The lovely friendly perfumistas thread 30: summer has arrived (allegedly) and we all smell incredible 😉

[Mrs08]

Hi all,
Couldn't see a new thread?
Hope this one is OK!

White queen now sold x

SOTD philosophy fresh cream. This is my new "perfume when I don't know what to wear"

Thank you for your kind well wishes everyone. ❤️ Had an appointment at the Dr today and was prescribed antibiotics for my chest infection. Hopefully that'll sort it and I'll be back to normal soon - I just feel so exhausted.

Hope your mum is OK @Opal8.

Wore fragrance today for the first time in over a week - MM By the Fireplace

I hope all ill Perfumistas are feeling better today. @Opal hope your Mum is too 💐.

Sotd is Vintage Ralph Lauren Safari for the first time since the cooler weather has hit. Ds2 is still unwell & at home again. So Gcse's are up in the air for this year most probably. DD2 has broken her arm in competition practice and is really cross she will miss the forthcoming event. The stars do not appear to be aligned in our favour this year... but the Safari's great and smells wonderful 🌾💚

Sorry to hear that @Fferny1
Must be so worrying 😟
Mum is OK. Well, she's not OK but she's home. Going to try and get her a Dr appointment tomorrow
Sotd 4160 Shazam!
My dermatology appointment has been cancelled on 3rd so I'm a bit fed up about that
I decided to decline the job offer in the end. It wasn't really what was advertised and a lot of stress for very little money
I'm still pondering the OU course...

My very glamourous late aunt wore Safari sometimes.
Lovely scent 😍

SOTD Byredo Bibliotheque for a lovely lunch with a former colleague who retired a couple of years ago.

Sotd 4160 Shazam!
I'm wearing this a lot now the weather is turning
Its SO gorgeous 😍
I'm going (hopefully!) to their open studio event on 3rd...anyone here going?
I'm now debating whether to not do hot pink Friday and just buy stuff there
Hmmmm

@alwayscrashinginthesamecar1 Welcome! I have a few suggestions for you:

Jil Sander Sun
MMM Replica Beach Walk,
4160 Tuesdays Warm Sand Blue Ocean (smells exactly as it sounds)
Jo Malone London Wood Sage and Sea Salt

@Opal8 I'm going to see Sarah on the 17th November as we are filming a masterclass for the Fragrance Foundation that day. I haven't seen the new studio yet so it'll be great to finally catch up[ with her after 2 years on social distancing!

Sounds great @MissBattleaxe
I'm looking forward to it
Sotd mmm replica whispers in the Library
Sote 4160 temptation

Sotd mmm replica whispers in the Library

Having a bit of a rubbish day today. Booster jab site is very red and bruised.
Ds2s bedroom flooring sliding being done AGAIN so all that shifting furniture for nothing 😡
I made an orange and poppy seed loaf as the too caught

Ugh

I might just go back to bed

SOTD MH L’Air De Rien, for some top notch Thai food.

SOTD Ambre Sultan, for setting up a new television and watching Strictly Come Dancing. After a few days of strong antibiotics, I'm finally beginning to think my chest infection is going. 🎉

Sotd 4160 Amber woods
I got 50mls of this in the mod sale
Very velvety
Its silage is great

SOTD Paloma Picasso.
Dark strange honeyed chypre

I haven't shared my blog for a while so here is a post about leather fragrances and the history of leather industry.

Hurrah @Fragrantly.
About time you felt better 💐
Hope you're recovered from your booster too @Opal🤞
I've got several perfumes sprayed on bits of my arm, as I had to make a decision on what to sell today. I've posted several niche & sample sets on certain perfume Facebook pages.
Anyone else find themselves using the same old favourites & vintages? Hence i probably need to cut down to around 20 bottles... from over 50 😨
Definitely moving more toward Chypres and away from Florals.

@Fferny1
Ooooh which ones!?
I have never been into florals and love chypres 💜
I had a count earlier...I have sold a few/given away a few so I currently have 15 x 4160 tuesdays, 10 x avon and a few classics like obsession, knowing etc
So about 40 x fbs
Probably 40 x samples
I've got a custom SSOTPE coming for Xmas and I might indulge in the hot pink Friday 💗 offer
I've also got the JJB on the way 🤣
So no more perfume for me this year...

Sorry, to answer your question...
Yes, I'm definitely using just a few scents in rotation atm
Mmm pp btf, mmm pp witl, 4160 Shazam!, 4160 captured By Candlelight, EL modern muse nuit...

These 😊

And these.
I've sold molecule & undergrowth & Crivelli samples.

Sorry 😞 I hope I haven't offended anyone by posting my sales here!

Oh, I don't think I've heard of any of those...
(Off to look at fragrantica)

Cantonet & fferny are one & the same ❣️😄

I gathered.....🤣💜
