We’re marking Veteran’s Day on Saturday and Diwali on Sunday with our usual open thread poll. Talk about anything you like — the fragrance you’re wearing today, your last great fragrance bargain, the veteran you want to honor today, whatever.
Or, ask a question about fragrance, then see if anyone else has asked a question that you can answer…
It’s Friday, Sesame Street Day and the World Science Day for Peace and Development. It’s also Neil Gaiman’s birthday, and that’s our Friday theme. Our community project for today: if you read (or watched) Good Omens, maybe scent Aziraphale or Crowley? Or scent some other favorite Gaiman work, or just wear a fragrance that you think fits any fantasy, science fiction or graphic novel or movie/show of your choice (it doesn’t have to be by Gaiman).
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 remembered yesterday that I already scented Crowley last year, so today I’m doing Aziraphale. Caron Pour un Homme would be perfect but I can’t find any, so I’m in Prada Amber Pour Homme, which is close enough for my purposes…
Happy Almost-Friday! Plus, National Scrapple Day, World Freedom Day and Chaos Never Dies Day. Birthdays: Ivan Turgenev, Dorothy Dandridge, Robert Frank, Carl Sagan and Mary Travers. What fragrance are you wearing?
I’m commando for a medical appointment this morning. I’ll report back with a fragrance later this afternoon.
Reminder: 11/10 is Neil Gaiman’s birthday….
Hump Day! Also, National STEM Day and National Cappuccino Day. Birthdays: Bram Stoker, Minnie Riperton, Bonnie Raitt, Kazuo Ishiguro, Rickie Lee Jones. What fragrance are you wearing?
I’m in Lubin Idole from an old decant.
Reminder: 11/10 is Neil Gaiman’s birthday…
It’s (Teapot) Tuesday and National Bittersweet Chocolate with Almonds Day. Birthdays: Ruby Hurley, Albert Camus, Al Hirt, Joni Mitchell. What fragrance are you wearing?
I’m in vintage Shiseido Féminité du Bois, which I meant to wear last week but just finally found this morning. Tea at the moment is a mix of Numi Chinese Breakfast and Numi Golden Chai, with an extra sprinkle of nutmeg.
