Monday scent of the day 12/5

Posted by Robin on 5 December 2016 212 Comments

seedling

It's Monday, and it's World Soil Day! What fragrance are you wearing?

I'm in good old Terre d'Hermès.

Reminder: 12/9 will be Best Buy Friday — wear your favorite fragrance purchase of 2016. If you didn't buy anything this year, pick a favorite from a prior year.

And for those of you who like to plan ahead, see Scent of the day ~ Friday community projects 2016, where I'll try to always have the next five or six weeks mapped out in advance.

    L’Homme Sage (Divine). I really should wear this more often! :)

        I have a decant, enough to last me several more years. This is powerful stuff, it is definitely suited to winter weather, at least for me.

    A (relatively) old favorite today, Hilary Duff With Love. Sadly, the top notes have gone a bit off. Wearing a celeb perfume made me remember an even better celeb perfume, Kate Walsh Boyfriend, which I really should have bought when I still had the chance. :(

        Sarah Jessica Parker’s Stash is a good celebrity fragrance too.
        I rarely, if ever, buy a celebrity fragrance but I like this one.

    Had a great weekend, went to see the tree at Rock center, it was so crowded we had to take our little monkey out of the stroller and carry her around! Also went to a tree lighting & caroling at a park in the upper east side. Busy weekend.
    We had some friends come back from Paris, most people who know me know my love for tea, so they brought back a container from MF. Fantastic black tea and I am very grateful for their generosity.

    I didn’t know this weeks community project this morning, I am in Shalimar Ode a la Vanille Sur la route de Madagascar and some Shalimar body powder. I know a lot a people love the Mexique version, but this version suits me better.

    Happy Monday folks!

    SOTD is Heeley “Sel Marin”; it’s a sunny (but cold) day in Paris and as our new office has floor-to-ceiling windows this one should be helping me feel all Summery. I would rate its chances higher if it would persist longer than 30 minutes. I guess it’s based on a British or Irish Summer! :^)

    Anyway, for seaside scents I have still found nothing to beat Profumum Roma “Acqua di Sale”, although Phaedon “Sable et Soleil” is a worthy rival.

    I love that photo! Just beautiful.

    Summer has returned with a vengence so I’m sporting Corsica Furiosa, my bestest summer buddy. I’ve missed it, but not the weather that goes with it.

    I took T-Rex for a walk downtown last night to see the holiday decorations and the horses (she did wonderful with her sit/down stays while they loomed over her) and by the end of our walk, I was sweating and she was panting. 80 something at 7pm at night. Really? Ugh.

    Yep, it’s Monday.

        It’s a good one! I like most of what I have tried in this line and would love to explore more but the 100ml only size is a bit off putting to me. And, as I’ve mentioned before, the bottle and spray mechanism is absolutely top notch.

            Are you speaking of splitting Corsica Furiosa? I actually bought a FB of it a while back because I knew it would be a staple for me here in the swamp and I most likely would use it regularly. I’m happy to send you a decant if you like. You can reach me at t a i g a 1 0 1 in the land of yahoolaginism.

          Thanks for your kind offer – I misunderstood your comment, thinking you were holding back on a FB due to the size. I am happy you have it, no need to send me any, I have a few mls left of my decant and I won’t wear it again until next summer.

            No worries, I probably wasn’t very clear. I love Cuir Ottoman, but its an example of one I cannot wear regularly in this climate and 100ml bottle would not be cost effective. Love Amber Russe as well. Also Musc Tonkin. And Tabac Tabou. Equistrius….so MANY!!

    I’m in Lyric Woman today. I’m almost tempted to wear it all week and that ties in to a little project I might do for myself soon with my scents. Pick one to wear for a full week. I’m down to literally a handful of samples now and the rest are all bottles (with the exception of two minis and two 10ml vials). I’d had the idea of wearing a scent/week bouncing around since this summer when I decided to cut down on all the samples. Something to think about….

    Unlocked a new home ownership achievement this weekend: watching the hubby get on the roof to put up xmas lights. It’s terrifying to think that we as humans do such ridiculous things that endanger our lives for the sake of decor. Seriously, it makes me wonder how we ended up like this.
    Funny thing was, for as gung-ho as the hubby was to clamber on the roof and do the lights I then had to talk him down because he panicked, froze and then couldn’t figure out what to do to get down.

