in Astier de Villatte Grand Chalet…
