Sotd glossier fleur. This is nicer than I thought it would be, white floral.

Self perfume presents for Xmas day: narciso for her intense,afternoon delight gift set (30ml + 10ml), PDM set of 4 + BDK creme du cuir.
That'll do me!

Vyrao Witchy Woo. I just really like this!

MiaN · 23/12/2025 17:58

I kept asking what smells really nice in the car today until I copped on its me! I think I like Lily of the Valley AdP a lot more then I initially thought

I am not sad I didn't get into seasonal fragances this Christmas. I have not worn Babylon or Queen of the Night, Ginger Biscuit and Angel's Share only few times. Only Gris Charnel and Lira are getting more frequent use.

SOTD is Brompton Immortals. I wanted an ‘in your face’ warm oriental floral to help me through my task list today. I’ll be opening my CH mystery boxes later so may choose something different this evening

I really love Brompton Immortals. Since opening its fast become one of my very favourites.

I've been wearing Ginger Biscuit for several days out of laziness and because I probably won't want to wear it much after new year.

MiaN · 24/12/2025 12:47

AdP Mandorlo di Sicilia for me today. Going out for Christmas meal. I am really surprised how sweet vanilla & almond this is - no regrets but won't be turning to bigger bottle as it's not scent profile I reach out to often. Weirdly enjoying it today

Millymollymine · 24/12/2025 19:56

SOTD EX Nihilo Vesper Glitz - I love the Orange and Neroli, with hints of vanilla as it dries down. I’ve realised orange note is what I love which is why I also like Libre and memo marfa.

Lurkingshark · 24/12/2025 20:01

SOTD Commodity juice. Lovely and cheery. Tomorrow is Gris charnel.

i will look forward to the scent chat, new smells or old favourites in the new year. Merry Christmas!

IDontHateRainbows · 24/12/2025 20:16

Happy Spritzmas all! Ive gone for glossier you fleur and delina this evening. Looking forward to opening my self- perfume presents tomorrow.

This was mine today too, as my last box in the Harrods fragrance advent calendar. It's so beautiful 😍 I then wore rude oud to go out for a curry and drinks tonight. I felt it was the only one that could match the strength of curry 🤣🤣

Cracking into my Merchant of Venice trial kit :) 'Byzantine Saffron' is what it sounds like, a very soft, leathery saffron, perfect for today.

MrsBnow12 · 25/12/2025 11:17

SOTD is Delina, it is my favourite day scent and family friendly.

Doglover73 · 25/12/2025 11:22

Sotd
Ludatrix Vyrao.
Only sprayed 30 mins ago. Can hardly smell it although it was nice at first.

Merry xmas! 🎄❄️♥️

JoRaRaRa · 25/12/2025 11:23

Merry Christmas all 🎄🎅

SOTMorning has been Jo Malone myrrh and tonka.
I might go with my current fave combo of You Doux and Gris Charnel for today. My husband got me a full bottle of gris Charnel so I can use it without worrying that I'll run out now 😍
Then this evening, I'll switch to Brompton Immortals again.

IDontHateRainbows · 25/12/2025 14:10

I had the first of my self presents today, bdk creme de cuir. This is a beautiful scent that I liked last year and still think is great, so its not one I'm having a different experience of. If anything I like it even more. Its supposed to be a leather scent but im not smelling leather. Its creamy and fruity but very smooth and subtle, expert blending.

The long awaited pdm set is next up, may try delina exclusif later.

Merry Christmas everyone! SOTD is Penhaligon’s Babylon. Think it will need a top up later, but really enjoying this.

This is one of my favorites, alas too expensive for regular use

@IDontHateRainbows It’s lovely! Am making a little sample last as long as possible.

IDontHateRainbows · 25/12/2025 16:46

Delina exclusif from the pdm set. This is lovely, much prefer to the original delina although it is similar in some ways. Sonehow deeper and smoother. Impressed so far.

Im not usually a dupes person but due to expense I found a really good dupe of this, Mesopotamia by perfume parlor.

@IDontHateRainbows Thank you!

Clémentine California Atelier Cologne for me today. I think with all food smell I just fancied something fresh

OvaHere · 25/12/2025 21:56

MrsBnow12 · 25/12/2025 11:17

SOTD is Delina, it is my favourite day scent and family friendly.

I wore Delina too and I was gifted the matching shower gel.

DSIL really liked the PDM men's set I got for him (the bargain Escentuals one).

So a good PDM day all round.

JoRaRaRa · 25/12/2025 22:05

@OvaHere my mum and husband liked the escentual bargain PDM sets that I bought for them too 😍 I also got the delina hair perfume 🩷

My mum got for me the Guerlain Ambre Samar for Christmas which is soooo gorgeous 🥰 I was so happy to open it 😁 I noticed that a lot of the gifts I bought people this year were fragrance related. I think I'm obsessed 🤣

paristotokyo · 26/12/2025 06:53

Vyrao free 00. I think I’ll be finishing up the 7.5ml I have soon which is sad. I think I got it in a Liberty edit ages ago. I want to use up more sample sizes before I I make any big purchases but this is definitely going to be something I’ll rp in a full size later on (hopefully discounted!). This has been the surprise of the year as on paper I didn’t think I’d like it. But on my skin, it’s just the most perfect everyday scent. Soft, musky, a touch of citrus. A very feminine and pretty scent.
