The friendly perfumistas thread 31: jingling all the way to a fragrant Christmas 🎄

[Opal8]

A Christmas thread 🎄

Wishing all my fragrant chums a very Merry Christmas 💜

Sotd 4160 Shazam!

Got my 4160 standing Stones today...
Along with a sample of court of ravens
I really like both
SS is a citrussy ambery scent and CofR is a deep incensey rose

Happy Christmas-y new thread! SOTD is Chanel 19, for a difficult meeting which turned out not to be difficult at all.

SOTD Avon Timeless. I've been wearing this a lot recently; it makes me feel very glam (hint - I'm not glam at all really).

Sotd - L'air Du Desert Marocain.

Simply WOW 🤩

SOTD here is Jo Malone Jasmine Sambac and Marigold. It is wonderful.

Ooh, great idea! I love a festive thread. A wonderfully merry and fragrant christmas to all my fellow perfumistas! 🎄🎅

SOTD Obsession, for a trip to the hairdressers. ❄️

It's great isn't it?

Hello! I went to an actual perfume counter the other day and wasted the opportunity on jicky (I flirt with this but have not worn seriously) and Guerlain mandarin basilic which smelled on me like a satsuma one the bo sho used to do in the 90s. I can’t handle fruit at all now it seems.

Like the sound of court of ravens @Opal8. Looking for a rose and really wanted to try tauer rose de Kandahar just for the back story but put off by apricot.

“Are you all ready for Christmas?” as people keep asking me. We haven’t even decided what we’re eating let alone bought presents. Some serious internetting this weekend.

@FormerlySpeckledyHen

Sotd - L'air Du Desert Marocain.

Simply WOW 🤩

I've gone off that a bit Hen. Don't know why. It's lost the wow factor for me. I like it, but I just don't completely love it anymore.

I'm looking for a bottle of Amber Russe by Parfums d'Empire from a UK shop, if anyone sees it anywhere. I got a sample from Les Senteurs and was blown away by it but they're not stocking it now. Liberty had it but it's permanently out of stock now. If anyone sees it, please let me know.

COfR is fabulous and I am someone who doesn't do roses

If you want a less speedy version of LADDM then give Shazam! a go!

Christmas wise I'm done
Just waiting for a couple of last minute gifts to arrive

Food shops ordered
Couple of days out planned (assuming it doesn't all get cancelled...)

Dh back from the US today :)
So it'll feel more christmassy once he's home

Patiently waiting for the Avon lady to deliver my Timeless .

Sotd 4160 tuesdays Standing Stones

Sotd to take ds2 to his 1st vaccine appointment 4160tuesdays temptation

SOTD Diptyque Eau Duelle. I had my booster yesterday (in Chanel 19), and feel really crap today.

I had a lot of pain in my arm and armpit after my booster

I've felt crap for over a week after A Moderna booster. Still glad I've had it though 🤞.
Sotd is Annick Goutal's Songes EDP.

A week @Fferny1? 🙈 I had Moderna for both my first jabs so did not expect this!
