Another Monday, plus Boston Cream Pie Day. It's also Mole Day, which has to do with chemistry and is more science than I can understand on a Monday morning. What fragrance are you wearing?
I'm in good old Fendi Theorema.
Reminder: 10/27 will be Guessing Game Friday. Describe your perfume to us, OR, give your perfume the name it ought to have had, and we'll see if we can guess what it is.
And for those of you who like to plan ahead, see Scent of the day ~ Friday community projects 2017, where I'll try to always have the next five or six weeks mapped out in advance.

Another warm, warm day. Wearing Seville L’aube. Struggling to keep my eyes open on a very busy day, so here it comes my 2nd cup of coffee (Bear, missing your triple-strengh coffee! Hope you are ok).
You smell lovely!
And pass the coffee.
Thank you! Passing the coffee to you now!
Hey, it got spilled!
Guessing Game:
I am in a beautiful oriental perfume, lemon, bergamont, rose and a heavy dose of vanilla. Famous gardens in India. This is a flanker
Is it the Mexique Shalimar?(sorry, can’t remember the real name)
Yes! The vanille flanker, Madagascar version
Yay! I’ve not smelled that version, but you make it sound very nice.
Its very nice, also using a little Shalimar body powder with it.
Well, I’m playing the game in an unlabeled sample I found, but it smells like amber and urine so I’m about to go wash it off….
Gross, and sorry!
Amber and Urine? Oh my… not good. Hope you find a great follow up, amber is a tough one to get off the skin!
both amusing (from a distance) and gross. Hope you come back with a new scent.
Inspired by Old Herbaceous’s wonderful review yesterday a few stolen spritzes of BFMV before leaving for work this morning.
I wore that last week. I hadn’t smelled it for a couple of years and had forgotten how great it is. I do love a smoky vanilla. (And a smoky anything, I’m discovering.)
and now i am in vintage Chanel no 22 EDC because I have discovered that my decant is evaporated
My lord, this is great stuff….I used to wear this like crazy in the late 70s…now i know why….it is so freakin’ good…and while I really like the current version it just isn’t as great as vintage.
Zoologist Civet.
And it is just too complex and fascinating for my ability to describe in words.
It has a wonderful mitsouko-peach note with a blast of cinnamon and terragon syrup which gives it a slight coca-cola feel.
I also smell propolis (a very medicinal smell, since it’s used in soar throat sprays and antiseptic mouth washes).
The freshly ground roasted coffee note appears as a ghost among woodsy cedar and juniper notes.
And I detect some vanilla incense (just like in Chergui) and linden honey or sweet amber (like in Eau Des Merveilles with it’s medicinal balsam of peru note)
Very interesting experience, like an orchestra of notes, a unique scent with retro (vintage chypre) feel.
I feel that it’s too herbal and aromatic to be actually sexy, but I have to wear it more times to form an opinion about how much I want to have it permanently.
I think you did a great job describing it!
Indeed.
Definitely!
Thank you!
Very glad to hear that your sample package arrived safely, and that you’re enjoying Civet! I know you were quite worried about the mail reaching you.
Thank you! I was relieved too.
During my workout Civet reminded me of Roudnitska’s Eau d’Hermes a lot.
Commando today, was going to repeat yesterday’s L’eau d’hiver which I LOVED but forgot in the early Monday morning rush
I was thinking just last night that even thinking about a fragrance that usually calms me down, helps to calm me down. I do wonder if fragrance memories somehow activate olfactory receptors. Probably science already knows the answer to this.
Anyway, what I meant was that you could pretend you’re wearing Hiver
that’s interesting. a lot of experiences relating to perfume seem catalytic, if i’m using that word correctly.
I struggled with chemistry and physics in high school, but one thing I remember as a gigantic lightbulb going on over my head was what a mole is – took me forever to figure out that it was a numeric constant, like “a dozen” (but way way bigger). So Happy Mole Day everyone.
SOTD is OJ Woman, which today seems more vetiver-y than usual.
