Thursday scent of the day 4/3

Posted by Robin on 3 April 2025 128 Comments

Happy Almost-Friday and happy National Chocolate Mousse Day! Birthdays: Washington Irving, Doris Day, Jane Goodall, Eddie Murphy. What fragrance are you wearing?

I’m in Hermès Eau Claire des Merveilles layered over Eau des Merveilles. Despite its name, Eau Claire moves Merveilles into soft focus.

Reminder: On 4/4, wear a perfume that makes you think of clouds, fog, mist or haze…

It’s Hump Day, International Children’s Book Day (aka Hans Christian Andersen’s birthday) and World Autism Awareness Day. Donatella will be stopping by tomorrow! What fragrance are you wearing?

I’m doing haze, in Diptyque Volutes.

Friday scent of the day 3/28

Happy Friday and National Black Forest Cake Day! And happy 39th to Lady Gaga! Our community project for today: wear one of Lady Gaga’s fragrances, if you have one, or scent a Lady Gaga song, or wear any fragrance that you think fits either Lady Gaga or the perfume name “Fame”.

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.

For Lady Gaga singing Cole Porter’s Night and Day with Tony Bennett on the 2021 album Love for Sale (and since Glannys says she once wore it) I’m in Yves Saint Laurent Paris…

Thursday scent of the day 3/27

Happy Almost-Friday and happy International Whisk(e)y Day! Also, World Theatre Day. Birthdays: Edward Steichen, Ben Webster and Sarah Vaughan. What fragrance are you wearing?

So far I have been unable to find either Eau de Gaga or Fame, although I’m fairly sure I have them somewhere. So today I’m in Mugler Womanity,* which Lady Gaga apparently wore at some point. (And in case it helps anybody, we did a poll on slutty perfumes in Lady Gaga’s honor back in 2012, and if you need some extra reading, try Is Lady Gaga a feminist icon? at The Guardian.)

Reminder: 3/28 is Lady Gaga’s birthday…
