It’s Wednesday. Happy National Nurses Day (the first day of National Nurses week) and do enjoy International No Diet Day! Birthdays: Sigmund Freud, Willie Mays, George Clooney. What fragrance are you wearing?
“That simple pleasures of looking at butterflies in the garden is calming to the soul and spirit and good for us all”,* says David Attenborough. I’m in L’Artisan La Chasse aux Papillons.
Reminder: 5/8 is Sir David Frederick Attenborough’s 100th birthday! Honor the occasion however you like: scent your favorite animal? Wear a fragrance that honors plants or water or anything natural? Wear a fragrance that makes you think of one of your favorite Attenborough television series? It’s a pretty open field (and it’s also Iris Day, in case you want to kill two birds with one stone).
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.
