It’s (Teapot) Tuesday and World Fair Play Day. Birthdays: Johns Hopkins, Malcolm X, Nora Ephron, Grace Jones. What fragrance are you wearing?
We’re expecting a scorcher of a day here. I’m in Eau de Guerlain. Tea at the moment is Traditional Medicinals Rose Hips & Hibiscus.
Reminder: 5/23 will be Recommendation Friday…recommend a favorite song, show, movie or book (or any form of entertainment, really) and match a scent to your pick, or to one of the characters, or whatever. Adapted from a recommendation by therabbitsflower.
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.
Note: the Aquazzura Jaipur porcelain teapot (“Aquazzura’s Jaipur collection was created through a love of travel, pattern, geometry, and adventure. The floral motifs are inspired by ancient temple drawings, paired with chevrons and stripes for a contemporary layered tabletop twist. Jaipur evokes the scents and atmospheres of a journey to India, one of Edgardo Osorio’s most-loved destinations”) is $330 at Saks Fifth Avenue.
