Scent of the Day

[Tulipsareredvioletsarebue]

I think there was one a few months/weeks back but can't find it, so apologies if doubling up.
What perfume are you wearing today?
I will wear Atelier Cologne Trefle Pur in hope it will actually be warm today.

I'm looking for a hyacinth perfume if anyone knows of one?

VB new perfume revere is vanilla overdose. If you like Giordini di Toscana Bianco Latte you may like this. Test on skin as on my skin both smell like burned rubber and very synthetic vanilla

Good news, I won't be adding it to my wishlist

I got a sample of that today @MiaN and thought the same - very much vanilla front and centre! I love Portofino 97 and San Ysidro Drive but can safely pass on this one!

Talking about wishlists - what has everyone got on theirs?

I would like another Kayali fragrance
I already have Vanilla 28,Pistachio Gelato and Burning Cherry.
I'm thinking either the Juicy Apple or Sparkling Lychee

I would also love love love to pick up the Initio Addictive Vibration

Not much on that list - so I need to get out to the shops and try out some of the suggestions from this thread!

Clean reserve skin again, going out for a meal and didn't want anything heavy

On my wish list - Byredo Eyes Closed (but will probably stay on my wish list unless they do a sample size bottle as full size is £150)
Maison Margiela Coffee Break
Armani Si Intense
Boy Smells Hinoki Fantome
Vyrao Witchy Woo

The last two are in the Space NK fragrance calendar on its way to me right now in the mail! (sample sizes anyway)

Nothing honestly I am spoiled with Harvey Nichol's and Harrods advent. I also have good few from 2023 Penhaligons although my son and husband took most. I find over the last year my preference have changed a lot so I need to decide what to do with the perfumes I don't love and are nearly full.

Michael Kors Sky Blossom which is a nice floral/slight green scent.

My best friend bought the same scent once she smelled it on me. It’s now discontinued.

Fragrantica lists these as being hyacinth scents:-

I am wearing Dune - I always thought it was summery but ah well.

I've gone old skool and am wearing Jessica McClintock, it's gorgeous and have had a few compliments.

Space NK fragrance calendar landed ( like he'll am I waiting for December) and it's straight on with the Boy Smells Hinoki Fantome. Weird scent, but growing on me.

It's a lovely set if anyone thinking of getting it

Jlo glow today. I love this when I don't know what to wear and want to smell clean

I’m still on the Vryao The Sixth sample. I’ve now ordered a 7.5 ml in a set with Witchy Woo, which was the one I really wanted to try from the Space NK advent

Space NK do better boxes for their fragrance advents, it is very pretty.

I think I have tried most from Space NK advent with the only exception of the Boy Smells .. I already have two full sizes (byredo bal d'afrique and glossier you), and 4 others same size as in the advent - 2 repeat from last year the elleven oil and replica and I have mini Julia has a gun not a perfume as well I don't know what DS&Durga from different advent.

By the way, use that oil quicker as it goes off in less then year.

I was interested in Diptique La Rose & Jo loves Jo but nothing else. The box is so gorgeous, I am tempted but really for that little that I want is not worth it to me.

Fellow perfumistas, I am extremely tempted by the Byredo deal - a box of 24 2 ml samples for £180 BUT you then get £150 voucher to put towards a full size bottle. Ordinarily this would be massively out of my price range, but I have fallen in love with Mumbai Noise and Byredo in general. Thinking I can shift some of the 2ml samples on Ebay to pay for half the bottle of Mumbai noise - as well as trying out a few of the other scents myself.

Early christmas present maybe?

Anyway my SOTD is Memo Marfa - another Advent Calendar goodie.

@IDontHateRainbows that Byredo set sounds massively tempting. I’ve just realised that I have an oil roller of Mojave Ghost that I need to start using before it goes off

@IDontHateRainbows they also give you more samples with your perfume order so it comes up as great deal. I received this as gift last year, great fun! Go for it, I love my byredo perfumes - I have two :) I didn't sell any samples but if you have the time and will for it - sounds like great way to cut cost of the bottle

I've just ordered it! Samples go for £5 to £10 on ebay and I sell a lot on there (business seller) so no hassle to put them on there and with any luck will pay for most of the bottle of Mumbai Noise which I will soon be ordering. If I had to choose a way to die, drowning in a vat of Mumbai Noise would be the best way to go I can't get enough of it!

I went with Armani Si Passione today, I have travel size. Shampo fresh sweet fruity floral. I am enjoy it, I don't feel tempted to buy bigger size but it is good easy reach when you don't know what to wear. Name is misleading - it's more soft & clean vs intense passion type of scent.

@IDontHateRainbows you gave me a good laugh! ". If I had to choose a way to die, drowning in a vat of Mumbai Noise "

love when you find perfume you enjoy so much.

I would! I've actually just sold a bunch of samples this past week, hadn't done that for a while and was doubtful but they went quickly. It's always the best when you find a perfume you just love.

Angel's Share by Kilian - a boozy fruit cake in a bottle. This is one of my go to scents, my skin loves it from initial spray to dry down. I'm allergic to By the Fireplace, my skin comes out in a rash that requires antihistamines so Angel's Share is my autumn scent.
