Answer:
It is already 1:30am here... I am scratching my head and wonder what to wear for this Floral SnS. Floral is such a huge olfactory with so many choices and subdivided into many branches.
I have an idea... would my nose die if I try all the floral subgroups within the same day? According to OsMoz, there are 10 different subgroups under floral namely:
Aldehyde, Aquatic, Carnation, Fruity, Green, Jasmine, Muguet, Orange Tuberose Rose Violet, Woody Musk
Now, I am going to start this from midnight and randomly pick something from my drobe for each floral sub-category:
Aldehyde: Yves Saint Laurent - Rive Gauche
Aquatic: Davidoff - Coolwater
Carnation: MPG - Soie Rouge
Fruity:Annick Goutal - Folavril
Green: Hermes - Hiris
Jasmine: Dior - Pure Poison
Muguet: Estee Lauder - Pleasures
Orange Tuberrose: Chloe
Rose Violet: Lancome - Tresor
Woody: Armani - Mania (New)
I am having hesitation now...

Answer:
Hiya Gorgeous ladies!! ::waves to Quarry & Coconut::

I am pretty forlorn at the moment because, even though spring has sprung, it has obviously forgotten to turn up the thermostat. I tend not to reach for florals in warmer or cooler months. So even though spring is my traditional season for indulging / submerging myself in the bounteous wonders of florals - the weather is just too cold for them.

I want to still remain faithful to the Sniff 'n' Speak cause so I shall rustle up a few 'Warm Florals' so that I can participate.

I shall probably pick one or two of the following:

Givenchy Amarige
Chloe Narcisse
Rasa Xtreme
Lagerfeld Chloe
Lagerfeld Sun Moon Stars
Caron Bellodgia
Caron Coup de Fouet
Nemat Narcissus
Nemat Sweet Jasmine
Montale Black Aoud
Caron Nuit de Noel
Lanvin Arpege EDP
Guerlain Samsara
Serge Lutens Cedre
Guerlain Mahora
Bijan Woman
Cacharel Loulou
Caron Farnesiana
Dior Dior Addict Eau Fraiche
Guerlain Ylang et Vanille
Dior Dioressence
Dior Poison EdP
Dana Raffinee
Dana Tabu Red Heels
Crabtree & Evelyn Nadira
Elizabeth Arden 5th Avenue
Givenchy Hot Couture
Givenchy Ysatis
Gucci Accenti
Guerlain Nahema
Hermes 24 Faubourg
Jean Patou 1000 / Mille
Jean Paul Gaultier Classique EDP or Parfum
Jo Malone Vintage Gardenia with Cardamom and Myrrh
Joop! Femme
Lancome Tresor
Lancome Poeme
LUSH Ginger
Moschino by Moschino
Vivienne Westwood Boudoir

Answer:
Given the technological delays, let's address florals on Saturday, April 14.
Maybe the weather will get more spring-like in the meantime.
I'll start a new SnS thread later this week.


Answer:
Great plan, Quarry. I'd hate to think we were giving the florals a pass.

Answer:
Here is what I ended up wearing for the SnS Floral 7 Apr 07, but I think we should grant an extention as this will give me another chance to examine the other subgroups for the coming Saturday.
1:30am - Armani Mania (Floral Woody )
This one was created in 2004. It is a fresher, younger bubbly version. I think the pepper made it sharp and spicy but I felt asleep when it got down to the middle notes which is probably the essence of this scent. I was trying a mini and definitely not bottle worthy in my opinion as I still prefer the older version which leans towards a spicy oriental accord.
Top notes : Moroccan bay leaf, Green Mandarin Orange, Black Currant, Pink Pepper
Middle notes : Magnolia, Peony, Lily-of-the-Valley, Provençal Iris
Base notes : White Sandalwood, Virginia Cedar, Amber, Vanilla, Musk
11:00am – Chloe (Floral Orange Tuberose)
Created in 1975, one of the best value drug store fragrance which I could not live without. This one has a few of my favourite ingredients captured (coconut, tuberose, orris, musk, ceder and sandal). This is a tuberose powerhouse scent which can only be worn sparingly. This also reminds me one of my aunt who used to stock up a few bottles when it is on sale.
Top notes: Coconut, Bergamot, Aldehydes, Peach
Middle notes: Tuberose, Ylang-Ylang, Hyacinth, Orris
Base notes: Musk, Sandal, Cedar, Benzoin
Late Afternoon – Polo Ralph Lauren Blue (Floral Jasmine)
This is one of my work scent for summer. It is very refreshing and not so feminine given that it seems like a colourful bouquet by looking at its composition. It is not a loud jasmine scent if you compare this with A la Nuit or Diorissimo. I have sent this to a male friend in the past and he enjoys it too. Perfect to go with my crisp pinstripe shirt and tailored pants.
Top notes : Lotus Flower, Jasmine, Lily-of-the-Valley, Pink Peony, Gardenia
Middle notes : May Rose, Nantucket, Tuberose, Orange Blossom
Base notes : Sandalwood, Musk, Ambrette, Moss, Vetiver
10:00pm – Calvin Klein Eternity Rose Blush (Floral Rose Violet)
I am not a rose girl but this is a keeper because it was a Valentine’s Day gift a few years ago. This is a fruity rose and a very playful one. It smells more like a raspberry scent rose to me. It is perfect those we love berries desserts (raspberries sorbet in particular).
Top notes : Apricot, Pear
Middle notes : Rose, Water Lily, Freesia
Base notes : Musk, Sandalwood, Ambery notes

Answer:
And I wore Stella, a floral-rose violet for the flowerday the 7th, a truly beautiful rose-frag!
For the eve of flowerday the 7th I wore Infiniment Chopard, a floral woody musk. I have never seen anyone else mention this frag here on the board, and it hasn´t even been reviewed in the Directory. Why? It is - IMHO - really, really beautiful. Is it hard to find, or do you others find it a bore?
I have more florals, to wear the 14th!

Answer:
Thanks for the suggestion, Joy - seems like a good idea to me!
Must report that I had started to carry out the assignment on Saturday before I realized BN was undergoing updates. Had it all planned - like Coco- with a wardrobe of floras for the day. Never got any further than the first one - Mimosa Pour Moi - (thank you Shycat!! - a drop dead juice that is a truly fresh powdery mimosa/acacia and lasted so well I didn't want to carry out my original plan but just drift in its beauty all day.
So I did.
New plan for the 14th!!

Answer:
Good to see I didn't miss the Floral S'n'S after all!
Will probably wear CdG Red Series Rose or Carnation since I'm revisiting my numerous CdG scents...
Changed the correct date to the title, too.

Answer:
Thanks Quarry for re-scheduling our s-n-s day. I am planning to wear I Profumi di Firenze Gelsomino del Deserto (Desert Jasmine) and Pierre Guillaume Tubéreuse Couture, but I am open to suggestions!
