A Christmas thread 🎄

Wishing all my fragrant chums a very Merry Christmas 💜

Sotd 4160 Shazam!

Have a lovely time @FormerlySpeckledyHen

I'm so tired I haven't even got a sote on yet!

I like this thread! I too need to test Chanel no 19 Poudre. I like the original no 19 and Cristalle. To me, those and the original Coco are the best Chanel fragrances

@PiscesSt you & I have the same taste in Chanel

I tried Poudre in my local department store today, to check my own bottle isn't fake (I had a bit of a moan about its performance upthread). Anyway, it's definitely legit, the smell was just the same. I guess it's going to be a case of spray loads on if I want to notice it.

Sote 4160tuesdays Temptation

SOTD first 2022 airing for FM Lipstick Rose - out for lunch today and then went to get my eyebrows done after work. SOTE is Diorissimo.

You're wearing all my favourite perfumes @Judy. Inspired by all the mentions, I'm wearing Diorissimo. I totally forgot I had a bottle as I tend to hide away my spring/summer scents in a dark cupboard. I must dig out my piercingly beautiful Carillion Pour Un Ange samples too.

SOTD has been Knowing - a beautifully earthy and warm chypre rose, for an equally beautiful day.

oooh you smell incredible 😍

Timeless today for lunch at Paul Ainsworth’s No 6.

@ChiswickFlo 😊 I loved Knowing so much I bought a small bottle for spring/summer. Such a lovely warm earthy smell.

@FormerlySpeckledyHen That really sounds fabulous - enjoy your lunch! 😋

My 4160tuesdays 15ml crowd funded fragrance has finally arrived...I was SO looking forward to it as its a vintage chypre...but its got a note in that my skin obviously hates...smells quite "sour" on me after a while. Grr.
Such a shame. Its a really expensive one too! 😖
Oh, well.
I'll ask on the 4160tuesdays group if anyone wants it.
Dh and I are going "out out" twice today!
Wish I hadn't spent the morning spring cleaning...I'm shattered 😬

Enjoy your evening out @ChiswickFlo!

I’m in Diorissimo today. I went for lunch with my friend and mortifyingly developed a cough midway through - I have had a sore throat for the last few days but did a negative lateral flow test before going out. In bed now feeling pretty rough.

@Cantonet I was just trying to remember the name of that Tauer earlier!

SOTD has been Sahara Noir.

Feel better soon @Judystilldreamsofhorses!

No idea where that exclamation mark came from...

Sotd 4160tuesdays sexiest scent on the Planet ever
I love this for when the weather gets nicer 💜

Hope you feel better soon @judystilldreamsofhorses

SOTD is 4160 Sunshine and Pancakes. I love this in spring.

No SOTD, i am so poorly 😭

@Judystilldreamsofhorses

No SOTD, i am so poorly 😭

Oh love, I'm sorry :(

SOTE is Jungle Elephant - because it is really chilly here this evening.

@Judystilldreamsofhorses - I don't fancy perfume when I'm ill, either. I really hope you feel better soon. Sending healing, warm thoughts your way...

Hope you feel better soon @Judystilldreamsofhorses

I have a bottle of Jungle Elephant on order, I hope I like it. I've also just placed an order with 4160 Tuesdays, to be collected from my UK family when I visit soon. I'm very excited about it, lots of lovely new samples to try.

Morning
Sotd will be Estee lauder modern muse nuit

SOTD glossier you

SOTD was Gallivant Brooklyn. Now in Next Cashmere, which fell into my basket when I was ordering some socks. It’s pretty good, gentle and soothing and super cheap 🙂
