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

Baccarat Rouge 540 · Maison Francis Kurkdjian
Sometimes as an Evil Aries ™️ I like to look at my collection, giggle and pick this one because the online discourse of it smelling like a doctors/dentist office and most recently…an open wound??

Samsara Eau de Toilette (1989) · Guerlain
Post- L'Heure Bleue wear was trying to pick myself up with something brighter and grabbed this. I have sampled this three times in the last two weeks (two fragrance shops on holiday and duty free)

L'Heure Bleue · Guerlain
...but that's about it, sadly! 😪 I wanted so very much to love this but I'm finding myself trying too hard to connect with it and ultimately if I'm honest I'm not finding it pleasant to wear. The

Tropic of Capricorn · Olympic Orchids Artisan Perfumes
My husband and I have been listening to Jurassic Park on Audible on long drives and when we work on a puzzle together (which we do a lot, we are perfect for each other lol). I wanted something that

Maya · Tocca
Husband and I were going to go to our favorite café on his day off but we forgot they're closed on Mondays. So we're chillin' at home in the AC because it's gonna be HOT today, and it is perpetually

Libre Le Parfum · Yves Saint Laurent
Wore Libre Le Parfum today and it was exactly the mood I wanted warm, rich and feminine with that beautiful lavender running through the sweetness. The vanilla and honey give it this deep, almost

Funerie · Pineward Perfumes
Overall I wasn’t super into Pineward, but they’ve got some bangers. Funerie is really interesting; off the bat I get hit with smoke and mushrooms. The incense and woody notes soon become more

Eilish · Billie Eilish
I love this scent so much. It means nothing to you, but this smells like my best friend back in the day. She layered everything with a vanilla body mist, and this just smells like her. I feel like I
Paula
Eau Nabati · Diptyque
This is an absolute masterclass in contrasts by perfumer Fabrice Pellegrin. Imagine sitting in the shade of palm trees while a dry, warm wind carries the scent of exotic spices, earth, and eating

Alexandria II · Xerjoff
But to me, it smells divine. It certainly took some getting used to, though. It smelt horrendous when I first sampled it - a dirty-diaper, barnyard, chemical-acetate sort of smell. Well, well, well…

Bodacious · Boadicea the Victorious
Enjoying the start of my vacation with a book and some bread baking! Picked this scent to try today. It’s a lovely cherry up front, but I also got a strong earthy scent underneath that doesn’t speak

Tribute · Amouage
If we have any Muslim friends here this reminds me of my brother in laws very secret oud bakhoor! DISCLAIMER: I am not Muslim myself so I hope my video is respectful. If not please tell me, it’s just

Chance Eau Fraiche Eau de Parfum · Chanel
Another week begins!! Not sure what I'm doing today at work since I'm headed to a new job site, so I picked Chance Eau Fraiche to cover all the bases. Fresh, woody, and good for indoors or outdoors.

Memoir Man · Amouage
Memoir Man was a late discovery for me, but quickly entered my top three Amouage next to Overture Man & Jubilation XXV. To me, this is a smooth, sexy mint-chocolate tobacco. The longer it sits, the

Olwyn · Fantôme
Fiancé is away for a week which means I get to wear all of my jasmine perfumes that he hates 😏 tbh I’m not even that into white florals but I don’t get this opportunity very often. So why not! This

Bits of Me · Olfactory House
Testing this lovely scent that reminds me of my grandmother: powdery, vintage makeup, inviting, and simple. It can get heavy in the heat, but I imagine it’ll be lovely the colder it is. Now time to
Lambkin
Angélique Noire · Guerlain
I tested Angelique Noire years ago and wasn't fond of it which is unusual because I usually like everything remotely vanilla by Guerlain. I was recently sent another sample; my opinion has changed. I

L'Heure Bleue · Guerlain
I saw the delivery email as I got through the door from the airport and then couldn't possibly put another perfume on until I'd got chance to try this one! I see what people say about a few things
Old Leaves
Soleil de Jeddah - Mango Kiss · Stephane Humbert Lucas 777
This is a lovely solar, green mango. The chamomile is this slight herbal note that I really enjoy—a slight bitterness. This isn’t a ripe mango, not juicy, but very fresh with natural sweetness.

Wild Poppy · Nest
Smooth rose and jasmine with bright and juicy raspberry and apricot. It's a bit sweeter than I usually like, and i accidentally did two sprays, which was a mistake! But it's very pretty. Hopefully it

Musk Therapy · Initio
I had a nice sniff session today, so I'll be spamming a bit. Finally, I managed to try several Initios. I'll rank them below with a rough initial scoring. 1. Musk Therapy (5/5) - Amazing opening and

Inaugural spray of Glossier You happening today! Prepping a completely blank canvas right now (shower + scent-free Cetaphil cream) so I can get a true read on my skin chemistry. I am hoping the

Rosa Carnivora · Dries van Noten
Medicinal on the nose on first spray, which I didn’t love (I think that’s how my nose is picking up the pink pepper and patchouli), but the dry down smells very clean - light rose, somewhat

Kin · Harry’s
Final spray from my Harry’s discovery kit. This was my least favorite of the three, but it’s still a good fragrance. Very impressed by the whole line. For the price, it’s an easy pick up. $35 for a
