Friday scent of the day 1/21

Posted by Robin on 21 January 2022 304 Comments

 It's Friday and Christian Dior's birthday (also, International Sweatpants Day, and Dior can help you with that). Our community project for today: wear a Dior fragrance. (This is a repeat from 2014.)

What fragrance did you pick? As always, do chime in with your scent of the day even if you’re not participating in the community project.

I'm in vintage Diorissimo...Eau de Toilette on one arm and Eau de Cologne on the other. They are blending nicely with the paperwhites on my windowsill.

Reminder: 1/28 is Sidonie-Gabrielle Colette's birthday. Do whatever you like with the theme (wear a fragrance inspired by Colette or one of her characters? scent a character? scent Leslie Caron in the movie Gigi? Or wear Guerlain Jicky, which Colette is said to have worn.)

And for those of you who like to plan ahead, see Scent of the day ~ Friday community projects 2022, where I'll try to always have the next five or six weeks mapped out in advance.

Note: top image is from the Dior Spring-Summer 2020 campaign.

    Honestly, isn’t every day sweatpants day now? Robin, you and your paperwhites smell wonderful.
    I’m wearing Addict today and I’ll bet I’m not the only one. Happy Friday, NST!

      I just remembered that Karl Lagerfeld’s quote: “Sweatpants are a sign of defeat. You lost control of your life so you bought some sweatpants.”
      I too am in my sweatpants right now :D

        ? I loved Andre Leon Tally’s memoir for many reasons, but the insight he gave into Karl Lagerfeld’s world was one of them. Highly recommend it!

    It’s Friday! International sweatpants day is something I can get behind. Although I refuse to wear them out in public. Just can’t do it.
    I’m in Dune, my one Dior. I would say this is one of my 10 desert island perfumes, although I haven’t worn it in awhile.
    It’s currently -5F outside.? But we have blue skies and sun, so I’m not going to complain. My college daughter goes back to school this weekend, and I’ve promised her lunch at Raising Cane’s today. Yum.

    Hello all!

    Jicky and I are enjoying some lovely chilly weather. I couldn’t quite decide on what to wear, so I pulled out my Tendre Poison. Lovely round floral with a sensuous honey base. While I wish they still made this, I can’t imagine what they would have done to it in the intervening years.

    Stay safe everyone!

    I’m in Cuir Cannage, from a mini that I had thought lost forever in the wilderness of my bedroom. However, the lost was found and I am wearing it. It is my favorite of the Dior fragrances that I have worn this week.

      Cuir Cannage is so beautiful — I will likely switch to that after a shower. But right now I’m in Gris Dior on one wrist and Gris Montaigne on the other because you mentioned it/them yesterday. Aside from the color of the juice, I honestly can’t detect much difference between them. And the color thing might be due to the age of my GM decant — it’s a very light, slightly cloudy amber color, while the newer GD is pale pink.

    SOTD!Dior Mitzah.It’s one of 5 I have from the original private collection,the others are Oud Ispahan,Eau Noire,Cologne Blanche and La Colle Noir.Mitzah is so beautiful,I read it as a spicy woody amber.Just gorgeous,and works well in today’s heat!
    I have a pretty extensive Dior collection,I do think most of what they did in the early days are spectacular.Poison will always be a favorite,and I am grateful for the vintage Diorissimo which I found in a dusty old apothecary shop many many moons ago.We are a great-smelling bunch today!

        I’ll have to try the Upton Christmas. My new nighttime tea is a combo of the bagged Twinings Christmas and bagged Tazo Joy. Tasty — and more important, not too complicated for Mr. Vee to concoct if I am on the couch, covered in kitties. :)

    I am celebrating sweatpants day in style–or lack thereof! It is so cold, and all my leggings are in the wash, so I am wearing pajama pants UNDER my sweatpants. Good thing there is only one other person in the office.

    Wearing vintage Poison. I love it! I wore some after my shower last night as well, and the tween (just like her dad) HATED it. I tried to explain that it was vintage! Dior! And the exact smell of 1985! And they were not having it…

    Also dealing with some troubling medical news today. I think 2022 is going to be a tough year.

    Dior day 5, and what could it be but vintage Poison esprit de parfum, the original and best? I have a mini which is miraculously intact: the top is going just a little haywire but you’d hardly notice. Yeah, it projects a lot, but it’s gorgeously rich and complex, a genius composition.

    I’m joining in with Diorissimo – a decant sent to me back in the heady days of makeupalley swapping, circa 2005 or so. Not truly vintage, but really vintage is all relative, right? Things have to be pretty old to seem vintage to me!

