Scent of the day part 2

[fivebyfivebuffy]

I couldn't see a new thread so I'm starting one!

I love the Molecule 1 + Black tea, it's beautiful.. wasn't keen on the Iris or Patchouli ones

I feel exactly the same about Vanilla Powder! At first I absolutely loved it and couldn't get enough of it.. now sometimes when I wear it, I find it a little bit nauseating which I'm gutted about!

SOTD is hibiscus mahajad. I think it’s a really interesting scent but would be amazing layered with something, I just need to figure out what…

Thanks for the feedback all. I have read that while some love the escentric molecules fragrances others just can’t even smell them. It’s so rare for me to love a fragrance these days but I really liked the mandarin.
When I was younger I’d fall in love with new fragrances a lot more easily. Coco, no 5, miss Dior, Beautiful, eau d’Issey. I thought they were all great. Now they are often either too much, or insignificant. It’s odd.

Tonight following my shower I'm trying a sample of Annick Goutal Tenue
de Soiree.

It's fruity & sweet initially with a caramel sort of undertone so far

It's pleasant but not my usual style.

I'll wait to see what it's like in half an hour or so.

Sotd is Byredo Mumbai noise. Love this, although having gone through a sweeter scent phase recently it smells a bit bitter which I'm sure is just my nose adapting ro less sweet scent as I didn't get this when I first experienced it. Layers well with kayali vanilla 28 so may put a spritz of that.over.

It's not an office friendly scent so ideal day to wear it.

I've got the previously mentioned Irish Leather on today and I don't dislike it as much as I thought. While it is quite leathery and a bit too masculine for my tastes, it's more subtle when it settles down. There's some spicy and sweetish notes in there that soften it. I won't be rebuying but I will use it up I think.

@TheGander I love molecule 01. Husband can’t smell it. I like +patchouli and +black tea but in on its own I go for unbranded and cheap iso e super from amazon.

todays 4160 is Lift which is pleasant, reminiscent of Mrs Gloss Lemon Sherbet and has completely vanished after an hour and a half.

Playing catch-up with the 4160T today and trying Chocolate Ginger for the first time. I like a gourmand but this is only giving me the two notes in the name, and mostly chocolate. It's ok, but lacking in depth.

I like the Irish Leather more as the day goes on. The leather is dying down with the other notes coming forward.

SOTD is Penhaligon’s Babylon. I think this is my favourite winter fragrance. I love the spicy, woody & vanilla notes. It’s like a more complex Sandalwood Temple. I thought Halfeti would be my favourite from the house, but I prefer it for occasions when I wang to give off a more confident vibe. Adore it on DH though so I still get my fix.

I'm going to try the Irish Leather now, from the HN AC. Will update!

Irish leather is not for me unfortunately. It does smell very leathery to be fair. Just not my cup of tea.
SOT evening is ambre vanille. I got the mini set with oil body cream and rollerball perfume, just had a lovely shower using it all after. Very comforting scent.

SOTD was Givenchy L'Interdit Absolu. I like it, quite strong, think it is unisex. Longevity medium.

Sotd is bdk rouge smoking. Office day, and I'm worried I've over spritzed. Think I'm a bit noseblind too.

Jardim Real today. It's not terribly exciting but it's pretty inoffensive. It's not terribly strong smelling and I'm not sure how long it will last. I'd probably give it a 4 or 5 out of 10, which is better than yesterday's Irish Leather which started at a 1 and managed to improve to a 3 as it settled in.

Today's is meant to have mandarine and orange blossom but I really don't get any citrus vibes from it. To me, it's floral with a hint of spice.

Agreed re Lift, @SabrinaPrune. Pleasant but disappeared almost immediately.

SOTD is Jo Malone Velvet Rose & Oud from the intense range. I find this a very sweet rose. I don’t get much woodiness. Very good projection though, even on just one spray.

Today I'm wearing Tom Ford Santal Blush, an old favourite. I find it a very comforting smell & it always gets compliments when I wear it. I have a large bottle & never get tired of it.

Back on Scented Veil today, topped up with Escentric 02

Perfumer H Rain cloud. This will be good for spring. Slightly citrussy but not too tangy. Interested in this Perfumer ( Lyn Harris), has anyone tried any others from this range?

SOTD is Widian’s Hili - a nice elegant scent imo.

Ginger Biscuit for me today - first time feeling like it this year but I am working from home and crave it's spicy sweet warm vibes.

Tom ford rose rose prick for me today one of my faves or at least it was tol I read an article yesterday which said rose scent makes u smell old erm I'm only in my 40s. Anyone else enjoy rose scents or do u after they make u smell old?

Today I'm wearing Le Labo Bergamotte 22
I love this one & it's my second bottle
