7/7/15 - Today is Dee (soft English leather, rosewood and tonka with a hint of incense, parchment and soft woods). Something about this scent is so comforting.

Wearing Greed (notes: patchouli, heliotrope, copal and oakmoss) today, it's one of my favorite GCs but I rarely hear anyone else giving it accolades. It is reminiscent of "money smell," but in a much more wearable way, and to me it's unisex, though I hear most folks describing it as definitely on the masculine side.

7/6/15 - Today I am wearing Beautiful Death (A tragedy in one act: pale sandalwood threaded with a vanilla filigree, bitter green cognac, white tobacco, and Roman chamomile, stained by a splash of black tea and the deceptively sweet juice of belladonna berries.) This is another of Beth's wonderful scents in her "Lace" series. As always, she captures the feel of being veiled for a Victorian funeral - only this one you become the corpse instead of the mourner. There is a dryness to this lace scent, and just a tad hint of something not-living. It is beautiful!

Today I decided to test Magnificent Autumn. But instead of just testing it, I felt the need to slather! It is truely the scent of a perfect autumn from the first cool day where the leaves are still green and wet from dew, through the changing of the leaves and the sunny days/cool nights, all the way down to the leaves falling to the ground. It compares to my favorite scent Autumn Coolness - but is just ever so slightly different. I am truly enjoying this scent - though I very much prefer the dry down to the wet scent.

Even better it seems to have some staying power and a moderate throw.

7/8/15 - A Bachelor's Dog (Soft musk, leather, and Brazilian cigar tobacco.). It is so comforting and warm. I just want to curl up with a blanket and watch my favorite movies on repeat while reading a good book.