    We’re supposed to get a break for a few days from all the rain we’ve had so I will head out for a long walk later, which makes me think of SmokeyToes (“shoes on and out the door”) — hope she is well and out walking! Happy FriYAY, all.

    Wearing Dior Oud Ispahan. I love to wear it on very cold days like today.

    Thank you for all your comnents yesterday. The plans to have just cookies and coffee with the rude, unannounced family members this coming Saturday, at my younger sister’s apartment were abruptly canceled late last night when my sister saw pictures in my cousin’s FB, where none of them were wearing masks anywhere they went, especially in the subway. That was “the final straw that broke the camel’s back.” We are relieved that the stress and upset feelings are now over since we are not meeting them. I read all your comments to Mom last night. I think they make her feel better about the cancelation and the risks we were all going to be exposed to. Besides, as you all said, with Covid or not, unexpected, unannounced visits are unacceptable and never welcome.

    On my second cup of coffee with a couple of shortbread cookies.

    Happy Friday, everyone! ?

I have FB and have not posted anything – I basically read what’s up with people when I get notification and I don’t get every notification because that would flood my email even more.

    Quintuplets with Robin et al in vintage Diorissimo and smelling like heaven. Sadly, the bottle leaked during our last wildfire evacuation and I lost most of it, but still 5ml or so to eke out by droplets and swoon over.

    We’re having a big, gusty, east-wind event today — I nearly got knocked over while taking out the recycling — but it’s warm and sweet-smelling outside with the birds singing as they go about their business between hooshings. The wind has cancelled both my plans to do some fieldwork this morning and to take Littles to the beach for fish and chips dinner on the sand (no one wants to eat dinner with a 40 mph wind in their face), alas.

      In Saudi Arabia, the Islamic lunar calendar has month called Shawwal.
      It translates to lift or carry and the sands will blow almost everyday, essentially reshaping much of the landscape.

      I literally could not step outside for days at a time.

    I’m in Diorella today, which is my only Dior. (Not Diorissimo, which I’d thought it was.) The sample’s vintage (as in, at least 10 years old), and I believe I may have bought vintage Diorella at the time…but that was a long time ago so maybe I’m remembering something else. I haven’t tried this in probably 9 years, and I’m liking it, though it’s similar enough to a couple of other bottles I have that I doubt I’d go for a FB.

    More high school admissions fun today, with the tween on an online “in-person” assessment for one of the private schools. I love that they schedule this while the kids are supposed to be learning in their own schools, and that she is required to be shut in my office alone while I’m supposed to be on work meetings. (Grumble, grumble.) Oh well, one more of these assessments next week, and then we just wait for decisions at the end of February. (We’re already out of the running at our fourth-choice school, but that saved us the pain of her having to take another test; other kids in her class have gotten decisions already, so I think it’s becoming real to her and she’s starting to get stressed out.)

I have a Guerlain Shalimar thingy-one of the Souffles-and it’s the only perfume I have ever come across that has even a hint of Dune (from what I remember of it, from decades ago), but only when I sniff the bottle, not from the actual sprayed perfume. (Did I really buy a Shalimar flanker just to sniff the sprayer? Woah ?)

    Saturday, and my son is taking me to the movies after breakfast. First to see Spencer ( which I’m not that interested in, subject wise – though I probably would have said the same about Jacquie, by the same director, which I liked) and then, after lunch, Nightmare Alley, which is probably more my thing. There will probably be ten people in the audience and everyone has to be masked and double vaccinated ( still no Covid down here, yet). To tell the truth, I’m not in the mood for two movies ( feels like a chore today) and would rather just potter around and go for a walk. Wearing La Dolce Vita to get me up and over.

      Beautiful perfume choice! I liked Spencer a great deal (no interest in royalty) – had an excellent discussion with Mr Dolce about it afterwards, in terms of the state of mind of the character and where and how much sympathy the film had for her. Quite like Jackie in that regard I guess. Hope the day goes well for you.

    I’m commando since I’m at the eye MD for annual (last time was three years ago ?) eye exam and new contacts.

    So, this has nothing to do with perfume, so you may want to skip it, but it was QUITE entertaining!

    After getting an appointment, you are sent via text a whole SLEW of questions to answer, including very personal info, which has nothing to do with eye care. For example, are you straight/gay/other, what are your pronouns, do you have a gun in your household, what is your annual income….I bypassed most of those questions because it has nothing to do with an eye exam. When I ARRIVED, I was told I “had to complete the questionnaire in order to be seen.”

