Happy Friday and happy National Red Wine Day! Birthdays: Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, Edward Burne Jones, Robertson Davies, Janet Frame, Rita Dove. RIP Tim Curry and Yayoi Kusama. Our community project for today: "the exception to the rule"...wear a fragrance that you love despite not generally caring for fragrances of its kind, or its brand, or its main note, or whatever...you come up with the rule and the exception.

What fragrance did you pick? As always, do chime in with your scent of the day even if you’re not participating in the community project.

My plan for today was L'Occitane Immortelle de Corse, a favorite of Kevin's. I did not think I would love it because I don't usually love immortelle, but as it turned out it's the only immortelle fragrance that has ever grabbed me...unfortunately, it was limited edition and I did not decide in time that I wanted a bottle. Regrets! I do still have a few drops but I cannot wear it today so I am commando, running late, and behind on everything (I have not read yesterday's comments, and likely won't be able to read today's until tomorrow, we'll see). If I do not manage to post at all on Saturday, please use this post as an open thread...I will almost certainly be back early next week.

Reminder: once again we are fresh out of community projects...wear a fragrance that celebrates how there is never enough time to do everything you ought to do!

And for those of you who like to plan ahead, see Scent of the day ~ Friday community projects 2026, where I'll occasionally manage to have the next five or six weeks mapped out in advance .
