Wow...posh!
I've spent a lot on 2nd hand books today...on an unrelated note, how many bags of books is too many?
🙄😃❤

MrsMoggs · 14/07/2019 13:56

Copying Maud again in Rosee de Nuit as I liked her description very much. Other arm is in Feu de Follet - the opening strikes me as harsher than usual but that might just be the fumes from my fake tan. Blush

Happy hols Buffy!

Hope you are OK Teta - that sounds difficult?

That's quite a story Judy.

Workshop folks - has anyone got the energy to coordinate (have been locked in death battle with Local Authority over educational needs and am not sure I can face taking anything else on right now). Very happy to explain how we did it last time, and it wasn't onerous...I have no idea if Sarah Mc will be up for it, but she's always very helpful and positive. PM me if easier...

Having a think about carnation Jaime...

Herba Fresca is next Count - thanks for bringing it to consciousness.Smile

I went for avon soft musk body spray today.
Meh. Not as nice as the EdeT.

Judystilldreamsofhorses · 14/07/2019 18:41

SOTD Miu Miu.

maud that is properly fancy!

buffy if you PM me your address I can pop a wee bit in an atomiser for you. It won’t be a full decant, but hopefully enough to give you an idea if you like it.

SotD Fleur d'oranger baie rose. This has a slightly harsh note in the spring but smells much more floral in the heat. Plus cheap so can respeay with abandon.

MotherOfDragonite · 15/07/2019 07:33

SOTD yesterday was Scherzo.

I got my essay in by a whisker but I am not even sure if it was good enough to pass so now there is a long and stressful wait to find out :-( ... it was also DD's 6th birthday so I was also doing stuff with her obviously.

SOTD today is exhaustion. Actually, I might choose something and cheer myself up Smile

Iambuffy · 15/07/2019 13:41

Sotd extra sexiest scent on the planet ever

I've ordered a TF amber dupe from pp and 4160 are saving me a 30mls of amber woods :)

I'd offer to arrange the meet up at 4160 but would prob be useless as I dont know london at all!

Iambuffy · 15/07/2019 16:28

Oh gosh, I wasn't angling for a sample judy😁
Bless you, its kind of you to offer, but I really need to work through the ones I have:)❤
(Where stocks byredo btw??)
On that note, I only brought 3 samples on holiday with me...it's not enough!! 😖
Sigh.
Oh well, with the avon purse sprays I've ordered that'll be 5 new bottles in July....😂😂

Judystilldreamsofhorses · 15/07/2019 20:02

Are you sure, buffy? Space NK sell it, but it is no bother to do you a wee decant.

SOTD MMM Lazy Sunday.

Iambuffy · 15/07/2019 21:00

Oh, go on then you sausage 😁❤

Iambuffy · 15/07/2019 21:00

I may have just done another pp order....
Ooops

Judystilldreamsofhorses · 15/07/2019 22:26

Message me your address buffy, and I will try to do it and post it this week.

MotherOfDragonite · 16/07/2019 08:03

After saying I was exhausted, I fell asleep all day and woke up with a fever of 39! Weirdly all better today.

SOTD was Scherzo, which I'm very keen on again. I get a major oud note in wet and rainy weather, which I don't like so much, but it's lovely in any dry weather, hot or cold.

Iambuffy · 16/07/2019 08:27

Will do Judy. Might have to wait till I'm bsck from hols due to internet connection! X

Sotd today will be 4160 sexiest scent again.

I wish I'd brought more samples with me :(

Iambuffy · 16/07/2019 17:30

Glad you feel better mother

I've DABT.

Again.

😁

CountFosco · 16/07/2019 22:22

Tut tut Buffy. Clearly you'll have to tell us all about it.

Lovely Floofy parcel arrived today with some lovely treats. Think I'll be trying Iris Goddess tomorrow. Your package should arrive in the next day or so.

SotD Rose Silence.

Judystilldreamsofhorses · 17/07/2019 00:06

SOTD Diptyque Philosykos. I love this and should wear it more. I even have matching body lotion.

Iambuffy · 17/07/2019 19:34

I've gone amber mad at pp!

I will have SO many parcels waiting for me when I get home...

MaudBaileysGreenTurban · 17/07/2019 19:49

teta - thank you so much for your very very generous package which arrived today! I am bowled over by some of the goodies and can't wait to try them.

Have already had a spritz of Oranges en Fleurs and it is lovely, and will definitely be accompanying me on holiday next week. Thank you again; a really wonderful surprise after a long day at work Smile

MaudBaileysGreenTurban · 17/07/2019 19:51

Orangers Hmm

JaimeBronde · 17/07/2019 19:59

SOTD Eau Dynamisante. I love how nice & cold this feels in this muggy weather.
Quick question & may be a daft one.
When you do your decants for samples to send to each other, what do you use/recommend to do it with?

CountFosco · 17/07/2019 20:01

SotD Iris Goddess. A very fruity Iris, very blackcurrenty initially.

CountFosco · 17/07/2019 20:06

Sample bottles from Amazon.

Judystilldreamsofhorses · 17/07/2019 22:57

SOTD Chanel 19. I went for coffee (and obviously cake) with some of my ex students today, which was really nice. I love that they want to keep in touch after they graduate.

DP is away until Saturday, so cat-face and I are having a girls’ night in. She is furious that it’s lashing down, because she would rather be out killing things.

Glad you've received the package @MaudBaileysGreenTurban. I left it in my Mums hands as we set of for our holiday on Sunday. I hope it includes some perfumes you haven't tried before. The Houbigant perfume is beautiful and for some strange reason one I rarely wear.
I'm stuffed, I've just been out for the Korean specialty - fried chicken n beer! And last night we had some typical local dishes . Crispy fried squid and bits wrapped in a herbal leaf and dipped in a sauce plus a crispy shredded salad in a hot sauce atop crispy wonton skins.
I adore trying new food overseas.
Its also fascinating people watching as the Korean women are so very elegant and feminine.
Sotd is ormonde Jayne Frangipani .
