Office Game Face

Insanely busy day today — with an extra early start, just to top it off (what joy is ours!). But the silver linings — the rosy-gold fingers of early light touching this neck of the woods, and an

Because I love durian notes

This version of Durian note leans into the gasoline aspect when on my skin. I got a quick flash of sweet yellow-orange colored fruit too. As the heart comes in I get some white floral, but that gas

Blue Talisman Extrait · Ex Nihilo

I wanted to do a comparison after wearing Demon Dancer several times. There is some overlap with the orange blossom for sure, but I think they are quite different overall in how the orange blossom

Multi frag days

Lately I’ve felt the need to swap fragrances multiple times through the day - I think part of it is the heat and that they wear off, maybe part is boredom, and part is just excitement at having so

Le Beach · Le Monde Gourmand

Smelling good while doing chores

If I have to spend the day inside doing chores, I’m going to make sure I smell yummy the whole time! I did my usual combo of EOS Coconut Waters lotion then a few sprays of Le Beach. It’s perfect for

A Hectic Morning!

I was planning to take today off for some appointments, but my coworker needed my help so I ended up going to work. It was quite last minute trying to make it to the appointment on time, but

Coco Shimmy · Snif

A nice summer day

Testing this sample on my skin for the first time. I quite enjoy the sweetness of this for the more typical summer suntan lotion type smell this has. I’ve always been drawn to scents like this. Might

Nio · Xerjoff

Just sampling

I was quite hyped for this as the notes and composition should be a definite summer winner but I am just not that impressed. It does smell citrusy, green as well clean but somehow the most prominent

Bal d'Afrique Absolu · Byredo

Bal Absolu First Sniff!

I loved the Bal d'afrique OG sample last week so I wanted to sample the Absolu now! So far it's surprising similar, just with an extra kick of sweetness and power. I think despite prefering the

Lively Up Yourself · Marley Fragrance

Makes me feel “Pretty”

Feels like walking through a flower garden after a rain fall in the spring where the flowers are just booming with different scents and energy. This is one of those scents that makes you feel

Surprise WFH day

My only in person client canceled so I got to stay home today 😍 woke up and had the urge to put on JHAG Not a Perfume alone bc i wanted to smell clean. Then wanted to test out Sol 59 and both of

Aoud Vanille · Mancera

Cozy & Focused

Settling in to get some work done with Aoud Vanille keeping me company. I wanted something warm today, vanilla in the air, that deep woody oud underneath, and just enough sweetness to make everything

Blue Hinoki · Tamburins

Something new tonight!

Shout out to @jbreezyyny for the recommendation. I echo his words in saying there’s an element of Another 13’s ethereal, catch-me-if-you-can musky ambroxan in this one. At the same time, though

Tilda Swinton Like This · Etat Libre D'Orange

Had to finish off the day with something snuggly, and figured I’d wear it to game night for an extra bit of comfort while I improvised my ass off (I have no one but myself to blame — I’m the GM & did

Banana Splush · Ori Russo

Sample Testing 1/4

A second wear for this one today. I’m exploring more from Ori Russo (Gallery by Flo is the best) and I’m excited to try the others. Banana Splush is warm and candy sweet. It’s a delicious, rich

Blue Talisman · Ex Nihilo

Am I just a slut for Akigalawood?

High on my unisex GOAT list. I’ve loved this frag since I first put my nose on it, but revisiting it after falling in love with Bois Imperial earlier this year and realizing that maybe I just love

Le Baiser Du Dragon · Cartier

What is going on?

The last time I tried this Cartier, it turned very sour and cloying on me, to the point I thought I was sold a fake 😪 Today for the sake of the experiment I sprayed it on a paper strip, and... It

Silky Woods · Goldfield & Banks Australia

Revisiting this with a second day in a row of wear, and I think I haven't given this enough of a chance. It's smooth, pleasant and neither overly sweet nor gourmand for my taste; the smokiness

Amazone (2017) · Hermès

I am trying this because I read that it shares qualities with Lauren by Ralph Lauren and I am not disappointed. It has a very similar vibe and it gives me comfort and a feeling of security to know

Exploring a bunch of Eight & Bob frags, been wanting to explore them for a while. The samples I got are lovely, but some are too masculine for me. I do enjoy some fragrances that fall into men’s, but

Sharply aquatic

Big fan of this. Wish I could find the original Fahrenheit Aqua, but it appears to be another classic that's been discontinued. It's clean and sharp, but not necessarily fresh. The violet still

Summer panic

As it’s cooling down here and very much feels like the last days of summer, I’m feeling a pang of panic to get wearing some of my summer scents. Do Son is a beautiful white floral, non white floral

Jasmin Bonheur · Guerlain

White florals for breakfast

Though this doesn't quite come through as the A&M jasmine dream I'd hoped it would be - I think the apricot note takes it too far into 'yogurt' territory for what I enjoy - it's still a fun, floral
