Friday scent of the day 10/2

Posted by Robin on 2 October 2026 4 Comments

It's the first Friday in October and the International Day of Non-Violence.  (A couple PSAs: the swapmeet starts tomorrow. We don't have a community project today, and we might not have one the next week either, but I am hoping to get them started up the week after that.)

What fragrance are you wearing? And since we are not going to do a damage poll this month, do feel free to tell us about what you bought in the last quarter (July, August and September). 

Yesterday I wore a drop of Tauer Phi Une Rose de Kandahar because allo mentioned it on Wednesday, and today I'm in a drop of Blackbird Y06-S.

Reminder: Personal matters are still taking up much of my time. Hopefully I will continue to post regularly and hopefully we will restock the Friday community projects soon. 

And for those of you who like to plan ahead, see Scent of the day ~ Friday community projects 2026, where I'll occasionally manage to have the next five or six weeks mapped out in advance.

    I’m in a bit of Celine Cologne Celeste. Yesterday we were cleaning at work and I had brought a bottle of cologne for the redistribution fairy. didn’t I drop it on the tile floor in the bathroom-it shattered, of course. Can’t remember its name. I never wore it but I’ll remember it lol.

    Hope everyone has a very firm grip on their SOTD:)

    Happy FriYAY y’all!

    Went down the classic/vintage path today with Guerlain Vol de Nuit EdT. Such an elegant beauty!

    I went back several posts (I’m a curious George it has to be said..), and just wanted to give my condolences to Robin. It’s bad enough to grieve, but dealing with the “business” of someone’s death is hard too. Hugs!
