Scents of the day, with the moment they were worn in.

Alcantara Supreme · Montagne Parfums
We're getting a ton of wildfire smoke moving down into Michigan, so I'm using Alcantara Supreme to fight fire with fire; this thing is fresh, clean, and extremely strong. The smoke is permeating the

Tierra Maya · Nissaba
I feel constantly drawn back to these fragrances and get antsy if I go a few days without wearing one, but simultaneously anxious because I only have these two as 2mls. Provence is a modern fougère -

En Passant · Frederic Malle
Super green spring floral. It’s mainly lilacs but some hyacinth in there, still wet from April showers. A little bit of dirty indole on opening that just makes it moorish. What I really love about

Soleil D'Hiver · Experimental Perfume Club
This was the equivalent scent I created during a perfume blending workshop at EPC in London (I named mine 'Atlas Rose' by the by) and it has become my "deep relaxing breath after a long day" scent.
Quacadile
Vanilla On The Beach · Gulf Orchid
So this is supposed to be based off of not only a drink, but Vanilla Royale Sugared Patchouli from Kayali as well, and it's not really hitting the mark. I'm on the fence about it as there are things

Colony · Jean Patou
This is a BIG pineapple ester bomb with a great woody counterpoint to it. This reminds me of the structure, not the smell, of Feminite du Bois and is more like Dolce Vita (two woody fruity legends).

Good Girl Gone Bad Extreme · Kilian
Good Girl Gone Bad (Extreme) is the first Kilian perfume I fell in love with and still my #1 from the house. This is a fascinating perfume to me, as it is floral, fruity, and gourmand all at the same
MagnifiScent
Musc Eternel · Mizensir
Despite being very delicate and sheer, Musc Eternel has some staying power. When I spray my skin before bed, I can detect trace amounts of the scent the next morning. Surprising performance for a
hellodust
Noir Anthracite · Tom Ford
I will forever be an evangelist for this sadly discontinued tom ford masterpiece. It’s clearly inspired by the robust green powerhouses of the 80s, inspiration that has brought us other TF green
Ducki
Molecule 01 + Champaca · Escentric Molecules
I have never intentionally smelled champaca until today to be honest with you. So my unseasoned nose perceived it as a bit bitter (but enjoyable) it’s also got a lil funk to it I can’t quite explain.
April
Persephone · Velixir
!!! This is good! Very very close to California Dream but I’d say Persephone doesnt have quite the same rind/pithy zesty/borderline bitter quality, and mandarin note in California Dream is definitely

Wood Sage & Sea Salt · Jo Malone
Dreaming of AC as I lie in the heat so I need something to keep me feeling cool after a cold shower. This beautiful scent is like a delicate ocean breeze that’s been blown across the Wild Atlantic

Torino21 · Xerjoff
Testing more mojito adjacent scents for the high heat. The mint is very fresh and realistic. I think it might be flirting a bit with cleaning product vibes though with the citrus. I think Yuma might
Marta
Dior Addict 2 · Dior
It is a fragrance with an undeniable carefree summer vibe. It opens with a fresh, citrusy burst, with grapefruit taking centre stage over orange and bergamot. In the hart the fruity notes of

For Her Intense (2025) · Narciso Rodriguez
All hail the King of Musk, Narciso Rodriguez! This is supposed to have a peach top note but I always find it to be cherry 🍒 to my nose. Regardless, this is another beautiful strong musk that just
Tea Leaf
Love Story Eau de Parfum · Chloé
Finally got this in the mail! Been coveting it since I smelled a sample in my sister’s ancient vial collection, and I found a bottle only 1/10th used on Mercari for a relative steal! Super bright

Meant to be Seen · Nishane
The wildfire smoke from Canada is starting to seep in to my area, making everything look hazy. This has a haze of powdery musk over everything. So curious how this will compare to Velvet Violet (also
ENari
Existence · Amouage
Working on some more artwork and running a few errands. Maybe Amouage Existence isn’t the first thing that comes to mind, but I was craving it! It’s beautiful and rich, but somehow great in the heat!
Jscajoy
Poeme de Sagano · Ella K Parfums
Fresh bright citrus with clean green bamboo. I’ve had the sample a while but have been more into fresh and green lately with the heat. I decided to go ahead and make the purchase today from

Jazmin Yucatan · D.S. & Durga
Another rainy day. This time, I picked something to better suit the weather. Jazmin Yucatan is an unusual, atmospheric jasmine. I really love white florals, so this one had caught my eye for awhile.

Insolence (2008) Eau de Parfum · Guerlain
Inspired by @lnoelkayhan Insolence, sitting pretty amongst her AAs yesterday, I thought I’d wear mine today. A violet and iris love bomb that is sparkling in the sunshine today. Powdery yet fresh
Samia 🌷
Milk Orchid · Commodity
I don’t like Milk Orchid on its own. It doesn’t match the description I’ve seen all over the internet - it’s super screechy to my nose and not milky at all. However, since I only have a small
Ivana
Balade De Figuier · Zara
On my mission to try every fig possible lol. This is Jo Malone for Zara and is currently on sale. The fig is very very light, barely there. It's mostly soapy and clean smelling. Sillage and longevity
Darkvanille
Golden Powder · The House of Oud
Many ppl compare this one to Bouquet Ideale but I’ve never tried it. It’s a beautiful woody vanilla scent with a nice touch of tobacco. I don’t tink it’s a unique scent but it’s just a nice one that
