Perfumed PTA

Beautiful composition as always, evokes a lovely ethereal swan

Looks like there's 30ml -50ml libre edt bottles in Mercari without caps (why people?!) for good prices. It's still available; just have to visit those discount and decant sites

And other stories Lost Chapter Top notes Cardamom, carrot, cumin Heart notes Fig, iris, black tea Base notes Sandalwood, papyrus, Tonka bean

YSL Libre Edt (now discontinued sadly) Top notes French lavender, mandarin orange, bergamot Heart notes Jasmine absolute, jasmine tea, Moroccan orange blossom absolute Base notes Musk, ambergris, vanilla

#sotd And Other stories Lost Chapter layered with YSL Libre Edt. I was running on low energy (thanks to a chronic symptom flare 😑) and the carrot added some sparkle to the lavender while the jasmine tea was given a bit more tannin weight by the black tea. Better than caffeine! #perfumesky

I'm coming up on 2 years with the other 0.5 mil of everything except Cryptical Development, so ditto 😂

It was under $30 with shipping and considering the cost of L'eau Papier that seemed like a good deal to me. I feel that's better than blind buying bottles that I'll never get through

Some tastes differ sure but the fact that you had a travel spray of OO Tropical of Cancer will always resonate with me

😂 You provided that inspiration for L'eau Papier Runa but I regret nothing.

Seeing this around my area too. Such a waste on so many levels and totally preventable 😭

🤦🏻 #perfumesky and #fragrancesky community, why am I lured by the sirens?

But it was such a good deal!

Samples of the following AND a 5ml decant of Diptyque L'eau Papier for a very low-balled Mercari bundle:

Kismet Olfactive- The Poet
Pearfat- Sister Hildegard
Filigree & Shadow- Gunet Water

From official Stoneandwit.com website: Notes: Fresh ginger, fig preserves, caramel, cherry, almonds, blonde suede Descriptors: Jam, fruits, gourmand, leather Ingredients: Isopropyl myristate, fragrance Known Allergens: Citral, citronellol About: Fresh ginger, fig preserves, and deep blonde suede combine into a sweet and zesty playfulness that's kept grounded by a soft and earthy suede accord. Named for (and by!) my son, I sought to capture the layers of his personality through the traditional layers of the fragrance pyramid. His loud and wild exterior (as well as his red hair), his intensely warm and sweet character, wrapping you with hugs and cuddles and love. Bright and spicy fresh ginger cuts through a rich accord of fig preserves, caramel, almond and cherry, the blonde suede accord gives a soft and deep base.

Dipping into my @stoneandwit.bsky.social samples finally! Kicked it off with my #sotd The Red Hare. Aromatic golden hues of fig, blonde suede, caramel, and almond punctuated with a popping candied ginger that pleasantly buzzes your nose. Cozy indeed and not tooth achingly sweet. #perfumesky

If this is what a future politician looks like, @katmabu.bsky.social has my vote (and I don't even live in IL 09, but I want to...)

This!!! Notes are so subjective and sometimes not at all intended. Vibes are more universal and lend themselves to the sweetest floral to the darkest chypre

Was wondering about this one! Thanks for the review ☺️

My fave from this house - just wish it lasted more than 4 hours before going skin scent on me

What is your experience with this one? I heard Coromandel from a few vloggers or is it it's own thing?

That's how fragrance can be and especially good 😏 fragrances grab you in a deep embrace or a hot searing kiss. Let loose your scented soirees here, we all love to share in the unbridled joy and at time horrors of fragrant experiences

Congratulations!!! You are living the PNW dream...or at least mine

All classics! What a gorgeous group 😍

#sotd Olympic Orchids Osafume, nose Dr. Ellen Covey. First wear was gauzy and this one is a thick purled lace that despite open patches of a concept kept me warm all day. My tastes have changed since I sampled this last and I no longer identify with the fluffy Heliotrope musks. Too 🧁

#perfumesky

🥰 your reply gives me the warm fuzzies. I looked at the notes and comparisons and knowing how Guerlain is so dusty soft with their compositions, it must have tickled your nose with comfort and bubbly aldehydes. Do you wear any aldehyde perfumes for memories of her?

Thank you! It was understated but still absolutely wonderful in the best way 🥰

#perfumesky and #fragrancesky community, catch-up time!

#sotd Monday finished Ormande Jayne Frangipani sample. 😑

#sotd today is Giorgio GBH. 🥰

Also acquired Alkemia oils and a vintage Ysatis edt 4ml for my 40th bday. Eager to give impressions of both current and vintage formulations soon!

I smelled that one the other day. Oh just no.

It's becoming that for me every time I come back to my sample 💟

Ooooh darn it. Now it's on the active search for eBay and mercari

One of the only salty cashmerans that lingers without giving me aggressive TMJD. It's so gorgeous!

There's just something about this one.....it's still on my list

Ugh, I'm sorry. Civic duty must be done but why?!

Nice to know it's a shared struggle. Citrus just doesn't go well on my skin without smelling like cleaning products (pledge comes to mind) and/or pickles

Top notes Grapefruit, Narcissus, Lily of the valley Heart notes Rose, mimosa, tuberose Base notes Leather, iris

#sotd Hermès Kelly Caleche edt. Astringent grapefruit bordering on pickles for me but never completely goes to the brine. I think I like the idea of grapefruit frags but in practice they are so screechy on my skin. Without the citrus, it would be a soft floral draped in leather. Classy.
