It’s Shalimar Friday (plus World Kindness Day)! Our community project for today: wear Guerlain Shalimar, or a Shalimar flanker, or a perfume that is related to Shalimar in some way…it does not have to be by Guerlain! This is a (10th anniversary) repeat from 2016.
I’m Shalimar-adjacent in Guerlain Jicky.
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 Shalimar-adjacent (waves to ) in Guerlain Jicky…
Happy Almost-Friday! It’s also World Pneumonia Day. Birthdays: Grace Kelly, Booker T Jones, Neil Young. What fragrance are you wearing?
I might deserve a fraction of a point for Guerlain Spiritueuse Double Vanille?
Reminder: 11/13 will be Shalimar Friday…
It’s Hump Day and Veterans Day. (Plus, a handful of literary birthdays: Carlos Fuentes, Kurt Vonnegut, Shirley Graham Du Bois, Fyodor Dostoevsky, Mary Gaitskill.) What fragrance are you wearing?
I’m in Prada Infusion d’Iris Absolue, because Dawn wore Infusion d’Iris yesterday.
Reminder: 11/13 will be Shalimar Friday…
It’s (teapot) Tuesday, plus Sesame Street Day and the World Science Day for Peace and Development. What fragrance are you wearing?
I’m in Aftelier Candide for a sunny fall day. Tea at the moment is Cascadia Breakfast from the Jasmine Pearl Tea Co, which I brew with cacao husk and cardamom.
Reminder: 11/13 will be Shalimar Friday…
Happy Friday and happy National Nachos Day! Birthdays: John Philip Sousa, Glenn Frey, Arturo Sandoval and Colson Whitehead. Our community project for today: wear the fragrance you’d like to give to your 21-year-old self (even if it wasn’t on the market at that time). Thanks go to Kanuka for the suggestion.

My 21 year old self was not going to give any thought at all to the relationship between gender and fragrance for some years yet…M7 would have been too big an ask, but I’m pretty sure Dior’s Eau Sauvage would have been an easy entry point…