      I like your wear-it-all-week idea. I did 5 days in a row of Ambre Narguile. I was utterly beguiled with the fragrance and couldn’t help myself. Plus it was nice to have a go-to scent that didn’t require decision-making in the morning. Reminded me of the good old days when I wore the same scent for months on end and had 3 bottles of scent to choose from. 8O

        Oooh three bottles of perfume! That sounds…. really nice.
        Of course I fell down the rabbit hole with scent when I first started several years ago and wanted ALL THE PERFUME, but now I’ve snapped myself back and realized I don’t need nor even want it all. I just want a few specific ones that I know work for me. And if it means paring everything down to a small collection that may look like I’m limiting myself – I’m totally ok with that.

          And that is kinda why I want to challenge myself to do this one scent per week test ;) I’m normally put off by wearing a scent for too long as well. So I’m thinking if I can tolerate it for a week, then it’s definitely one that is deserving of being in my wardrobe.

      About six inches to a foot of dark brown soil over sticky terracotta-coloured clay. The clay has rounded pebbles in it, so twelve thousand years ago or so it’s likely that this was laid down by meltwater as the glaciers retreated from the ice age. In the local parks there are several little collections of boulders that have been shown to come from Scotland, several hundred miles north.

      Your husband probably was a can in his previous life. Be glad you could talk him down and didn’t need to call fire-fighters ;)

      For the last probably 3 years (at least) I’ve been doing the following: I wear only those perfumes that I own and love (it can be either a bottle or a decant but it’s something that I got into my collection with the purpose of wearing). In the evenings (if I’m not going out) I would test 2-3 perfumes from the samples I have but I never wear perfume from the samples – not unless I’m considering the purchase and want to be sure that I like it before committing. But I wouldn’t be able to do a week per perfume – or I’ll end up not wearing some of my favorites for … years (before I start blushing about the size of my collection: remember, I’m counting purchased decants as well, not just FBs).

      We have a very old ultisol over karst here. If you don’t tend a piece of land it tends to go into bushes and small native trees (10 years), then cedars (Juniperus virginiana, 50-80 years), then larger hardwoods.

      My soil is sand. I’m living on a peninsula dangling off a bigger peninsula. It equates to a very large sand bar. The threat of rising seas and hurricanes makes me a little twitchy, I must say.

      Awww, your red dirt reminded me of when I lived in Oklahoma. Red dirt is quite prevalent there. But in my current back yard in PA is basic dark soil. I don’t really know how else to describe it.

      When buying or selling any amount of land here, soil type is a huge part of the advertising by the realtor, especially for horse farms! Maury Silt Loam is the gold standard here (loose, brown soil).

      Chalky clay here – part of the basin that London sits on I think. Though our house is on a slope and the garden’s been landscaped in a way that means we have an upper terrace with plenty of rich soil and a lower one which is pretty much grass-covered subsoil.

    1) Damp and very cold- not quite cold enough for snow on the valley floor, but almost. Cold enough and damp enough to feel it in your bones. Am wearing a big old cream colored Irish wool sweater, denim skirt and leggings. After work will work out hard and do some time in the sauna!

    2) Am in Cuir de Russie. So perfect for today!

    Vanilla Hinoki oil today. Something registers as ginger to me even though none listed. It reminds me of the those Chime’s ginger chews.

      I smell a bit of ginger + lemongrass in Vanilla Hinoki, and the drydown has a bit of something fresh and cool bordering on minty but thankfully nowhere near toothpaste. Yummy.

        I don’t get much in the way of mint, but I also tried Geisha Rouge, I think it was the Rouge, which smelled very minty.

          Nice tip on the Geisha Rouge. Thank you! I want to try more scents from aroma M.

          And you inspired me to go sniff Vanilla Hinoki again. You’re right, the “cool” note is more resinous than minty.

          Such an interesting scent, the whole is greater than the sum of the parts.

