Oh, I hope you like it :)

TracyBeakerSoYeah · 07/04/2019 16:24

Thanks Maud I've just had a quick look at the Bloom website.......it's perfume heaven, but hell for my purseSmile

Has anyone tried the most recent Perfume Society box, based on new launches? I'm very tempted.

Judystilldreamsofhorses · 07/04/2019 19:15

SOTD Byredo Bibliotheque. Been out for a belated mother’s day lunch with MIL. I braved bare ankles, but it was freezing. I am so fed up of being cold all the time. tracy 18 degrees is considered a heatwave here, in July.

Morning all. It appears to be Monday again. Not fond of these mornings when I have to leave for work with everyone else in my household still snoozing in their beds! Still I have next week off so shouldn't complain too much...probably Grin

SOTD is Avignon. Churchy stone, dusty velvet and incense, highly suitable for a gloomy, foggy morning.

I'm going to the gym today (first time in 25 years....)
Is perfume a no no?

Lotsofpots · 08/04/2019 08:58

chevvy anything that makes the gym more bearable would be my approach.
Probably not the most motivating reply...

keenwasalad · 08/04/2019 08:59

Morning all. SOTD is Kilian - forbidden games which I'm not that keen on and was a real regret buy. So I'm trying to use it all up. It's not unpleasant as such, just not my thing!

Nerolia bianca for hot yoga. I’m looking forward to it as it’s foggy and chilly here. Dd1 starts lambing today🐑. Hope it’s warm in the lambing shed as she has to try and revise in between lambs.

67chevvyimpala · 08/04/2019 09:54

I've gone for sexiest scent

CountFosco · 08/04/2019 12:33

SotD MH Fleurs de Sel. Counting down the minute till the end of the day so I can watch Fleabag.

MotherOfDragonite · 08/04/2019 17:50

SOTD was Gold by Commodity. I reach for it quite a bit on office days because it's so inoffensive...

I have ordered loads of samples of various things that I want to try; I've gone a bit crazy! But it's really impossible to find out what I like without trying, and with the little ones it's hard to get out and try things often in shops...

cantbelievemyeyes · 08/04/2019 18:00

I always wear perfume for the gym chevvy, mainly cheapie fresh type things. I keep the good stuff for for post shower.

SOTD has been Anima Vinci Sesame Chan. Free sample from Les Senteurs- a lovely calming vetiver/ cedar with nutty gingery notes. A bit different and really enjoyable!

67chevvyimpala · 08/04/2019 18:06

I've got some new Avon bubble bath on the way which I'm looking forward to tonight

TracyBeakerSoYeah · 08/04/2019 18:12

SOTD is Liz Earle No9 which I got as a 10ml freebie when I bought No100.
Not keen on No9 as it smells like a blackcurrant cough sweet. However that is starting to fade I'm getting an earthy hedgey smell which will be the patchouli.

TracyBeakerSoYeah · 08/04/2019 18:16

What flavour have you got Chevvy? I like the Jasmine.
How was the gym & can you still walk?

MaudBaileysGreenTurban · 08/04/2019 18:23

I'm trying to persuade myself not to take a trip to Bloom tomorrow.

I'm not really succeeding...

TracyBeakerSoYeah · 08/04/2019 18:35

Go on Maud go for me Grin

TracyBeakerSoYeah · 08/04/2019 18:39

I need you to smell Zoologist Beaver, T-Rex, Elephant, Dodo & Camel for me!

67chevvyimpala · 08/04/2019 18:52

A new one called "goodnight sweetheart"
Very nice

teta · 08/04/2019 19:08

Yes please Maud can you test for me too?
I’ve only ever tried one Zoologist and I’m a very long way from Bloom.
Love the name Sesame Chan for a perfume. Nutty and gingery sounds delicious.
Dd is still not back from lambing. I don’t think she took any food so I hope they feed her regularly.

MaudBaileysGreenTurban · 08/04/2019 20:01

Oh, you've twisted my arm Grin
