Hello to you all.

I’m wearing an old Avon perfume this morning - Far Away Exotic. Not sure why or when I bought this one but it needs using up. Maybe it will take me away from this monotonous, rainy weather to warmer climes.

Sending (( )) to those needing them right now.

Picture-book spring weather here: 70F/20C and sunny, but chilly enough at night for good sleeping. Perfect for Day #6 of my spring break perfume rotation, which is Qi by Ormonde Jayne. Yet another scent I was introduced to by birthday girl @Ebenas and her eclectic taste.

This osmanthus scent is almost identical to Osmanthe Yunnan by Hermes, except that Qi has a lightly resinous base, where the Hermes has no real base at all, just the classic Ellena profile of a gossamer, linear veil. As a result, Qi has a bit more longevity, but they're both quite ephemeral, though Qi does come in an "intensivo" version that I haven't tried. Both overpriced, too, for what they are: simple tea scents with apricot and a touch of suede shouldn't cost $2.40-2.80/ml. Still, I'm glad to own a fat decant, since I've never met an osmanthus scent I didn't like, and it does go awfully well with spring.

Mancera Roses Vanille

Rosehippy tea roses and vanilla.
It's fine. I'm probably running errands this afternoon, and this will fade into something inoffensive by the time I leave the house.
Last of a sample - will not be replacing.

Have a great day everyone!
