Tuesday scent of the day 2/10

Posted by Robin on 10 February 2026 116 Comments

It’s Tuesday, National Umbrella Day and World Pulses Day. Birthdays: Boris Pasternak, Chick Webb, E. L. Konigsburg. What fragrance are you wearing?

I’m in Fendi Theorema, and I could just wear it all week? Tea at the moment is The Art of Tea Cascadia Breakfast brewed with cacao husks and cardamom. 

Reminder: on 2/13, we’re doing Long Lost Love Friday…

Friday scent of the day 2/6

Posted by Robin on 6 February 2026 200 Comments

Happy Friday all! It’s also Waitangi Day, Bob Marley’s birthday and National Frozen Yogurt Day. Plus, it’s the opening day of the Olympic Winter Games Milano Cortina 2026. Our community project for today: do absolutely whatever you like with the Winter Olympics theme: scent a winter sport? Wear something Italian to celebrate the location? Wear something to support your country’s team? Or, pick a fragrance to honor your utter lack of interest in sports, or winter, or both. Thanks go to LesLiesse 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.

Utter lack of interest in sports? Check. Complete disdain for winter? Check. I’m going Italian, though, in Carthusia Mediterraneo…

Wednesday scent of the day 2/4

Posted by Robin on 4 February 2026 121 Comments

It’s Hump Day and Rosa Parks Day. We are finally past the midpoint of winter! There are 44 days until the spring equinox, but only 24 days until the first day of meteorological spring. We can do this! Meanwhile, what fragrance are you wearing?

My idea of a winter sport: sauna (SheriG went with the same theme yesterday). I’m in Monocle + Comme des Garçons Scent One: Hinoki. If all goes to plan I’ll be sweating it off in the sauna before the morning is out. 

Reminder: 2/6 is the opening day of the Olympic Winter Games Milano Cortina 2026…

It’s (Teapot) Tuesday and National Carrot Cake Day. Birthdays: Charles Henry Turner, Gertrude Stein, Alvar Aalto, Mabel Mercer, Simone Weil, Nathan Lane. What fragrance are you wearing?

I have just about zero interest in sports and winter, but I am playing along with the community project by copying DeniseH’s Monday pick: Fendi Theorema.

Reminder: 2/6 is the opening day of the Olympic Winter Games Milano Cortina 2026…