    Oooohhhh nooooo. This is a no no no no no. On me. Adjatay. Leather, gasoline, and cheap sugary cookies from the discount bin in the supermarket–you know that chemically baking smell of well preserved baked goods made with real “butter flavor” concocted in a lab. Ostensibly there is tuberose, but I don’t want to sniff all the hard to find it. Unfortunately, I dropped the little dauber sample on my dresser. Hope I won’t have to live with this one for long.

    Has anyone else tried this one? How did it go for you?

    Commando so far today as I have a routine doctor appointment later. But I did put a bit of Mom’s Stuff salve on my elbow to sooth a rough patch of skin. My elbow smells like pine pitch and herbs. I think of Mom’s Stuff as a skin soother so until this moment I hadn’t thought much about how nice it smells.

      Not familiar with that one, but I utterly adore the smell of Porter’s Liniment Salve. (Quoting from the tin, ingredients are “Chlorobutanol, Cresylic Acid, Zinc Oxide, Oil of Cloves, Camphor, Ammonia, Oil Cajeput, Oil Sassafras, Myrrh, in a base of Petrolatum, Lanolin and Beeswax.”)

      I cut my finger last night and was going to leave it open to the air, but I should probably put some Porter’s and a band-aid on.

        Oh my gosh, Porter’s sounds divine. Sassafras and myrrh make me think of root beer on tap in an old time-y pharmacy & general store. Lanolin and beeswax smell so nice to me too.

    SOTD so far is Masque Milano Romanza. I got a sample of it and this is about the 3rd time I’ve tried it and it’s about to be scrubbed. I really have hated it each time. I try to give it awhile due to the great reviews it gets but something in it just sets my teeth on edge. Nasty sweet bug juice.

    SOTD = Le Labo Vanille 44

    I was inspired by Undina’s latest post on the search for the perfect vanilla. Do hop on over there to read it and get a chance to enter the giveaway (of a different perfume).

    M. Micallef Door # 4 (one day late reporting) – Ananda Dolce. On first sniff, I got almond, fruit, aldehyde, amber, tonka. Upon checking Fragrantica, I was happy that I got almond, fruit, amber and tonka right. What I thought was aldehydes turned out to be peach that sometimes gives off a bright fizz (kind of like what apple smells like to me besides smelling like apples). There’s also white flowers but it was subtle enough to not register on my brain. This is sorth a full wearing.

    Shopping tip of the day – if an umbrella comes with operating instructions, it’s too complicated to use and, therefore, not a good gift.

        Thank you! Now I need to pay attention to product design from a lefty / righty standpoint. Normally, lefty products are marked as such. I just bought an alarm clock (not marked for lefties) for mom and I was wondering why she was having a bit of trouble with it and realized that it was actually more suitable for lefties (me) with the buttons requiring more dexterity on the left side of the cube with the display facing me.

      I was recently researching different umbrellas (I was looking for a gift), and I’d wholeheartedly agree with you: an umbrella that requires any special instructions can’t be a good idea – either as a gift, or as an item for personal use.

    Hello, NST. I survived management team. I was not rude to anyone, and I did not descend to flicking paper clips at rambling, self-interested malfeasants. I do confess that I called a report ‘batty’, ‘skewed’ and ‘unfit for purpose’, but that probably won’t be minuted. Perhaps it should be.

    On my way home, I tried Galop again. It really is very, very pretty. But no. NO! No Galop!

    Today I smell sweet and a bit conservative: I’m wearing Alaia over its own body lotion, and I used to like it a lot. Today, it’s just an undistinguished prettiness, mostly concerning violets. The interesting parts flashed before my nose and faded away fast, leaving me with this vague pale purple, rather dull little floral. Huh! It’s not awful, just not edgy. I expected more, and I swear it used to deliver more. Maybe my bad skin chemistry is in play.

    Best to all.

      Ahh, Galop! It would be good to support Christine Nagel in her new role at Hermes…a sisterly act of kindness. Plus, you need to buy perfume now in case the new PM bans imports from France or increases perfume taxes….or, what a fine way to mark the departure of John Key…and that’s just for starters. Also, astrologically speaking…women born in May are destined to wear Galop…also Karen Kay, who wrote an advice column back in the 1980s for the Women’s Weekly, would certainly encourage such a purchase. Just think of it as art.

