The Friendly Perfumistas Thread 34 - 🍂 Autumn is Here & It's Time For Cosy Scents!

[FestivelyScent]

Hello all my wonderfully fragrant friends,

It's time for a shiny new thread! 😊 Perfect timing for autumn too. 🍂🎃🍂

Newbies are 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! 😊

Happy Anniversary for Thursday! @Pigeon31 🍾🎉🎂

Good luck to your DS for his uni essay @Thatsasmashingblouseyouvegoton Sausage sandwiches sound like the perfect fuel to me!

SOTD is Ambre Sultan.

Ooh, forgot to add - I've ordered some samples! Only two: Coromandel and Le Lion, but I'm very excited as I loved both when I tried them in Leeds. Both are perfect for this time of year! ❄️☃️

I only hope they come, I'd not heard of the website before. 🤞

SOTD is Le Labo Noir 29 for a grey and wet commute to the office.

I enjoyed wearing skylar vanilla sky yesterday so will wear it again today

What a grey day 🌂☁️

I'm trying out a sample of Prada Paradoxe today. It's another powerful, sweet white floral like L'Interdit. I actually quite like the scent but it's way too powerful for me - I've only put a little bit on my wrist and I can still smell it constantly three hours later. I think it would suffocate me if I sprayed it anywhere near my neck!

Commodity Paper+ for me today!

Is it just me or does anyone else find the Penhaligon's online site ridiculously stupid and unusable?
They really need to seriously look at marketing and FB advertising.
It's as if they don't actually want to sell anything.

Very grey day here too, it felt nearly dark still at 9 am this morning!

SOTD is Ambre Narguile. Cosy and festive, and all the cinnamon!

It barely even gets light here in winter. Roll on the solstice.

sOTD Byredo Bibliotheque.

Wait that is wrong, isn’t it? I mean the shortest day, then it’s on the up from there.

A few days ago I hovered over Shazam! whilst browsing after finishing the oud box, dithering what to buy…
Next thing you know I got an email offering a size upgrade for free 😎…I’m going to smell lovely today, lucky colleagues 😀

I love that one.

SOTD Tom ford solei neige

Yes, you are! :)

I'm public facing today so need something small space friendly.

I think I'll go with pp mmm whispers in the Library

SOTD Sana Jardin Tiger by her Side.

Well.
What a horrible day. Ugh.
Sote will be skylar vanilla sky to accompany ds2 to his am dram club

Sorry to hear about the bad day @Thatsasmashingblouseyouvegoton Hope tomorrow is better, and that you've had a chance to put your feet up and relax this evening. 💐

You will definitely have smelled amazing in Shazam today @FormerlySpeckledyHen

SOTN is Shalimar, which smells like candied peel, marzipan and icing sugar tonight. 🎄❄️

Thank you.

Sadly not, I was helping at ds2s hobby group

I could have cried 😢

I'm SO tired

Oh no, @Thatsasmashingblouseyouvegoton Sending warm, gentle thoughts for a peaceful night's sleep and a better day tomorrow. 💐

Thank you 💙
Hope you are feeling better too x

Sotd pp mmm btf

SOTD was J’Adore (my standard going to the office scent). SOTE is Prada Paradoxe. I think I like this but it’s so strong!

I've pre ordered the new sandalwood sacre Candle from le jardin retrouve :)
I've got my bougie bougie gilt Candle burning 🕯
I might wear firedance to bed 🛌 😴 🙂💕

My dad has bought me the kayali vanilla set with the hand cream can't wait to get it

Gilt is my absolute fave candle, it's stunning

Thank you @Thatsasmashingblouseyouvegoton . I'm plodding along. Today was a good day - I went Christmas shopping to the next town and enjoyed seeing all the lights. 🎄

It's both absolutely freezing and foggy out there tonight - a perfect winter day - I stupidly went out without my scarf and came home chilled through. ❄️☃️

SOTD was JHL. This smells like old Cinnabar and old Youth Dew mixed - gorgeous! And perfect with all its clove-y, orange-y spiciness for Christmas. 🎄

SOTN is Ambre Sultan.
