Dior Fahrenheit, got it decanted from Sephora a while back. Smells very synthetic and sweet, would get naseuating with multiple uses I think. I do smell a bit of gasoline too.

L'ARtisan Tea for Two. All this time I considered it to be tobacco-heavy; turns out it's Chai Tea.

Oh, well - still a winner in my book (btw, the bottle turned up last night. yay me).

Chai huh? I don't drink enough tea to be able to pick that one out but I agree with you that its definitely more of the tea than tobacco. Where did you get a partial bottle from? TPC?

^^^ basenotes: found one on a swap list and offered to swap for lucre. Not a lot left but enough for me to wear this winter and the next.

Today: I received a bottle of Dunhill for Men (Dunheeel, but let's carry on)...I tried it last night and thought...no way can I wear this in this heat. Maybe next week if the temperatures drop.

Today, though...Mugler Cologne.

My favorite Vetiver! Of course, I'm not surprised to see you wearing it; we always end up liking the same stuff.

I haven't felt well today, so it's one of the first days in years and years I've gone nearly a full day with no fragrance.

I love that stuff. I need a full bottle now that I've used up my two sample sprayers. I also went through a bottle of the shower gel and that was some fantastic, pungent soap.

Dunhill for Men. I'm having a manouche moment here: it opens very very well, and then gets spicy, heavy, and unacceptable for summer wear. I guess it would be fine for winter, but I can't see this getting much more than occasional use.

Dunhill again, but different circumstances: chilly, damp, dreary. Much better.

It just snowed for the first time here, so I don't feel bad wearing my cloyingly sweet scents. A*Men Pure Coffee today. Was lucky to find a bottle at Saks.

Hope you feel better---

I'm on my last few sprays of this one I bought 3 years ago. Funny, of the 4 I bought that year, this is the first one to go.

Today, I'm going for Lubin's Idole-- It's a spicy, rummy exotic fragrance.
