It’s Tuesday and National Tempura Day. Birthdays: Zora Neale Hurston and Gerald Durrell. What fragrance are you wearing?
There is apparently a tradition in Denmark that if you’re still single at 25, your friends can cover you in cinnamon. I suspect this is not widely practiced but it’s a good story, and so I’m wearing cinnamon, in Tauer Perfumes Phi — Une Rose de Kandahar. Tea at the moment is Numi Golden Chai, with extra cinnamon to stay on theme.
Reminder: on 1/10, we’re off to Denmark! Wear a perfume that is named for a place in Denmark, or that reminds you of a (real or imaginary) trip to Denmark, 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 2025, where I’ll try (but usually fail) to have the next five or six weeks mapped out in advance.
Note: The Nordic Sea Tea Pot shown above is by Broste Copenhagen, and comes in multiple sizes and colors. (We featured one before.)