Just told my B.S.-in-Chemistry daughter that today was Mole Day, and she said, “Oh, cool!” with no irony whatsoever.
She has an interview with a local materials-testing lab company tomorrow. I am so hoping that this job might work out, because it would be lovely to have her stay close by instead of moving away for career, and because the company owners are really wonderful people.
(I managed a B in college chemistry myself, but just barely.
)
Good luck to your daughter! I have so much respect for Chem majors. Chemistry was one of the hardest classes I took in college.
Thanks for explaining it *that* way, cuz I never quite got it. The only thingabout it that stuck with me was the cute mole (animal) imitation my HS science teacher used to do.
You smell great in Woman!
About to try some Iris Celadon and will weigh in later…
Hope you’ll like it!
My SOY was Theorema and after my shower I’m going to repeat and be a twin to Robin, which always leads to a happy nose.
Yes it does!
Long weekend of prepping and packing for my in-laws move to independent living, very poor sleep, trying to recover. Spritzed a little Like This while trying to rest (movers tomorrow.)
You smell cozy. Rest well!
I hope their move goes well. It’s a big change and very hard for many people, but I know of many who are happy once they’ve adjusted.
I’m going back to my rarely touched discovery sets. Up this week is ELDO. Today I’m in Dangerous Complicity. Whether you like ELDO as a brand or not, you have to admit they do very interesting fragrances.
Well, devil’s advocate here — I would like them better if more of their fragrances were more interesting? I don’t dislike the brand, and I love a few of the fragrances, but an awful lot of them were less interesting than they sounded, or maybe another way to put it is that I don’t see the brand as being anywhere near as transgressive as they think they are.
Mind you, only saying because you said I had to admit
That’s exactly how I’d describe JHAG, which I’ll admit to actively hating, and which is not transgressive at all beyond their nomenclature. ELdO I see as often being too cute for their own good and verging into silliness, if not into territory that I find offensive. That said, ELdO has put out some fragrances that I really love, so I roll my eyes occasionally while enjoying a lot of their output.
Agree, JHAG way less interesting than Eldo to me, absolutely not a one I even want to own or would be likely to use even if I got it free. Eldo, there are quite a few I would use, and several I would buy if I didn’t already own too much. But don’t dislike JHAG either. I think the only brands I really actively dislike are the boring brands that also charge huge sums of money.
I minored in chemistry, so a little mole humor for ya, free of charge…
Q: What do you get when you cut an avocado in 6x 10 to the 23 power pieces?
A: GuacaMOLE…..
Scent of the day is Acqua di Parma Magnolia Noble. Wearing a bit heavy in 100% humidity in the office, but it’s great!
LOL
I have a Masters in Physics. We had some chemistry:) But I’m waiting for Pi day which is on March, 14th (3.14…..)
Truly, 6×10^23 is Avocado’s number.
Ha! That’s what I called it, too.
Hello from my little hotel room in Tokyo!
I want to share this cute little perfume-related conversation that happened on my way from the airport.
Location: Taxi stand.
This fellow foreign traveller was lining up behind me and she just smelled really nice that I felt I had to tell her (and know what she was wearing!).
Me: Excuse me.. do you speak English?
Traveller: (In perfect American English) Yes I do.
Me: I keep smelling something amazing. I think it’s your perfume? Can I ask what you are wearing?
Traveller: (Sniffs her wrist elegantly and paused for a short while) I think it’s beautiful…
Me: I think so too! So…what is it? (Did she want to keep it to herself?? I started feeling a little bad for asking her a second time..)
Traveller: Oh, I mean, the perfume is called Beautiful!
Me: Haha! Oh right! Of course. Estee Lauder’s Beautiful!
SOTD: EL’s Private Collection.
If only somebody asked me today what I was wearing!
Excuse me, what are you wearing?
There someone asked you!
I haven’t smelled Beautiful in years..
Thanks!
What a lovely and funny perfume story. Enjoy your visit in Tokyo.