    I’m working at home and blithely decided today was the day to try out the self-cleaning feature on my oven. I DID NOT EXPECT SO MUCH SMOKE/BURNING SMELL. Admittedly, the oven was pretty bad. I tried out my sample of Replica: By the Fireplace, thinking it would fit right in, but it’s very much a vanilla scent. Smells much better than my house, but still not my thing.

      And now I am feeling nostalgic about that smell…. the self-cleaning oven that is! In 2012 we moved to our current house, which has (beloved by hipsters, annoying to those of us who love to roast and bake anything bigger than a q-tip) an early 1940s Wedgewood stove. The trick with the self-cleaning ovens is to do it fairly frequently…

        A friend of mine has a restored 1940s oven – she posts pics of it all the time on fb. It’s beautiful, but I always wince when I imagine trying to cook a full Thanksgiving with it!

          Yup… Me at the butcher.

          Attendant: Can I help you?

          Me: Yes, I’d like a p. . . f#%* (inaudible) turkey.

          Attendant: I’m sorry ma’am, what kind of turkey?

          Me: a pff. . .#%* (inaudible)

          Attendant: A pretty turkey?

          Me: Sigh. (Looks around and hopes no one can hear). A petite turkey. You know. Smallish. (Sees the turkey the attendant is holding.) Ah, no. About half that size.

      How does that feature work? I tried it once, but seems like nothing happened, at least no cleaning :(

        Maybe you have very well-behaved food. :)

        It varies from oven to oven, but it usually works by sealing the door shut with a little latch, and heating up to 500+ degrees for 3-4 hours. This reduces all the grease/food bits/etc. to ash. When it’s over you just wipe the ash out of the bottom of the oven. It worked like a charm for me, but my house smelled pretty bad.

      OMG I learned the hard way not to do this in the winter. Only do it if you can open all the windows, the fumes nearly asphyxiated us all.

    I am wearing Sylvaine Delacourte Florentina again. I had to order a bottle since I quickly finished my sample and that rarely happens. I received my order today and the packaging is out of this world. The scent itself is a simple one, so easy to wear and each time I wear it, I want to wear it more.

      Are you ordering directly from France? I have been too scared to order perfume from overseas to ship to Canada as I have heard horror stories of confiscated packages.

    After an exhausting, but rewarding day, just a brief visit to NST. My perfume today is Satin Doll. Lovely in an understated way.

    SOTD Guerlain Cruel Gardenia.

    I just received the 20ml spray purchased from ebay on a whim (twas a very good deal at $30!), and oh my it is a beautiful white floral bouquet. Not particularly gardenia-y or edgy(why ‘cruel’? is it the price point?) though. It is going strong 4 hrs post application :D

        It was serendipitous :) Ebay was doing a $15 off $75 flash deal when I found a set of 20ml Rose Barbare & 20ml Cruel Gardenia for $75- so $30 apiece :D

      Wow, $30! I thought it was quite nice, though as you say, neither cruel nor gardenia.

        Yes it reminds me of Creed Fleur de Gardenia (which i don’t own and don’t remember too well) in that it is a beautiful nondescript white floral bouquet that is not interesting enough to purchase a full size bottle :P

    Perhaps swayed by seeing a review for another Hiram Green, I’m wearing Voyage and loving it on a drippy, slushy day.

    I’m wearing Dilettante today. It was snowing a bit earlier but it’s too warm for it to stick. Lovely to watch while it lasted.

      I have yet to see a real snowflake this season. I saw plenty of the fake ones on Ugly sweaters.

    My new decant of Mon Parfum Cherie Par Camille arrived just in time for a light application on my way to work. I suspected that I would like it, and I was so right. I love it!

    I had a really festive weekend of Christmas bazarre’s, Christmas tree festival in the village church and carol service, Fille en Aiguille complimented the activities perfectly.
    SOTD; portrait of a Lady, faded now and have just reapplied with Fleur Oriental by Miller Harris, lovely and cosy.

    I’m wearing DelRae Emotionelle. I love melon in fragrance. It’s controversial but I don’t care. I love the smell and taste of fruit.

      It’s my second favourite DelRae (Amoureuse is first), and I love it. It feels like Le Parfum de Thérèse’s insouciant younger sister.
