SOTD Caron Tabac Blond
This one was probably the first or second perfume I've bought for myself, when I was just getting into trying scents. I used to drive the Caron sales attendant mad! But this was love at first sight. I hate the smell or smoke, but I love tobacco notes in perfume. This is very subtle too, a bit like if you're walking in a blooming garden and someone has been smoking a few metres away. And you're wearing a cashmere coat and the sun is shining, and it's mid afternoon on a warm day in October.
I have this one too! I love it so much, it's so sunny and warm
Old Shalimar is to die for! Again, quite different in the modern version
Yeah I searched the old formulas out back when ebay still permitted old perfume sales and they could be sent by post. That's no longer possible sadly
Some of the perfumes are so true to the original flower, it's always a fascination to wear.. Like En Passant for lilac or Carnal Flower for tuberose. As if the flowers are right there in front of you.
SOTD vintage Diorissimo edp
This mini is a bit battered, but the scent is still gorgeous as ever. I estimate it is probably the formulation from the 80s. I always thought of it as a very realistic lily of the valley, but this year I actually compared it with the real flowers, and it they're way sweeter. I do prefer the old formula, the more recent ones feel more diluted and watery, and don't project as much
Where I am, it's dry, sunny, +25C. Sadly I too am stuck in a office that slightly over air-conditioned
I'm still playing Brotato and have also started Sunless Skies. It runs pretty well on steam deck with a community controller layout. oh and the last game completed was Stray. I didn't get all of the achievements but it was a lovely game
Seconded, I want to know! I absolutely love Fleur de Cassie, actually thusbpost reminded me to dig it out to wear.
That doesn't look disastrous! and you have enough length left to correct the shape to something rounder if that's what you had before
Oh man, that must be galling. At least you know it'll grow back eventually. time to look for a new barber?
I enjoyed the "what games are you playing" thread, could do that once every few weeks maybe
Saw a recommendation for brotato on here, bough it before going on holiday and now I'm paying this instead of, I don't know, sightseeing and shit
Slowly going through Stray and Disco Elysium. I have like 30 minutes a week to spend on gaming 😥
