SOTD Heeley Hippie Rose. It's my birthday today and for the first time in many years I didn't request perfume! However DH bought me this a few birthdays ago and I love it.

I did however treat myself this morning - got an email from Diptyque offering me a birthday gift of a candle with any purchase, so I have a bottle of my favourite 34 Boulevard Saint-Germain (plus samples of Eau Papier, Eau Moheli and a Roses candle) winging its way to me now! A very grown-up and sophisticated scent as befits my advancing years 😉

@Magpiecomplex I really like WSBO, but I do live by the beach so smelling that way rather goes with the territory!

Happy birthday @TakeYourHatOffBoy - that sounds lovely. I keep seeing those candles and thinking how nice they look.

sotd: Bloom (neighbours have some kind of white floral bush that it in flower at the mo and made me think how much I like white florals for a mood boost)

Happy birthday @TakeYourHatOffBoy.

A good perfume day for me - we were in John Lewis earlier and DP randomly bought me a bottle of Un Jardin Sur le Nil.

They also had testers of the full Replica range so I tried Whispers in the Library for the first time. Gorgeous.

SOTD is Bana Banane by l’Artisan Parfumeur. One of their recent ones I really like, and I haven’t loved their output over the last few years.

I love Bloom @RosesAndHellebores - it's one of the scents I first loved when I was getting into perfumes and I still like it.

I do tend to have quite a few samples and discovery sets kicking around, which is great if you want to try a few different things.

FestivelyScent · 11/07/2023 23:33

SOTD was Apres L'Ondee, which was appropriately named for today's walk, as I got wet and cold in an unexpected shower.

SOTN is No19.

SOTD will be Violet Ida, for a hospital appointment with my neurologist. Please send positive vibes, I always get so nervous before these things, and am desperate for a treatment that works.
