#sotd Alien Flora Futura is the breath of the desert at night. Crisp, after the rain citrus, pulls the curtain back to reveal a non-synthetic and iridescent night blooming cactus flower and its curling tendrils while an amber of warmth still clings to the petals. #fragrancesky #perfumesky

#sotd Motivate me Monday was actually delightful. Despite it being another crazy day in the clinic, I remained calm and centered in my waxy chamomile candle. The night blooming jasmine adds just enough umami to the composition to ground the airiness of the chamomile.🤌🏻💋 #fragrancesky #perfumesky

Mushrooms painted magically. There is so much metallic depth in that background. #watercolor #andreanelsonart

Been busy this evening. Didn't want to do the flow of consciousness study so followed Andrea Nelson's lightning bug tutorial from last summer in its place. Strawberries were completed to the final chapter of Anne of Green Gables Audio Book. #watercolor #andreanelsonart

Combined the Ulta Discount with another coupon (🫣) and amazingly it worked. This smells like warm skin on holiday with a boozy undertone from both an oaky Chardonnay, cognac, and peach brandy. Heavy nostalgia for me on all levels and instant eyes-fluttering-to-back-of-head-moment. #fragrancesky

#sotd Wit and West Rosé LA. An alchemical masterpiece that called to mind the memory of drinking a boozy glass of Rosé sitting on a California patio overlooking rows of green vineyard vines. Out of my comfort zone but it's always a pleasure to wear art. #fragrancesky #perfumesky

#fragrancesky and #perfumesky friends, I just picked up these on clearance at the Snif website. They are discounting Natural Talent, Way With Woods, Pacifico, Ace Ace Baby, and Strawberry Moon and along with the signup discount they were Mercari resale prices for BNIB.

#sotd Feeling sassy with my new hair cut (hold for obligatory hair cut joke) so to the Bond Girl I go, lips encrusted in sugar crusted fruits, spinning in a floral blizzard while wrapped in a Grojsman 🤗 huggy accord. #fragrancesky

#sotd Motivate me Monday. Such a beautifully understated, starched collar peeking out of a tailored blazer, final touch of a fragrance. Calming, glowing, and just the right✨of natural sweetness. Trying to decide if I need a summer iris that also may play well with others. #fragrancesky #perfumesky

That One Person@randomcicada.bsky.social · 2w ago

#SOTD: SUGANAMI (Snif) In winter, this was a skin scent, but it's surprising me with a lovely scent bubble in hot weather. It's a very irisy iris, but musk and resins also shine, with an occasional hint of cypress and cola. I might need to own this after all. #FragranceSky #PerfumeSky

#sotd was going to be Aura Sensuelle but upon first spray, I was met with the death knell of alcohol ☠️. She originally was part of a Mercari Bundle so no way to know how she was stored before. MH Rose Silence oil to the rescue and voila - a dark jammy but creamy rose was achieved. #fragrancesky

#sotd Kyoto In Bloom by Australian lifestyle brand Glasshouse. A very soft, over washed watercolor that has impressions of pineapple, florals, and woods. It's completely unlike anything else in my collection and a great memory sniffing my way through the Sydney airport. #fragrancesky #perfumesky

Day 7 Andrea Nelson Art Summer 2026 Sketchbook. I wanted my American White Pelican and the pond I see everyday driving home in the Interior Pacific Northwest #watercolor #sketchbook

Days 4-6 of Andrea Nelson Art's Summer 2026 Sketchbook #watercolor #sketchbook

#sotd Sampling Saturday. Starts soapy then warms with the spice to a floral background hum of vaguely rosy undertones. Has since been reformulated with fruits, but I don't feel a connection to hunt her down as she was. #fragrancesky #perfumesky

#sotd F*it Friday. After the disappointment of Vanilla Rice I reached into my own collection and found this gem. No milky undertone but I'll take the feeling of sipping on cold hojicha while smelling flowers at a Japanese botanical garden over milky rice and day. #fragrancesky #perfumesky

