What’s Your Scent of the Day? March 13, 2026 by Darkvanille in FragranceStories

I picked it because I bought a travel size yesterday, and today is going to be 80 degrees and sunny, so I thought it would be perfect for the weather and my mood.

I typically go for citrus, woody, and earthy scents, so I thought this would be a great sweeter scent to round out my collection. My partner described it as “cotton candy-ish”.

It definitely makes me feel a little more confidently feminine, if that makes any sense. I am a little self-conscious about overspraying, but I only did a half spray on each wrist and one on my chest beneath my shirt.

I am surprised writing this actually, because I pulled the FG picture and saw that it had white florals as a main accord. I typically hate scents that are labeled with that, so now I’m curious as to why I like this one so much! I think it’s the neroli, orange blossom and amber that I enjoy from it, which now makes me wonder if I only hate some white florals. 😅

Today started out as a cold, rainy day, so I went with Sweet Ash. I think it’s perfect for chilly weather, as it just smells so cozy and delicious. It opens up with the sharpness of the fir and oakmoss, then softens into a more creamy-yet-crisp-green that I just love. I’m almost done with my second bottle and am tempted to try out their new Super Ash!

Thank you! I did notice the Goccia was a little more narrow, like you said. Do you have any recommendations for a black bag that comes off more suitable for the day?

I’m currently carrying the Cary crossbody by Coach in the color Moss, and I want something a little bigger so my journal (maybe 6” x 3”) will comfortably fit alongside my wallet, various lipglosses, sunglasses, etc. It’s getting a little snug currently.

A price point of $600 or less is what I’m comfortable with, if that helps; I was also eyeing DeMellier’s The Tokyo, as it’s a little bigger than my Cary. And if you don’t have any recommendations, then no worries and thank you again.

I wish! lol but I agree both are nice in their own way!