A few months back, I asked a woman in a store what she was wearing. I was surprised it was EL Beautiful, because it smelled so much better than I had remembered. It really was beautiful! Have a fun and safe trip!
Ha – love this story. Beautiful was my MIL’s scent, so I won’t wear it. But it can be really … nice (I had to restrain myself from using the name again).
I had a colleague I sat next to on a long plane ride and finally asked her what she was wearing since she smelled so nice. It was Beautiful. Which I never liked on me.
Same here! Beautiful just doesn’t blossom on my skin so I was surprised and a little *jealous* when I found out what she had on!
I have not worn Beautiful in years. I need to look for my mini later. It is indeed a great perfume. Enjoy your trip!
Beautiful is a lovely scent, a patient of mine wore it years ago and she was the epitome of it’s lush elegance.
Great story! Beautiful is my amazing 98 year old grandmother’s signature scent. I buy it for her every year for her birthday. She still travels too at 98 years young.
My alarm went off before my cat woke me up this morning. A Monday miracle! Tam Dao for me today.
our cat is our alarm clock also. Before the babies and before the sunrise!
You smell super great!
Ditto! Although now I am hoarding what I have left of my Tam Dao because I hear the new is quite changed
L’Artisan Safran Troublant today.
It would be my perfect scent for current time of the year if only it didn’t vanish from my skin after 2 hours.
Guessing game:
Today in the mail I received a sample of a new perfume launch inspired by the light. Anyone knows what did I get?
Cri de Lumière by Parfums d’Empire?
I was going to guess the same. Hope it was, so we can hear thoughts about it!
Both of you are correct
ding-ding-ding!
We’re twins! And it disappears on me too….so I have already applied a different afternoon scent.
Hi twin! I think we’re not the only one with this issue.
I’m not a fan of changing perfume during the day so I either re-apply more of the same one or just accept the fact I can’t smell it anymore on myself.
You are a purist, and I admire that.
I am a dreg of Perfumed Socitey, so I grabbed some Queen by Queen Latifa from my purse
I’m wearing the new reformulation of Zoologist Panda today. I miss a bit of the greenness of the original, but overall I think I like this version better. In the original version, it was the drydown that I didn’t like, and that is better in this one.
I need to do a side-by-side comparison with Bat, because I feel like the earthy/ozonic notes in the new Panda kind of give it a similar vibe to Bat, but a bit less overtly weird.
I just applied latest Panda on my left wrist, it’s much more cheerful than Civet or Rhinoceros, that I made my husband wear in the morning.
And now my husband is in Beaver
He likes Beaver a lot better than Rhinoceros so I’m hoping maybe a full bottle 
So much fun! I’ll apply Bat on my wright wrist right now! Ho-ho-ho…
Compared to Bat
Panda is just some sort of a fruity Escada perfume in a neon pink bottle.
Bat is so rough!
I tried Elephant recently and quite liked it. Enough to order a travel spray. I do appreciate that Zoologist has the smaller sizes available.
So now Elephant can join Bat and Original Beaver and Macaque on the perfume shelf. I’m hoping they send me a sample of Camel with my order
It’s hard to believe that the line has been 3 years on the market and there are already “the original” and a reformulated version :)) And people fighting over which one is better.
Anyway… I think it’s fun to explore!
pixel,
don’t you think that Elephant reminds you of some Dyptique scent? I just can’t remember which one.
I loved Macaque opening galbanum (Cristalle and N19) but then it got so sweet like a pound of honey.
I went for a doctor’s appointment and mammogram this morning, now getting ready for work. Trying out Lancome Oud Bouquet. I don’t really know much about oud, but this is fairly spicy, and sweet, like home made whip cream sweet. I don’t smell any floral notes at all. It’s nice, pretty strong. I think if I were to over spray though, it would make me feel ill.
https://interactive.aljazeera.com/aje/2016/oud-agarwood-scent-from-heaven/index.html
This is a good documentary about oud if you haven’t seen it. It ranges from ‘incense’ to perfume to trees, to trade and collectors of agarwood.