#sotd Chloe Nomade Lumiere d'Egypte. My poor little 5 ml dabber that arrived half empty (I was refunded the difference). Tart,spicy, and translucent. Sucker for lotus 🙋🏻, a non soapy jasmine 🙋🏻, and spices that don't go spice cabinet 🙋🏻. Looking forward to wearing it in cooler temps. #fragrancesky

Narcisso Rodriguez Musc Noir Rose as my Try it Again Thurs #sotd. A frankenstein of other scents I own and I emptied 2.5 ml to get it to stand on my skin. Inspiring for layering combinations I guess. Lipstick on a Tuberose wearing a rose mask dries to a velvet chocolate patchouli. Meh🤷🏻 #fragrancesky

#sotd Miller Harris Tea Tonique. Impulse buy for coupon use with Miller Harris summer sale (now over). Crisp citrus cools in triple digit weather (101 F 🫠). 4 hours in, the heart is spicy but still cooling and this holds into the dry down where the bitter teas soften into the musk. #fragrancesky

#sotd Peace Love and Juicy Couture for amended throw back Tuesday because 2010 was not that long ago 😑. Opens tart and shampoo then dries down to a layered, powdery linden blossom. I couldn't stop smelling myself. I already have a linden fragrance, but under $25 is a bargain! #fragrancesky

#watercolor following Andrea-Nelson-Art on YouTube for her summer sketchbook series. Just thought I'd share my progress

Hello lovely #perfumesky and #fragrancesky folks! I did some rearranging and I feel like this one will stick. Planning for no buy 2027. I love everything in here.

#sotd started with BS Blissful Fantasy to determine if nostalgia was worth purchasing a full bottle. At least in summer, it is not. A quick layer with Marissa Zappas Tragedy Oil and I donned a much more bold tuberose and Tiaré flower crown with a soft melon glow. #fragrancesky #perfumesky

#sotd ☀️ day. After morning sampling of a few perfumes that were in purgatory, I settled on a midday pick me up of Infamy. A hit of grapey tuberose is nearly swallowed by soft bubbly musks, including cotton and hefeveisen in drydown. Now to let it sit and develop like all good oils do. #fragrancesky

Out of season experiments were my #sotd for the last 2 days: it was sweltering on 🤬 it Fri and the spicy Tuberose bloom in the heat from Mugler Alien Fusion was divine. 🤤 Sat. bubbled along on Trunk Cloud Cardamom but the C02 scent trail I usually get didn't stand in this heat. #fragrancesky

Had some time to kill at Sephora, so I let my nose lead the way to these impressions: G B Ambrosia d'oro - bloom then heady YELLOW florals that I have already 🙂‍↔️. EB Isla Sirena is a creamy tropical drink that goes coconut pulp 🙂‍↔️, EB Guava granita was promising but goes shampoo. #fragrancesky p1

#sotd Angélique by 👃🏻 Liz Moores of her own house, Papillon Artisan Perfumes🦋. Now that I have more references, I immediately got the angelic brush of mimosa and sweet frankincense. No iris and the champaca and osmanthus read ashy tobacco on my skin so more devil than angel. #fragrancesky

#sotd Motivate me Mon did its job with me keeping this silly little weirdo of a fresh blast of flowers, Romeo Gigli Romeo. Wear What I Want Wed Bill Blass Nude is another keeper with its crystalized flowers giving me a Grojsman hug all day. Such comforting scents in their own ways 🤗 #fragrancesky

#sotd Clinique Aromatics Elixir. That rosewood lingers just a little too long on fabric for me to enjoy this with my typical application amount, but on skin...the drydown is very creamy sweet floral that if I could bottle just the drydown I would wear that alone. #fragrancesky #perfumesky

#sotd ☀️ day: The Good Scent Blooming Daisy. Great blind buy from TJ Maxx. A delightful sparkling daisy fragrance faceted with stemmy vegetation and slightly shampooey green apple that reads more as a glossy clean hair smell as it bounces in a daisy field. Very refreshing! #fragrancesky #perfumesky

#fragrancesky and #perfumesky friends, what note(s) are you a complete sucker for, and what perfumes (if any) have you acquired just for that 🤤 note?
