Perfumistas 14: Perfumery High and Low. (Warning: this thread sabotages credit cards)

[OCSockOrphanage]

Here we go again... A merry whirl of things of things that smell delicious (and sometimes not).

Some unusual lavender Judy

MrsL your envelope arrived open, avec letter but sans other things

library of fragrance? TKMaxx had Honeysuckle, and Peony in store a few weeks ago.

Oh no Pest . Will get some more out to you at the weekend.

Library of fragrance honeysuckle is very pleasant and quite realistic. Linear though, and fleeting on me. Can’t really complain for the £4 it cost though

Search by note at Allbeauty (just use the search box, can cope with multiple notes) has come up with a Guerlain chypre for honeysuckle and vetiver

Thanks for all the lavender suggestions. I might take a punt on Luca’s pick. I can always use it as pillow spray...

oh, i have that one pest it's rather lovely! I blind bought it and im glad i did, in fact i wore it just yesterday

L’Artisan Bucoliques de Provance, you say MrsL it’s fabulous. It is all about the lavender and the iris. Love it.[I can’t sleep]

Jicky is another lavender heavy Guerlain, although a very gentlemanly lavender if that's an issue.

Ugh.

Another rubbish nights sleep.

Lots of errands to run today.

Sotd mrsgloss indoors.

Jicky - that's an interesting one. Wish you got buy Guerlains in 10ml bottles.

SotD is Silences.

I have a small Jicky decant (not much left in it, sadly) but the only Guerlain I have worn seriously is Chamade, and that was several decades back. My mum wears Mitsouko, so I never would.

MrsR, my Poundland had copious amounts of Girl, and I still have one left, if you'd like it, PM your address.

DH did not like Dandelion & Fig the silly old fool. Wondering about one of the Heeley's for today and minded to choose Cuir Pleine Fleur as a variation from the loveliness that is Feu Follet.

I have recovered from the cobwebbing frenzy, and the Zoflora has been returned to the cupboard, so the spiders can resume work in safety, for a while.

SockJr has his last Physics A level exam today... yippee!

SOTD IS ELDO Afternoon of a Faun. I thought this was rather odd when I first bought it, but have persevered and now enjoy it as still slightly odd but also rather lovely, soapy-yet-spicy, shapeshifting oddness. Selling it, aren't I?

Anyway, just checking in from under a pile of exam papers and, tbh, a cloud of brexit-related anxiety which is most unlike me. I'm going to get my head down for the next couple of days and try to plough through, so if you see me on here, yell at me and tell me firmly to bugger off.

Mrs Lucas a good honeysuckle is Annick Goutals Le Chevrefeuille. I also get quite a bit of honeysuckle from Fleur du matin.
I’ve absolutely no idea about lavender but do know it’s in my This Works sleep spray ( which is brilliant ).
Ocsock Thank you for the Perfumista recommendation. I have had a lovely trawl through the website this morning. Floofy that would be fantastic. Can I send you some samples in return?
Blue can you please pm me your address again?
I picked up my Tokyo milk and Caron sample box from Tk Maxx yesterday.
Now which one shall I try?

Pmed you sock x

I've been using that sleep spray...cant say it works for me :(

Thanks teta will PM you x

SOTD is L’Artisan Skin on Skin. I now have a FB coming to me, last of my sample. Life is good

Ugh

School music concert tonight

Next eau nude as it'll be hot and humid in the hall

SotD Fleurs de Sel again. Lasted ages, very happy with my new purchase!

SOTD Heeley Hippie Rose.

MrsR I love that This Works sleep spray, but am currently using a bog standar Boots lavender one, because poor. The TW one works so, so much better and is top of my list to buy when DP gets paid.

Its a free sample I got judy...its nice bit can't day it's helped me sleep!

998 messages... we need a new thread!

And I can still smell Cuir Pleine Fleur, as a very pretty soft floral now, no leather left, from this morning's spray. So some Heeley's do last, but it's in the lap of the gods ..........
