Re: SotD Friday 20 November

Happy birthday to Silverbullet! :)

I'm in Daim Blond again. :)

Packing Christmas care parcels to friends abroad. It did make me think that it might be nice for us to have some kind of "secret...

Re: SotD Thursday 19 November

Wow, Ida! :D

I am in Noa today; a complete departure from recent fair. I had the laundry going in the background whilst writing today and this seemed a good laundry-day fragrance.

Re: SotD Tuesday 17 November

HAHAHAH! Genius! (I don't agree, but brilliant description :D ).

Taolady - that sounds like it could be Jardins de Bagatelle... or any number of scents actually, but that's the first one that...

Re: SotD Monday 16 November

I'm the antithesis to all those doing a No-Repeat-November. You might as well call me No-Change-November. In Daim Blond again today!

(((Taolady))) that was very touching.

Re: SotD Sunday 15 November

What a great day out, Libertine! :) I was enticed by the Miroirs-range, but not enough to buy... the bready-smelling one is particularly clever!

I ate almost a whole punnet of strawberries (after...

Re: career change to fragrance

If you think you can deliver training and have done so in the past (or better still, have some experience as a trainer in a job or a relevant qualification), that's definitely a good way to enter the...

Re: Your "I want it I want it!" list

Promesse de l'aube. Basically. WANT. I don't care how much it costs any more; figured if I stop buying "hey, quite nice!" for a few months, I could better justify this. So far I've managed to walk...

Re: Basenotes Seal of Approval.

This. 100%

I find the idea of an official seal really abhorrent.

It's already very tricky for consumers to navigate the existing "seals" (many of which hold questionable standards and are just...

Re: SotD Saturday 14 November

Ooh, not locked yet! I was in Daim Blond again. I've gone through so much of it in the last month the "ick, juice is low" - nerves are kicking in. Which, as we all know, is extremely silly.

Re: what are you reading?

I've seen "Let the right one in" as a film; it was very good, super creepy and had a lovely rhythm to it.

I've just finished reading "Lies, damned lies and science" by Sherry Seethaller. It's gone...

Re: S o t D Wednesday 11 November

I'm frazzled and in two zones: work-head-deeply-screwed-on-zone and my-husband-has-the-swine-flu-zone, which leaves not a lot of room for anything else right now.

Wore Eau Dynamissante yesterday...

Re: What are your most nostalgic scents and why?

That's very sweet, ubu :)

Lovely stories in this thread! I love stories and perfumes and the personalities we assign to the scents through our own experiences. I find it completely fascinating.

Re: November 09 purchases

I bought the A-Z paperback even though I have the original hardback AND paid for all of the newsletters in-between. Books & perfumes = a winning combination for me, I'm 'fraid :D

Re: Guerlain Idylle

I think people should consider two things:

- It's pointless declaring something smells like X or Y as a fact because the way in which we experience and mentally process scents is so subjective and...

N_Tesla, you're in one of my all-time faves :) I think it's one of those hidden true gems.
