It’s Tuesday and International Men’s Day. What fragrance are you wearing?

I’m currently commando for a morning exercise class, and finishing off a cup of Upton Christmas Tea.

Reminder: on 11/22, we’re off to Nepal! Wear a perfume that is named for a place in Nepal, or that reminds you of a (real or imaginary) trip to Nepal, or that features a local ingredient, or ?

And for those of you who like to plan ahead, see Scent of the day ~ Friday community projects 2024, where I’ll try (but usually fail) to have the next five or six weeks mapped out in advance.

Note: the Josilo teapot (“These AURA QUE stoneware ceramics are handmade near Bhaktapur, Nepal by a family business run by two brothers, Santa and Laxmi. The production is organised by a World Fair Trade Organisation certified collective in Kathmandu”) is $42 at Aura Que in the UK.