    Okay, I’m not a complete jerk and filled everything out, although I felt a bit disgruntled about it. I had to use my phone to scan a thingy (Q code I think) and follow the pop up link, then answer a bunch of questions. You had to answer every question or it would not move forward. The lady in front of me had a conniption fit! She had to have help to do any and all the “paperwork” on the their iPad, because she couldn’t see the questions and couldn’t figure out how to scroll, enter, type, etc. This held the line up for a good ten minutes until they sent out another receptionist to assist with the line. Not sure if that lady was ever seen, but there were 4 people in line and if this “technology” was supposed to speed up care, it had the opposite effect. Plus, what do people who don’t have smart phones do? They have to use the facilities iPad and hold up the entire line I guess…so ridiculous. Technology has gotten to the point in some cases that it actually hinders care.

    Anyway, rant over! I will apply something warm and soothing as soon as I get out of here.

      Of course, a fair number of patients seeking to see an Opthamologist will have visual problems which would make such forms problematic.
      I can see asking people what pronouns they use, so each is respectfully addressed.
      But there is no reason for a medical record to ask about income, sexual habits for an eye exam etc. this is especially inappropriate since medical records can be shared for various purposes, especially for patients who sign the disclosure waiver .

      That is totally nuts. Yes, I also lie on a lot of that stuff when I have to answer it online, if it’s clear that it has nothing to do with what I’m trying to achieve.

      Seriously, though, I work in a financial institution and we have to prove that we have a very, very solid business reason before we can ask for any personally identifiable information. We don’t need to know your sexuality to give you a mortgage, so we’re not allowed to ask it. (And rightly so!) How on earth would that knowledge help with your eye exam?

    Fulling executing sweatpants day–mine are from Athleta, olive green, and hardly stained.

    As for Dior, I couldn’t find my decant of Mitzah (and I really worked hard just now not to type ‘mitzvah’–which would be an excellent name for a perfume!) and I wasn’t up for Jasmin des Anges, of which I only have a decant–not an FB. It seems Dior is really not well represented in the OF household.

    So, naturally, I am wearing Laudano Nero today. Amber, incense, cognac. . . a warming perfume if there ever was one.

    Wearing Fève Délicieuse from the Dior Privée line. I found a mini dabber bottle in my stash, seemingly forgotten. My only other choices would have been Ambre Nuit and Eau Sauvage and I was not in the mood for either.
    I’m looking at the notes on Fragrantica and quite a few are listed but all I can smell is spicy (cinnamon?) and boozy vanilla. Not bad for a chilly day.
    Wishing you all a nice weekend!

Your students were given some slack for the semester and their make-up work/grades – I might not be describing this correctly but I remember you mentioned that earlier this week – and the same leeway needs to be shown to teachers/faculty!

    VIntage Diorissimo is one of my true loves, but today I am wearing vintage Miss Dior EDT in honor of the woman for whom it was named, Christian Dior’s sister Catherine. I had no idea of her heroism until I read reviews this fall of Justine Picardie’s 2021 book about her, and her history as a member of the French Resistance and prisoner of the Nazis. Short excerpt here: https://lithub.com/was-it-i-who-came-back-home-on-the-return-of-catherine-dior-and-other-survivors-of-ravensbruck/.

    Happy Friday!
    I was planning on wearing J’Adore, from a mini that I found this week, but since yesterday’s post about FM Rose Tonnerre I’ve been craving Une Rose ?
    So I am in Une Rose today and I love it! I think the combination of this simple name and the fragrance with such a strong character was brilliant. And I am still thinking of buying a bottle with the old name – I just can’t trust them that the juice hasn’t changed ?
    My February budget is already getting complicated. Oh well… ?
    Have a great weekend, all!

    After that meeting, I may in indulge in some retail therapy and get a new Chanel lipstick I have had my eye on…Rose Eclatant…a lovely bright red. No affiliation to Temptalia but she does great swatches and reviews…

    No CP points for me, I’m in Keiko Mecheri Oliban. Last night I did dab on some vintage Feminite du Bois after all that chatter of Pierre Bourdon and Dolce Vita. It was so glorious! I’m definitely on the lookout for Dolce Vita now, after DolceVita reported that that currently formulation is still very good.

    Hello everyone! Wearing Diorissimo edt today, what a popular choice. My bottle has a funny story attached: around ten years ago I bought it as a gift for a dear aunt (a dedicated Estée Lauder wearer) and that was that. Four years ago another aunt (her sister) gave me a bag of her own things that she thought I might like-scarves, some jewellery, and a bottle of Diorissimo. Yep, the same bottle: unworn by the first aunt, partially worn by the second, and now back in my hands and much-worn by me! I’m switching to Hypnotic Poison for the evening though, to accompany a full face of Dior makeup, a houndstooth jacket and a long grey velvet dress (Christian Dior was very fond of grey apparently, and also used velvet a lot). There will be some cocktails too…This week has been very hard for Mr Dolce so we’re pretending to be at a party in Paris to make it all go away. He’s in Eau Sauvage and pretending to be Alain Delon. Wishing you all a peaceful weekend and some relief from whatever is troubling you!

