Love Sex Goddess, MrsB.

SOTD is Chloe Love. Powder galore, soapy iris, faint violet, creamy heliotrope. So good.

Bran, Ciel looks interesting. Was it in Carrefour in France? I'm there now.

FannyBurney · 29/10/2018 16:49

I'm in Manifesto L'Elixir which I discovered recently from someone on here. Thank you whoever it was. Its a bit fresh and crisp when it goes on for me, but I love the way it settles down smoothly into vanilla and soft flowers

Manifesto L’Elixir is one of my favourite perfumes, Fanny. Lovely stuff!

namastayinbed · 29/10/2018 18:14

Thanks count - what a lovely surprise to come home to! Really wanted to try the Miller Harris one and love it.

MrsLucas · 29/10/2018 18:27

Welcome back MissB. We've all changed names multiple times so you'll need to identify us by our favourites Smile. Do tell us a bit more about your blog?

Had a lovely time yesterday in The Great Randello - it lasted all day, giving me a Ready Brek glow of sweet warmth with a hint of cigar smoke.

SotD is Who Knew?

SOTD is Tauerville Patch Flash. Still no heating here

MrsLucas · 30/10/2018 19:32

Bad timing Fennel. Brew Hope it's sorted soon.

@Mrs8 It's got a Mumsnet blogger badge so I think I can share it. I don't actually sell anything. it's www.iscentyouaday.com. Thank you!

MissBattleaxe · 31/10/2018 00:54

@MrsLucas last time I was here you were all lovely. I see nothing's changed.

MrsLucas · 31/10/2018 01:08

Thanks MissB - congratulations on your blog. How do you keep going?

Love your blog, MrsB.

FannyBurney · 31/10/2018 08:05

Sorry, MissB!

Lotsofpots · 31/10/2018 08:12

MissB I was reading your blog just yesterday before seeing you on this thread. I love it. You've reminded me I must follow you on insta.

Lotsofpots · 31/10/2018 08:18

My sister turns 30 in January and I'm thinking of getting her a 4160 Do What Andy Did set as an unusual way of commemorating the entire year. I was going to ask if I could do my own selection, as they mention this on the website. I'm struggling on one choice though - any advice?!
Was going for sexiest scent for april/may/June; rhubarb for jul/aug/sep; White Queen for either the start or the end of the year. What else?!

She's not as into overly sweet gourmands as I am, she loves Who Knew but I'm selfish and that's MINE. Off the top of my head I know she wears JM velvet rose oud and TF black orchid when the weather is cooler. Any ideas, you knowledgable lot? And feel free to suggest others I should consider instead of those I've posted above.

FannyBurney · 31/10/2018 08:26

Lotsofpots I like Killer Rose very much. It's a big, round, floral oriental. I get quite a geranium feeling from it.

UnnecessaryFennel · 31/10/2018 08:47

Hello MissBattleaxe, love your blog Smile

I am so behind on this thread, hope everyone's okay. Being back to work is killing me! SOTD is MMM Fireplace, yesterday was Mitsouko, and Monday was MH LDR. It is absolutely freezing here, so the big hitters are out in force.
