SOTD 27.11.2020

A SOTD (Scent Of The Day) thread is a really good conversation generator. The idea is you’ll chime in through the week with whatever scent you are wearing. You don’t need to be super knowledgable, have high faluting tastes or be a published author to comment. Just tell us what fragrance you’re wearing, smelling, buying etc. and how it makes you feel and/or anything else about it that tickles your fancy.

You can also comment on everyone else SOTD choices too. It’s great to tell someone how much you love their choice, ask for more info about it, the house or perfumer. There’s someone here from around the world 24/7 and Perfume Posse people love to chat. We like to keep it fragrant but there’s always room for life events and adventures too. This is our place to share how we smell, live, love, eat, work, raise kids and pets and get on with the business of living.

Perfume Posse SOTD

SOTD 27.11.2020

You probably won’t have time to write every scent, every spritz. Whenever you feel the mood take you, share your current spritz and a few things about it. Maybe you love/loathe it, want it, are excited by the notes/bottle/SA who sold it: WHATEVER! As always here at Perfume Posse, taking sides never means taking offence and everyone keeps it respectful and light, even though we can sometimes trawl the depths.

Hopefully you will come back and see if anyone has responded to your SOTD comment. Then you can reply to them, and so on.

Go To It Crew.

    Gash! I’ve been lost in life.
    Tonight I wore Seville a l’Aube by L’Artisan for dinner. Why don’t I wear this crazy gorgeous creature more often?

    Banishing the grey in Frangipani.

  • Melanie says:

    Really enjoying Vigour, by Criminal Elements. It’s very similar to ELDO’s Fat Electrician which i adore. Vigour is more Vetiver and Oakmoss and I really like it.

  • Cassieflower says:

    And I’m back on the BWF train in Pichola, thanks to Portia’s reminder. This is so beautiful.

  • Maya says:

    I can have fun with my choice today and say – I’m Sleeping With Ghosts, again. Ariel was right. It does work well in colder weather.

  • cassieflower says:

    I’m on the booze today in Angels Share.

    • Portia says:

      How was it?

      • cassieflower says:

        Lightly gourmand, vanilla, amber & tonka with well blended spice sprinkled with a little alcohol. Lovely for what it is, but when I use up my decant I’ll be done. I wouldn’t crave a full bottle.

  • Portia says:

    This morning I wore Niki de Saint Phalle through the heat. About to have a nap, then a bath. More fragrant decisions after that.

  • Maya says:

    Yves Rocher Nuit d’Orchidee – warm and sultry tropical nights.

  • Cassieflower says:

    Took a big swerve away from the BWFs and am wearing Yves Rocher Rose Oud.

  • Portia says:

    Inspired by Cassieflower I’ve gone Gucci Bloom Acqua di Fiori. A salty tang to the original, perfect as a heat beater.

  • Cassieflower says:

    Gucci Bloom, keeping with the BWFs.

  • Portia says:

    Jin and I went for pedis today. It’s 42C again in Parramatta and it seemed EVERYONE for miles around decided to hit the air conditioned mall. It was bedlam. Like Xmas week. So many families.
    I wore YSL Velours to try and lean into the heat. It worked. Jin got spritzed with the Bulgari Neroli, quite nice; woodsy gasoline white flowers. VERY niche smelling.

  • Cassieflower says:

    EL Tuberose Gardenia.

  • Eldarwen22 says:

    Wore Deneuve extrait earlier but I will be switching over to either Happy or PHI Une Rose de Kandahar later.

    • Portia says:

      OOOOH! So glam. I loved that Deneuve extrait. My decant is long finished though. Niki de Saint Phalle is my closest to it.

  • Portia says:

    Jin is only sick, not C19! YAY!

    I’ve spritzed shitloads of Lys Soleia by Guerlain to celebrate.
    Portia xx

  • Portia says:

    Good news, I’m C19 free. Still awaiting Jin’s result. He sick and grumpy and we are hitting 41C/106F today. It’s a scorcher.
    Caligna by L’Artisan. Their citrus style fig. Perfect warm weather wear.

  • Musette says:

    I’m coked to the gills in Arpege – I have contemp black bottle sprayed on my left wrist and a vintage edt on my write (a gorgeous pyramid-ish bottle with a black bakelite stopper) as well as a vinty dusting powder. Interestingly the contemp and the vintage don’t smell all that different – especially on drydown (the vint is a bit creamier but both are easily ID’d as Arpege. xoxoxo

    • Portia says:

      OOOOOHHH! You love you glam floral aldehydes Musette. I’m inspired. Maybe I’ll hit one this afternoon as it cools.
      Portia xx

      • Musette says:

        they are my Ultimate Jam, P!
        sounds like you are on the surface of the sun! Hope you can stay cool – or, at the very least, cool-adjacent! xoxoxo

        • Portia says:

          HA! I washed the dogs and got suitably soaked. I’m going to see if Jin wants to go swimming at Kath’s Dad’s place this evening. That should do it.

  • filomena813 says:

    Today I’m wearing Hermes H’iris.

  • Dina C. says:

    SL Clair de Musc, nice easy favorite.

  • Cassieflower says:

    Chloe Nomade.

  • Brigitte says:

    Must de Cartier. My 100 ml bottle is down to 40 ml due to weeks of daily wear.

    And happy belated birthday to Musette.