I haven’t seen it. Thanks!
Started the day with Bottega Veneta. Six hours later, found myself in a perfume shop (am still in Rome — this wasn’t one of the giant fancy ones, but a neighborhood one with a good selection of higher-end lines and some (formerly?) niche ones like SL and Juliette Has a Gun. Now have Narciso Rodriguez for Her EDT on one arm, and Hiris — which I have never seen in person before — on the other. Problem is, I kind of love them both. And I have been so very, very restrained this year.
Then surely you can buy more now
Just discovered that Nordstrom has a NR for Her travel set (I think it is 2 travel sprays of the EDP and one of the EDT, but may have that backwards) for $45. That will be my belated Christmas gift to myself when I get home at the end of the year. The Hiris, though, may tempt me to a FB purchase while I am still here, exchange rate and VAT be damned. I will do another test-spray next week (this perfumery is conveniently located by the vegetable and cheese market I prefer), then decide. I am a life-long practitioner of delayed gratification.
I used to rush into purchases, but now that’s rare. But if there was a perfume store next to the place I buy my cheese, I might be in trouble!
Raining here (good! we needed it), perfect weather for vintage Magie Noire. I smell elemental and weird and heartbreakingly beautiful.
Rain is good!
Enjoy
What a wonderful perfume and so good for autumn.
Would you believe we had ANOTHER fire last night in the canyon below us? DH was out til 1am putting it out. We are SO ready for the winter rains.
SOTD is Juicy Fruit With Megaphone. Care to guess?
Are you in Southern California? If so, your forecast is really scary, and I hope you’ll be safe from any fires.
Northern. And the wind is howling today, and it will be hot this week.
Oh dear. My daughter lives in Vallejo and suffered only from smoke, but I used to live in and near Glen Ellen. I hope everyone will be safe this time.
Um… Carnal Flower?
Heaven forbid
Not a tuberose fan.
Hint #2: FIG
Hint #3: SWEDISH FIG
Pulp?
Kanuka wins!!
Wow! It seems it’s beem so dry all over the western US. I know I saw many Fire Alert signs as I was driving through the plains and into the mountains. And the winds, which were whipping Hell bent for leather, only worsened fire anxiety. I hope you get a good solid rain very soon.
This is our climate in most of California, every year: we get no rain in the summer. October is always the highest fire risk. We are just waiting for the winter rains to start… usually in early November.
Oh no
Sorry to hear this.
SOTD is Annick Goutal’s Musc Nomade. Powdery & soft.
Nice one!
Thanks! I’m trying for a week of musk perfumes but I may change my mind – it’s very warm out, and going to be much warmer tomorrow!
Mmm, I’ve been wanting to try this one but I think I read that it’s been discontinued. Is that true?
I’m not sure, I hadn’t heard that but I’ll ask around to find out.
Still with a lingering cold so my sniffer is functioning at about 60% today. Wearing a bit of Aedes Iris Nazarena which smells great when I can smell it!
My sympathies to you. I’ve been sick for a week now and am in the hacking cough phase.
And to you! That coughing phase is the pits. I just left work, which I probably shouldn’t have gone in to begin with, because my nose was running so bad and I couldn’t stop coughing. Hope it passes quickly for both of us.
Sympathies (& hot tea with lemon) to you both!!
We finally have a break from heat and humidity. I’m wearing By Kilian Intoxicated from a sample. It’s a little too “sharp” somehow to my nose so I hope it calms down. Everyone here is so excited about the Astros going to the World Series! Houston deserves some good news, yay!
Yeah, I was happy for Texas. They could use a morale booster.
Adding another Yay Astros!
Woke up with a headache,
But still felt the need to wear a fragrance, so I grabbed Eau de Narcisse Bleu, by Hermès.
So soft! It has a transparent feel. Green, floral and woody. A little powdery.
Usually I am not a big fan of sheer fragrances, but I love this one!
