Sotd pp mmm btf for a blood test 💉 🩸

CorneliaStreet · 10/11/2022 20:16

SOTD was J’Adore for a day in the office, SOTE is Si Intense.

I saw on YouTube something about a Kayali fragrance called Vanilla Royale Sugared Patchouli, think it might be a new one coming out.

ThreeImaginaryBoys · 10/11/2022 20:20

SOTD L'Interdit Rouge.
I wore it earlier in the week and fit the second time a random chap told me how lovely it smelt.
It must suit me!

FestivelyScent · 10/11/2022 22:40

SOTD was Ambre Sultan. I was feeling Christmassy today, so put carols on the radio, had a warm mince pie, and have started making an Xmas stocking. 🎄🎅Xmas Smile

I've got the house to myself (this is so rare) so SOTE is the Ruth Mastenbroek discovery set. All lovely but Firedance is the only one I'd wear. Got a beautiful candle called Fireside burning, wine and nonsense TV bliss.

I like firedance too

I've got a bath and body works fireside marshmallow candle burning atm :)

Which isn't helpful as I'm dieting 😬

Alienbigcat45 · 11/11/2022 21:26

Thatsasmashingblouseyouvegoton that sounds lovely! Lots of the independent shops near me have got really nice candles in at the moment and I've been very generous in my self gifting. Really need to stop...

FestivelyScent · 11/11/2022 23:47

The new Patchouli-vanilla from Kayali sounds exciting @Thatsasmashingblouseyouvegoton It has its own fragrantica entry already; the description is very enthusiastic! Looking forward to trying it as I love patchouli (I wonder how prominent this will be), although I do think the name is a mouthful.

SOTD was Ambre Narguile. Spiced heaven.

SOTN is Ambre Sultan. I do wish Ambre perfumes had more exciting names though.

Hi all am popping in for a while, about 5 name changes since I was last active on here. Hope you'll have me :)
I've been good recently selling bottles that I never wear and suchlike but I cracked yesterday and ordered a bottle of the new Shalimar millesime tonka so feel I need to confess and probably better not to do that to DH. He's a 2 fragrances man and thinks I'm nuts with my collection. But I'm sure you guys can relate.
I can't WAIT for it to arrive though. Feeling very excited.

Pleasepleasepleaseno · 12/11/2022 07:28

I've actually never tried any of the Kayali perfumes. I might try and look out for that one because it does sound lush.

CorneliaStreet · 12/11/2022 15:27

I’ll probably get some of the new Kayali if it’s available in a 10ml like the others.

SOTD is MMM Sailing Day. I really like the top notes of this but there’s something in the dry down I’m not sure about.

The weather is gorgeous here today, sunny and warm enough that we’ve had the doors open all day. We drove through the forest earlier and it looked beautiful in the sun, with the trees in all their autumnal colours.

WhyOY · 12/11/2022 15:33

There's a Kayali sample set on cult beauty... so tempting. Iike the vanilla one.

Scent of the day is Cacherel Noa. Bit of a meh scent.

FestivelyScent · 12/11/2022 16:41

Sounds idyllic! @corneliastreet I love autumn drives and walks - they do feel so precious. That beautiful gold and brown kaleidoscope is only here for such a short time. 🍂

SOTD is Shazam.

SOTD JM Wild Bluebell - had a bit of a headache and needed something gentle for going to the hairdresser.

I tried this one in John Lewis today (browsing while waiting for my flu jab appointment) - I'm not usually big on sweet perfumes but it is rather lovely!

Deathraystare · 12/11/2022 19:35

SOTD is Hypnotic poison again by Dior. Well, it was in my work bag! Might change to Mitsouko tomorrow.

ArielManto43 · 12/11/2022 21:46

It was warm and sunny today, so SOTD was Rose Tubereuse by E Coudray.

PeloFondo · 12/11/2022 23:18

SOTD ouai dean street
