What are you wearing, Fragrance edition!

[MikuNerd65]

I'm one of those gals that are obsessed with fragrances and have about around 50 60 70 80 and still collecting...(if you want to call it that.) So I would like to know what are you wearing today?

I'm wearing Obsession...(hahaha kinda fits this thread, doesn't it? :D)

Wearing Areej le Dore's Russian Oud today, a rich and chewy chocolatey oud ❤️ Many thanks to @Vmaster for introducing me to this house!

[howconnie]

Sounds interesting, a chocolate out that wears well in spring 

[pocketvenus]

@howconnieoddly it's quite heavy wearing but I can still see myself wearing this in the summer. Maybe it's the medicinal edge that the oud brings.

I’m currently obsessed with Tocca products. I just bought Tocca Stella, I love it. A floral/citrusy scent perfect for summer. 

TOCCA - Stella

Bois de Balincourt by Maison Louis Marie. I am so obsessed with this perfume and I’ve gotten a lot of compliments already and I’ve had it for maybe two weeks. I smelled it and was immediately like yep, this is the one. This perfume is described as woody/spicy, and when I first smelledit, it reminded me of lush fragrance of the eucalyptus trees surrounding my grandmas home. It smells very sophisticated and feminine and not heavy, musky, or overpowering at all. I’m 17 so this is kind of my graduation from fruity/super sweet florals I guess.

@AnonymousI liked the opening for this one too 🙂

[heartsmyface]

Oh my gosh I am just trying Tocca Florence for the first time!  It has gardenia, tubrose and iris and is the most wonderfully delicate and sweet floral!  Ha, I don’t need another perfume but I am considering trading out a few older ones for this one.

@heartsmyface this is the one i get for my granny (she loves those white florals, and i thought the beautiful bottle would cheer her up too).  ❤️

Happy Thursday Sephora Sale Shoppers,

FYI the Sephora Sale Section is Turnt Up for Memorial Day weekend today. I’m so excited for everyone. Of course I bought a ton during VIB.

Today I’m wearing the house of Mauboussin Histoire D’eau it’s very green and soapy on me. It smells like the forest edge combined with trimmed hedges and mowed grass. The smell of little forest creatures in the form of amber and leather is in there. My vintage decant smells like spring, but a fresher sample may still have the spicy notes. It last all day, smells like a expensive niche fragrance but can be had fairly cheap.

Yesterday I wore my decant of La Fille De Berlin. This is the second decant I’ve received and it’s better than the first. Hopefully by the time I save up for the bottle the formula is the same. It smells like a jammy incense filled rose garden. Like at a monastery rose garden filled with herbs and bedecked with fruit trees and grape vines. I can hear the nuns singing in Latin in the background. A squirrel sits in the tree enjoying a juicy orange, Young lovers are planning their wedding, toddlers run around laughing while mom plans a baptism. The priest are perfumed from tasting the wine, birds are singing, and peace is in the air.

@howconnie, I love La Fille de B. Missed your imaginative descriptions! 🙂

[howconnie]

Thanks, Perfume evokes such vision. It takes us places in our minds. I just try to share.

[pocketvenus]

@howconnie100% agree, fragrance sparks the imagination!
