It’s Friday plus International Bat Appreciation Day. Our community project for today: wear a fragrance by Hermès, OR something from perfumer Jean-Claude Ellena OR Christine Nagel (this is a repeat from 2014).
What fragrance did you pick? As always, do chime in with your scent of the day even if you’re not participating in the community project.
We are a little cooler here today, but I’m wearing a high summer fragrance anyway: Hermès Brin de Réglisse.
Reminder: on 4/24, celebrate Jean Paul Gaultier’s birthday by wearing one of his fragrances. If you don’t have one, wear anything that you think works with the JPG aesthetic, or maybe a fragrance that you’d put in a torso-shaped bottle? Or, as usual, be as creative and/or farfetched as you like with the theme.
And for those of you who like to plan ahead, see Scent of the day ~ Friday community projects 2026, where I’ll try (but usually fail) to have the next five or six weeks mapped out in advance.
