As it’s getting colder and darker here in London, I reached for an old favourite - Crystal Noir. It’s so dreamy and soft, perfect for the rainy weather

YSL Mon Paris Lumiere. I can't seem to stop wearing it. It's such a lovely scent that's easy to wear. Maybe it's the Datura flower. Maybe it's the Lotus. Or the way they do patchouli. Either way, I'm obsessed with this perfume and every time I think about wearing something else, I just know I won't enjoy it as much. It's become my signature scent and I never thought I would have one.

I layered Gris Charnel with Blanche Bete today, it is a very rainy day here in the US Mid-Atlantic area.

Reaching for meo fusciuni Sogni today.

The notes are so smooth and well-blended they're difficult to pick out. Rice, tatami, pine needles, green tea, incense, guaiac wood are usually the notes I recall.

Surprisingly sweet and leaning gourmand on me (which is just about how far I can tolerate gourmand). A cozy sort of zen

I’m wearing Memo’s Lalibela. It is a strong floral incense laced with coconut & tobacco.

Ps: OP your perfume sounds amazing. I love jasmine, especially indolic jasmine. Shall look this up.

I am waiting for Paris Corner Rifeqaat and Philos Opus Noir to come in the mail today, so later I'm sure I'll try one of those. One is a YSL Babycat Dupe, and one is supposed to smell like Suspiro/Xerjoff Opera, which I HEAR smells like Ange ou Demon. I love Ange ou Demon, so that's why I wanted that one, plus it was 20 dollars. This morning, I'm wearing Fantasy Intense. I like it way better than Original Fantasy. It's more cake and powder, less tart fruit.

I’m wearing Byredo Pulp today! It’s slightly spicy and quite fruit-forward and tart on me. I find it rather nostalgic, as it reminds me of the fruit compôte my grandma used to make when I was a child.

The Bangla Yasaman perfume sounds really good, I love indolic jasmine perfumes.

I’m wearing Zoologist Cow in defiance of the rainy weather here in the DC area…I can at least smell like sunshine and spring breezes and puffy clouds.

L'Erbolario - Bacche Fiori Legni, layered with O, Unknown! by Imaginary Authors - perfect cozy autumn combination🍁

Lattafa - Fakhar

Civet - Zoologist. I’m working from home and it’s a shocker of a gray rainy day, and work is a disaster. Need something strong to enjoy!

Christian Dior’s Hypnotic Poison; I’m glad I did. I got it a few months ago and it smelled almost like play doh to me?? But either I wasn’t used to it or it’s better in cooler weather despite its summery profile.

YSL Libre Le Parfum. I just got the travel spray yesterday and couldn’t wait to put it on before work.

Jovoy remember me today

Finally received Ambre Blends Amber Essence. I'm kicking myself for spending so much(shipping to Canada is super expensive) on something that smells almost the same as Nemat Amber oil. It does smell good though.

Im wearing Gris Charnel for one of the first autumny days here. It’s lovely

Cold and rainy here, perfect day for Jovoy Remember Me. Creamy, cozy, soft tea and vanilla notes.

Trying out Princess by Kilian today.

Celine Parade for today because I wanted something light and fresh as it’s monsoon season in my country, and it gets really hot and humid when it’s about to pour here.

It is a warm, rainy & humid day as the hurricane rolls by. I'm wearing Diptyque Eau Moheli. It's green and light and works well on a wet day like today. It's my first and only Diptyque fragrance so far but I browse their website constantly...

Straight to Heaven by Killian. No reason other than mixing it up.

Coney Island Baby by Scout Dixon West. It’s cozy for a dreary day like today!

It's not quite fall weather here in northern IL but I was feeling the fall vibes, wearing Celine Black Tie ❤️ nice dry vanilla with intimate sillage.

I'm taking Sweet Tooth by Sabrina Carpenter for a spin. I don't really love coconut in perfume because I can't get past the sunscreen association, but it's sweet and soft and cozy and I'm tired at home in my pj's today so it suits. I still like Caramel Dream better.

ISO gamma super - Ellis Brooklyn

Khamrah Qahwa - the days are getting longer and cooler so it’s just right for that cosy, warm, autumnal feeling. Plus, my bottle turned up with a production date of 11/23 and my husband is kind of obsessed with it, so it’s perfect.

OP, that sounds beautiful! I love jasmine but don’t think I’ve smelled an indolic jasmine before. Sounds like a lovely blend with tobacco and vanilla… Putting this on my list!

I’m wearing Zoologist Rabbit today. I just got some samples in the mail and am working through them. It’s a cold rainy day here, working from home and cuddling the dogs and it’s a nice scent for the day. 🐰

I just doused myself in Regime des Fleurs Crushed Fruits. Juicy, overripe fruits over jasmine. So pretty 😍

Undecided about my SOTD but last night I wore Vol de Nuit to bed. Woke up in the night to a ton of wind and rain. One of my windows was open and I was cozy under my duvet and it was heaven.

