It’s Hump Day. Birthdays: Robert Browning, Gary Cooper, Ruth Prawer Jhabvala, Angela Carter, Peter Carey. What fragrance are you wearing?

It will not be hard to guess my fragrance of the day: Old School French meets Harry Potter.

Reminder: 5/9 will be Guessing Game Friday (edition 5)! Our community project for today: describe your perfume to us, OR, give your perfume the name it ought to have had, and we’ll see if we can guess what it is. Suggested by Glannys.

And for those of you who like to plan ahead, see Scent of the day ~ Friday community projects 2025, where I’ll try (but usually fail) to have the next five or six weeks mapped out in advance.
