It’s Friday and National Banana Bread Day! Birthdays: Samuel Pepys, W. E. B. Du Bois. Our community project for today: we’re off to New Zealand! Wear a perfume that is named for a place in New Zealand, or that reminds you of a (real or imaginary) trip to New Zealand, or that features a local ingredient, or ?
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.
The readers of Rough Guides voted New Zealand the most beautiful country in the world in 2023 (although it came in second to Indonesia in 2022 by the UK’s Money). All the gorgeous greenery and water made me thing of Diptyque’s L’Ombre dans L’Eau, so that’s my pick, and it’s just a shame I can’t wear it on the banks of the Manawatu River. (And yes, I did blow some time this week looking at real estate listings…)