SOTD PdE Ambre Russe which I haven’t worn in forever but is so gosh darn delicious I can’t imagine why!
Stopped at a Pendleton outlet store in Pendleton Oregon this morning and possibly made a purchase…oopsie!
Happy Monday to all!✌????
I’m intrigued by the idea of possibly purchasing. I wonder if you only possibly purchase then do you only possibly pay? That would be nice!
I’m possibly waiting for my debit statement to see if actually did purchase it or not. The Theory Of Possibility has yet to be proved????
I love Pendleton outlets, there is one by my parents house. So many possibilities. Guessing you purchased something already made, or maybe a blanket?
Also – I think your reviews of Queen led me to a purchase, and I love it, its so easy to love (for me).
Glad you like Queen but the credit has to go to Robin who listed it in a “cheap thrills” post. Otherwise, I’m sure I would have gone to my grave ignorant of the splendor that is Queen. I know for me personally, it’s a double thumbs up if I love it AND it’s cheap????
Yes, many thanks to Robin for this find, and all the others I have either purchased, smelled or enjoyed researching on this treasure trove!
Since some people ordered it unsniffed and hated it, I maybe should accept neither blame nor credit
Ooh, Pendleton is the greatest! What did you possibly buy??
I possibly bought a blanket. But only possibly. I have to wait for my debit statement. That will confirm or disprove the Theory of Possibility????
In Pendleton + outlet + no sales tax = you were required to make a purchase. Hope it was something wonderful! We have Pendleton bath towels and they are the nicest I’ve ever used.
Your Pendleton math is as good as you perfume math????
Still feeling hacky from my cold, but dying to try my new bottle of Naja. I think I will try one small spritz after my shower.
Your cough is really clinging on. Hope this week is better.
Thank you Kanuka, everyone in the house is coughing, been going on for 3+ weeks now. I am sending the husband to the doctor tomorrow for suspected bronchitis. The female dog has a heart murmur and a collapsed trachea and the male dog bad allergies. I am thinking if it doesn’t get better soon we all may need to be put down. LOL.
That’s rough. Hope you can take it easy until you get some pep in your step.
Hope you all feel better soon.
Oh my goodness! So sorry for you guys. Healing wishes to the entire cazaubon household
I’m in Parfumerie Generale Aomassaï today (thanks to a sample from the swapmeet). It was a little sweet to start with for my taste but I’m liking it better now that it’s settled a bit. It’s chilly here today and fits the weather nicely.
Gosh, have not worn that in ages, I should see if I still have any!
I have yesterday’s perfumes on my jumper and they blend nicely and benefit from being 12 hours old: L’artisan Al Oudh ( probably my favourite oud as I like the warmth of it, almost amber and nutmeg with agarwood, a tad sweet and smoky maybe. Not at all animalistic on me) and Santal Majuscule ( a perfume I like best at around the three hour mark once the ‘jeux de peau’ aspect has faded).
Have a happy week!
I’m always tempted to buy Al Oudh, mostly because I think the arches on the bottle are pretty. Then I tell myself that I have to curb my impulse to blind buy. It’s worked so far (at least with the Al Oudh, not so much with other stuff).
Morning, all, after a mixed long weekend. The timing went on my fabulous—but old— sewing machine. First time in 40 years, so I suppose I can forgive its crankiness at being asked to do this biiiiiiig job. It’s with the mechanic, and I hope it is fixable. It’s a heavy old Bernina, and I love it like a family member. We planned a new kitchen. Good. I tried to clean the roller blinds in the sitting room. Fail. I tidied the linen cupboard, with help from three excited kittens who thought it was an alternative universe. Good. Didn’t sleep last night. Bad. So, it was just life, really.
Guess. I’m wearing a gorgeous heady mix of woods, small spices and white(-ish)flowers. It’s French, but it’s meant to invoke India in a rather unrealistic way; it’s probably more of a winter than a spring perfume.
