Hi, everyone!
Brigitte decided to do a fun Jo Malone week and I joined in with her. The only day I didn’t wear JM was on Saturday, when I wore Diptyque’s Do Son. It’s fun to do a theme week every once in awhile.
The Jo Malone theme made me realize that I miss having a bottle of Wood Sage & Sea Salt. I finished my 30 ml bottle a few months ago and haven’t repurchased. I definitely would have worn it this week if I still owned it. Maybe once lockdown starts to ease up, I’ll repurchase it as a little treat.
- Monday: Honeysuckle & Davana
- Tuesday: English Pear & Freesia
- Wednesday: Geranium & Verbena
- Thursday: Black Cedarwood & Juniper
- Friday: Honeysuckle & Davana
- Saturday: Diptyque Do Son EDT
The only JM bottle that I own but didn’t wear was Dark Amber & Ginger Lily. I just wasn’t in the mood for it this past week, but I’ll have to wear it sometime soon.

Which one was your favourite JM this week
Probably Honeysuckle & Davana. It’s so pretty and easy to wear 💛
It is beautiful for sure!
The scents are so nice, but sadly the longevity is so poor on me. I wore Chypre Siam today
For me it depends on which one. I got amazing longevity from Honeysuckle & Davana, Jasmine Sambac& Marigold and Neroli& Basil. And my skin pretty much eats scents.
Yes, the Eau de Cologne concentration definitely doesn’t work for everyone. I get decent longevity from the JM scents I own though.
I love Chypre Siam! Enjoy!
Woo hoo!! Jo Malone week 😁😁
Pomegranate Noire to finish the week
But also wearing one spray of Brigitte which I will wear all week for my birthday week ( it’s on Wednesday).
Pomegranate Noir never really worked on my skin but I always love smelling it on a tester strip. It reminds me of christmas time.
Yay for birthday week!! 🎉
Oh, and Caitlin, forgot to say I love Juniper & Black Cedarwood because it reminds me of Berdoues Arz El Rab, a beautiful ginger, iris, cedarwood blend.
As promised wearing Brigitte. Everytime I wear it I am reminded of how much I love this creamy lilac……so comforting….. maybe it’s the sandalwood in the base?
A creamy lilac sounds beautiful. Yes, maybe sandalwood is contributing to that. Yummy!
It’s actually sunny here today and I think I will put on some Magnolia Nobile.
I’ve been all over the map, perfume-wise, for the past week, though mostly wearing the florals I love. I’m finding I’m not in the mood to try new things much right now, no doubt because of feeling somewhat unsettled. I quite like working from home, though, especially as that allows me to eat lunch with my husband and son, and pay more attention to exercise and my garden. It helps a lot that our weather has mostly been just beautiful. Maybe I’ll do a scent theme this week! By house? Note? Genre? What do you all think, o fragrant ones?
I agree, I’m not sampling or testing new scents either. It doesn’t really feel like the right time.
I fully support a scented theme week! Maybe by note or genre?
Changing things up with French Lime Blossom. Bought this bottle five years ago as a birthday gift to myself.
And I don’t know why No Malone discontinued it. I would think it somewhat popular. It’s my favorite linden fragrance.
I didn’t realize they had discontinued it! I thought it was one of their top sellers. Very strange.
I thought it was a top seller too!!
Brigitte this morning. Will try to squeeze in a walking lunch. After will spray myself silly with Iris Nobile EDT. Had birthday key lime pie for breakfast 😋😋😋
Happy Birthday!!!! 🎉🎂 I hope it’s fabulous! I hope you’re still able to chat with friends and family in a socially distant way 😄
Thank you!!!!
It’s a long work from home day but I got many texts, emails and virtual cards this morning which was lovely.
Oh and on Sunday I spent three hours on the phone with my childhood friend of 52 years. That was so lovely!! We gabbed about all the fun we used to have in the 1980s!! A lifetime ago LOL 🤣
That’s so nice and comforting, especially right now!
Yes! It was just what I needed 😁
Seventeen Google meets ( Skype) scheduled for today starting in about an hour. Might go for Flowerbomb.
Whew, good luck! I am starting to think that some of these zoom meetings could just have been emails!!
Commando right now
Maybe later might test Gabrielle
Sometimes you have to go commando 😂
😹😹😹
Vanille Sauvage de Madagascar. Comfort in a bottle 😂
