Thank you, @Artdecolover. The journey was a bit stressful and circuitous, as the lift wasn't working at the railway station (I have mobility issues), so we missed our connection and had to change travel plans. However, York (it's a short city break) is very picturesque and charming. The hotel we are staying at is right next to a church and the bells chime the hours, which you'd think would be annoying, but weirdly is actually quite magical. Off to sightsee now.

SOTM (morning) was pp Tom Ford Amber Absolute, an incense-y, sort of thick, salty Amber. Really nice. SOTD will be pp MM BTF. Smile

SOTD jlo glow. Wanted something soapy after my bath and I'm tired 🥱

Purchased 4160 Tuesdays mix of MNND and creamy vanilla crumble (in the same bottle) which given I love both of them I'm hopeful for!

SOTD was the first autumn outing for YSL Black Opium.

FragrantlyScent · 29/09/2021 11:12

Went into Fenwick yesterday for a good sniff. MFK Grand Soir really stood out, a vanilla-y, smokey Amber with a slightly cakey feel in the mid notes and lots of oomph. Can see that pp have a dupe, so may get that as the real thing is £££.

SOTM - pp TF Amber Absolute.
SOTD - pp MM BTF.

MrsBerthaRochester · 29/09/2021 14:48

Sounds lovely!

Judystilldreamsofhorses · 01/10/2021 22:17

SOTD NRFH. Very happy it’s Friday!

Artdecolover · 03/10/2021 20:29

Sotd pp mmm btf 💜
I have used both the pp mmm btf body lotion and shower gel and they are both good
The candle is VERY good, comes nicely packaged and freshly made so they have a use from date. The pp candle is better than the maison margeila one - I've had both.
I've ordered pp mmm witl shower gel and candle ☺
The bathroom is done and almost decorated.
The downstairs wc is sadly still not finished...the Extractor fan doesn't work 😡

Judystilldreamsofhorses · 03/10/2021 22:54

SOTD Mitsouko. I need to look into that candle @Artdecolover

Judystilldreamsofhorses · 03/10/2021 22:57

I can only see wax melts, am i on the right website?

Artdecolover · 03/10/2021 23:05

@Judystilldreamsofhorses
It's an option on the drop down menu for each fragrance

Judystilldreamsofhorses · 03/10/2021 23:13

Ah, got it, thank you!

Artdecolover · 04/10/2021 07:10

Ugh
Morning
Meetings today 😴
Sotd will be pp mmm btf layered with the body products

Judystilldreamsofhorses · 04/10/2021 16:43

SOTD Chanel Le Lion.

Artdecolover · 05/10/2021 15:15

Sotd 4160 Shazam!⚡

Had to go shopping today to replace a damaged mirror and bought some lovely kraft Xmas wrap from paperchase...3for2 them birthday discount so I only paid for 1...hurrah! 😃

Ds2 is having a bedroom revamp for Xmas but sadly his plans are rather grandiose for my budget 🙃

Hello from an occasional lurker! I’ve got a confession to make and I thought you lovely folks would understand… I seem to have become addicted to ordering perfume samples each payday! I don’t think I’ve even worn half of them Blush

Any advice on tackling my stash? I’m feeling a little overwhelmed, although it’s a nice problem to have.

Artdecolover · 07/10/2021 14:33

Hello 👋
My suggestion would just be to buy more samples 🤣🤣
So...not helpful!
Sotd EL modern Muse Nuit
It's my birthday tomorrow 🤪 so I might wear my 4160 SSOTPE customisation from last year
I can't decide on one this year...too many to choose from!

Artdecolover · 07/10/2021 14:34

I'm going to fire up my pp mmm btf candle later 😃

FragrantlyScent · 07/10/2021 17:38

Hello, I'm back! Smile Our short break in York was wonderful; what a beautiful and friendly city (❤️). Was very sad to leave. However, I had that thing (at least, I think it's a thing) where I returned from holiday more tired than I was when I left, and, of course, was immediately rushed off my feet with things to do. So, am having a relaxing day today.

Scent yesterday was pp MM BTF.
Today it's Guerlain Mitsouko.

FragrantlyScent · 08/10/2021 14:15

Happy Birthday, @Artdecolover! 🎂🎉 Hope you have a fabulous day. Smile
PP body products and candles sound amazing and very good value, will definitely try when I make my order for their copy of MFK Grand Soir.

Artdecolover · 08/10/2021 16:39

Yes, lovely day thank you 😊
I'm quite tired now though
