I think I'll be wearing Chloè EdP today.
How you do guys choose which perfume to go for each day? Is there a pattern, or do you simply choose whatever you feel like smelling?
That's how Portrait of a Lady and, in fact, many Frederic Malles are. It's not a house that is easy to love on the first try. I know I certainly didn't get them at first. But something kept making me come back to them, and now it's one of my top three houses. Still, Portrait of a Lady's drydown is a disappointment to me.Giving Portrait of a Lady another try (my original, unopened bottle had a sample vial, and after I made the exchange, the sales assistant very nicely said I can keep the vial). Strangely, I can appreciate POAL much more, in fact the incense smell which I had problems with is now growing on me. So indecisive!
It's great to hear that your brother was such an inspiration. Losing weight and keeping it off takes quite a bit of discipline and consistency, so congratulations to you!Christian Dior Feve Delicieuse
A few years before he died, my brother lost a lot of weight by becoming really active and eating really well. This morning, I woke up and weighed myself to find that I had lost another pound, bringing me to a total of 72 pounds lost in just under 5 months also by becoming really active and eating really well.
I have always thought that Feve Delicieuse was something that my brother would have loved, so I'm wearing it today because I know he helped me get here.

I usually just go by mood. However, the weather also influences me. For instance, I notice I reach for florals like gardenia and orange blossom more often in the warmer months. I also prefer vanilla-centric scents when it's cooler outside.How you do guys choose which perfume to go for each day? Is there a pattern, or do you simply choose whatever you feel like smelling?
Mood, basically. I don't let weather keep me from wearing something I'm in the mood to wear. If the weather seems a bit wrong for something heavier, I just modulate the power of the fragrance with the number of sprays. Some people keep fresh florals for spring and summer, but I sometimes love wearing them in the dead of winter. They can be a very nice change from the warm and spicy fragrances I typically gravitate to particularly when it's cool out. And then some fragrances that people think are only appropriate for fall or winter are things I really like for warm summer nights.How you do guys choose which perfume to go for each day?
