Parcel sent teta x

Benjispruce2 · 28/09/2020 14:37

Negative covid test for DDSmile. SOTD Cristalle.

yoikes · 28/09/2020 14:44

Yay!

Judystilldreamsofhorses · 28/09/2020 15:25

I find you need to give them a good burn, or they can tunnel, yoikes.

Good news, benji - did you namechange? I am losing track.

SOTD Black Opium again, I do like this when it gets colder.

DAGT and blind bought Aura by Mugler. Im beyond explaining why i have so many to people, I LIKE THEM and also, youre never too fat for perfume whereas for everything else, well, im rather ont he matronly side

yoikes · 28/09/2020 18:24

Haha!
Me too one
Matronly is definitely the word for me 😁
I'm going to have a shower later and scent up...hmm...decisions decisions...

FloraMacDonald · 29/09/2020 12:05

In my head I'm a skinny 20 year old with beautiful hair, skin etc. In the mirror I am not. Sad
SOTD Au Coeur du Desert

FloraMacDonald · 29/09/2020 15:13

One remember you don't need to be slim for handbags, either. Grin

FloofyAndYetFragrant · 29/09/2020 15:42

I would have said the same for shoes but extremely annoyingly, my feet have got smaller now I've lost weight - how?! How can feet shrink? They definitely have though. Luckily I can put insoles in but I still don't understand it Confused

There is an Alien flanker I like one but I can't remember which! I think it's in my Winter perfume box which is very soon going to be dragged out of the wardrobe...

SOTD is Beige again. Rubbish name for a perfume Grin but I love this so much. I borrowed DD's hoodie before and she said it smelt nice. (We won't talk about the time I borrowed a hoodie off the hall peg thinking it was DD's and then realised I had been walking round in DSs Call of Duty hoodie Blush I bet that smelt nice when he wore it next too Grin

Shrillharridan · 29/09/2020 19:52

Ffs! I've been locked out of mn all day and have had to re- register.
So...this is my new nn! (Twirls)
its yoikes btw

Lotsofpots · 29/09/2020 20:04

SOTD was sexiest scent.
Went to TK Maxx today. No perfume Bargains but some aromatherapy associates bath oils and body wash.

Judystilldreamsofhorses · 29/09/2020 23:14

SOTD FM Hiver. I love Aromatherapy Associates, lots. I am going for a flu jab at Boots tomorrow, TKM is next door, so I might pop in. I haven’t really been in shops since March other than Boots/food!

Hello. Hurrah for the boosh @Shrillharridan (haven’t been around for a few days just catching up). I’m rewatching black books. Schitts creek what won all those awards? Didn’t laugh once. I got a load of natural incense off Etsy. Working out what to do with palo Santo.

teta · 30/09/2020 09:31

Hi all. For some reason my phone hates MN at the moment. I can't open any thread or anything, or my messages. So I'm back on the app.
@Yoikes I've found my Tam Dao. I couldn't remember where I'd put it and had to hunt out my winter perfumes. So I will send today. Do you like Samsara and other Sandalwood's? I have a few drops of an old bottle left.
Sotd is Wrappings. I feel like I've come home ... It's bloody freezing here today. I'm putting all my summer ones away.😢

Shrillharridan · 30/09/2020 09:52

Yes I do :)

FloofyAndYetFragrant · 30/09/2020 11:21

Oooh I love incense @PearsMorgan, especially Japanese.

@OneNightTimeMenaceStrikesBack your Jersey has been sent - foolishly I entrusted the sending to DD who sent it signed for, I know that's really annoying if you're not home to get it! Also our post is taking ages here at the moment (10 days for a first class letter!) hopefully it will turn up at some point...

SOTD Beige. Of course. And heated cat. My cat is sitting on my water bottle which is on my chest. I'm having to stretch my arms around her to type this HmmGrin

OneNightTimeMenaceStrikesBack · 30/09/2020 12:18

floofy it arrived safe and sound this morning! have yet to try it as i already have perfume on so will try it when im scent free. thank you once again Thanks

FloraMacDonald · 30/09/2020 14:01

I'm trying to decide between Tauer Au Coeur du Desert & L'Air du Desert Maroccain for my imaginary shopping list - I'm not buying any perfume for a while. Sad I think it would be ACCD. Much as I adore them both, I don't think there's room on even an imaginary shopping list for both of them!

Shrillharridan · 30/09/2020 19:11

I think ACDD would pip LADDM for me too flora

Sotd was pp by the fireplace

teta · 30/09/2020 20:32

@Shrillharridan I posted your perfume. I think I forgot to put a name on the envelope though 🙄 - First class signed for.

teta · 30/09/2020 20:36

Does anyone else rearrange their perfume wardrobe on Fragantica every season?

Or is it just me?
Goodness me .... I've just watched the last episode of Us on iPlayer ... and was in floods of tears 😭. It had such a rubbish beginning as well.

Shrillharridan · 30/09/2020 20:50

I'm re watching "staged" on netflix as it has extra content

Shrillharridan · 30/09/2020 20:52

I'm fed up of MS teams meetings.
Nearly 2 hours today and its led to scheduling another bloody one. Ffs.
I am fed up. So stressed with mum and her move I think I'm having an ibs flare up 😕

teta · 30/09/2020 21:25

New thread - 'perfumistas in autumn' as above. But I've accidentally said it's thread 28 instead of 27.