    My favorite Dior scents are vintage Miss Dior and vintage Dune. It’s much too cold for Miss Dior today and, although Dune often reminds me of the rocky Atlantic seacoast, I get its desert vibe, too, and the thought of warm golden sands is most welcome in the Midwest midwinter, so Dune is my choice for SOTD.

    A serendipitous Dune memory: A few years ago I wore Dune to a concert featuring my favorite Chicago-based cellist/composer to complement the new desert-inspired composition I knew he’d be performing live and one which I’d really enjoyed. Afterwards we hugged and chatted as we usually do. I told him how much I’d enjoyed Desert Sun and, for some unplanned reason, told him I was wearing Dune to honor it. His face brightened in recognition as he told me he knew my fragrance was familiar and that it was his mom’s favorite fragrance. I was delighted at his comment because I love him like a second son, and if I provided a happy moment for him of his mom who lives 5,000 miles away in his native country, it’s small payback for the joy his music has brought to me.

    Dune is also a serendipitous choice for today as we will be watching a virtual performance later of another favorite local guitarist/composer, who’s packed up his camper van and headed to the southwest desert where he’ll be performing songs in various locations beginning tonight, all powered by the sun via the solar panels on his van, aka The Music Box. It’s been awhile since we’ve traveled to his performance locations or seen him in person and, as avid campers and music lovers, we are really looking forward to this until we can do both for real!

    Wishing everyone a bit of serendipitous happiness ahead this weekend!

    SOTD = Dior Addict

    From either a swapped or freebie vintage bottle!

    https://www.instagram.com/p/CZANpmmOu4N/?utm_medium=copy_link

    So I am helping someone with his resume. When he first sent it, it was, are you ready for this? – 5 pages long! No. No. And No! I’ve already had three 30-minute sessions with him and yes, he took my advice but still have a ways to go. Yesterday, I happened to come across a company-sponsored event on “Resume Writing”. I provided him with the info and said it would be good for him to attend even though it may not work very well for his time zone. One of the other things I mentioned to him was a comment made by a previous manager who said “You need to be in charge of your own career because no one else will place YOUR career as their first priority.” In any case, I got whining and he also wanted me to find out if it was being recorded and if yes, could I send him a link. I just said “Yes” but I am sure I won’t be searching. If he asks, I will suggest that he searches for it himself. Sometimes, people don’t realize a very good thing even if it smacks them in the face!

        Agree 100%. I don’t know how the 5-page version passed a recruiter’s sniff test way back when. He knows I will be brutally honest. Also, if he applies to the job someone recommended, the hiring manager is based in the U.S. and the focus will be on essentially an elevator speech on why he should be considered for the role, not his responsibilities from 2012.

      I feel you. My sister is trying to shift into the business world (yet another exhausted, underpaid person in healthcare who has been left holding the bag for everyone else who’s left). She sent me her resume for review recently, and it was 3 pages long and went on at length about her clinical expertise but didn’t mention how many direct reports she’d had at every step or highlight her transferrable management skills. Not gonna fly. I did the first pass, but deferred to her friends on later edits, because it was just too much to revise.

      Resume reviewing and writing is one of the most unpleasant things I can think of, and that includes getting a root canal! Last time I wrote one, I was told that 2 pages was the maximum. No exceptions!

    Absolutely participating in sweatpants day today and basically every fall or winger day that I spend working from home.

    Wearing the gorgeous Dioressence from a 2002 bottle that smells even more vintage than the year indicates. I’ve had fun sleuthing to figure out the dates for this and my 1985 Poison.

    Super ready for the weekend and just 4ish more hours of work before I’m free!

      You used the same exact word to describe Dioressence that I did in my testing notes: gorgeous!

