The Friendly Perfumistas Thread 33 - ☀️ Summer is here & we are all fragrantly fabulous

[FestivelyScent]

Hello fragrant friends,

This is edition 33 (!) of the long running perfumista threads.

Newbies most definitely welcome. Come and discuss your Scent Of The Day (SOTD), old favourites, new infatuations, the best dupes and scents of any price point. We are very friendly! 😊

This mental image of you pleases me immensely 😃💙

@musicmum75 Silky Woods sounds right up my street... are you liking it?

SOTD - MM BTF, I sadly seem to becoming anosmic to this quite fast. I'm spraying it like no-ones business.

Well.
Dh is definitely back!
Damaged bathroom mirror
Drink all over rug/sofa
Sink full of dishes

Morning.
No sotd yet as I may be doing DIY shortly and I refuse to "waste" perfume on such mundane matters 😀 😄
Feeling very Sunday dreadish today which is weird 🤔

SOTD - 4160 Ealing Green
It's nice and fresh but I'm a bit hungover and everything is jarring.
I'll try it again another day.

SOTD is an APO dupe of Chanel Misia. I love it. Starts quite sweet and dries down to lipstick-y deliciousness.

SOTD YSL Black Opium. Cosy.

SOTD is a mishmash of lots of things as I flew back from a weekend in Spain this morning so had a trying on session in duty free. Didn’t buy anything though, because pretty much everything thing was only in 100ml sizes and I don’t need that much of any perfume, considering how much I have already.

Morning
Sotd this Autumn's first outing of 4160tuesdays Shazam!
Glorious spicy Amber

I've accidentally layered Invite Only Amber with L'Interdit Rouge. I smell amazing (even if I do say so myself).

First outing for Mitsouko here!

Morning. Seem to be having a 3 day hangover here, still nauseous.
SOTD - Molecule 1

I can't drink these days @SandrasAnnoyingFriend
Its just not worth the 4 day hangover 😪
Try some berocca or similar and carbs...lots of carbs!

Meeting a friend for coffee today

Sotd Estee lauder modern muse nuit

@CorneliaStreet I always feel like that with 100ml bottles also - I really like having the option to pick a travel size or 30ml where I can. There are probably quite a few samples I've tried where I liked it, but not 100ml like :)

sotd: pas ce soir. Going through my BDK samples. I do like this - it's creamy but not from vanilla, and there's a touch of spice but not so that the pepper goes up your nose. Just it is also quite sweet.

I just 100ml bottles far too cumbersome

They are huge!

50mls is my limit size wise.

Of course, if they sold vats of mmm btf I'd probably buy one 🤣🤣

I'm not a big drinker usually for this exact reason. I am eating obscene amounts to try and feel better which isn't ideal!
I think I'll be back to normal tomorrow - well I hope so, I've got client meetings.

Masque Milano l Attesa is Sotd.
It's just the most perfect Iris and what smells like Rose but is actually Geranium & a leather & Champagne drydown.

Sold, I love, love, love iris.

Will add to my list

SOTD FM POAL. I've not worn this since spring and had forgotten how much I absolutely love it, it's so nice.

Trying out a free sample of L’Interdit this evening. It is certainly powerful - a very strong, sweet, white floral. Definitely wouldn’t wear this to the office (or in fact anywhere out of the house)!

Yeah.
I tried this some years ago.
It was a scrubber for me. Just too sweet and sickly.

I'm baaack. Well, sort of. Hope you are all okay. Thank you for all the well wishes - I've just read the thread through quickly and will catch up properly later.

I'm still feeling awful, but I've no idea what it is - I only want to sleep and rest all day long.

Anyway, will be going away for a couple of days by the sea tomorrow. I'm so tired really, but am hoping that the fresh air and change of scene will do me good.

SOTN is a really very early outing for Opium. Hasn't it got chilly all of a sudden? I was shivering all day, so this is to warm me up.

Hope your break helps you feel better @FestivelyScent

I've been constantly tired since having covid back in June. I have an afternoon nap most days 😴 😌

Sotd will be Estee lauder modern muse nuit

The new star wars series has started on duaney+ so that's my afternoon sorted 😀 👍💙

Enjoy the sea air @FestivelyScent, hope it does the trick.

SOTD is Gallivant Tel Aviv. This is perfect for a slightly chilly but sunny day in early autumn/late spring like today, as it's light but warm at the same time.

Thank you @Chevyimpala67 and @corneliastreet.

It'll be nice to be away for a couple of days. Just setting off now. Am quite excited.

I seem to nap most afternoons too, and do feel slightly more awake afterwards, so obviously need it. Whatever it is, I hope it goes quickly.

Tel Aviv sounds lovely.

SOTD is Opium again, to send me on my way.
