I was being a mad woman with a credit card and no inhibitions last night and I ALMOST bought the full size of this. But I stopped myself. It’s not that it’s expensive; it’s that my cart was already

I forgot how much I love it
Wearing this yesterday, I had forgotten how much I love it. It lasts all day on my skin and found myself still catching whiffs as I was getting ready for bed. I decided to go for it again today, this

Bois Doré · Van Cleef Arpels
Very mild
A lovely scent, just the right amount of aggression in the opening. It's a very intimate smoky, sweet musk and spice; this has almost no projection. It has slightly more sillage, however; it will

Cuir Nilam · Atelier Materi
Not for me
This is one I love on sample paper but on my skin it just doesnt work. It reminds me of the leather souks in Marrakech, but the curing part rather than the lovely sun baked leather. It made me think

Floral immersion
Today I received the body wash to go along with the body lotion, hand lotion and perfume oil i already own. The roll-on design of the oil allows for direct application to pulse points including the

Surprise! The boyfriend is coming to my place for once
Today is nothing but a deep clean day, not because he would notice, but because I would (& do!). Today has been nothing but vacuuming every nook & crevice, scrubbing base boards, & sweeping, mopping

Hawai'i-testing my love + a realization
Gifted this bottle not long after it came out, never wore it (or anything) before starting this hobby in June. One of my top 5ish faves. Seeing if appropriate for Hawai'i. It's not tropical, but I

Sample testing!
I have hundreds of samples and discovery sets I need to get through, so I'm trying to test at least one per day. I picked up a Superz discovery set at FragCon, so I'm starting with that. Aura starts

Ending the week with a soft landing
This fragrance is aptly named. I am tired after a long week and wanted to retreat to clean and cozy. It provides that and then some. I wanted comfort today- not planning putting on my dancing shoes

Incident Diplomatique · Jovoy Paris
A couple sprays of Incident before bed
I'm not a vetiver guy, but the way it's worked here feels entirely different from the grassy, rooty variety that usually rubs me the wrong way. It's dark, smoky, and brooding - the scent of a quiet

@curlyhen reminded me that I have a travel of this that has not been tested. And visiting rehab today so this is an inoffensive visitor scent. I think I am a bit offended though. I love sandalwood

Demon Dancer · Ex Nihilo
After two fails this morning, I had to go with something I know I love. This has been such a good recent pickup. So fresh with its tartness and semi sweetness. The green note from the rhubarb is

Wear testing for fall
I'm wear testing a sample of this today, and God, I do love a chypre in autumn. Dryad is a stunning modern chypre, all sunshine, woods, and dry leaves. It's incredibly well-blended and well-balanced

Completely ozonic. I smell like a blue sky.
I don't get many of the other notes that people express when reviewing this one. I don't get blueberry. I don't get vanilla. No oakmoss. To me, it's completely ozonic. It smells like a blue sky, or

Five O'Clock Au Gingembre · Serge Lutens
Jumping into fall
Yesterday I wanted to smell like summer but today I’m leaning into fall. I really enjoy this scent but have to be in the right mood and weather for it. It’s very barely sweet to my nose and mostly

In a vintage state of mind
Another Chypre I wore in my earlier years. I believe my splash bottle is from around 1991 but not definitively. This one seems less dense than I remember from the 70's but still quite good. I've

Sword of War · Yom & Layl
Barbershop week finale
This one leans so old school, it's hard to believe it's modeled after Creed's Viking that was released in 2017. Sword of War is sharp enough to cut through the cool morning air, reflecting the depth

Need some comfort but not too much
Trauma is blowing up right now and too many people don’t want to work hard and be a team player. I left work at 9:30pm and was back by 5am. I am on a 28hr call shift tomorrow and then I finally get

It’s Friiiiiiiday! 🙌🏼🙌🏼
Back to the Miller Harris discovery set today. It’s a gloomy, grey day. Constant rainfall and 12 degrees (52f). I was apprehensive about Peau Santal as I can find cashmere and sandalwood tricky notes

I’m going to do my layering test during daytime hours today as I’m working from home and therefore can experiment to my heart’s desire. This one would have been fine even if I wasn’t WFH today, since

Friday night...
I don't smoke but, if I did, I would want to smell like this. It's aromatic soft cigarette smoke. An elegant smoker. Maybe they smoke lights (?). Maybe from an old fashioned cigarette holder so it

This is more sweet, gourmand, and spicy than Angel, but less earthy and less conflicted. The spices are tuned just right, as the sweetness is a tenuous balance between delicious and nauseous. The

This week, I've been introducing them to my chocolate-patchouli Cerberus. They experienced Pardon on Wednesday, which most of them enjoyed, although some really didn't. The general consensus was
