Free-for-all Friday

With bonus links to my latest round of scent reviews in the comments.

This post is a free-for-all for people to:

a) post links to perfume-related content they posted elsewhere (on or off DW)
b) talk about anything they want to talk about that isn't big enough for a full post
c) socialize and hang out without worrying about "off topic"
d) or anything else that comes to mind!

The staying-power thing can be incredibly variable based on the perfume's composition and your skin chemistry. Just looking at BPAL, I've had some that would fade away into nothingness after an hour or two and others that were still faintly but discernibly hanging on for more than a day, even after showering. I do tend to favor a lot of basenote-heavy scents, and those do tend to be longer-lasting in general.

*nods*

I've found several that will last through showering and/or overnight. Anubis, my new favorite, is like that on me.