I really will try to get back to NST today. to confirm who guesses right. Must pootle to the bakery now to get the dear man a baguette for his lunch. Maybe I ‘ll have a piece too. Be well, all.
Sorry: bad sentence construction there. Should be, “It’s meant, in a rather unrealistic way, to invoke India.” No excuses, just clumsy with my words.
Maharanih? I’m wearing that later today ( thanks to you ).
Yes! You’ve earned a chocolate fish for that deduction. Hope all is well mi seem to busier than I ever have been, but it will probably pass. Looking forward to your next visit to this huge sprawl of city.
Happy Mole Day, all!!!! Hmm, I wonder how I shall celebrate. Perhaps I’ll celebrate by drinking 10 moles of water (works out to ~3/4 of a cup).
I’m wearing a sophisticated, honeyed BWF! It’s got some woody musk at the base. I’m not crazy about it, but I like it a lot better than I did a year or two ago, when I first tried it. Lovely bottle. (Yeah, I’ve given you roughly nothing to work with. I’ve described about 1 mole of perfumes.)
Or perhaps 10 moles of wine to celebrate?
Wow, you’re a lot smarter than I am. 180ish mL wine is much more reasonable than that amount of water.
No guessing game for me today. I am in Perris Monte Carlo Ylang Ylang EDP. Very pretty flower. Thanks to pixel for introducing this gem to me.
I’m wearing an impulse purchase from yesterday – one of those new “crystal infused” perfume oils from Pacifica. I totally rolled my eyes at the crystal thing, but then I tested a few of the scents at Ulta and I must eat my words because I actually quite like them.
The one I’m wearing is called “Breath Taking” and it has notes of cardamom, pepper, and vanilla. It basically smells like a chai latte and is the olfactory equivalent of wrapping myself in a big fuzzy blanket. Mmmmmm.
Ooh, that sounds yummy!
I just received this in the mail today, and it smells like buttered pop on me. Oh, woe. I want chai latte! But I’m glad it’s wearing well one you. ????
Oh well, I also ordered Tibetan Mountain Temple and Spanish Amber, and both of those are delightful.
Buttered *popcorn*
Really, buttered popcorn?? That is so interesting. Gotta be honest – I probably wouldn’t mind a perfume that smelled like that
Tibetan Mountain Temple was the first Pacifica I tried and still one of my favorites. Hope you enjoy!
Okay, it quieted down a good bit after a couple of hours. It’s an ever so lightly spicy vanilla now. That was so weird.
I’m in the mood for something orange today, so 24 Faubourg fits the bill – both the perfume and the bottle.
You smell super!
I couldn’t find my Theorema, which I just wore yesterday, so I’m reeking instead.: Elephant, Camel, and … original Organza. Reekareekareeka! (Don’t hate me, please.) I think I like Elephant best of the Zoology line. A lovely surprise. But I love elephants, too.
I want to try Elephant and Camel tomorrow.
But how did you decide to add Organza to the mix? =)
I started with Organza, and then Elephant and Camel arrived in the mail. Voila!
I tried Elephant today and I also think that I like it a lot! It reminds me of Diptyque Phylosikos or maybe something else from that line. But my ability to smell is compromised by a long hard day:))) I’ll have to compare.
Elephant is at least travel spray worthy for sure.
You lost it since yesterday, ack!
Pathetic, eh?
SotD = La Chasse aux Papillons
Cool morning then hot afternoon weather call for something easy and pretty. Haven’t worn it since the beginning of August. 34 boulevard Saint Germain is on deck for tonight. Go team!
you smell lovely
thanks, Barqs. La Chasse is happiness in a bottle.
You smell pretty! Love the name of that one too.
I wanted something pretty and easy to enjoy for Monday, so I’m wearing Soivohle Honeysuckle Bird. I just love this one!
And such a great name.
Acqua di Parma Iris Nobile, applied very lightly. My allergies are really getting to me today.
