Lazy weekend poll ~ open thread, Siblings Day 2021

Posted by Robin on 10 April 2021 194 Comments

The (almost) daily lemming

Posted by Robin on 9 April 2021 8 Comments

Hopefully I will forget all about the Carrot + Passionfruit + Vanilla jam from Confiture Parisienne at Beautyhabit: "The jam that can be eaten with Leon under the neon lights of Pigalle.

Our community project for today: wear the oldest scent you own (you can interpret this as you like — the one you’ve owned the longest? worn the longest? the earliest launch date? whatever). Thanks to pyramus for the idea!

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, the fragrance I’ve worn the longest, and possibly one of the oldest bottles in my collection as well, although it’s hard to say for sure…
