Happy birthday @SavageGarden23 - have the best day!

SOTD for me is Thameen, Bravi. Someone on here mentioned it a couple of days ago and it reminded me of how much I like it, so I dug it out this morning.

I wore Givenchy L'INTERDIT this week and I got lots of compliments. Of all the perfumes this one gets most. Also Delina Rosee. I love it but it doesn't feel like me me.

Most days I am wearing Malin and Goetz Strawberry.

IDontHateRainbows · 14/02/2026 08:30

Fragrance du bois lucius today. One of the few citrussy scents I really rate.

Also, dries van noten chamomile satin. Lavender vanilla, lovely.

@MiaN
I tested the malin goetz strawberry in space nk the other week. Im on the fence. X

Mackemlass79 · 14/02/2026 10:12

Morning all. My SOTD today is an omd high street favourite of many many yrs just pink from Next. Always liked this fragrance tho today for some reason im finding it very sweet maybe because yesterday I had vanilla on and it was more spicy so making todays seem very sweet I dont know

IDontHateRainbows · 14/02/2026 10:40

Pegasus from the PDM set. Although marketed as masculine this is quite gourmandy to my nose and more unisex. It's got vanilla and almond in so ticking two boxes straight away although there is also a clean musky scent coming through so it's not a full on gourmand.

I may have a day of testing from this set - expect further updates

@IDontHateRainbows that sounds lovely!

My SOTD is Kayali Oudgasm. I'm another one who is over the stupid names! But it's a nice enough fragrance. I wouldn't buy a FB but I'll happily use the sample size.

Fleecy · 14/02/2026 13:39

I've been logging stuff on Fragrantica as I try it. Just gone to log this and I see there's loads of Oudgasms. I've put it back in the drawer now so no idea which one this is from the tester set. What a wally!

Doglover73 · 14/02/2026 14:26

Sotd Matiere Premiere Vanilla Powder again. Sprayed on skin today. Nice and long lasting. Glad I tried it. X

IDontHateRainbows · 14/02/2026 14:29

I've cracked open the Tom Ford Fig Erotique and it doesn't disappoint! Now I remember why I spent an extortionate amout of my hard-earned, more than a days wages, on a 30ml bottle of smelly liquid. It's lovely and deep and rich without being overpoweringly so. Probably the most I've ever spent on one bottle, per ml, to be honest. Luckily I like it as much as I did when I bought it.

I started the day with PDM Meliora, I really like how light and sweet this one is, it feels effortless 😍 Then I moved onto PDM Oriana, my favourite from PDM, it's just so beautiful (sweet, fluffy and very girly), I feel that it's perfect for Valentines day.

I moved onto FDB Sirene this afternoon, another recent discovery that's become a favourite (I'm manifesting a FS bottle of this in the Harrods fac this year 🤭). This one is sweet, girly, but also elegant 🩷 I was going to try JHAG Juliette later, I think it's still feminine but also mysterious, but I think I'll stick to sirene.

I've somehow cut my neck, so it stings when I spray on perfume 😕 I do enjoy switching up perfumes throughout the day, and today I went for sweet fragrances for a valentines vibe 🌹 ❤️ 💋

SOTD L’Artisan Parfumeur Venenum - this opens beautifully, warm creamy chai and rice, it’s comforting and reminds me of rice pudding in a really good way. However the longevity is disappointing, after 2-3 hours it had disappeared.

I've just looked up the notes on that one and it sounds really nice 😍 I'll have to see if I can find it to try it in store.

Too right! If you can't treat yourself on your birthday, when can you?! 💁🏻‍♀️ Did you go to the Harrods perfume floor?

Edited

No, covent garden and liberty were enough.
I spent a fortune but no regrets! I wouldn't have bought the TF normally so im glad of the encouragement. Only once a year tho( twice including xmas)

Wearing fig erotique again. It didn't make ne 'erotique' on valentines night. Due to burning the candle at both ends (work/ London trip) I conked out at 9pm!!
