By the way, I have moved the older FFD SOTD discussions to here, to give you some more room to talk about perfume

Morning all!

(((((@Kotori)))))

Welcome back @foxbins, love the pic. More, please!

Our clocks went forward last night for the start of "British summertime", so l'm a little bleary-eyed after losing an hour's sleep, but looking forward to walking home from work in daylight later.

l'm wearing Flower Market for another long shift today, & there's probably only one or two wears left in my bottle...

Hello all.

Ligea "La Sirena" by Carthusia

For some unknown reason, I had this marked as owned when I still own it? Perhaps I was going to give it away and then changed my mind? Who knows.

 

[JON RODGERS]

Good morning all !. Sending positive vibes to (((Kotori))).

Open-mouthed at the utter devastation following the tornado in Mississippi. Mother Nature really can be a cruel and indiscriminate mistress 😲

Amouage Lyric.

Weekend synching with Malin + Goetz Stem

Today - I'm getting more floral notes than stem notes.
Becomes a fancy airy floral soap after an hour on my skin.
For fancy airy floral soap - it's not bad.
I'm just not a fan of perfumes that mimic fancy airy floral soap.

At least my skin isn't doing anything tragic to Stem - unlike many other fragrances in this category where the base feels like someone is suffocating me with orange Dial bar soap.

I guess that's a win.

Hello and best to everyone. 🫂❤️ Joining the Chanel wearers with N° 22 today.

 

[strangelight]

First time properly wearing Le Cri (Parfum d'Empire).
Unfortunately, I'm finding my opinion unchanged from when I first tried this in that I love the first 10 minutes in all their sparkling iris glory, but then rose comes fully to the forefront as the dominant note for me, and I guess my ambivalence about rose leaves me underwhelmed by the scent as a whole.
The opening really is so beautiful though, I wish it lasted longer.
@tdem1961 I really need to try 22 now that I've gotten over my aldehyde-phobia. Do you like any of the current/recent formulations?

Good morning! Wearing Creed Wind Flowers from a decant.



Have a nice Sunday!

Good afternoon all. I completely forgot the clocks changed and woke up at the usual time, but late. It's quite odd and has left me feeling a little bamboozled.

Trying 4160 Tuesdays - Paris 1948, as a weekend sync choice. A chypre re-imagining of a classic french perfume. Peach is quite dominant, though to my nose not true peach. I am hoping that will lessen as it dries down, not that it's unpleasant, but with a woody, mossy addition, a little odd.

Hugs to those that need it and hope that today is a better day.

Hi @strangelight, my 22 is edt from Les Exclusifs, and I’ve had this bottle since I think 2012 or so. I haven’t tried current or recent but I’d be curious - I say give it a shot. 😊

Foxbins, wonderful photo. I wouldn't have thought that tigers lounged in rivers. I'm with Teardrop: more photos please. And I hope you got to experience some great Indian food, too.

It's raining here today, in that perfect spring way -- soft, slightly warm, nothing stormy about it. In searching for something for the weekend sync, I was surprised by how many appropriate green florals and chypres I had, given my self-described floraphobia. I pulled out a bunch to go through them this week, and am starting with an old favorite: original "Y" by Yves Saint Laurent, a scent that goes all the way back to high school for me. My best friend, whose family was rich while mine was poor, had "Y" and various Diors on her dresser, which were a revelation to me after a lifetime of Avon.

Green, bright, buoyant, hopeful. Just like spring.
