Lazy weekend poll ~ winter viewing list, episode 7

Posted by Robin on 2 January 2021 372 Comments

The first weekend of 2021! Saturday is World Introvert Day and National Science Fiction Day, plus it’s the 9th night of Christmas (ladies dancing). Sunday is the 10th (lords a-leaping). PSA: Donatella will be dropping by on Tuesday! Meanwhile, we’re marking all the occasions with the “visual media” version of our winter reading poll.

Tell us…

…any great tv shows you’ve discovered recently, and/or

…any great movies you’ve seen lately, and

…of course, tell us the matching perfume(s)!

Or, as always, just talk about something else…

Lazy weekend poll ~ fall viewing list, episode 1

Posted by Robin on 17 October 2020 202 Comments

Some of us are still stuck at home, and some of us are freer to move about, but with fewer places to go. Either way, if you’re watching more tv during the Covid-19 pandemic, you’re not alone! So as with the reading poll, we’re adding extra viewing polls — if you’re going to watch, it might as well be something good. (And we’ll cover audio entertainment, like podcasts, in an upcoming poll.) So do tell us…

…what fragrance you’re wearing today?

…any great tv shows or movies you’ve discovered recently, and/or

…anything else fun you’ve been streaming to stay occupied (exercise videos? anything),

Or, as always, just talk about something else…

The odour of the “clean” smelling detergent

Posted by Robin on 20 August 2020 2 Comments

That makes enduring the hauteur of his latest client, professional “nose” or fragrance designer Mademoiselle Anne Walberg (Emmanuelle Devos), all the more challenging given she expects him to not only drive and carry her luggage, but also help her change sheets at hotels because she can’t stand the odour of the “clean” smelling detergent they’ve used, and take notes for her while she analyses the smell of a cave that needs to be copied for a client.

Lazy weekend poll ~ spring viewing list, episode 1

Posted by Robin on 21 March 2020 339 Comments

Saturday is International Fragrance Day and the International Day of Forests. Sunday is World Water Day. With so many of us stuck at home, though, this weekend’s poll is on a topic we usually only cover once a year, in the winter: visual media. (And we’ll do a spring reading poll soon, in April.) Tell us…

…what fragrance you’re wearing today?

…any great tv shows or movies you’ve discovered recently, and/or

…anything else fun you’ve been streaming to stay occupied (exercise videos? music? anything),

Or, as always, just talk about something else. And if you can think of anything else you’d like us to talk about in a weekend poll, do speak up…