    I’m doing the CP by wearing some generous sprays of Miss Dior Cherie EdP. I have no idea when or where I bought this bottle. It’s really not my usual type of thing–I think of it as a bit sweet and I hate that frou-frou fake silver bow on the top of it. I suspect I bought it once in an airport duty free shop where I was spending too much time bored during a layover. In wearing it, though, both today and yesterday I’ve realized it’s really NOT that sweet. It’s a chypre in fact. I’ve read about it and simply do not get the supposedly weird notes of strawberry and popcorn. I do get mandarin and some light patchouli. It seems it has a complicated history of renaming and reformulation. I can’t tell what vintage mine is, but I’d guess at least 10 years old and maybe more. It has the name on it in silver raised letters, not printed on a white label as most of the ones I’ve seen pictured have. Who knows? This is one good reason to participate in the CP’s. I took this one out of my storage rack just for the project and am wondering why I have put it away all these years!

    Joining the many in vintage Diorissimo edt from a houndstooth bottle, probably 1980’s or thereabouts. Simply a life-long love!

    I was going to wear Miss Dior “Original” or Diorissimo, but most of my Dior bottles and samples are stashed at the office right now and I’m home today! Instead, I’m wearing Hypnotic Poison, which brings back fond memories of the early 2000s and is perfect for a cold day like today!

    Wearing a local made lotion that smells like Angel. It comes in a pump glass bottle that I will figure out a way to repurpose after. Maybe decorative with sand and shells? Maybe a diffuser?

    Went last weekend and, so far, so good. Thank God. I did douse myself with Angel. I could barely smell it, so I kept reapplying. I forgot my sense of smell is coming back, but lightly. Decant and lotion shoved into my purse, too. I must have really poured it on. More than 8 spritzes and constant refreshing! Hajusuuri are you listening?
    Thanks Jalapeno for the suggestion!

    I’ll put on some Poison later to join the party.

    Happy weekend!

    I’m in 4 sprays of vintage Poison edt. I can’t see a batch code on the bottle but the address is 33, avenue Hoche so I believe it’s after 1991. The juice smells absolutely divine and just what I remember it to be.

    Hello NSTers.

    Sometimes technology really, really, really sucks. Today I found out that my cell phone had deleted the last voice mail I got from my Mom. I didn’t tell it to do that! ?? Damn devices.

    In other news, RIP Meat Loaf. I was going to link to a song of his, but somehow it doesn’t feel right, given the first part of my post.

    SOTD = Midnight Poison, from a bottle I came across several years ago on EvilBay after it had been discontinued. It was a lucky blind buy for me.

      Sorry about the voicemail. There should be a memory keeper type function for voicemails one wants to keep for posterity! I lost several from my mom as well.

      This sucks.
      Can you hear your father’s voice in your head? I hope that makes sense. Whenever I say a phrase my father would, I can hear his voice.

      So sorry to hear that! My phone also deleted the last voicemails I had from my aunt who died six years ago. I’d been keeping them and deleting newer messages when I ran out of space, but one day they were just gone. No warning!

        My brother was able to email a voicemail he had of my Mom’s to me earlier this evening. His phone is new enough that he can back everything up onto The Cloud. And he does.

          I’ve been able to email voicemails to myself with my old iPhone, so that’s what I do when I really want to save one. I’m so sorry that you lost the one from your mom — those tangible reminders of a person are so immensely precious. But glad your brother still had one!

    I remember watching a video of some live performance of Meatloaf for the first time. I remember thinking, “Who IS that guy?” He could belt it out! Another passing. I try to seek out some new example of the genre whenever we lose an old one. Who would you recommend as a new old style rocker with a good heart? Sad to say I am loosing track!

    SOTD=Diorissimo, Diorissimo, Diorissimo even tho it is not doing well in the very cold air outside, and the not so warm inside here. We have both been so busy, the fire hasn’t been tended as enthusiastically as usual.
    Here is to a good weekend, everyone!

    I’m in Diorissimo today, like many of you, but my bottle isn’t vintage. I bought it in 2019 at the airport in either Seoul or Singapore, I can’t remember anymore. That feels like a long time ago, when I did big international trips every year or two! I really miss traveling!!!

    Late to the game. Non-vintage Diorissimo, although I still have a small vintage decant courtesy of a kind NSTer.

    Christmas decorations boxed up, ready to go into the garage. Tree will be taken outside and left in the woods behind our house. In NYC, the building staff would come up, bag it and remove it for us. Maybe the deer will enjoy it.

    I noticed a difference with the new tires yesterday. Car rides quieter. My husband and I went to the movies afterward. He saw Nightmare Alley, and I saw The 355, which was mildly entertaining. Would have been better if it maintained more of a sense of humor.

    Very tardy to the Dior party! Wore the original iteration of Dior Homme EDT, still hanging in there today. I purchased this when it first came out from my local Sephora. I think this is the only full bottle I have ever purchased there. I got the little bottle and now I wish I had purchased the larger one. It definitely has a carrot-iris thing going on and is altogether lovely❤️
