Friday scent of the day 3/22
It’s the first Friday of Spring 2024. (Also, World Water Day and William Shatner’s birthday.) Our community project for today: wear a spring floral, or any fragrance that says spring to you (if you’re in the southern hemisphere, adjust accordingly.)
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.
I’m in Jour d’Hermès (again), although if I could find it, I’d be in Frédéric Malle En Passant (I included both in 5 perfumes: pretty spring florals)…
