Looks like we ran out of space - welcome to a shiny new thread! (the 36th edition!)

Hope you approve of the title. 😁

As always, everyone is very welcome - we're most definitely open to Newbies. 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! 😊

I think I might have to try the PP version of Whispers in the Library @Jackydaytona. I really liked the original when I tried it the other day and the PP By the Fireplace is so good.

It's excellent imo
I wouldn't buy the original as I actually prefer this version
Ditto by the fireplace - I prefer the pp version to the original :)

I keep meaning to get a little bottle of the pp Whispers in the Library to try, but always forget. Although, in actual fact, I personally prefer the original By The Fireplace to the pp version, maybe because the MM is slightly spicier and warmer to my nose. They are so very close, though.

SOTN is No19.

We’re all in synch as my SOTD is MMM Whispers in the Library - I have 30ml of the original but have never tried pp version. I’ve not worn this in ages but it is so chilly here just now it feels perfect.

Sotd pp whispers in the Library 😊

I've ordered 4160tuesdays dark queen as a little treat 😀

DramaAlpaca · 24/07/2023 16:02

I almost went for Whispers in the Library today, but chose Lazy Sunday Morning instead as I'm hopping on a plane soon. Just picked up a sample set of Guerlain Aqua Allegoria minis in the duty free.

justaweeone · 25/07/2023 11:43

Bit of a wildcard but can anyone recommend me a perfume that smells like Badedas shower gel please.

ThreeImaginaryBoys · 25/07/2023 13:29

SOTD Guerlain Nahema.

Jackydaytona · 25/07/2023 16:24

DramaAlpaca · 26/07/2023 17:26

SOTD is a mixture of about a dozen sprays all over me from going a bit mad in Harrods perfume hall Grin I'm noseblind at this stage, goodness only knows what I smell like, I felt a bit sorry for anyone sitting next to me on the tube!

CorneliaStreet · 26/07/2023 17:36

SOTD Mon Guerlain. It’s so miserable here weather wise this afternoon that I needed something comforting.

Judystilldreamsofhorses · 26/07/2023 21:03

SOTD Commodity Milk. Yesterday was MH Violet Ida to see Barbie 💕

@Judystilldreamsofhorses I was only thinking recently that something like Violet Ida or Lipstick Rose would be perfect for seeing the new Barbie movie!

SOTN is Ambre Orient, for seeing not the Barbie movie, but the Sewing Bee final, which I did enjoy very much.

Judystilldreamsofhorses · 26/07/2023 23:06

@FestivelyScent Lipstick Rose was my other choice!