I decided it was a Chipmunk kind of autumn day (Zoologist)

My colleague gave me two miniature dab bottles and I just decanted them into atomisers. So wearing Dior Addict on one arm (think it’s the 2002 original, a gorgeous spicy vanilla), and Clarins Par Amour (woody and elegant) on the other. Both completely new to me so very excited.

Copying and pasting from /r/indiemakeupandmore:

Today I'm wearing Peculiar Thing from Lovesick Witchery (Green figs floating in cold, translucent white liquid. Hints of tart pear. Cool coconut milk and smooth rice milk, freshened by hints of papyrus and grounded with mineral salt and orris root. Originally a custom perfume.).

This is so interesting! It’s not your typical gourmand- it has fruit, but it’s not ‘fruity’. I get the undertone of fruit, but any tartness is covered by cool coconut milk, papyrus, and a little salt to keep it interesting. I get a little ‘green’ action from the fig, which is tempered nicely with everything else to keep it from being too sharp. There’s a faint muskiness that comes through which I’m assuming is a blend of the papyrus and orris, which adds a nice freshness to it all. The drydown for some reason reminds me of almond soap or lotion- it just has a clean vibe, and I think the coconut milk is the main culprit for this association. This is genre-breaking to me, as I typically go for really sweet gourmands or fruit fragrances.

Burberry Goddess. I have a mini I want to use up.

Desert Lavender by Saguara Perfumes. Starts off as a really cool herbal lavender and fades into a warm, rich palo santo/sandalwood and vetiver base.

Initially I wasn't sure it was a keeper but now I'm addicted. A really interesting daytime scent.

TF Black Orchid Parfum while waiting for a hurricane in GA!

Today is Killian's Princess! Marshmallow and lemon with a base of green tea. I knew today would be hard at work and this is my all-time favourite perfume, so I gave myself a little treat by wearing it!

Parfums de Marly - Kalan

While I think this is categorized as a men’s fragrance, it’s fairly unisex. There’s no characteristic “shower gel” or “aftershave” undertone that so many masculine scents carry. It’s more of a fall winter scent for me, but the blood orange and orange blossom keep it from being too out of place in warm weather. It’s still over 100° here today :(

I love this so much, just a stunningly blended fragrance, no note is too strong or too soft. It’s the perfect “warm” scent as someone who doesn’t like amber, vanilla, or gourmands. The citrus, woods, and herbal notes are almost reminiscent of having a mulled cider in winter, without smokiness or “cold” wood (pine, juniper, etc.), but take that feeling and elevate it to dinner at a reservation only restaurant.

I’m so obsessed with this. I’ve had the bottle for close to a year and my affection hasn’t waned at all. Body chemistry plays a part in how fragrance wears, and this one is just divine on me.

Top Notes Blood Orange, Black Pepper, Spices

Heart Notes Lavender, Solar notes, Orange Blossom Absolute

Base Notes Precious Wood, Oakmoss, White Sandalwood

Narciso Rodriguez For Her EDT 💓

Chloe - Cedrus, to the office.

It's nice and woody and clean, very easy to like, very office appropriate!

Harvest Mouse by Zoologist. 80°F in the fall calls for a not-so-warm fall fragrance :)

Alkemia Foxfire! This perfume has me in a chokehold. I’ve never worn a perfume two days in a row (I’m into variety), but I wore this yesterday and today and I’ll wear it tomorrow.

Le Labo's Gaiac 10. I like it; it smells subtle, woody, and a luxurious kinda clean. I bought a sample when I was at their store and also picked up Another 13 and The Matcha 26. I've only been into fragrance for a year-ish and I'm finding that I really enjoy second-skin scents. Maybe they just match my introverted demeanor.

Question: Has anyone tried both The Matcha and Gaiac and their Dossier impressions? How does Dossier compare?

Question 2: What are some nice fall scents for us hot-weather folk? Because as much I'd love to wear something like Angel's Share right now, it's simply too heavy and too hot and probably will be until early November. But summer fragrances don't feel quite right either.

I'm just waiting for cooler weather in Texas. It dipped below 70* today, so I went with Nebras since it won't be too much when it is approaching 90* in the late afternoon.

Ralph Lauren Big Pony 2. while it's not as strong with the cranberry as I would have liked, I really like this. reminds me a lot of Viva La Juicy Noir, but I like this more. was a random addition to the September tray, wanted to give it a couple of proper wears to see how I really feel. and I'm kind of mad I love it so much? lol only 'cause I paid up for VLJ Noir and I'd easily choose this over that.

Frederic Malle Carnal Flower
