I really admire Andy tauer but some of his creations sound hard work tbh... I adore LADDM and ACDD and incense extreme. All glorious.
I've tried mmm replica coffee break - I can't smell any coffee!!! Just lavender. How odd.
Whispers in the library is nice but I'm struggling to understand why its named thus? Its pleasant enough though.
I've spent the morning cleaning and washing so am now in bed watching crappy tv.

SOTD FM Noir Epices. Yesterday was L’Air de Rien.

teta, I wish I had a FB. I too made a sample last forever!

PearsMorgan · 16/11/2020 08:29

SOTD Guerlain aa ginger piccante

Yesterday Jo Loves Pomelo: lovely but grapefruit only lasted an hour or so. Well balanced vetiver cologne underneath (quite like Guerlain?)

Judystilldreamsofhorses · 16/11/2020 11:58

SOTD Byredo Bibliotheque.

Shrillharridan · 16/11/2020 13:37

Sotd mmm replica whispers in the library

teta · 16/11/2020 14:49

My Sotd is Amouage Jubilation in the interest of thorough research. All the Amouage seem to dry down to a heavy sweet base on my skin, apart from the Gold which feels airy and light. I think I much prefer Puredistance White, which has been likened to Amouage Lyric on Fragrantica.

@Judystilldreamsofhorses do you think Andy Tauer sells any bottles of Carillon pour un ange 😂? I’m now on my second sample.

teta possibly not - I noticed Les Senteurs are discontinuing it. Grin

Judystilldreamsofhorses · 16/11/2020 16:24

I need another sample, teta!

riotlady · 16/11/2020 16:56

SOTD is Shalimar, my sample arrived in the post today. Omg I love it- I feel like I can smell the progression through the notes much more distinctly than I have with other perfumes so far and it’s a wild ride!

KateMAB · 16/11/2020 18:13

Over the weekend I've been wearing L'air du désert marocain and annick goutal vétiver. I really like both.
So far ACDD has been DH's (and my) favourite.

KateMAB · 16/11/2020 18:15

Today is Margiela sailing day. Not sure about it though

Shrillharridan · 17/11/2020 11:10

Sotd ACDD

KaliforniaDreamz · 17/11/2020 11:30

Hello friends,
Bit fed up today but SOTD Dance by Miller Harris is cheering me slightly. Think hairspray mixed with Tes Tonique.

Sotd Jenny Glow C1X(Chanel 19)

Anyone know where can i get this in UK? i can only find the Irish site and postage is a lot. thanks x

teta · 17/11/2020 12:26

Sotd started off with Ffern Summer 19 and then my Pp Nutmeg & Ginger arrived . So now I have that on as well. I think the oil is better than the spray. It does smell quite similar to the original.
@KaliforniaDreamz it doesn't seem to be available in the UK. Maybe due to legal rulings as Chanel are very protective of their products.
Having popped my cherry with pp I have now orders Jenny Glow wood sage & sea salt. It's £5.00 and free delivery from Notino today.

Teta welcome to the dark side!

I am not perusing Notino.... they all sound nice.

KaliforniaDreamz · 17/11/2020 12:57

teta · 17/11/2020 13:07

1frenchfoodie · 17/11/2020 21:37

SOTD MMM By the Fireplace, needed something soothing to prep for a discussion about a team restructure that is going to turn my job on its head.

Shrillharridan · 18/11/2020 08:22

Morning fragrant ones!
Another meeting today. Ugh.
Period has arrived and I feel like roadkill.
Ds2 is full of cold so off school.
I think I need a bottle of black opium....

teta · 18/11/2020 09:43

Vero kern Mito is Sotd. A glorious OTT Galbanum infused mediterranean garden with lush flowers & waterfalls.
I'm so sad this range has now gone and I only have a few drops left.
It's really dark and grim here this morning. I hope the day picks up for everyone🌞