Am in Illinois, allergies are just wicked this fall. Finally found an OTC assortment that works for me: 1/2 of a Xyzal tablet in the a.m., the other half around 4-5 pm. Then before bed I take half of a regular Allegra and half a Zyrtec. None turn me into a zombie, thank goodness. Only sneezed twice today under this regimen.
Iris Nobile sounds soothing, should go spray some now.
I’m taking zyrtec D during the day and Mucinex and lots of Vicks vapo rub at night.
I hope you get some relief from your allergies.
Needed something soothing and calming after a rough weekend, so it’s Bois des Iles edt.
I hope the week goes better for you! ???? Hugs!
You smell good. Hope the week is better than your weekend. Hugs.
I’m wearing Mistral Patchouli today for a morning walking the dogs at the shelter. There was the cutest Rottie, so sweet, and a little Lab who will be gone as soon as someone sees her. Our Humane Society took about 70 animals from Harvey-hit Texas shelters so there’s a big need for walkers until we can get them all adopted.
Wow, that is a lot of pets! Props to you for walking them.
I bet those dogs are thrilled when they see you coming!
You smell lovely and I hope all of the dogs find homes with loving families ????
Just got back from a weekend trip to Boston for a concert with my husband and am taking the day to decompress before heading back to work tomorrow. I am fighting off a creeping crud that has hung over me since Friday. It got so bad that I nearly missed the concert; we were standing on the platform waiting on the T to get to the venue and as I was sweating bullets just standing there, my husband said, “We need to get you back to bed.” I resisted, and I’m glad I did. The concert was worth it. But, I am paying dearly today for muscling through it this weekend.
Today, I am wearing Tom Ford Cafe Rose, which I like a lot, but I will not be shelling out the $230 for the full bottle any time soon. I had shown Katie Puckrick’s video review of Secretions Magnifque to my husband and our two (male) friends because Katie is hilarious and brilliant and that video is especially hilarious and brilliant, and OF COURSE they had to find out what it smells like, too. So to justify paying for shipping a sample of something I will definitely NOT ever be wearing myself, I tacked on a sample of Cafe Rose.
So now, Cafe Rose will spend the next week or so in my regular rotation, and the SM will remain safely quarantined until the boys come over to play with it (outside, of course!)
Katie is hysterical! and it is the only perfume youtuber Mr. CM8 will watch with me.
I means “she is” NOT “it is”
Hope you win against the crud!!
I hope I’m not violating etiquette or policy but I missed someone who wanted in on my Grandiflora split, Lunagreen. I think there was an e-mail problem. Could you please try again? I’ll attempt to add e-mail to my gravitar right now.
Well I couldn’t figure it out. Put four nines right after cfreeland and send e-mail to me at yahoo.

But if something isn’t clear, just ask!
Wearing a soft elegant cloud of Iris that requires 8 sprays to last all day.
Commuting Woes and Wins No. 401
I have decided to pepper Commuting Woes with Commuting Wins to balance out the universe somewhat.
Win! Someone accidentally stepped on another person and apologized. NO kerfuffle ensued.
Woe! When a prime seat is available in a crowded train and there is nothing on the seat or on the floor, proceed with caution. What’s worse than B.O.? It’s a trick question. Give up? B.O. on one side and bad breath on the other. Yuck? You bet!
Woe! A window seat was available and I politely asked to sit there. The guy took his sweet time to move his belongings and decided that he did not need to get up because I can contort my body to fit a 4″ clearance. Nope nope nope…he finally reluctantly slid across to the window seat to give me the aisle seat. Really? He was upset that I interrupted his iPad mahjong game. I’m glad it sounded like he lost the game.
My “commuter woes” have been surprisingly minimal as I’ve dashed cross-country. One thing I DO NOT understand: why is people think no one can see them pick their nose as they drive?! I SEE you, and so does everyone else who has the misfortune to share the road with a nose picker!! Is it the same on the subway?
You’re closer to stray substances on the train
I’ll guess. Hiris?
Or 28 La Pausa.
My guess to. 28 La Pausa
Yep…the EDT to be exact!
Correcto!
