I almost picked Bas de Soie to wear today as well, but after some indecision, I went with another perfume with hyacinth -- Guerlain Chamade EDT. It's a long time since I wore this classic scent.

Guess what? The Chamade-Bottle was in my hand, when the Lutens winked at me! :D

Today scent is U4eahh! by Yosh
...and, sadly, I think it is not ok anymore...the smell of Maggi is taking over :(
In German we say "gekippt" (tilted) when a Parfume went bad - how do you say that in English? Is there a term?

We might say that a perfume has spoilt, or that it has went rancid. Where I’m from we’d say that it had clabbered :D

Today I’m wearing Jo Malone Tuberose Angelica

Oh, it's unfortunate that the perfume went bad. Here, people will often say a perfume has "turned" or has gone off or gone bad. You can recognize it when the top notes smell more like alcohol and there is no fragrance.
Sometimes, it is just a bit of perfume stuck in the sprayer that has gone off, and if you spray a few times, it will clear the sprayer and the rest of the perfume will still be fine. So make sure to spray a few times to clear the sprayer just to be sure. :smile:

Today's scent: Jovoy Poudre.
