It’s Almost-Friday, Bill of Rights Day and National Cupcake Day. Birthdays today: Gustave Eiffel, John Hammond, Edna O’Brien. What fragrance are you wearing?
I’m in Guerlain Après L’Ondée, for the character Anne Elliot, in Jane Austen’s 1817 novel Persuasion.
Reminder: 12/16 is Jane Austen’s birthday. Name a favorite Jane Austen novel (or movie, or television series) and wear a fragrance to match, or, wear a fragrance to register your general lack of interest in Austenmania.
And for those of you who like to plan ahead, see Scent of the day ~ Friday community projects 2022, where I’ll try (but obviously sometimes fail) to always have the next five or six weeks mapped out in advance.
