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! 😊

Tried E from the vanilla box earlier. On me it had top notes of Elastoplast with base notes of TCP 😄 I’ve washed it off and am now wearing the lovely Incense Water by Sana Jardin.

@Cantonet I love Eau d'Iparie too. It's just gorgeous.

Sotd is Eau Duelle. I'm so glad it's the weather for heavier scents now.

SOTN is Kayali Vanilla 28.

Snap!! 🙂

SOTD Green tea and nectarine - Elizabeth Arden

Got my escentual spice box
Hmm.
I definable recognise 2.
1 might be shazam!
2 I really dislike
The last one is lovely
It'll be very interesting to see what they are
Sotd pp mmm btf

I tried H from the vanilla box earlier. On me it was almost nutty when it first went on, then went through a powdery stage (iris?) and then the dry down was a really nice vanilla.

SOTE will be Kayali Vanilla, to continue the vanilla theme.

SOTD F from the escentual box, smells very familiar like something my mum may have worn.

I’m in a hole of Diptyque Eau Duelle. So perfect for this time of year.

Sotn kayali vanilla 😋

SOTD was L'heure Bleue because I had to drag myself out into the world today. I'm so glad I did as had a really lovely time after appointments and errands were completed.

SOTN is Shazam, which smells wonderfully rich on this chilly evening.

Payday was last Friday so I now have a small bottle of Gucci Bloom and a little box of Guerlain samples from Notino (mon guerlain, la petite robe noire, aqua allegoria mandarin basilic, aqua allegoria nettare di sole and santal royal)

sotd: Bloom - it's not really an autumnal scent but I do like it

SOTD Miller Harris Myrica Muse. It's a fruity floral with a hint of booze but I find it more floral than anything else. I really like it.

Hi I have never posted on this thread before but I’m hoping you lovely fragrance ladies can help me please.
I know it’s terribly unsophisticated but I have worn Body Shop white musk for 30 years or more and it’s now changed as it’s been re invented as a vegan version and the smell is completely different. I’ve been told the Perfume Parlour do a dupe called Clear Dear but it hasn’t been in stock for many months now. I used a website where you could search for similar perfumes and it came up with this perfume pictured, but I cannot find anything online related to this. Any help greatly appreciated!

I really want to try that new Miller Harris @MissBattleaxe.

I’ve just had an email from Gallivant offering to send a free sample of their new perfume, so I’ve ordered one. I was wearing their Tel Aviv today and I’ve got plans to get both Gdansk and Los Angeles, so looking forward to trying the new one.

Yes the new Gallivant ixs Abu Dhabi. Looking forward to trying it. They are consistently good quality.

Sotd pp mmm btf layered with campfire marshmallow body creme

SOTN is Amber Absolute. This is such a warm smell; frankincense, spices, woods and toffeed amber - I feel like I'm smouldering inside!

Sotd pp mmm btf for my foodbank shift

sotd mon guerlain. Well this is very lovely, very pretty scent.

SOTD - 4160 Rhubarb and custard. It's so accurate and yet not cloying at all, I really enjoy wearing it.

Snap @Pigeon31, I'm wearing Mon Guerlain today too. I love it, it's pretty and rich at the same time.

Jo Malone Nutmeg & Ginger layered with Mizensir's Eau de Gingembre.
Mizensir is the best Ginger perfume I've found. I buy it in 10 ml decants as it's so spendy 😊

SOTD is Mitsouko, because today is the perfect day for it imo - sunny but fresh with the leaves just turning. I love autumn.

I shall be tuning into the escentual vanilla box reveal at 8pm.

I'd better wear one of them I suppose! 😃
